RENZO PIANO 1966-2005 - XXL
Dostępność: na zamówienie "The array of buildings by Renzo Piano is staggering in scope and comprehensive in the diversity of scale, material, and form. He is truly an architect whose sensibilities represent the widest range of this and earlier centuries." Such was the description of Renzo Piano given by the Pritzker Prize jury citation as they bestowed the prestigious award on him in 1998. Whereas some architects have a signature style, what sets Piano apart is that he seeks simply to apply a coherent set of ideas to new projects in extraordinarily different ways.

Shigeru Ban, Complete Works...
Shigeru Ban (born Tokyo, 1957) attended SCI-Arc in California and earned his degree at the Cooper Union School of Architecture in New York.

This monograph, compiled with the architect's collaboration, traces his career and features every built work of Shigeru Ban, showing clearly why he is one of the world's most innovative and significant architects.

Architecture Now! 7
Dostępność: na zamówienie TASCHEN's Architecture Now! 7 features an arching overview of today's architecture, from modern to radically avant-garde. As with previous books in the series, Architecture Now! 7 includes a broad variety of projects from around the world, as well as some works of art that have a direct relation to architecture, from the likes of Giacomo Costa or Shinro Ohtake. It also explores how the recent economic downturn has led to fewer large-scale projects, but has also stimulated creative thinking, as architects find new ways to work imaginatively inside budget constraints. Large-scale works include the futuristic Chinese Central TV Tower in Beijing (OMA) and the Burj Khalifa (SOM)
NEW YORK INTERIORS
Dostępność:na zamowienie It's a classic thing we've all heard: "New York is great to visit, but I wouldn`t want to live there." New Yorkers laugh it off because they know the secret: it's even better when you live there. New York Interiors offers readers the chance to see the Big Apple`s most fabulous pads in all their eccentric splendor. The Hell's Angel who sleeps next to a coffin, the painter who makes art from trash, the woman who's brought Provence to Downtown, the couple who live in the Brooklyn of the 19th century— "typical" New Yorkers` homes are presented alongside those of its glitterati (such as Leo Castelli, Wolfgang Joop, Isabella Rossellini and Steven Spielberg).

ARCHITECTURE NOW! HOUSES
Może być wiele charakterystycznych różnic w projektowaniu domów, ale fakt fundamentalnej idei schronienia pozostaje niezmienny od wieków. Życie i śmierć wchodzą w architekturę na przykładzie przestrzeni każdego budynku mieszkalnego, od dawnych jaskiń do wielkich zamków. Dom jest wyznacznikiem jego aktualnej cywilizacji, społeczeństwa, jego zamożności, ale najbardziej - inteligencji. W zależności od architekta i jego klienta, dom może stać się tą architekturą, która zwróci na siebie uwagę setek milionów ludzi, może akceptować regulacje urbanistyczne lub z nimi kontrastować. Może także wzbijać się w powietrze lub być schowanym głeboko w ziemi.
ARCHITECTURE NOW! GREEN...
These days, green is the name of the game. There has never been so much interest in the ecological impact of buildings as there is today. This is not a negligible fact in the struggle to control pollution and in the search for responsible "sustainable" methods of construction.
