Italian architect and designer Gio Ponti (1891–1979) was the creator of a multifaceted oeuvre. Starting off with ceramics and majolika works at the First International Exhibition of Decorative Arts in Monza, he moved on to furniture and interior design and built structures of all kinds, from small residential dwellings to high rise buildings, schools, and office blocks. One of his great interests was the theme of the home, for which he continually sought to find new solutions. Ponti’s colorful, carefree, elegant spaces were designed to inspire optimism in their occupants.

UN Studio, które założyli holenderscy architekci, Ben van Berkel i Caroline Bos, tworzy przestrzenie zaskakujące swą innowacyjnością. Jednak nie przekształca ono form zapożyczonych z modernizmu, lecz czerpie z bogactwa wyobraźni epoki cyfrowej. Wykorzystywane przez UN Studio, najnowsze technologie komputerowe pozwalają mu zerwać z hierachizacją oraz linearnym cyklem procesu projektowania. Wykreowana przez to biuro architektura to wynik przyjętej strategii projektowania, polegającej na stałych, powtarzających się powrotach do wybranych motywów przewodnich zw. "design models."

Outsider Modernizmu - Hans Scharoun German architect Hans Scharoun (1893-1972) studied and practiced architecture his entire adult life but did not build a major building until 1963 when his impressive Berlin Philharmonie finally came to life. The fact that he stayed in Germany during the Second World War prevented him from realizing grandiose projects and caused him to concentrate more on interiors than exteriors for many years. Nevertheless, Scharoun’s sculptural designs, influenced by the expressionist-utopian circle “Gläserne Kette” of which he was a member, did not go unnoticed and were among the best of his generation.

Praise for "The Complete Works": 'In light of the growing and generalrecognition of Gaudi's work, 150 years after his birth, I ponder thereason for this phenomenon, which is so unusual in the field ofarchitecture. Gaudi did not become a success as a result of the quantityof works completed, since he only directed about 20 important projects.Nor is his success due to the wide geographic diffusion of his buildings,since the majority of them are concentrated in the city of Barcelona.Neither is the architect's fame due to the fact that he was a greatpromoter of his work and character, since he isolated himself fromeverything that could disturb his work. Nor were his proposals acceptedwith enthusiasm by his contemporaries who, in general, were hostiletowards them.Gaudi's secret was probably knowing how to tacklearchitectural creation in a distinct manner, without artistic or technicalprejudices. His knowledge of the trades and the procedures of constructionpermitted him to stand out in his era. He was a virile and overwhelmingindividual, capable of breaking tradition, with fidelity to historicstyles and the determination to please the euphoric bourgeoisie of the1900s. He replanted the essence of architecture and reconsidered tastesand materials, procedures, techniques, systems of calculation, geometricrepertoires etc. Gaudi was a visionary; even though there are people whodare to state it, basing their argument on a hypothetical esotericism ofthe system of symbols that he used. Gaudi was one of the most illustriousminds in the transition from the 19th to the 20th century' - Excerpt fromthe introduction by Daniel Giralt-Miracle, General commissioner of theInternational Year of Gaudi.
