RENZO PIANO 1966-2005 - XXL
Dostępność: na zamówienie "The array of buildings by Renzo Piano is staggering in scope and comprehensive in the diversity of scale, material, and form. He is truly an architect whose sensibilities represent the widest range of this and earlier centuries." Such was the description of Renzo Piano given by the Pritzker Prize jury citation as they bestowed the prestigious award on him in 1998. Whereas some architects have a signature style, what sets Piano apart is that he seeks simply to apply a coherent set of ideas to new projects in extraordinarily different ways.

Shigeru Ban, Complete Works...
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.
Global Danish Architecture 1
Dostępność: na zamówienie Exclusive to RIBA Bookshops in the UK, this book forcefully, yet politely, announces a feisty newcomer to the international architectural publishing scene. Showing off 54 projects by Danish architects, everything in here is brand new, often so new that they are under construction or at the planning stage. The book breaks down into themed chapters, ranging the gamut from housing to museums to offices.
Global Danish Architecture...
Dostępność: na zamówienie In many books there is the issue of saturation-by-computer-rendering, a phenomenon whereby all buildings take on a similar appearance by virtue of using the same digital zeros and ones to create their character. But in the Danish compilations 2 and 3, thereis a greater effort by many of the firms to use advanced rendering technologies to focus on people and their relationships to buildings, rather than on the buildings as art objects in space. The result is to render a fuller Scandinavian regional identity to the work.

House with a View
Dostępność: na zamówienie The increasing popularity of chalets in alpine and semi-alpine areas makes this publication a timely reminder that traditional housing is constantly evolving. This book, by internationally acclaimed architecture writer Philip Jodidio, examines the myriad forms of the modern chalet. More than just the traditional abode for the Swiss mountain lifestyle or the kitsch restaurant or retail complex, many architects have re-invigorated the chalet to respond to modern aesthetic and sustainability requirements.
Architecture Now! 7
Dostępność: na zamówienie TASCHEN's Architecture Now! 7 features an arching overview of today's architecture, from modern to radically avant-garde.

ARCHITECTURE NOW! HOUSES
Może być wiele charakterystycznych różnic w projektowaniu domów, ale fakt fundamentalnej idei schronienia pozostaje niezmienny od wieków. Życie i śmierć wchodzą w architekturę na przykładzie przestrzeni każdego budynku mieszkalnego, od dawnych jaskiń do wielkich zamków. Dom jest wyznacznikiem jego aktualnej cywilizacji, społeczeństwa, jego zamożności, ale najbardziej - inteligencji. W zależności od architekta i jego klienta, dom może stać się tą architekturą, która zwróci na siebie uwagę setek milionów ludzi, może akceptować regulacje urbanistyczne lub z nimi kontrastować. Może także wzbijać się w powietrze lub być schowanym głeboko w ziemi.

ARCHITECTURE NOW! GREEN...
These days, green is the name of the game. There has never been so much interest in the ecological impact of buildings as there is today. This is not a negligible fact in the struggle to control pollution and in the search for responsible "sustainable" methods of construction.
