Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le canton de Vaud détient sur son territoire plusieurs références notoires tels la « petite maison» de Le Corbusier à Corseaux, les bains de Bellerive de Marc Piccard à Lausanne ou encore le siège de Nestlé de Jean Tschumi à Vevey. Il recèle également différents ensembles bâtis et objets architecturaux moins manifestes, mais tout aussi intéressants et représentatifs d’une architecture de qualité. A travers la présentation commentée et illustrée d’un corpus d’environ 350 réalisations, réparties par typologies, cet ouvrage vise à mettre en relief l’architecture du canton de Vaud des années 1920 à 1975. En parallèle, il cherche à sensibiliser le grand public et les différents milieux professionnels aux qualités d’un patrimoine encore trop souvent méconnu et qui, jusqu’à aujourd’hui, n’a jamais fait l’objet d’une publication synthétique. Textes de Laurent Chenu, Jean-Claude Girard, Bruno Marchand, Marielle Savoyat, Eric Teysseire et Christine von Büren.

Download or read book Architecture et patrimoine written by Bruno Marchand and published by EPFL Press. This book was released on 2015-06-12 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trois décennies d’engagement au service de la collectivité: c’est en ces termes qu’on pourrait qualifier l’action publique de Jean-Pierre Dresco, envisagée comme le reflet d’une période où toute une génération d’architectes remet progressivement en cause les bienfaits du progrès et de la modernité et envisage son métier essentiellement sous un angle éthique, social et économique. Cet ouvrage collectif s’attache à retracer les principaux moments qui ont balisé sa longue carrière, tout en mettant l’accent sur la période comprise entre 1972 et 1998 où il est architecte cantonal du Canton de Vaud. On assiste alors à l’émergence «d’une ère nouvelle cadrée dans une perspective culturelle», en phase avec les multiples enjeux de l’époque, qui s’avère pourtant moins complexe que l’actuelle, comme il en ressort d’un dialogue entre l’ancien et le présent architecte cantonal. L’ordre de parution des textes suit trois parties complémentaires: les débuts, de la formation universitaire aux premières expériences professionnelles de planification et architecture hospitalières; les multiples champs d’activité novateurs développés dans la fonction publique; enfin, le patrimoine immobilier, de la mise en valeur des cures vaudoises aux réalisations issues de la politique des concours jusqu’aux grands chantiers de restauration. Adepte des vertus de la pluridisciplinarité, Jean-Pierre Dresco a, tout au long de son activité dans la fonction publique, porté un regard d’architecte sur les choses. En effet, intimement convaincu de la nécessité d’instaurer ce qui fait «lien» avec les autres, tant au niveau professionnel qu’avec le public, il n’a pas pour autant perdu l’intérêt pour l’art sous ses formes les plus exigeantes: l’art de bâtir, l’art de restaurer, l’art tout court.

Book Synopsis Parish Churches in the Early Modern World by : Andrew Spicer
Download or read book Parish Churches in the Early Modern World written by Andrew Spicer and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-12-05 with total page 471 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Across Europe, the parish church has stood for centuries at the centre of local communities; it was the focal point of its religious life, the rituals performed there marked the stages of life from the cradle to the grave. Nonetheless the church itself artistically and architecturally stood apart from the parish community. It was often the largest and only stone-built building in a village; it was legally distinct being subject to canon law, as well as consecrated for the celebration of religious rites. The buildings associated with the "cure of souls" were sacred sites or holy places, where humanity interacted with the divine. In spite of the importance of the parish church, these buildings have generally not received the same attention from historians as non-parochial places of worship. This collection of essays redresses this balance and reflects on the parish church across a number of confessions - Catholic, Lutheran, Reformed and Anti-Trinitarian - during the early modern period. Rather than providing a series of case studies of individual buildings, each essay looks at the evolution of parish churches in response to religious reform as well as confessional change and upheaval. They examine aspects of their design and construction; furnishings and material culture; liturgy and the use of the parish church. While these essays range widely across Europe, the volume also considers how religious provision and the parish church were translated into a global context with colonial and commercial expansion in the Americas and Asia. This interdisciplinary volume seeks to identify what was distinctive about the parish church for the congregations that gathered in them for worship and for communities across the early modern world.
Book Synopsis Architecture Competitions and the Production of Culture, Quality and Knowledge by : Jean-Pierre Chupin
Download or read book Architecture Competitions and the Production of Culture, Quality and Knowledge written by Jean-Pierre Chupin and published by Potential Architecture Books. This book was released on 2015-01-26 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: [Winner of the 2016 Bronze medal in Architecture, Independent Publisher Book Awards] This book comprises a series of 22 case studies by renowned experts and new scholars in the field of architecture competition research. In 2015, it constitutes the most comprehensive survey of the dynamics behind the definition, organization, judging, archiving and publishing of architectural, landscape and urban design competitions in the world. These richly documented contributions revolve around a few questions that can be summarized in a two-fold critical interrogation: How can design competitions - these historical democratic devices, both praised and dreaded by designers - be considered laboratories for the production of environmental design quality, and, ultimately, for the renewing of culture and knowledge? Includes 340 illustrations, bibliographical references and index of over 200 cited competitions. Keywords: Architecture / International competitions / Architectural judgment / Design thinking / Digital archiving (databases) / Architectural publications / Architectural experimentation / Landscape architecture / Urban studies
Book Synopsis Gabriel Guevrekian by : Hamed Khosravi
Download or read book Gabriel Guevrekian written by Hamed Khosravi and published by Hatje Cantz Verlag. This book was released on 2020-01-01 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Elusive Modernist setzt sich mit der Geschichte der Moderne auseinander und zwar basierend auf dem Vermächtnis eines ihrer Protagonisten, Gabriel Guevrekian (ca. 1900–1970). Der in Istanbul geborene Guevrekian wuchs in Teheran auf und zog als junger Erwachsener nach Wien, um an der Kunstgewerbeschule Architektur zu studieren. Später arbeitete er mit Oskar Strnad, Josef Hoffmann, Adolf Loos, Henri Sauvage und Robert Mallet-Stevens, und zu seinen bekanntesten Entwürfen gehören der kubistische Garten für die Villa Noailles in Frankreich und zwei Häuser für die Wiener Werkbund-Ausstellung. Mit nicht einmal dreißig Jahren galt Guevrekian als eine der bedeutendsten Persönlichkeiten der europäischen Avantgarde in Paris. Im Laufe der 1930er-Jahre verbrachte er einige Jahre im Iran, wo er öffentliche Bauten entwarf; nach Ende des Zweiten Weltkriegs lehrte er zunächst in Europa und schließlich in Amerika. Seine ganz unterschiedlichen Unternehmungen, sowie die Häuser und Nationalitäten, die er in Asien, Europa und Amerika besaß, führten zu einer Reihe sehr verschieden ausgeprägter Persönlichkeiten. Er füllte durch seine eigene, sehr unmittelbare Auseinandersetzung jede Disziplin mit Bedeutung aus, machte jede Stadt zum Zentrum und jede Ära epochal.

Book Synopsis French Gothic Architecture of the Twelfth and Thirteenth Centuries by : Jean Bony
Download or read book French Gothic Architecture of the Twelfth and Thirteenth Centuries written by Jean Bony and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2023-11-15 with total page 672 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gothic architecture is the most visible and striking product of medieval European civilization. Jean Bony, whose reputation as a medievalist is worldwide, presents its development as an adventure of the imagination allied with radical technical advances—the result of a continuining quest for new ways of handling space and light as well as experimenting with the mechanics of stone construction. He shows how the new architecture came unexpectedly to be invented in the Paris region around 1140 and follows its history—in the great cathedrals of northern France and dozens of other key buildings—to the end of the thirteenth century, when profound changes occurred in the whole fabric of medieval civilization. Rich illustrations, including comprehensive maps, enhance the text and themselves constitute an exceptionally valuable documenation. Despite its evident scholarly intention, this book is not meant for specialists alone, but is conceived as a progressive infiltration into the complexities of history at work, revealing its unpredictable vitality to the uninitiated curious mind.
Book Synopsis Toward an Integral Practice of Architecture by : Richter - Dahl Rocha & Associés
Download or read book Toward an Integral Practice of Architecture written by Richter - Dahl Rocha & Associés and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2014-02-06 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The task of design is to integrate functional requirements, contextual conditions and technological means into the creation of a work of architectural culture. After twenty years of practice, a team involving Ignacio Dahl Rocha, Kenneth Ross, Christian Leibbrand, Manuela Toscan and others of the Lausanne-based Swiss office of Richter ∙ Dahl Rocha & Associés has undertaken to formulate the knowledge behind their architectural practice in a comprehensive manual. Covering the full span from initial design, building typology, technology to the cooperation with other professions in four extensive sections, this book conveys the concepts, methods and details that constitute the tools of state-of-the-art architectural projects. The material used is completely first-hand, with the technical drawings redrawn to this purpose, coming from projects like the much-acclaimed integral renovation of Nestlé Headquarters, from residential, office and healthcare buildings to the groundbreaking Swiss Tech Convention Center on the Lausanne Polytechnic Campus. Written with the editorial collaboration of Denise Bratton, this book sets new standards for architectural publications as tools for design.
Book Synopsis Leandro Valencia Locsin by : Jean-Claude Girard
Download or read book Leandro Valencia Locsin written by Jean-Claude Girard and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 2021-12-06 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The largely unknown oeuvre of the Philippine architect Leandro V. Locsin (1928-1994) embodies the search for identity in the built environment. Having completed his studies, Locsin opened his practice in 1953 in the capital Manila which, after the aerial attacks by the Allied forces for the liberation of the Philippines from Japanese occupation, had been almost completely destroyed. The reconstruction, as well as technical innovations and favorable political and economic conditions, made it possible for him to design a wide range and large number of projects, including hotels, commercial buildings, churches, cultural venues, and public buildings. His work combines inspiration from modernism with local traditions and comprises a total of 245 projects, of which more than half were completed. The book presents a selection of the most important buildings and projects.

Book excerpt: Le quatrième numéro de la revue ouvre ses pages à l'architecture des années 1920-1975, qui reste encore largement incomprise et peu reconnue. Pourtant, de nombreuses constructions de cette période, ensembles locatifs, bâtiments administratifs, édifices scolaires et ouvrages d'art sont dignes de grand intérêt. «Il était temps de se pencher sur cet héritage patrimonial, commente Maurice Lovisa, conservateur cantonal des monuments et sites, et d'identifier les objets méritant d'être préservés. Car si l'acte de protéger formellement un objet bâti est une mesure politique, la préservation à long terme se base sur l'acceptation par les citoyens des monuments reconnus comme tels».
