'Sens percepcji architektury to nie tylko oczy, ale życie w niej samej' - R. M. Schindler
Hailing from Vienna, Rudolph Michael Schindler (1887-1953), like his colleague Richard Neutra, emigrated to the US and applied his International Style techniques to the movement that would come to be known as California Modernism. Influenced by the work of Frank Lloyd Wright and taking cues from spatial notions found in cubism, he developed a singular style characterized by geometrical shapes, bold lines, and association of materials such as wood and concrete, as seen in his own Hollywood home (built in 1921-22) and the house he designed for P.M. Lovell in Newport Beach (1923-24).

Nowy tytuł z serii "wielcy architekci".
American architect, John Lautner (1911-1994) is responsible for some of the most original buildings of the space age and, indeed, the 20th century. The residences he designed in the Los Angeles area, including the Chemosphere House and the Silvertop, are synonymous with the hopes and dreams of an entire era. Characterized by sweeping rooflines, glass-paneled walls, and steel beams, his buildings displayed a combination of fantasy and minimalism, often integrating water and incorporating surrounding landscapes. Lautner always placed great importance on the relationship between humans, space, and nature.

ANDREA PALLADIO
36,75 zł
Cena
"With this introduction to the work of Andrea Palladio (1508–1580), TASCHEN’s Basic Architecture series shines its spotlight on one of the most influential figures in the history of Western architecture. Palladio’s “Villa Rotonda” in Vicenza became the most famous building of its kind; it influenced many later designs and remains an important source of inspiration for today’s architects. The Palladian style, distinguished by the typical Serlian windows, pillared façades resembling Roman temples, symmetrical floor plans, and elevations, was imported to other European countries and became widely known; in Great Britain it was one the important roots of 17th and 18th century architecture. In the 19th century, American architecture heavily referred to the style, as seen in, for example, Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello home."

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.
