The most beautiful hidden tiles of the city, the head of the serial killer Lisbon preserved in formalin, the Kabbalistic principles of the south portal of the Jeronimos Monastery or the theory of the fifth Portuguese empire of which we find so many traces in the geography of the city, charming forgotten dead ends, the outstanding panoptic architecture of a former hospital, the impressive wax masks from the Dermatology Museum, a secret passage at the hotel Avenida Palace, the mysterious abbey below Palacio Foz, the reason why the coat of arms of Portugal is inclined at 17 degrees on the facade of the Rossio station...
﻿Far from the usual crowds and cliches, Lisbon still keeps well-hidden treasures that it reveals only to the inhabitants and the travellers who like to think outside the box.

The City Through the Eyes of Its Artists

The Manchester Art Book

"This book explores the home as a distinct site of artistic practice. Using examples from across Europe and the Anglophone world between the mid-20th century and the present, each chapter considers the different circumstances for working at home, the impact on the creative lives of the artists, their identities as artists and on the work itself, and how, sometimes, these were projected and promoted through photographs and the media. The book comprises full-length chapters by artists, architects, art and design historians, each of whom bring different perspectives to the issues, interleaved with short interviews with artists to enrich and broaden the debates. At a time when individual relationships to home environments have been radically altered, The Artist at Home considers why some artists in previous decades either needed to or chose to work from home, producing work of vitality and integrity. It is essential reading for researchers and students working across the visual arts, sociology, cultural geography, and art history, and for those interested in artistic creation"--

Artists have worked from home for many reasons, including care duties, financial or political constraints, or availability and proximity to others.

From the ‘home studios’ of Charles and Ray Eames, to the different photographic representations of Robert Rauschenberg’s studio, this book explores the home as a distinct site of artistic practice, and the traditions and developments of the home studio as concept and space throughout the 20th and into the 21st century.

Using examples from across Europe and the Anglophone world between the mid-20th century and the present, each chapter considers the different circumstances for working at home, the impact on the creative lives of the artists, their identities as artists and on the work itself, and how, sometimes, these were projected and promoted through photographs and the media. Key themes include the gendered and performative aspects of women practising ‘at home’, collaborative studio communities of the 1970s – 90s including the appropriation of abandoned spaces in East London, and the effects of Covid on artistic practices and family life within the spaces of ‘home’. The book comprises full-length chapters by artists, architects, art and design historians, each of whom bring different perspectives to the issues, interwoven with short interviews with artists to enrich and broaden the debates.
 
At a time when individual relationships to home environments have been radically altered, The Artist at Home considers why some artists in previous decades either needed to or chose to work from home, producing work of vitality and integrity. Tracing this long tradition into the present, the book will provide a deeper understanding of how the home studio has affected the practices and identity of artists working in different countries, and in different circumstances, from the mid-20th century to the present.

Secret Montreal

Sacred Sites nimmt uns mit auf eine Reise durch die Geschichte der sakralen Kunst und Architektur und erforscht die unzähligen Möglichkeiten, wie Menschen ihrer Umgebung profunde und dauerhafte Bedeutung geben. Von unserer vielleicht ältesten spirituellen Praktik, der Verehrung des Mutterleibs mit dem Körper als Tempel, bis hin zum Glauben an imaginäre Welten bereisen wir die weiten Landschaften des Mystischen, der Religion und der Fantasie. 
 
 Wir versammeln uns zur Andacht, umkreisen das Lagerfeuer, verneigen uns vor dem Waldaltar und preisen im Tempel die von uns gewählten Gottheiten. Durch Pilgerreisen bahnen wir unauslöschliche Pfade, auf denen wir unseren meditativen Weg über Kontinente hinweg gehen, und immer neue Generationen von Füßen betreten diesen heiligen Boden. Durch unsere Hingabe an den Geist entwerfen wir neue Welten - wilde, phantasievolle Oden an das, was uns heilig ist: goldene, in den Fels gehauene Tempel, riesige, aus Sand und Erde geformte Spiralen, stille, in bewaldeten Hainen versteckte Heiligtümer. Wir bemalen Höhlenwände, markieren den Weg mit Felsmalereien, legen zur Ehrerbietung im Kerzenlicht am Schrein Rosen nieder. 
 
 
 
 Langsam, Stein für Stein, einer kosmischen, sakralen Geometrie und Architektur folgend, errichten wir Monumente für unsere Götter. Diese verborgenen Muster finden sich in den geheimnisvollen, hoch aufragenden Pyramiden, die übverall auf der Welt und in einer erstaunlichen Vielzahl von Kulturen zu finden sind; in den marmornen Heiligtümern, die für die griechischen und römischen Göttinnen erbaut wurden; in den windgepeitschten Bergklöstern des alten Asiens und in den Felsenwohnungen der Ureinwohner des amerikanischen Südwestens.
 
 
 
 Natur, Kunst, Schönheit - das sind die gemeinsamen Elemente, die sowohl an den Orten zu finden sind, die von unseren Vorfahren als heilig angesehen wurden, als auch in der Vielzahl von Umgebungen, in denen wir modernen Menschen danach streben, uns mit dem Ursprung und mit uns selbst zu verbinden. Der fünfte Band der Library of Esoterica zeichnet den Weg von schroffen Steintempeln zu transzendenten Werken der modernen Architektur nach und würdigt die kollektive Geschichte von Räumen, die durch menschliche Verehrung heilig geworden sind.

Design Research in Architecture

Perry Kulper and Nat Chard work with conditions of uncertainty, developing a contingent architecture that provokes and absorbs the unforeseen as well as the more predictable relationships into which architecture can enter. In mainstream practice and research there is an emphasis on achieving a certain outcome. Those who wish to have a building made make a prediction - what they want to take place - while the architect attempts to make that prediction come true. In Kulper and Chard's work the outcome is unknown- they have developed their own working and research practices to take this into account. In different ways, they both use the act of making drawings as a way of engaging with uncertain conditions and enrolling a range of incomplete relationships. By acting on these sorts of relations they are breaking new ground by taking up the unpredictable, a marginal area relative to the ordained territories claimed for architectural discussions. Without the need or desire for a single resolved project they work in parallel, Kulper in a basement in Ann Arbor, Michigan and Chard from his attic in Winnipeg, Manitoba. The work of one is contaminated by the arrival of a new drawing or reference from the other, while the reflection on the exchanged material comes from the other person's position rather than confirming an agreed target. This condition is heighted by an unspoken policy of exchanging work with very little commentary so that any disturbance provided by these reflections is sincere and without contrivance. While Kulper and Chard have established rigor in their respective research methods, their collaboration disrupts the stability that such discipline provides. It is a collaboration that provides the sort of disturbances that bring a helpful and real uncertainty to the process of design. Proposing architecture for uncertain conditions touches many paradoxes and the work plays with paradox to nurture uncertainty - as another source of disturbance. The work also

Over three decades, Dhaka-based architecture firm Kashef Chowdhury / URBANA has produced an astonishing collection of works of divergent scales, typologies, and contexts located in one of the most meteorologically challenging regions in the world. A hospital introduced into an economy decimated by rising oceans, a shelter against cyclones in Bangladesh's southern coastal region, and architectural interventions in one of the world's densest metropolitan areas: Kashef Chowdhury / URBANA's designs are incisive, critical responses to varied issues and urgencies rooted in the belief that architecture must be a reflection of, and sympathetic to, increasingly fragile ecological conditions. 
 Meditations in Entropy is the first comprehensive book on the work of Kashef Chowdhury / URBANA. It features 16 of the firm's designs in detail through photographs by acclaimed architectural photographer Hélène Binet as well as numerous plans, drawings, sketches, and other images. Perceptive essays are contributed by eminent critics and historians, Kenneth Frampton, Robert McCarter, and William J.R. Curtis. A conversation between Chowdhury, Swiss architect Niklaus Graber, and distinguished architectural historian Philip Ursprung, further analyzing URBANA's unique approach, rounds off this volume.

“The changing climate is no longer debatable in Bangladesh, it is this country’s unfeigned, monstrous reality.” Kashef Chowdhury

Meditations in Entropy

A selection of stunning, logic defying buildings – twisted, contorted, turned, curved, choppy, bubbled – showcasing how creative architecture and design can be. This photographic collection will take you on a journey through some of the world's most stunningly unusual and imaginative buildings, from the terracotta-pink bubble palaces of southern France to the mind-bendingly warped houses of Poland. You'll discover structures shaped like dogs, shoes, and picnic baskets—each one a testament to the playful possibilities of architecture. From private homes to national libraries, towering churches inspired by mountains and glaciers, and architectural marvels spanning from Bilbao to Beijing, these buildings are united by a spirit of adventure and an unconventional approach to design. Each structure in this collection challenges traditional ideas of form and function, celebrating creativity and pushing the boundaries of what architecture can be.
