URBAN SPACES: ENVIRONMENTS...
This collection of outstanding projects for public spaces is an excellent overview of current trends in urban planning; new forms of social existence have led to an increased interest in the definition of urban space. Our cities have already crossed the dividing line between space to inhabit and habitable space and, at present, it is difficult to conceive of a good urban development plan without an equally good plan of the public space involved.

VERTICAL GARDENS
Dostępność:na zamowienie Vertical gardens are an exciting means of bringing life and greenery to a bleak courtyard, a grey city street or a cold modern building.

SUSTAINABLE URBAN LANDSCAPES
The organization of public space raises many challenges. Its very nature of being on public display makes urbanism one of the fields of architecture that is most open to debate and controversy. Urban spaces should not only strive for a balance betweeen solid and void in the urban fabric, but they must also be highly functional. All architecture stems from the need to offer answers and solutions to specific problems and demands; these answer and solutions are then integrated into a generally predefined environment with various limitations.

Dostępność: na zamówienie Trzecia edycja urbanistycznej analizy FARMAX autorstwa biura MVRDV - Winy Maas, Jacob van Rijs, Richard Koek. Vast areas of the Netherlands and other states seem to be filling up with a suburban 'matter' of low cost housing, low rent offices, warehouses and other low density elements. How are we to cope with this matter that is turning our environments into one 'sea of mediocrity', one vast 'greyness', an equation of difference and individualism? Is it possible to reconsider this situation by carrying density to extremes and ruffling the texture with inserts or polarities? This book examines the possibilities of these extremes.
