A comprehensive monograph on Frank Lloyd Wright, one of the great masters of modern architecture

McCarter Robert: Frank Lloyd Wright

Frank Lloyd Wright

Over the past three decades, Baylight Properties have been working in collaboration with some of the finest British architects to develop a series of award-winning housing projects, each one marked by a poetic sensitivity and thoughtful use of materials. This book addresses the particular challenges of building housing in the UK during this period, as well as the transformations that have taken place in the regulatory and cultural contexts. It covers collaborations with Tony Fretton, Stephen Taylor, Sergison Bates, Peter Salter, Lifschutz Davidson, Stanton Williams, PIerre d'Avoine and David Kohn, which are discussed in detail, reflecting the unique collaborative approach taken between&nbsp;developer and architect and revealing the aspirations, challenges and compromises that shaped the projects. The projects included are all informed by the extraordinarily rich history of homebuilding in Britain, from the great estates in London, to the patriarchal philanthropists (Port Sunlight, Bournville), to the Georgian and Victorian builder developers, and architect developers of the post-war years.&nbsp;The conclusion flags up best practice for creating successful homes not just houses.&nbsp;&nbsp;

BASICS

In these times of climate change, the effects of climatic conditions on the composition of building materials, components and structures are coming to the fore alongside the use of resource-efficient materials. Of particular importance is the role of thermal insulation in structural physics. Approaches such as reducing heat influx, using design features to prevent interior cooling in low outdoor temperatures, and the choice of materials can reduce the need for energy-intensive air conditioning. This volume looks at various objectives of thermal insulation, grounded in principles of structural physics, materials science, and structural design. <ul> <li> A valuable addition to the Basics series on the theme of structural physics </li> <li> Foundational knowledge for all students of architecture </li> <li> Interdisciplinary view of structural physics, building materials, and structural design </li> </ul>

Bloomsbury Studies in Modern Architecture

Robin Boyd was Australia's foremost architectural writer and critic from the late 1940s until his death in 1971. He was also a talented architect, designing houses, apartments, commercial and university buildings, as well as exhibits to represent Australia overseas. This book situates his architecture and writings within the context of post-WWII global architectural discourse and production. A voice from the margins, yet one intimately engaged with contemporary US and European architecture, Boyd's geographic impartiality also drew architectures from Australia and Japan into global dialogue. He also had a local mission: to build an architecture culture and discourse for his own country. But his acuity in design criticism, widely admired at the time, has been overlooked by subsequent historiography. This book will fill that gap - placing Boyd's work and writing into an international context for the first time. The book is structured into three parts: Dwelling; Discourse and Australia. The first, Dwelling, focuses on Boyd's development of his theoretical ideas based on the laboratory of the single-family house. The second, Discourse, outlines Boyd's fight to find a voice for Australian architecture and create a local pedigree for modernism and finally the third, Australia, focuses on Boyd's commitment to a broader national project and the shaping of Australian identity.

Australian Architect, International Critic

Robin Boyd

The architect is a principal target in all types and levels of construction disputes. This book provides informal and practical advice explained in simple terms so that practicing architects can avoid the pitfalls inherent in the architect's role throughout the construction process. Written by a practicing architect who has acted as expert witness in over 200 cases, the book covers the key areas of vulnerability - design, design co-ordination, late information, inspection and certification. Using detailed case studies of built projects, the author identifies the law, how the problems arose and what remedies were put in place to resolve the issues. This is a book no architect can afford not to read.

Why Architects Get Sued

The Colombian architectural firm ESUS (Esguerra, Saenz, Urdaneta y Samper) played a key role in the development of modern architecture in Colombia during the mid-20th century. Notable for their technical innovation, elaborate language and careful execution, ESUS' buildings also carry broader significance in terms of our understanding of how the international ideals of architectural modernism were adapted to local Latin American contexts. Yet until now there has existed no English-language study of their architecture and legacy. 
Published as part of the Bloomsbury Studies in Modern Architecture series, which brings to light the work of significant yet overlooked modernist architects, this book examines ESUS' work from an array of perspectives including the technological, formal, material, urban, and global, showing in particular how their high-rise concrete buildings contribute to new understandings of the history of concrete architecture. 
Including previously unpublished archival documents, images, and drawings, this is an important new account in the expanding scholarly history of modernism in Latin America.

Bauikonen im Auftrag von Frauen. Der Beitrag von Frauen an der Moderne des 20. Jahrhunderts findet bis heute kaum Beachtung. Noch immer stehen die männlichen Architekturschaffenden im Rampenlicht, während die Errungenschaften ihrer Partnerinnen, Mitarbeiterinnen, Kommilitonen und Auftraggeberinnen wenig erforscht sind. Dieses Buch liefert uns nun einen der fehlenden Bausteine für eine erweiterte Rezeption der Baugeschichte ab 1900 und rückt den Beitrag von Frauen, die zahlreiche ambitionierte Bauaufträge an die junge Architekten-Avantgarde vergeben haben, in ein neues Licht. Die Autorinnen Ingrid de Becque und Kerstin Bussmann präsentieren die Ergebnisse ihrer spannenden Recherche erstmals in dieser Publikation und erzählen die Entstehungsgeschichte vieler internationaler Bauikonen neu. <ul> <li>Erste umfangreiche Publikation über Bauikonen im Auftrag von Frauen. </li> <li>Geschichte der Moderne des 20. Jahrhunderts mit neuem Fokus. </li> <li>Abbildungsreiche, leicht lesbare und zugleich wissenschaftlichen Ansprüchen genügende Dokumentation </li> <li>Erhältlich auf Deutsch und Englisch (Women Building Modernism, ISBN 9783035625813)</li></ul>
