Drawing on the Ineffable

Bloomsbury Studies in Modern Architecture

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Including previously unpublished archival documents, images, and drawings, this is an important new account in the expanding scholarly history of modernism in Latin America.

A visually rich and engaging monograph on the life and works of Thomas Archer, one of the most overlooked architects of the English Baroque. The book will cover some of the most famous buildings and landscapes of the eighteenth century and highlight the skill of an architect who has lain outside of the architectural mainstream for too long.

The Middle Front is the first-ever monograph on La Dallman Architects,&nbsp;a Milwaukee-based firm with offices also in Boston and Miami. Lavishly illustrated, it articulates a profound architectural stance amid the extremes of radical innovation and banal convention. The firm's founding principals, Grace La and James Dallman, explore this middle ground through designs that navigate between avant-garde aesthetics and pragmatic solutions.Their reflective book-born from their formative years and experiences at the Harvard Graduate School of Design and subsequent practice in Milwaukee, Wisconsin-rejects both the spectacle of the avant-garde and the ubiquity of conventional forms. It engages with architecture's potential in a complex world, seeking a balanced, inclusive disciplinary approach. The Middle Frontunfolds through essays and featured projects, demonstrating La Dallman Architects' commitment to a nuanced, contextually responsive architecture that embraces the challenges and opportunities of urban and environmental complexities. It invites a reexamination of architectural practice, advocating for a responsive, thoughtful approach that values depth and connection over mere novelty or tradition.

This workbook accompanies artist Tom Fox’s new book An Artist’s Guide to Drawing Clothed Characters, giving readers space to practise and improve with guidance from the author, or can be studied alone as a hands-on drawing aid.&nbsp; With 200 pages of accessible instructions and figures to draw over on the page, this workbook allows the reader to practise the theory put forth in the main book, while also functioning perfectly as a standalone. The exercises consist of partial references at low opacity, with the figure or geometric mannequin beneath the clothing provided so the reader can concentrate on drawing the clothes only. Additionally, this workbook includes some bonus clothing and pose references from the artist – ones there wasn’t room for in the main book.&nbsp;This and the main title are follow-ups to Tom Fox’s previous book, Anatomy for Artists: Drawing Form &amp; Pose (over 30,000 copies sold to date), with the figure-drawing maestro taking a deep dive into the subjects of clothing and drapery. Using his unique approach of simplified mannequins and dynamic figure sketches, Tom shares his process for improving your figures holistically, understanding fabric physics, and capturing the fold, stretch, and crumple of believable clothing.

A Workbook for Drawing Clothed Characters

Through a series of discussions with practitioners in fields beyond the Humanities, this book explores how key creative writing techniques inspire and inform other disciplines. In turn, this new multidisciplinary view of the mechanics of storytelling sparks new ways of approaching the writing, reading and teaching of fiction in and beyond the writing workshop. A personal voyage of discovery, the book revolves around conversationswith specialists in archaeology, genetics, architecture, medicine, law and botanical science to consider how specific techniques - narrative time, characterisation, fictionalstructures, plotting, point of view and place - inform their work. Through a series of reflections, short fictions, practical exercises and prompts, these case studies then suggest new insights and methods for investigating key writing techniques, which in turn advocate for closer interactions between STEM, the humanities and arts practice. With creative arts subjects increasingly under pressure to justify their significance in contemporary work and life, Jacqueline Yallop makes a case for the re-evaluation of the importance of narrative writing craft in the world beyond personal practiceand student assignment.

Creative Writing Across Disciplines

Fiction in the Field

This book of two halves is at once a gallery of jaw-dropping modern Japanese buildings and an in-depth explanation of how the photographs of them were made. Japanese architecture fans are introduced in this book to the nine photographers who have been instrumental in shaping the way we view the country's spectacular post-war buildings. Through its pages we can 'visit' these astonishing structures through the eyes - and camera lenses - of these remarkable artists. But can documenting buildings in this way ever be entirely neutral? Author and Japanese architecture expert Ari Seligmann examines the post-Second World War evolution of architectural photography in Japan as a vehicle for considering both universal and particular issues in how we view the world around us through images. Through a veritable feast of exquisitely printed pictures, he grapples with the scope of architectural photography, recognising that it is more than making marketing images for architects and magazines, but not quite historical record. Combining photobook, biography, and architectural photo history, the book traces developments in one of the most exciting architectural contexts anywhere in the world. Japanese architecture is globally recognised through the circulation of architectural photographs, but Japanese architectural photographers have had almost no global recognition, until now. Profiled photographers: Yoshio Watanabe (1907-2000) ¿ Chuji Hirayama (1909-2005) ¿ Akio Kawasumi (1923-2007) ¿ Osamu Murai (1928-2016) ¿ Yukio Futagawa (1932-2013) ¿ Tomio Ohashi (1932-2017) ¿ Kiyoshi Takai (1938-) ¿ Shuji Yamada (1939-) ¿ Mistumasa Fujitsuka (1939-)

A Grass Roots Designer’s Guide to Working Abroad

Design Beyond Borders

Learning to draw needn't be complicated or expensive, nor does one need a particularly spectacular subject to draw. In this, his first practical art book, artist Matthew Rice encourages readers to look at and draw the scenes around them - the desk they are sitting at, the view out the window, a bowl of produce from the supermarket. And it is by truly sitting with and engaging with our everyday world that drawing skills can be learnt and strengthened, confidence built, and a new mindful creative activity developed. A bowl of radishes can be a starting point when thinking about shading and form. The view from your kitchen window becomes an exercise in perspective and measuring lines. A bunch of flowers in a vase is the perfect subject to develop your skills in detailed drawing and three-dimensional structure. Little by little, by following the twelve step-by-step exercises in the book, readers will build the skills and techniques to approach drawing any scene with confidence and ease. "To know how to draw, you need to think about how to look, because to draw is to look and report in on what you have seen. As we learn to draw better we also learn to understand better: to analyze, explore and comprehend our world and its inhabitants. The exercise is more than an expression of a desire to decorate, to kill time or amuse. It is in fact a vital and near universal mode of communication that allows us to speak to those with whom we share no other common language." - Matthew Rice

A new monograph on Korea's most important architect, offering an exclusive look at his rarely published houses. Earth Works: Houses by Byoung Cho offers a unique glimpse into the residential buildings of one of Korea's most influential architects. This visually stunning monograph combines photography, plans, drawings, paintings and models to provide an exclusive overview of this rarely published aspect of Byoung's work. Focused entirely around fifteen private and rarely seen residences, the book takes as its starting point some of his earliest projects - Concrete Box House (2004) and Earth House (2009) - which explore the emotional impact of place through low-intervention and minimalist rural structures. At its core, this book aims to intertwine the theoretical underpinnings of land architecture with practical project descriptions, creating a holistic narrative that bridges the conceptual and the concrete. It also explores Korean architecture's enduring concern with establishing a relationship with the land, something which is rooted in the country's distinct terrain and cultural foundations. A number of insightful texts by Byoung compliment this elegant and poetic survey, exploring his architectural influences alongside the ideas of experience, perception and the Korean concepts of mak and bium (imperfection and emptiness).
