Dostępność: na zamówienie The Planning Guide to Piping Design covers the entire process of planning a plant model project from conceptual to mechanical completion and explains where the piping engineering lead (PEL) operates in the process along with his roles and responsibilities. In the past, piping engineering leads used to receive only on-the-job training to learn the operation of producing a process plant. Over time though, more schools have developed advanced curriculum for piping engineers and designers.
HADID COMPLETE WORKS 1979-2009 Zaha Hadid jest jedną z najbardziej znanych architektek świata. Urodziła się w Bagdadzie, kształciła Anglii, gdzie później powstała jej pracowania. Przez wiele lat, pomimo zdobywanych nagród i przychylności krytyki, nie mogła zrealizować swoich prac. Niektórzy mówili nawet, że są niemożliwe do zrealizowania. W ostatniej dekadzie jednak wiele z nich powstało, m.in.: Centrum Sztuki Współczesnej Rosenthal w Cincinnati, Centrum Naukowe Phaeno w Wolfsburgu w Niemczech, czy budynek BMW w Lipsku. Te śmiałe i futurystyczne projekty przyniosły jej międzynarodową sławę - dziś Hadid należy do elity świata architektury.
Dostępność: na zamówienie Open-minded designs and undefined spaces of radical architecture "Coop Himmelb(l)au is not a color but an idea of creating architecture with fantasy, as buoyant and variable as clouds." So the architecture group itself defines its name and design concept. Beginning with inflated bubbles and interactive installations in the 1960s, the group, consisting of the architects Wolf D. Prix, Helmut Swiczinsky and Michael Holzer, began to create harsh interventions in the urban context under the headline "architecture must burn." The designs of the buildings are like oversized sound boxes, with dancing silhouettes and collapsing lines that are always rushing and echoing.
Shigeru Ban (born Tokyo, 1957) attended SCI-Arc in California and earned his degree at the Cooper Union School of Architecture in New York. Based in Tokyo and Paris, Ban consistently challenges accepted notions of architecture, designing a house without walls, or an exhibition space made from paper tubes and shipping containers. 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.
Pojęcie architektury krajobrazu obejmuje wiele realizacji powstałych na wolnym powietrzu: planowanie otwartej przestrzeni, na lub nawet wewnątrz budynków, projekty na terenie rezydencji lub w naturze, jak również „sztukę ziemi" wykorzystującą surowce naturalne jako dzieło sztuki. Geograficzny i społeczny kontekst uzasadnia różnorodność 1000 projektów z całego świata. Szczególny nacisk położono na realizacje parków i ogrodów, ale publikacja przedstawia również wiele różnych kategorii takich jak: zielone fasady, kamienne ogrody, pomniki i oczka wodne.
1000 X EUROPEAN HOTELS W publikacji znajdują się realizacje: Hotel Imperial in Vienna, Austria Four Seasons Hotel Gresham Palace in Budapest, Węgry Golden Apple Boutique Hotel in Moscow, Rosja Puerta América in Madrid, Hiszpania Hotel Borg in Reykjavík, Islandia Drugi tom cieszącej się popularnością serii „Kolekcja architektury"prezentuje największe i najbardziej pomysłowe europejskie hotele: słynne Grand Hotele z blaskiem i historią, jak również nowe, innowacyjne miejsca zachwycające profesjonalnym designem. Obok sieci hoteli, takich jak Regent, istnieją także nietypowe domy gościnne np. drewniane domy na drzewie.
