A monograph on the work of San Francisco architect Olle Lundberg, with a foreword by Andy Goldsworthy.

Lundberg Olle: Olle Lundberg

An Architecture of Craft

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;

Lessons from Architect and Developer

Collaborations in Housing Design

?Rick Mather (1937-2013), an American-born, London-based architect, is acknowledged as one of the leading architects of his generation. Yet the relevance of his work for the challenges of our age remains little-known, and his innovative work on environmental efficiencies, adaptive re-use, socially driven design and groundbreaking advances in glass technologies can remain hidden under the stylish surface of his well-published spaces.&nbsp;This is the first comprehensive overview of his work, drawing on Mather's personal archives, the accounts of colleagues, friends, clients and building users as well as the remaining built works, to open up new interpretations of architecture which sometimes puzzled the style-driven culture of the times.&nbsp;The book shows how his best-known projects, such as his major museum adaptations, including the Ashmolean in Oxford, the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts and the Dulwich picture gallery, his dramatic chain of Chinese restaurants, his quiet, economical and environmentally proactive university projects, masterplans like the South Bank and the houses he had been designing from childhood, all interacted in a practice conjouring 'new' spaces from unlikely settings, always optimising landscape, urban and social contexts, and ambitiously demonstrating just how much more we can do with less.

Ancient Wisdom for Modern Readers

An entertaining and enlightening collection of ancient Roman writings about home design and decorationThe idea that our homes can communicate professional as well as personal identities may seem as new as the work-from-home revolution. But it was second nature to the ancient Romans, for whom the home was in many ways the center of public and private life. Roman authors saw infinite practical and symbolic value in houses, and they have much to say about them. How to Make a Home presents some of the best Roman writings on houses-from buying and selling to designing and decorating. Edited and elegantly translated by Marden Fitzpatrick Nichols, How to Make a Home gathers selections by Cicero, Vitruvius, Seneca, and others, with the original Latin or Greek on facing pages. These writings reveal the pleasures and pitfalls of the Roman practice of making one's home a cornerstone of self-expression. While the ideal home enshrined Roman virtues and could make a career, lavish building projects could lead to financial ruin and moral condemnation. These authors memorably describe such travails as deceptive staging, decorators run amok, know-it-all owners, unsupervised contractors, and buyer's remorse. Along the way, they also explain why simplicity is bliss, privacy is for nobodies, a neglected house is a sign of a neglected soul, and much more. A unique and charming introduction to Roman domestic architecture and its cultural significance, How to Make a Home reveals that the obsession with house and home has a long and fascinating history.

'Provocative, elegant, intriguing - Jenkins is a bold, imaginative writer, brilliant at challenging old assumptions and encouraging you to look at British architecture in a new light' Rory StewartThe story of Britain is revealed through its buildings, and yet the language of architecture is a mystery to all but a few. In this enlightening history, spanning castles and cathedrals to factories and railway stations, Jenkins translates the hidden narratives infused in the facades we walk past every day. Britain's history has been formed by its politics, religion and society and these influences can be seen in the architectural styles that have shaped its landscape. From pre-Roman and the Middle Ages, to the Renaissance and the Industrial Revolution, Classical and Gothic styles surged and retreated from favour only to then be challenged by a new player: Modernism, a style that reflected the stunning technological advances of the second half of the twentieth century. In this narrative history, Simon Jenkins - the bestselling champion of our national heritage - introduces us to the singular, eccentric and sometimes rather ordinary characters who shaped Britain. Jenkins teaches readers to see the world anew, demystifying the elitist language of architecture so that we can all appreciate the buildings around us.

The Berlin Tenement and the City

The first major biography on artist Louise Bourgeois brings the life and work of an iconic twentieth-century artist into sharp focus &nbsp; Louise Bourgeois (1911–2010) was one of the most important artists of the twentieth century. She is known for a body of work that spans sculpture, painting, and printmaking but eludes any aesthetic classification. Her life and art were so intertwined that it is often difficult to tell them apart. In her own words: “Sculpture is the body. My body is the sculpture.” &nbsp; Marie-Laure Bernadac’s biography of Bourgeois traces the career of a great artist, her training, and her influences, as it tells the story of an exceptional woman’s life. Featuring personal photographs as well as reproductions of her work, this landmark publication is the first major biography to draw on the artist’s unpublished personal archives, including diaries, correspondence, and psychoanalytic writings, as well as the many interviews she gave and the reminiscences of those who knew her. Bernadac elucidates Bourgeois’s friendships and rivalries with other major figures, including sculptor Louise Nevelson and Museum of Modern Art director Alfred H. Barr Jr. She also draws on Bourgeois’s well-known fascination with psychoanalysis to explore the deeply autobiographical nature of her artwork. This erudite and keenly insightful biography pays tribute to the talent of the artist and the complexity of the person.

Knife-Woman

Through text and full-color illustrations, uncovers the lives and times of the unruly Vorticists, whose innovative abstract artworks shattered early twentieth-century conventions. The Vorticists, a rebellious cohort of young artists in early twentieth-century England, defied the conventions of the art world with their distinctive abstract creations. Despite the brevity of their existence, from 1911 to 1914, their startling innovations left an indelible mark on English art history. In this book James King explores the personalities and lives of these colorful individuals, capturing the tumultuous environment in which they thrived. The narrative presents biographies of the group's members, such as Jessica Dismorr, Wyndham Lewis, William Roberts, Helen Saunders, and Edward Wadsworth--"our little gang," as Ezra Pound called them--highlighting personal conflicts and providing a concise, highly readable history of the movement. This book is ideal for art enthusiasts, historians, and anyone intrigued by avant-garde movements of the early twentieth century.
