    A seductive, stylish, compelling, and authoritative assembly of vanguard small-scale houses that tread very lightly in nature, leading the way for architects, homeowners, and dreamers to rethink ways we can live, reside, and flourish. Architects have sought more and more to integrate residences into their settings minimally disturbing nature, with houses that float on the water or up in the trees. This book reveals 51 designs that bring their residences into nature, even allowing the natural setting to enter the very walls, with priority given to sustainability and carbon footprint. Each of the book's homes is carefully chosen for its innovative and sedutive design, approachable scale, and stunning location, whether cocooned within the earth itself or soaring high amongst the treetops, surrounded by cooling waters, or resisting the desert heat. Considerations of energy consumption can dictate a green roof in some cases, while blending ever more fully into the environment gives the satisfaction of not existing in contradiction with the world, a kind of escape to the original garden, or more precisely, a return to fundamental, incontrovertible values. The book's collection spans the globe--from a remote bay on Bruny Island (Tasmania) to an isolated beach in Nicaragua or cabin perched above a fjord in Norway. Today's architectural vanguard is represented, as well as established firms working at the forefront of twenty-first-century design, such as Tom Kundig of the Seattle practice Olson Kundig and Snøhetta from Oslo. With a wealth of photographs showcasing each house inside and out, plus plans, Houses Natural/Natural Houses offers inspiration--and tranquility.

  • - Architecture in Poetic Territories
    av Philip Jodidio
    781,-

    A look at the most significant architectural and territorial projects by the world-renowned Chilean architect, a leader in the "geopoetic" methodology in architecture. This is the first major book on Zegers, who practices an intensely artistic and ecological form of architecture based on landscapes in which she builds. Working frequently in timber, Zegers reaches unique, sustainable, and recyclable solutions that combine and rescue the traditional work of Chilean carpenters with modern techniques. In an almost metaphysical journey, in which organic forms, curves, diagonals, and verticals are combined, Zegers affirms her rising presence as a force in ecologically minded architecture. The book includes private residences, hotels, and sacred spaces that evoke the geographical magnitude of the Andean landscape. Each project contains poems and sketches made by the architect. In the Soplo (Breath) House, living occurs without imposed spatial hierarchies, in a continuous flow, between interior and exterior. The Tierra Patagonia Hotel, which Zegers associates with the poetic word viento (wind), emerges beside craggy mountains and the glistening Lake Sarmiento at the entrance of the Torres del Paine National Park, with stunning views of the Patagonia wilderness. Zegers proposes a different approach toward architecture in an expressive search intimately related to Chile, its territory, landscape, and traditions. The large format book is specially printed with a fifth color throughout.

    Von allen Baustoffen der Welt ist Backstein einer der meistverbreiteten und langlebigsten. Seine Geschichte lässt sich bis ins Jahr 7500 v. Chr. zurückverfolgen. Gebrannte Ziegelsteine tauchten erstmals 3500 v. Chr. auf. Seither hat sich der zuverlässige Backstein als erstaunlich widerstandsfähig erwiesen und ist bis heute ein Hauptbaumaterial zeitgenössischer Architektur geblieben. Fest verwurzelt in den Traditionen so unterschiedlicher Länder wie China und der Niederlande, ist er preiswert, vielseitig und zudem umweltfreundlich herstellbar. In einer weltweiten Tour de Force zeigt diese Ausgabe die aufregendsten und innovativsten Backsteinbauten der letzten Jahre, von Argentinien bis Neuseeland. Wie alle Architekturbücher von TASCHEN präsentiert sie sowohl neue Talente als auch etablierte Stararchitekten wie Renzo Piano und Peter Zumthor. Die gezeigten Gebäude demonstrieren die vielseitigen Möglichkeiten der Backsteinarchitektur in Kultur-, Wohn-, Freizeit- oder Infrastrukturgebäuden, unter anderem im Tate Modern Switch House in London von Herzog & De Meuron, im Amsterdamer Holocaust Namenmonument von Studio Libeskind und im Maternity Waiting Village der Mass Design Group in Kasungu (Malawi).

    Spanish visionary Santiago Calatrava is renowned around the world as an architect, structural engineer, sculptor, and artist. Famed for bridges as much as buildings, he has made his name with neofuturistic structures that combine deft engineering solutions with dramatic visual impact. From the Athens 2004 Olympic sports complex and the Museum of Tomorrow to the Peace Bridge in Calgary, Alamillo Bridge in Seville, and the Mujer Bridge in Buenos Aires, Calatrava's creations show particular interest in the meeting point of movement and balance. With influences ranging from NASA space design to da Vinci's nature studies, the structures dazzle with a sense of lightness, agility, and aerodynamism, but always with a graceful poise amid their particular surroundings. This compact introduction explores Calatrava's unique aesthetic with key projects from his career, from early breakthroughs to his most recent work. Through buildings of culture, science, faith, and across his many famous bridges, we explore his integration of organic forms and human movements, and a uniquely fluid futurism, soaring towards tomorrow.

    While some architects have a signature style, Renzo Piano seeks to apply coherent ideas to extraordinarily different projects. His buildings impress as much for their individual impact as for their diversity of scale, material, and form. Piano rose to international prominence with his codesign of the Pompidou Center in Paris, described by The New York Times as a building that "turned the architecture world upside down." Since then, he has continued to craft many high-profile cultural spaces, including the Modern Wing of the Art Institute of Chicago; the Morgan Library Renovation and Expansion in New York; and, most recently, the Whitney Museum of American Art, an asymmetric nine-story structure in Manhattan's Meatpacking District with both indoor and outdoor galleries. In New York and London, the Renzo touch has also transformed the skyline with the towers of the New York Times Building and the Shard, the tallest building in the European Union. This essential introduction travels from Osaka, Japan, to Bern, Switzerland, and through many cities, structures, and islands in between, to explore the staggering scope of the Renzo Piano repertoire. From the "inside-out" Pompidou to the airy shells of the Tjibaou Cultural Center in Nouméa, New Caledonia, this is a thrilling journey through the beauty of architecture, where, in Piano's own words, "each time, it is like life starting all over again."

    Zaha Hadid was a revolutionary architect, who for many years built almost nothing, despite winning critical acclaim. Some even said her audacious, futuristic designs were unbuildable. During the latter years of her life, Hadid's daring visions became a reality, bringing a unique new architectural language to cities and structures as varied as the Rosenthal Center for Contemporary Art in Cincinnati, hailed by The New York Times as "the most important new building in America since the Cold War"; the MAXXI Museum in Rome; the Guangzhou Opera House in China; and the London 2012 Olympics Aquatics Centre. At the time of her unexpected death in 2016, Hadid was firmly established among the elite of world architecture, recognized as the first woman to win both the Pritzker Prize for architecture and the RIBA Royal Gold Medal, but above all as a giver of new forms, the first great architect of the noughties. From her early sharply angled buildings to later more fluid architecture that made floors, ceilings, walls, and furniture part of an overall design, this essential introduction presents key examples of Hadid's pioneering practice. She was an artist, as much as an architect, who fought to break the old rules and crafted her own 21st-century universe.

    Until his death at age 104, Oscar Niemeyer (1907-2012) was something of an unstoppable architectural force. Over seven decades of work, he designed approximately 600 buildings, transforming skylines from Bab-Ezzouar, Algeria, to his homeland masterpiece Brasília. Niemeyer's work took the reduced forms of modernism and infused them with free-flowing grace. In place of pared-down starkness, his structures rippled with sinuous and seductive lines. In buildings such as the Niterói Contemporary Art Museum, Edifício Copan, or the Metropolitan Cathedral in Brasília, he brought curvaceousness to the concrete jungle. In the futuristic federal capital of Brasília, he designed almost all public buildings, and thus became integral to the global image of Brazil. With rich illustrations documenting highlights from his prolific career, this book introduces Niemeyer's unique vision and its transformative influence on buildings of business, faith, culture, and the public imagination of Brazil.

    Zaha Hadid (1950 - 2016) was a revolutionary architect. For years, she was widely acclaimed and won numerous prizes despite building practically nothing. Some even said her work was simply impossible to build. Yet, during the latter years of her life, Hadid's daring visions became a reality, bringing a new and unique architectural language to cities and structures such as the Port House in Antwerp, the Al Janoub Stadium near Doha, Qatar, and the spectacular new airport terminal in Beijing. By her untimely death in 2016, Hadid was firmly established among architecture's finest elite, working on projects in Europe, China, the Middle East, and the United States. She was the first female architect to win both the Pritzker Prize for architecture and the prestigious RIBA Royal Gold Medal, with her long-time Partner Patrik Schumacher now the leader of Zaha Hadid Architects and in charge of many new projects. Based on the massive TASCHEN monograph, this book is now available in an accessible edition covering Hadid's complete works, including ongoing projects. With abundant photographs, in-depth sketches, and Hadid's own drawings, the volume traces the evolution of her career, spanning not only her most pioneering buildings but also the furniture and interior designs that were integrated into her unique, and distinctly 21st-century, universe. "A celebration of all that is brave and audacious in her work." -- Australian Financial Review

    Santiago Calatrava is a world-renowned architect, structural engineer, sculptor, and artist. From the Athens 2004 Olympic Sports Complex to the World Trade Center Transportation Hub in Manhattan, he exhibits a remarkable aesthetic and engineering prowess with a simultaneous sensitivity for both the appearance and the anatomy of a structure. With influences ranging from NASA space design to da Vinci's nature studies, Calatrava's creations are at once aerodynamic and organic in their associations. Natural forms and human movements inform a number of his projects, with a particular interest in the meeting point of equilibrium and dynamism. This updated monograph gathers detailed entries, photography, and the original watercolor sketches that set Calatrava aside as a unique creative master. It includes all of Calatrava's original input, as well as new projects such as the Mediopadana Station in Reggio Emilia, Italy, the Museum of Tomorrow in Rio de Janeiro, and recent works like the UAE Pavilion at Expo 2020 in Dubai.

    Across small cottages and lavish villas, beach houses and forest refuges, discover the world's finest crop of new homes. This cutting-edge global digest features such talents as Shigeru Ban and Marcio Kogan alongside up-and-coming names like Aires Mateus, Xu Fu-Min, Vo Trong Nghia, Desai Chia, and Shunri Nishizawa. Here, there are homes in Australia and New Zealand, from China and Vietnam, in the United States and Mexico, and on to less expected places like Ecuador and Costa Rica. The result is a sweeping survey of the contemporary house and a revelation that homes across the globe may have more in common than expected. Among guava trees and abandoned forts in Western India is a sanctuary designed for and by Kamal Malik of Malik Architecture. The House of Three Streams is a sprawling spectacle with high ceilings, verandas, and pavilions, perched atop a ridge overlooking two ravines. A medley of steel, glass, wood, and stone, the house weaves along the contour of the landscape, almost as an extension of the forest. Encina House by Aranguren & Gallegos, an elegant, sloping structure reminiscent of a gazebo, similarly inhabits its surrounding vista. Ensconced in a pine forest north of Madrid, the lower level is embedded in rock and connected to the upper by a natural stone wall. Shinichi Ogawa's Seaside House is an immaculate two-story minimalist marvel in Kanagawa that overlooks the Pacific. Its living area spills onto a cantilevered terrace and infinity pool, almost dissolving into the ocean as one seamless entity. In Vietnam, Shunri Nishizawa's House in Chau Doc exudes tropical sophistication with exposed timber beams, woven bamboo, plants, concrete panels, and inner balconies and terraces. Its corrugated iron panels act as moveable walls and shutters, ushering in views of surrounding rice fields. These homes--along with more than 50 others--are each remarkably distinct in design. They all, however, toe the line between inside and outside, each one symbiotic with its surroundings.

    Autor Philip Jodidio begibt sich auf eine Reise durch die Welt Shigeru Bans. Er erkundet neu eröffnete, mit Spannung erwartete Gebäude, schildert seinen Ausblick auf die Zukunft des Studios Shigeru Ban und schafft damit eine welt- und zeitumspannende Rundschau der Karriere des japanischen Architekten. Diese Monografie lädt Sie ein, die Entwicklung eines Künstlers zu begleiten, der als Garant für Wunderwerke der Architektur gilt, die an Innovation, Eleganz und Sensibilität unübertroffen sind. Neben frühen Werken, in denen Ban Papierröhren als Strukturelemente etablierte, und unverkennbaren Häusern wie dem Curtain Wall House in Tokio stellt der Band ferner Projekte jüngster Zeit vor, darunter der Swatch/Omega Campus in der Schweiz, ein zweistöckiges Penthouse auf dem Dach eines 140 Jahre alten New Yorker Wahrzeichens sowie die Seine Musicale, ein in den Masterplan Jean Nouvels integrierten Konzertsaal auf der Ile Séguin in Frankreich. Bans Werk möchte vor allem verstehen. Wie funktionieren Gebäude? Wie können Abfallmaterialien durch Wiederverwendung aufgewertet werden? Antworten darauf formuliert er als erfinderische Lösungsansätze, wie die Nutzung von Papier als Baumaterial. In all den Jahren seiner Karriere blieb Ban, der schon früh zur Symbolfigur der japanischen Architektur wurde, seiner einzigartigen architektonischen Handschrift treu, die seine Projekte in aller Welt auszeichnen. Ruhm und Ehre hielten den Pritzker-Preisträger jedoch nicht davon ab, sein Talent und seine Kreativität auch Menschen in Not zu widmen. Er entwarf Flüchtlingsunterkünfte in Ruanda und Sri Lanka und ermöglichte mit seiner Papierröhrentechnik den raschen Aufbau von Notunterkünften in den Krisengebieten Fukushimas und der Ukraine. Mit seiner lösungsorientierten, großzügigen und eleganten Herangehensweise prägt Shigeru Ban die humanitäre Architektur und definiert die Grenzen seines Fachs immer wieder neu. Auch erhältlich als Art Edition, limitiert auf 200 Exemplare mit einem signierten Kunstdruck Shigeru Bans und einem maßgefertigten 3D-Lasercut-Cover aus Holz.

    Seit Henry David Thoreau in Walden oder Leben in den Wäldern (1854) die zwei Jahre, zwei Monate und zwei Tage beschrieb, die er in einer Hütte am Walden Pond in Massachusetts verbrachte, ist die moderne Psyche von der Vorstellung des Wohnens an einem Ort der Zuflucht fasziniert. Während unser materielles Dasein und unser Einfluss auf die Umwelt im zurückliegenden Jahrzehnt exponentiell gewachsen sind, haben sich Architekten in aller Welt konkret für die Möglichkeiten einer minimalen, isolierten Bleibe mit geringen Auswirkungen auf die Natur interessiert. Dieser Titel, der üppige Fotografie, zeitgenössische Illustrationen von Marie-Laure Cruschi und aufschlussreichen Text miteinander verbindet, erkundet, wie dieser spezielle Gebäudetyp dem kreativen Denken besondere Möglichkeiten eröffnet. Durch ihren Verzicht auf jegliches Übermaß beschränkt die Hütte das Eindringen in den Raum auf das Lebensnotwendigste, während sie zugleich umweltfreundliche Lösungsansätze in den Vordergrund stellt. Als solcher veranschaulicht die Hütte einige der einfallsreichsten und weitsichtigsten Praktiken zeitgenössischer Baukunst, beschäftigen sich doch Architekten wie Renzo Piano , Terunobu Fujimori , Tom Kundig und viele junge Talente mit solchen Refugien. Die hier vorgestellten Hütten unterstreichen die Vielfalt der Gattung, sowohl hinsichtlich der Nutzung als auch der Geographie. Von einem Künstleratelier an der Küste der englischen Grafschaft Suffolk bis zu Bambusbungalows in Sri Lanka ist dieser Überblick in seiner internationalen Spannweite ebenso spannend wie in der Bandbreite der Abrisse, Kunden und Situationen. Eine Konstante, die sich durch das ganze Werk zieht, sind jedoch der architektonische Einfallsreichtum und ein ansteckendes Gefühl der Nachdenklichkeit und des Miteinanders angesichts der Rückkehr von Menschen zur Natur und zu einem weniger zerstörerischen Daseinsmodell.

    Seine Arbeit gilt zu Recht als außergewöhnlich. Mit einer weltumspannenden Karriere über sechs Jahrzehnte schöpft Norman Foster , einer der einflussreichsten Architekten unserer Zeit, aus dem Vollen: Für ihn gehören kreative Innovation und ein ganzheitlicher Ansatz untrennbar zusammen, wenn es darum geht, architektonische Wahrzeichen zu erschaffen. Der Apple Park im kalifornischen Cupertino, der Berliner Reichstag , der Innenhof des British Museum in London oder der Millau-Viadukt in Frankreich - die mit seinem Architekturbüro Foster + Partners entworfenen Werke beweisen nicht nur erfinderische Modernität, sondern auch Fosters ureigenes "nachhaltiges Konzept zur Gestaltung der gebauten Umwelt" . Erstmals offenbart Foster in einer umfassenden Gesamtschau seltene Einblicke in seinen kreativen Schaffensprozess . Der vielseitig interessierte Architekt schildert seine Arbeitsweise und schlägt den Bogen sowohl von der Kunst zur Architektur als auch von seinen Leidenschaften - beispielsweise für das Fliegen - zu seiner Arbeit. Die XXL-Monografie in zwei Bänden führt uns durch ein Leben voller Originalität und Schaffensdrang. Während das erste Buch Fosters architektonische Arbeit mit mehr als 2000 Fotos und Skizzen aus seinen persönlichen Archiven präsentiert, enthält das zweite neben fast 1000 weiteren Illustrationen acht Essays des Architekten zu den Quellen seiner Inspiration . Diese visuelle Erkundungsreise bringt uns nicht nur die außerordentliche Leistung, sondern auch das Genie Norman Fosters näher, zu dessen Auszeichnungen der Pritzker-Preis 1999, die Goldmedaille für Architektur des American Institute of Architects, die Royal Gold Medal for Architecture sowie die Goldmedaille der French Academy of Architecture gehören. Gemeinsam mit dem Autor und dem Designer schuf Norman Foster mit viel Leidenschaft ein wahres Gesamtkunstwerk . Auch erhältlich als Art Edition, limitiert auf 300 Exemplare. Mit einem signierten Kunstdruck einer Zeichnung des künftigen Innovations- und Begegnungszentrums InnHub La Punt in der Schweiz und einem maßgefertigten, zum Buchständer aufklappbaren Schuber.
