100 CONTEMPORARY ARCHITECTS...
100 Contemporary Wood...
Not so very long ago, some might have considered wood a material of the past, long since replaced by more modern components such as concrete and steel. The truth is radically different. Bolstered by new manufacturing techniques and ecological benefits, wood has seen a fabulous resurgence in contemporary construction. This double-volume survey explores how architects around the world have created and invented with this elementary material. Featuring follies, very large buildings, and ambitious urban renewal schemes, it celebrates the diverse deployment of wood by architects around the world.
100 HOUSES FOR 100 ARCHITECTS
Największym wyzwaniem podczas projektowania domów jest zachowanie odpowiedniej równowagi między estetyką a indywidualnymi wymaganiami użytkowników. Choć ważne jest utrzymanie i wdrożenie wizji i stylu architekta, odbiorca-klient musi czuć się tu jak u siebie. Szczególnie ciekawe zatem wydaje się prześledzenie właśnie tych domów, które architekci tworzą sami dla siebie. Przyjmując wówczas zasadę, że domy są odzwiercieldeniem osobowości mieszkańców, domy architektów zdają się pełnić funkcję swoistej autobiografii. Lokalizacja, rozplanowanie, styl, oświetlenie, wystrój wnętrza, meble-każdy szczegół nadaje barwę danej historii.
1000 Chairs
Chairs displayed on their own as pure form An overview of the 20th century More than any other piece of furniture, the chair has been subjected to the wildest dreams of the designers. The particular curve of a backrest, or the twist of a leg, the angle of a seat or the color of the entire artifact all reflect the stylistic consciousness of each era. From Gerrit Rietveld and Alvar Aalto to Verner Panton to Eva Zeisel, from Art Nouveau to International Style, from Pop Art to Postmodernism, the phenomenon of the chair is so complex that it requires a reference work as comprehensive as this to do it full justice. They are all here: Thonet’s bentwood chairs and Hoffmann’s sitting-machines, Marcel Breuer’s Wassily chair and Ron Arad’s avant-garde armchairs.

All-American ADS 1900 -1919
Dostępność: na zamówienie A far cry from the aggressive ads we`ve become used to, American print advertisements from the first two decades of the 20th century were almost shockingly pleasant. Intricately designed and beautifully illustrated, often in the art nouveau style popular at the time, four-color, full-page magazine advertisements were welcome respites from the bland, text-filled pages among which they appeared. Sales pitches were earnest and friendly; beer, for example, was billed as "The Evening Glass of Cheer" and toothpaste was described as "Delicious Ribbon Dental Cream"—perhaps not the catchiest slogans, but they were on to something.
ALVAR AALTO
A compact overview of one of the world's greatest architects "Modern architecture does not mean using immature new materials; the main thing is to work with materials towards a more human line." — Alvar Aalto Finnish architect Alvar Aalto (1898–1976) was strongly influenced by both the landscape of his native country, as well as the political struggle over Finland's place within European culture. After early neoclassical buildings, Aalto turned to ideas based on Functionalism, subsequently moving toward more organic structures, with brick and wood replacing plaster and steel. In addition to designing buildings, furniture, lamps, and glass objects with his wife Aino, he painted and was an avid traveler.

Jako jedyny Ando zdobył cztery najbardziej prestiżowe, architektoniczne nagrody: Pritzkera, Carlsberga, Praemium Imperiale oraz Kyoto Prize. Ten jeden z najwybitniejszych, żyjących architektów, łącząc wpływy tradycji japońskiej z duchem modernizmu dopracował się unikalnej estetyki swych budynków, w których łączył beton, drewno, wodę, światło, siłę przestrzeni oraz przyrody.
