Monograph. Architects, authors, and photographers different viewpoints on a dense and complex building in Pariss 20th arrondissement. Located just above the citys eight-lane ring road, this calm block was recently completed by Parisian architecture firms Chartier Dalix and Avenier Cornejo, which combines a kindergarten with 240 studio apartments for young workers in a rapidly changing neighbourhood. The photographer Myr Muratet, who spent several weeks living there, offers us an authentic reportage of the buildings appropriation by its new inhabitants a portrait of what happens once the architects have packed up and gone home. Its users behaviour, habits, and adaptations confirm or subvert the designers intentions. As the building weighs anchor in its neighbourhood, not only does the alchemy of this process resonate in the immediate surroundings, but also further afield, in the wake of individual users destinies. Inquisitive visitor Sebastien Marot sets sail on an urban and architectural cruise, exploring the physical, social, and historical flux that is the undercurrent of this built reality.Chartier Dalix architectes has received various awards, such as the Europe 40 under 40 Award (2012), and the prix de la premiere uvre , awarded by the Moniteur Group (2009) for a sport hall in Meaux.

La piedra natural en la arquitectura moderna es considerada un material sostenible y noble que transforma edificios y viviendas, la mejor opción en durabilidad y ecología. Las casas que a continuación os presentamos estan diseñadas bajo los estandares del bioclimatismo y son consideradas una genialidad en el diseño exterior por la utilizacion y combinacion de los materiales.

Un libro hecho de afectos, sobre todo del apego a los objetos —a determinados objetos— y a sus imágenes. A fin de revisar episodios en los que el arte y la arquitectura se entremezclan con especial intensidad, Enric Llorach acude a la figura del anacronismo como herramienta de análisis. Rescatado por Didi-Huberman, el anacronismo refiere la intrusión de una época en otra, y entre las consecuencias de su puesta en valor se encuentra la legitimación de toda aquella subjetividad que media entre la realidad y su interpretación, entre ellas la memoria y el montaje. Una vez admitido el anacronismo, la verdad como tal —en su acepción racional y autorizada— deja de tener primacía y en su lugar se abre paso una invitación al diálogo.

A case study that analyzes the relationship between ideas and houses, this book focuses on 100 years of housing projects in Mexico: from the space that lies between bedrooms to that of streets and of society itself; from the space that first appears as a graphic representation to its ultimate role in defining our cities.This book questions the common tools used to conceive and represent housing projects. It attempts to collate the discourses of different authors in order to trace the meaning of privacy within shared structures. The global phenomenon of massive urbanization that originated in Latin America manifested itself in Mexico at an unseen scale and has since been a testing ground for novel housing and urban solutions. The geographic, social, and economic diversity of Mexico constitute a prime example of the challenges inherent to meeting individual needs in an increasingly crowded world. The drawings and essays comprise new ways of looking at theories and buildings in order to redefine the connection between housing and the city.

The Clichy-Batignolles stand as a new urban landscape liaison element, an essential urban portal along the peripheric territorial arc, just by the historic city.The site thus becomes an important urban platform, a place of exchange in the relational-spaces web organization of Paris. It shall serve as connection point for the various territorial, urban, environmental, social and cultural scales. The aim of the book comes from the relations that are given between both buildings done on the sustainable Clichy-Batignolles neighborhood in Paris build by Gausa-Raveau actarchitecture & Avenier-Cornejo Architectes. The concept and material display of the book arises because of the visual quakes that present the materiality of the two towers. Finally, the idea of vibration is given between the buildings and the environment.

Emergent processes of formation create intensive, volatile, intricate, complex phenomena. These processes have come to define our contemporary understanding of the nature of becoming, which stands in contrast to established notions of architectural design and authorship. The design research of Roland Snooks is a speculation on the relationship between emergent processes of formation and architectural design intention, and explores the strange specificity of an architecture that is drawn out of this interaction. This research operates within a larger architectural and cultural concern for complex systems and their role in algorithmic design processes..The original methodological territory carved out from this larger milieu is the articulation of a design process in which architectural intention is embedded within emergent processes.

Modern Architecture articulated itself in specific centers of propulsion, revision and critique during the 20th century. The case of Milan is exemplary:terragni anbd Razionalismo, the reconstruction (Ponti, Rogers, Moretti, Viganó, etc..)the Tendenza of Rossi, product design, up to the current research. MCM traces this history from several contributors´points of view.

Architecture in Effect # 2 is a substantial collection of essays emerging from the Swedish research environement of the same name.

In May 2015, Studio Link-Arc completed its most prominent work to date, the China Pavilion for Expo Milano 2015. The project was China´s first free-standing Expo Pavilion outside of its own borders.

Mute Icons challenges fixed aesthetic notions of beauty in architecture as both, disciplinary discourse and a spatial practice within the public realm, by intersecting historic antecedents and present instances within contemporary projects wherein indeterminacy, monolithicity and defamiliarization play a speculative role in constructing withdrawn, irritant and yet engaging architectural images.No longer concerned with narrative excesses or with the "shock and awe" of sensation making; the mute icon becomes intriguing in its deceptive indifference towards context, perplexing in its unmitigated apathy towards the body. Object and building, absolute and unstable, anticipated and strange, manifest and withdrawn, such is the dichotomy of mute icons. Dwelling in the paradox between silence and sign and aiming to debunk a false dichotomy between critical discourse, a pursue of formal novelty and the attainment of social ethics, Mute Icons reaffirms the cultural need and socio-political relevance of the architectural image, suggesting a much-needed resolution to the present but incorrect antagonism between formal innovation, social responsibility and economic austerity. Intersecting relevant historical antecedents and polemic theoretical speculations with original design concepts and provocative representations of P-A-T-T-E-R-N-S recent work, the book aspires to stimulate authentic speculations on the real.

In a city like New York, dominated by regulations and defined by a strong post-crisis development boom, the architect is bound by conventions and prescribed parameters.Today, architecture finds itself trying to balance its moral obligation with a need to achieve codified regulations. In a city like New York, dominated by regulations and defined by a strong post-crisis development boom, the architect is bound by conventions and prescribed parameters. Code, market, and zoning are words as common in the architects vocabulary as context, proportion and light. Consequently, the architects power has been pushed away from the fundamental qualities of living, towards more decoration. In Unboxing New York, ODA investigates these architecture topics to recover the power to design with quality of life as the number one objective..Unboxing New York is a behind-the-scenes examination of the changing shape of New York City since 2010revealing the forces, theories and histories that have transformed the city, studying the common conventions that architects deal with as a result. In a bind-up of five smaller books with a wide variety of short articles, research pieces, and an analysis of key facets of residential projects by ODA, Unboxing New York presents the realities of the profession and lays out an accessible and engaging roadmap to working within a highly regulated large metropolis like New York to create valuable additions to urban life.

At a time when "fake news" is part of our daily cultural lexicon, Made up:Design´s Fictions explores lies, fantasies, and other un-real scenarios as tools of design.

Each contributor in this timely publication offers unique insight on Miralles? practice of architecture as a way of creating positive change in the world.

In defense of a new architectonic logic, Manuel Gausa explores a pioneer decade of decisive experiences in the turn of the millennium.Focusing on the mapping of the contemporary project and city in the turn of the millennium, this book explores the capacity of links between dynamic systems and irregular structures. Manuel Gausa defends a new underlying architectonic logic (spatial-temporal in conception) that has emerged within current culture of the informational age. In accordance with a shared terrain of inquiry, which represents a series of decisive experiences from the past twenty years, this new logic can be considered an advanced ''logic of complexity''.
