Die Fassade ist die "Haut" eines Geba¿udes. Sie bil- det die Grenze zwischen Innen und Außen, Form und Funktion, zwischen Nutzer und Passanten. Neben funktionalen, konstruktiven, gestalterischen und stadt- ra¿umlichen Aspekten spielen heute Nachhaltigkeits- Parameter eine immer wichtigere Rolle.
Die Villa steht für repräsentative Wohnkultur und gehobenen Lebensstil. Sie ist jedoch mehr als ein großzügiges Wohnhaus mit Grundstück in der Stadt: Die Villa bietet ihren Bewohnern einen "urbanen Landsitz", und vereint das Beste aus Stadt- und Landleben: Repräsentative Architektur und hochwertige Materialien, im Grünen gelegen und doch nah an den urbanen Attraktionen. Es lebt sich ruhig und zurückgezogen, aber dennoch in direkter Verbindung zur Stadt. Für Architekten bietet die Planung oder der Umbau einer Villa die spannende Herausforderung, eine klassische Bauaufgabe neu und zeitgemäß zu interpretieren.

Although convention centers are in high demand, the competition is tough, and new concepts are constantly in demand. Convention centers come in a range of forms, shapes, sizes and contexts. They can form part of a hotel, an airport, a skyscraper, a mountain-chalet or stand completely on their own.
Architecture for rescue services has come a long way in the past decade. Buildings for the police, fire brigades and ambulance stations have lost their often primitive and shed-like appearance and have begun to strive for recognition as an equitable architectural typology since Zaha Hadid s trailblazing Vitra fire station in Weil am Rhein. This certainly is a challenge because there are numerous conditions to be taken into account in terms of functionality and especially security. The examples chosen for this title show an amazing diversity of emergency architecture.
Like in the past the towers of the cathedrals, sky scrapers became the defining features of cityscapes with the advent of the 20th century. Since the turn of the millennium they are again among the most prestigious and coveted architectural challenges. The design freedom of contours and the plastic volume of blobs have long since superseded the purely orthogonal towers of the past. Most current projects are being implemented in the Arab-Asian realm, such as the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, the world's highest building.

Airports today are much more than gateways to cities, countries or continents. They have developed into city-like complexes and multifunctional systems, which while being set up to serve the needs of smoothly running air traffic, at the same time have taken on all the functions of a normal community: sleeping, shopping, work and leisure time and all that increasingly with 24-7 access. After an era of purely functional architecture, the nodal points of air traffic have become one of the most prominent architectural tasks of the present. Drawing on 60 examples, this volume shows the exciting multiplicity of contemporary airport construction and design.
What makes a classic piece of furniture? Which living design is timelessly popular and always contemporary – and why? Aesthetic quality as a function of clarity of design, rigorous color and styling are just as important as the durability of high quality materials and perfect workmanship. And of course, if not more important, is the functionality of this furniture that is right from every standpoint.
