By cutting pre-drawn forms from the books pages, you can construct miniature paper models of a variety of structures and forms that have captured Nishizawas imagination, from traditional Japanese houses and New York City to Eschers endless staircase, recycled towns, nomadic villages and even flying architecture. Each project is printed with background information and thoughts from Nishizawa, plus step-by-step instructions that provide detailed images, also of the finished product.

IABR 2014 - Urban By Nature (English Edition) IABR 2014 ISBN 9789080957268 Acqn 23818 Pb 17x24cm 272pp 120ills 100col 21 Curated by landscape architect Dirk Sijmons, IABR 2014 claims the worlds environmental problems can only be resolved by addressing the problems of the city. Seeking to redefine how we deal with urban challenges by analysing our relationship with nature, it sees the city as an integral part of the urban landscape, a complex system that has become our natural environment. This approach opens possibilities to develop spatial interventions that make use of its metabolism. The work of three IABR project studios is featured, presented alongside essays and information about conferences, lectures and events.

Vacancy Studies - Experiments And Strategic Interventions In Architecture nai010 publishers 2014 ISBN 9789462081468 Acqn 23830 Hb 18x24cm 186pp 120ills 70col 26 'Vacancy Studies' provides the world of architecture with an optimistic perspective on the temporary reuse of vacancy. Bunkers, forts, churches, castles, hospitals, water-towers, post offices, prisons, palaces and airports are vacant. According to RAAAF (Rietveld Architecture-Art-Affordances) these public and government buildings offer enormous potential, the extent of which was visualised by their 'Vacant NL' installation at the 2010 Venice Architecture Biennale. This book introduces the 'strategic interventions' design approach and demonstrates new concepts and experiments.

Besides an essay by the architect regarding his perspective on the relationship between architecture and site, the volume features an illuminating essay by Kengo Kuma examining Chibas design process and material approach.

Interiors. Notes And Figures A + Architecture 2014 ISBN 9782930705064 Acqn 24033 Pb 19x27cm 212pp 180col ills 27.50 Published on the occasion of Belgiums participation in the 14th Venice Architecture Biennale, this volume takes the interior as its subject something that is, in fact, little documented or analysed once the construction of a building is complete. The hypothesis is that a vernacular architectural culture, characterised by the transformations made by occupants, can be observed in a domestic context. Using a photographic survey of domestic interiors throughout Belgium, chosen according to a theoretical sampling method based on geographical, historical and typological criteria, the selection of images reveals the invisible dynamics of our familiar built surroundings.

Undocumented - The Architecture Of Migrant Detention The Architecture Observer 2014 ISBN 9789492058003 Acqn 24043 Pb 17x24cm 112pp 120ills 22.50 Architectural practice requires the integration of often complex technical construction requirements with an equal measure of empathy for the occupants of the spaces we envision. In the deceptively simple pen-and-ink drawings and tiny photographs presented in this book we find technical information and human empathy in tension, an inevitable outcome wherever architecture is called upon to oppress living beings. This slim book does not only contain more detail of the architecture of detention centres than some scholarly works on the architecture of incarceration, but it begins to outline the invisible experience of hidden-away people in hidden-away places.

Intimate Hotel - The Gate Hotel Kaminarimon by Hulic Heibonsha Ltd. 2013 ISBN 9784582544466 Acqn 24101 Pb 18x26cm 144pp 120ills 100col 34.95 Redesigned by Japanese architect Shigeru Uchida, a former office building in the revitalised Asakusa district of Tokyo became the Gate Hotel Kaminarimon, a haven for art, design and creativity. The transformation combines a design aesthetic of subdued elegance with accents of bold, urban vitality, offering splendid city views amidst a backdrop of high-rise towers and the Tokyo Sky Tree. Paintings by acclaimed artist Katsuhiko Hibino hang throughout. In this close reading of architecture and interiors, an intimate portrait of the project as a whole emerges, as Uchida and others identify his integrated approach, something which sets this building apart from its often extravagant context.

Erik Dhont Gypsotheque Architectura & Natura Press 2014 ISBN 9789461400420 Acqn 24094 Pb 19x25cm 70pp 48ills 5col 21 With a balanced portfolio of private, corporate and public commissions, Brussels-based Erik Dhont is in the vanguard of landscape architects active worldwide. Dhonts rigorous alphabet of plaster studies reflects the landscape architects continual process of development, serving as plastic tools in the creative development of spatial concepts. In these studies, he creates an artistic language on the border between sculpture and landscape, a cross-disciplinary conversation that informs his garden designs. In modelling the plaster Dhont questions ways by which the elements that comprise the imagined landscape of the garden are represented.
