Trade Paperback. Etat : Used - Very Good. The profile and standing of the architectural profession is undergoing a transformation. Competition from civil engineers and integrated construction companies is on the increase and the market segments are becoming narrower. Buildings alone are insufficient advertising. It has become vitally important for architects to exploit the previously neglected fields of public relations, marketing, and branding in order to define, present and convey the quality and range of architectural services they offer. The purpose of this handbook is to introduce architects to those fields of marketing and communication design which are particularly relevant to their profession, to help them promote their services more creatively, develop marketing strategies for their everyday needs, and use communication and media more professionally. It presents numerous examples, solutions and strategies and demonstrates how architects can use them to personal advantage. Very nice clean, tight copy free of any marks.…

"For more than 20 years, Jean-Paul Viguier has been one of the few French architects to work extensively beyond the boundaries of Europe. Besides numerous buildings in France, he has realized projects in Asia and in the United States. Viguier is particularly interested in the urban perspective and has been involved in a number of town development projects. In Bandar Nusajaya, close to Malaysia's border with Singapore, he was responsible for designing an entirely new town for 650 000 inhabitants.This volume covers the last ten years of Viguier's work, documenting sixteen buildings and projects. Some of the most notable are the Andre Citroën Park in Paris, the French Pavilion at Expo 92 in Seville, the Franco-Chinese Center at Tong Ji University in Shanghai, and the Sofitel Hotel in Chicago.Philip Jodidio has been editor in chief of the French arts journal Connaissance des Arts, based in Paris and is a highly respected author on contemporary architecture."

Hardcover. Etat : Near Fine. No Jacket. 1st Edition. xiii, 1 leaf, 314 pp; 3 illus. Original cloth. Near Fine, without dust jacket (as issued). New price: US$69.95. Einstein Studies Volume 10. 'This volume offers a selection of the best contributions by Russian scholars--historians and philosophers of science--to the Einstein Studies industry, broadly construed. Most of the papers included here were first published in Russian in the 'Einshteinovskiy Sbornik' series (Einstein Studies), the first of its kind, and initiated in 1966 by Nobel Prize winner Igor Tamm. From 1966-1990, fourteen volumes of the 'Sbornik' were published by Nauka, the chief academic publisher in the former Soviet Union. The book explores such topics as the historical and foundational issues in general relativity and relativistic cosmology, Einstein's contributions to quantum theory of radiation, and the rise of Dirac's quantum electrodynamics. The volume also includes a detailed description of the physics colloquium Einstein established and coordinated in 1912-1914 in Zurich. The contributors draw extensively on documentation previously unavailable to most scholars. Thus the materials from various Russian archives shed new light on the famous exchange (regarding the first evolutionary cosmological models) between Einstein and Aleksandr Friedmann in the early 1920s and on the role of Boris Podolsky and Vladimir Fock in the emergence of quantum electrodynamics. The little- known correspondence between Einstein and a famous German pilot Paul Ehrhardt suggests that, during World War I, Einstein was involved with aero- and hydrodynamics and thought about ways of improving airfoil design. Other articles discuss new approaches to important questions in the foundations of general relativity and cosmology. Historians, philosophers, and sociologists of science should be prepared to find much new and unexpected material in this engaging volume presenting the best of the recent Russian scholarship in the field. The book will be accessible to the general reader as well' (Birkhäuser Web site).

Hardcover. Etat : Used - Very Good. In Arlesheim bei Basel haben die Architekten Klaus Schuldt und Andreas Scheiwiller funf zweigeschossige Stadtvillen auf einem gemeinsamen Grundstuck errichtet. Nicht zufallig erinnert ihr minimalistisches Ausseres an Typologien, die Ludwig Mies van der Rohe in den zwanziger Jahren entwickelt hat. Doch nicht nur in der Variation architektonischer Elemente, auch in der Anordnung dieser stadtischen Hauser auf einem gemeinsamen Grundstuck in landlicher Umgebung zeigt 'Ensemble Habitat' ein so hochentwickeltes Gleichgewicht von Individualitat und Gemeinsamkeit, von Vielfalt und Einfachheit, dass diese Wohnsiedlung zu Recht als ein Modellfall betrachtet werden kann.…

Hardcover. Etat : Used - Like New. The buildings of Helmut Jahn, Werner Sobek and Matthias Schuler represent a symbiotic collaboration between architecture, engineering and building technology. This innovative team has taken up the challenge of turning optimum technical solutions into intelligent and resource-saving constructions, creating internationally acclaimed architecture of the very highest technical and aesthetical quality: 'Modern buildings make the highest demands of technology. And it is not the architect who fulfils them but the engineer' (Helmut Jahn) This volume documents in detail a large number of recent projects in Europe, the USA and Asia by Jahn, Sobek and Schuler including the European Union Headquarters in Charlemagne, the Sony Centre in Berlin, office buildings for the Deutsche Post in Bonn, Shanghai International Expo Centre, Bishopsgate (London), MANN (Chicago), New Bangkok International Airport, Illinois Institute of Technology Campus Center, and Shenzhen Convention and Exhibit Center.…
