Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. A leading Chilean landscape architect elucidates her guiding compositional principles and offers personal reflections on her craftChilean landscape architect Teresa Moller (born 1959) looks back at her most significant projects of the last decade, in this very personal volume containing her reflections on her craft and nature. Reflections in the Landscape is organized around two concepts. The first is dedicated to the fundamental components of her landscape architecture: earth, water, trees, fruits and stone; the second, comprised of sections such as Trails, Signs, Essence and Silence, describes her essential compositional principles. In collaboration with architecture writer and curator Jimena Martignoni, Moller offers her thoughts behind the creation of some of her renowned projects, such as Punte Pite in Chile, a dramatic staircase and footpath that descends to Chiles rocky coast, or Catch the Landscape, a series of travertine blocks that serve as benches along the Venetian waterfront. Also included are projects in China, Italy, Morocco, Germany and more.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. An accessible reader offering case studies of innovative alternatives to expansionist urban housingThis reader takes the following assumption as its basis: the ceaseless expansion of the urban periphery has been detrimental to not only urban populations but also the planet at large, corroding its most valuable and scarce resource, land. Housing proffers redensification as the corrective measure to the failing expansionist approach toward urban planning. Gathered here are case studies of alternative social housing projects from the past centuryall of which incorporate methods of redensification. They span the Weissenhofsiedlung Estate (1927) to architectural experiments in suburban Mexico as recent as 2017.These alternative developments have offered solutions to countries experiencing intense population growth and provided sanctuary for those who have lost their homes in natural disasters. Altogether, the projects evince that the problem of urban housing is inextricably bound with the inception and progression of modernism.

Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. "Gonzalez has lately emerged as one of Miamis most influential young architects." Raul A. Barreneche, the New York TimesSpecializing in the design of museum and gallery spaces, hospitality, commercial retail and residential projects, Miami-based Rene Gonzalez Architects also endeavors to develop solutions to rising sea levels in coastal communities. This volume compiles drawings and photographs of a residence on Prairie Avenue in Miami designed by the firm in 2018. Inspired by red mangrove trees, the dwelling hovers entirely above the ground plane. A lush garden covers most of the site and absorbs enormous quantities of water. Charles Renfro celebrates the building thus: "Is this blown-up modernism, a house made of fragments and gaps, also a new gay architecture? If so, it is but one of the many ways this compact complex house performs, one that in so many ways pulls modernism forward into a brave new world of sensuality, sexuality and lifestyle. Within it, social progress has found a new architecture." Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. Lectures on landscaping, history and ecology from the peerless landscape architect who revolutionized the garden aestheticThe great landscape architect Roberto Burle Marx (190994) revolutionized tropical garden aesthetics for the 20th century, and today his designs for parks and gardens are celebrated across the world. Marxs innovations can be summarized, as author Rossana Vaccarino observes, "in four general design conceptsthe use of native tropical vegetation as a structural element of design, the rupture of symmetrical patterns in the conception of open spaces, the colorful treatment of pavements and the use of free forms in water features."Intangible Heritage presents both Marxs work and teachings, compiling nine of his most seminal lectures written between 1962 and 1983. Illustrated with images of his mosaics and detailed maps, the volume groups Marxs lectures into three thematic sections: in the first, he explores how botanical expeditions, such as his trip to the Amazonas in 1983, informed his thinking about urban landscapes; in the second, Marx traces facets of landscape architecture to their ancestral origins and discusses the role of subjectivity in the profession; in the third, he delves into society's responsibility to protect the environment. The publication also features texts from Marxs collaborators and admirers, including an essay by Jose Tabacow, partner of Marx in his last projects, and conversations with art critic Jacques Leenhardt.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Since 2015, Mexican architect Francisco Pardo has run his own practice in fast-growing and fast changing Mexico City. His projects have reflected how Mexico is transforming the idea of the Latin American city: part ancient, part colonial, part futuristic. His Havre 69 project, created with his partner from architecture firm at103, Julio Amezcua, repurposes a 100-year-old residence for upper-middle-class families into offices, 12 separate residences, a bakery and a restaurant. On the one hand, Pardo exposes large sections of brick and maintains the original tile, while on the other, he builds modernist concrete and glass boxes that frame the original facade. Likewise, the architect's Milan44 project takes an auto-parts store in the warehouse in the Roma neighborhood of Mexico City and creates a vertical urban market that brings the storefront street level onto each level of the structure. The architecture of Francisco Pardo reflects a fresh direction in the vast project of building Latin America into the future. Since 2015, Mexican architect Pardo has run his own practice in fast-growing and fast changing Mexico City. His projects have reflected how Mexico is transforming the idea of the Latin American city: part ancient, part colonial, part futuristic.

Natural, upcycled and economical materials in buildings by Ecuadorian firm Al BordeLess Is All is the motto of Ecuadorian architecture firm Al Borde-founded in 2007 by Pascual Gangotena, David Barragan, Marialuisa Borja and Estevan Benavides. Naming Al Borde one of the top 100 architecture firms in the world in 2019, the editors of Domus wrote: Convinced that the strength of an architectural project lies in the later autonomy of its users, Al Bordes design and decision-making process rely on the involvement of the community in all phases of planning and construction, and the systematic exploration of the local context. The materials they use and the projects they adopt reflect the state of a globalized Ecuador. For example, for their House of the Flying Beds Al Borde refurbished an 18th-century family house by restoring the rammed earth walls, installing tire rubber and recycled glass on the roof and suspending beds above the open-plan, ground-floor living area with eucalyptus trusses, thus maintaining the form of the house but turning the interior into something indubitably modern.

Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. Chronicling the development of an exciting new cultural spaceIn 2014, Mexican architects Javier Sanchez and Aisha Ballesteros, of the firm JSa, were commissioned to build a new museum in Cuernavaca dedicated to the work of artist Juan Soriano and a contemporary art exhibition program. The given site was a walled-off property in the middle of a dense urban neighborhood, a space the architects wanted to give back to the city. Accordingly, JSas Juan Soriano Museum building, a refined concrete structure, takes up only about one quarter of the site: the rest is given over to a large public garden, which functions as a park and passageway for the city as well as a sculpture garden for the museum.This book chronicles the development of the Juan Soriano Museum, from the state-run competition and the winning design submitted by JSa to the construction process and the ways this new cultural space is being used.
