Architecture in Spain

2007 y.
Publisher: —
Description: It might surprise some to hear that Spain has a vibrant culture of contemporary architecture. Delayed by the Spanish Civil War and the ensuing dictatorship under Franco, the emergence of modernity in Spain may have been late in coming, but today`s young architects are making up for lost time in a spectacular way. Original personalities like Cesar Manrique Cabrera marked a move toward the modern in the 1960s, while Richard Bofill`s innovative work in the `70s helped bring Spanish architecture to the world stage. In the 1990s, architects such as Rafael Moneo and Santiago Calatrava began to create the look of contemporary architecture in Spain as we know it today. From a modern interpretation of a bullring to cutting-edge green architecture, the book covers a dizzying variety of architectural innovation. Architects featured: Abalos &, Herreros, Eduardo Arroyo, Santiago Calatrava, Alberto Campo Baeza, Santiago Cirugeda, EMTB - Miralles Tagliabue, Anton Garcia-Abril, Rafael de… [detailed...]

Architecture in the Emirates

Description: The small emirates and states located on the Gulf, at the eastern edge of the Saudi Arabian peninsula, are building new cities in the desert at an astonishing rate, from Bahrain to Doha, and south to the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Comprised of Abu Dhabi, Ajman, Dubai, Fujairah, Ras al-Khaimah, Sharjah, and Umm al-Quwain, the UAE is an oil-and-gas-rich region that has experienced an unparalleled architectural boom in recent years.

Description: The work of Polhemus Savery DaSilva Architects Builders reflects the special qualities of Cape Cod, Martha`s Vineyard, and Nantucket. This is a region of stunning landscapes and water views, crisp ocean-reflected light, classic villages, and abundant opportunities for playful living. Architecture of the Cape Cod Summer presents more than ten years of evocative design and well-crafted construction that is rooted in this fabled place.

The book features twenty-five projects that range from modest to elaborate. Each is an individual creation tailored to its specific location and client. Several additional projects are depicted in a chronology of the firm`s major work. The volume contains an eloquent introduction and text by Michael J.Crosbie, as well as forewords by renowned architects Cesar Pelli… [detailed...]

Architecture of the Nineteenth Century

2003 y.
Publisher: Electa
Description: This is a complete survey of European architecture of the 19th century. In particular, it examines the influence of the cultural trends of the period on the architects` works. The first section deals with the history of 18th-century architecture in France and England, countries where Cartesian-school philosophical speculation and Anglo-Saxon philosophical empiricism wielded a determining influence. After analysing the developments of the classical tradition and its propagation throughout Europe, the book studies in depth the history of architectural movements, comprising neo-Classicism, neo-Renaissance and neo-Gothic architecture. The outstanding, forerunning personalities of this brilliant artistic period who, in the course of the 19th century, offered fecund theoretic and stylistic contributions include Gottfried Semper, John Ruskin and Eugene Viollet-le-Duc.

This volume presents a number of the world?s most dramatic examples of sculptural architecture?structures that transcend rational, utilitarian functionality to capture far more intangible visions, dreams, principles, and emotions. Science and sociology have given modern architects the chance to express themselves in buildings that not only echo their artistic vision, but also stand out as works of art against a backdrop of less-than-extraordinary structures. As a result, the distinct outlines of Wright?s Guggenheim Museum, the Sydney Opera House, Pei?s National Gallery and Piano and Roger?s Centre Pompidou are recognizable as both sculpture and architecture. These and other works by architects such as Le Corbusier, Niemeyer, Libeskind, Watanabe, and Gehry are examined in light of their artistic qualities by critic… [detailed...]
