Architekt Stefan Szyller....
Książka jest poświęcona sylwetce wybitnego warszawskiego architekta Stefana Szyllera. Publikacja ta jest poprawioną i znacznie rozszerzoną - wzbogaconą również o nowy materiał ilustracyjny - wersją dysertacji doktorskiej autorki, opublikowanej w 1995 roku. Twórczość Stefana Szyllera, jednego z najznakomitszych architektów warszawskich przełomu XIX i XX wieku odegrała wielką rolę w kształtowaniu architektury tej epoki. Znaczące były zarówno jego dokonania w zakresie poszukiwań stylu narodowego, jak i jego wkład w kształtowanie krajobrazu architektonicznego Warszawy przełomu wieków. Szyller był też niezwykle aktywnym, choć kontrowersyjnym konserwatorem i restauratorem zabytków polskich.

CHARGED VOID: ARCHITECTURE
Dostępność:na zamowienie Alison and Peter Smithson, founders of Team X and authors of the classic Team X Primer, are among the most influential architects of the postwar decades. Their reevaluation of modernism shifted the focus of architecture and urbanism toward the particularities and uniqueness of human associations, urban patterns, and climatic conditions. Many of their ideas, both social (cluster and human association) and architectural (Brutalism, the nature of materials), profoundly influenced later generations of academics, students, and practitioners. As the social ideals of earlier times become an integral part of the reassessment of the built environment of recent years, the Smithsons continue to gain in significance.
Charles Garnier
Dostępność: na zamówienie Charles Garnier (Paris 1825-1898). The eclectism of this French architect enables him to be placed within the Second Imperial style. His works can be considered as archetypal examples of Neo-classical Renaissance and baroque architecture. His greatest undertaking was the Opera House in Paris (1861-1875), highly relevant for the subsequent development of architecture in the nineteenth century. The overall effect is harmonious but different styles and decorations are combined together through sculptures, frescos and marble.
Charles Rennie Mackintosh
Dostępność: na zamówienie Charles Rennie Mackintosh (Glasgow 1868-Londres 1928), Scottish architect and designer, had a great influence on twentieth century architecture and decoration. He graduated from the Glasgow School of Art but soon abandoned the affected Victorian style to embrace one based on simplicity and geometrical shapes. The project for the Glasgow School of Art (1897-1899) established his reputation. This rationalist building juxtaposes long, delicate curves against its rectangular structure; it was extended by adding a library (1907-1909).

Dominique Perrault...
Dostępność: na zamówienie Dominique Perrault surged onto the architectural scene and into the public eye at the end of the 1980s with the building of the National Library of France. He undertook this colossal project after a promising early career during which he built a number of ambitious constructions (including the ESIEE, the Berlier Industrial Hotel and the SAGEP factory).
Donald Judd Architecture
Dostępność: na zamówienie One of the leading representatives of Minimalism, Donald Judd's "specific objects," made of steel, wood, aluminum, and Plexiglass, undertook a radical and revolutionary analysis and redefinition of sculpture as it exists in space. Somewhat less familiar are Judd's numerous architectural and furniture designs, works which are closely related in formal terms to his ubiquitous art objects but which much more successfully reflect his concerns with utility.
Eduardo Souto de Moura
Eduardo Souto de Moura (b 1952) has long been one of Portugal's leading architects but gained wider international recognition when he won the Pritzker Architecture Prize in 2011. Born in Porto, he collaborated with the much-respected Alvaro Siza from 1974 to 1979 before establishing his own architectural studio in 1980. Since then, he has completed more than 100 projects ranging from private houses such as his Casa do Cinema for film director Manoel de Oliveira in Porto (2002) to larger projects such as the stadium in Braga (2004), the venue for the 2004 European Championships.
