[.en] Which knowledge is to be trusted? How do we reconnect with materials? Is humankind still the “measure of all things”? In a time of crisis for the traditional educational canon and knowledge systems, the works of students taught by Josef Albers, László Moholy-Nagy, Paul Klee, Wassily Kandinsky, Gunta Stölzl and Oskar Schlemmer illustrate their many-faceted exploratory movements towards creative expression in art and design. They are testimonials to the discrete and polyphonic realisations of the given tasks. They chronicle a constant flow between investigation and design: learning is materialised in form and Gestalt. In their range, responsiveness and open-endedness the works by the Bauhaus students offer insights into the dual process of unlearning and rediscovering their own creative potentials. The publication takes up the tradition of guest critiques, updated for the present day. International pedagogues, curators and designers study a selection of works and examine their contemporary relevance. Published to coincide with the centenary of the Bauhaus in 2019, this is a companion book for the Festival Schule FUNDAMENTAL at the Bauhaus Dessau.

[.es] Los proyectos de los estudiantes del curso preliminar en la Escuela de Diseño Bauhaus Dessau son un documento único del proceso de aprendizaje. Son evidencia de los enfoques independientes y múltiples aplicados al trabajo de “traducir” las asignaciones particulares establecidas por los maestros de Bauhaus. No solo refutan la idea del curso preliminar que ahora se ha canonizado en los relatos históricos de la Bauhaus, sino que también ofrecen perspectivas, en su variedad y final abierto, en el proceso dual de adquirir conocimiento y hacer nuevos descubrimientos. El libro retoma la tradición del crítico público invitado y lo traduce al contexto actual. Los educadores y diseñadores internacionales examinan una selección de trabajos que se originan en los diferentes cursos impartidos por los maestros de Bauhaus. En los paneles de visualización en el lector, los trabajos históricos de los estudiantes son examinados críticamente por los autores y participantes del festival, que aplican una perspectiva moderna para explorar su relevancia pedagógica y contemporánea. El libro se publica en 2019, el año del centenario de la Bauhaus, junto con el festival Schule FUNDAMENTAL en la Bauhaus Dessau, del 20 al 24 de marzo de 2019.

[.en] At the peak of the 1968/69 students' riots at American Universities, Robert Venturi and Denise Scott Brown, together with Steven Izenour, pursued their Design and Research Studio on the topic of Las Vegas at Yale School of Architecture. The results of this were condensed into the book Learning from Las Vegas that became a classic almost instantly upon its first publication in 1972. The treatise excited the 1970s architecture world and has remained influential to architects, teachers and theoreticians to the present day.

 

Some forty years later, Eyes that Saw: Architecture after Las Vegas offers a richly illustrated collection of essays by renowned scholars of art and architectural history, eminent architects, and artists, investigating Learning from Las Vegas and its heritage from various perspectives. Each chapter builds on the knowledge of the radical influence it had on architecture and urban design, visual art, and even on history more generally. Published alongside are documents from the Venturi, Scott Brown & Associates Archive at the University of Pennsylvania, as well as an illustrated chronology of the resonance in international media following the publication of Learning from Las Vegas in 1972.

[.es] Since the introduction of steel as a building material in the early twentieth century, its superior performance has challenged conventional wisdom about construction, enabling designs of surprising lightness and span. Steel offered the opportunity to significantly expand buildings vertically and thus emerged as a symbol of the conflict between technological progress and the architectural ideal. More recently, the use of exposed steel elements in modern architecture ushered in a rediscovery of buildings' metamorphoses. Building Additions in Steel looks at the largely ignored topic of steel additions in architecture and engineering, documenting an ambitious, interdisciplinary research project by architects, engineers, teachers, and students at the Zurich University of Applied Sciences, Institute of Constructive Design. The book offers basic theoretical and technical information on a selection of outstanding steel additions alongside more than 100 illustrations, including plans and photographs.

[.en] The buildings of the past were constructed with readily available and local materials, such as stone, wood, or handmade bricks. Architects in the modern era, however, can choose from an ever increasing number of new materials, each one allowing for different advances in design. And yet the traditional materials have never been entirely supplanted; they still form an important part of the architectural range and are still used by architects the world over. The humble brick, for example, has remained a constant throughout the history of architecture, as has timber with its flexibility and warm tones. But today such elements can be used in conjunction with newer materials to highlight their natural beauty in many different ways: creating a stunning metal facade, wrapping a building with a cool, sleek stone finish, designing a wall with an eye-catching interesting texture, or adding depth or warmth to an internal design. Traditional metals are also finding new use, being employed to coat a structure in a light metal skin that reflects the sunlight, or embedded onto a building to add interest and texture. This book journeys through a curated selection of stunning examples from across the world, showcasing how each material is creatively used over a diverse range of building types and styles, and illustrating the myriad possibilities and forms available to the modern architect who chooses to rework these age-old materials into a brand-new decorative yet functional form.

[.en] Interweaving architecture, philosophy and cultural history, Materials and Meaning in Architecture develops a rich and multi-dimensional exploration of materials and materiality, in an age when architectural practice seems otherwise preoccupied with image and visual representation.

Arguing that architecture is primarily experienced by the whole body, rather than chiefly with the eyes, this broad-ranging study shows how the most engaging built works are as tactile as they are sensuous, communicating directly with the bodily senses, especially touch. It explores the theme of 'material imagination' and the power of establishing 'place identity' in an architect's work, to consider the enduring expressive possibilities of material use in architecture.

The book's chapters can be dipped into, each individual chapter providing close readings of built works by selected modern masters (Scarpa, Zumthor, Williams and Tsien), insights into key texts and theories (Ruskin, Loos, Bachelard), or short cultural histories of materials (wood, brick, concrete, steel, and glass). And yet, taken together, the chapters build to a powerful book-length argument about how meaning accrues to materials through time, and about the need to reinsert the bodily experience of materiality into architectural design. It is thus also, in part, a manifesto: arguing for architecture to act as a bulwark against the tide of an increasingly depersonalised built environment.

With insights for a wide range of readers, ranging from students through to researchers and professional designers, Materials and Meaning in Architecture will cause theorists to rethink their assumptions and designers to see new potential for their projects.

[.en] ‘Architecture through Drawing’ examines how drawing – as both action and object – encapsulates complex ideas relating to culture, technology, space and the built environment. Bringing together an array of beautiful and rarely seen drawings dating from the sixteenth century to the present day, all representing different geographical locations, techniques, methodologies and purposes, the book defines a new field for the subject of the drawing in architecture. It reveals the motives for architectural drawing beyond the requirement to document the processes that underpin the realisation of the architectural object. This book asks, fundamentally, whether drawings can illuminate new interpretations of architectural experimentation. Examples range from initial sketches by architects to analytical and construction drawings, perspectives and schematics, collage and more complex presentations and paintings often carried out in association with others.

Dialogues include Fabrizio Ballabio on Filippo Juvarra’s Ottoboni Theatre; Desley Luscombe on Ludwig Mies van der Rohe; Mark Dorrian on Michael Webb; Nicholas Olsberg on Victorian architects William Butterfield, Norman Shaw and GE Street; Charles Rice on James Gowan; Laurent Stalder on perspective in postwar housing; Helen Thomas on the covers of San Rocco; John Macarthur on clouds; Markus Lähteenmaäki on Superstudio; and Erik Wegerhoff on the Viennese Auto-Expander. The volume is rounded off with an epilogue, ‘The Limits of Drawing’, by Adrian Forty and Sophie Read.

[.en] This book presents a curated selection of Balkrishna Doshi’s exceptional writings since the 1950s, with some published here for the first time. The collection of 15 lectures, articles and essays is richly illustrated with more than 50 of Doshi’s personal hand-drawn sketches. Balkrishna Doshi (born 1927 in Pune, India) played a pivotal role in shaping of postcolonial architecture in India. He is a pioneer in addressing crucial issues of social housing and urbanization in India. Doshi influenced the development of Indian architecture significantly through his teaching and lecturing activities and played a major role in the development of Ahmedabad into a center of Indian architectural education. This anthology assembles a selection of his writings, such as lectures, articles and essays. Doshi, who worked for Le Corbusier in Paris for six years in the 1950s, has also always sought contacts with Western architects, for example by promoting the work of Louis Kahn in India. Doshi is a practitioner of architecture for over 70 years, has received numerous awards and he has been awarded the Pritzker Architecture Prize in 2018.

[.en] As people make considered choices about their own lives and deaths, cremation has become an increasingly popular option in Europe, representing a recent but accelerating change in funerary practices. What do these spaces actually look like? What role does architecture play in these rituals? Considering precisely these questions, the authors of ‘Goodbye Architecture’ embarked on a unique tour of European architecture. For the first time, the spaces and practices of cremation―the sites of some of our deepest desires and fears about life and death―receive serious architectural consideration. A wide range of facilities are documented in this volume with extensive illustrations and analyses, providing a glimpse of an essential architecture often hidden in plain sight.

[.en] ‘Arkís Architects’ is an Icelandic architecture studio based in Reykjavík. Their Nordic humanist architecture is characterized by local conditions and international influences, and their focus is on creating sustainable design firmly rooted in the Icelandic tradition and landscape. Founded in 1997, the studio is one of the largest architecture firms in Iceland, and has created significant works both in Iceland and abroad. Arkís strives to create architecture that stems from and resonates with the magnificent Icelandic landscape. This means that their buildings help tying things together, rather than stand out as individual objects. In Arkís buildings, there is thus a clear link with Nordic tradition in terms of them being determined by a combination of context and function. They base their work on the affordances of the sites and design their buildings in accordance with the brief.

This book presents a selection of their most important projects, such as Reykjavík University, Apotek Hotel, and Snæfellsstofa Visitor Centre. It also includes texts by Sigríður Magnúsdóttir, Atli Magnus Seelow and Livio Dimitriu, as well as an interview with representatives of the studio by the editor Tomas Lauri.

[.en] Physical models have been, and continue to be used by engineers when faced with unprecedented challenges, when engineering science has been non-existent or inadequate, and in any other situation when the engineer has needed to raise their confidence in a design proposal to a sufficient level to begin construction. For this reason, models have mostly been used by designers and constructors of highly innovative projects, when previous experience has not been available. The book covers the history of using of physical models in the design and development of civil and building engineering projects including bridges in the mid-18th century, William Fairbairn?s Britannia bridge in the 1840s, the masonry Aswan Dam in the 1890s, concrete dams in the 1920s, thin concrete shell roofs and the dynamic behaviour of tall buildings in earthquakes from the 1930s, tidal flow in estuaries and the acoustics of concert halls from the 1950s, and cable-net and membrane structures in the 1960s. Traditionally, progress in engineering has been attributed to the creation and use of engineering science, the understanding materials properties and the development of new construction methods. The book argues that the use of reduced scale models have played an equally important part in the development of civil and building engineering. However, like the history of engineering design itself, this crucial contribution has not been widely reported or celebrated. The book concludes with reviews of the current use of physical models alongside computer models, for example, in boundary layer wind tunnels, room acoustics, seismic engineering, hydrology, and air flow in buildings.

Aquellos que logran ser construidos y resistir son verdaderos supervivientes de una especie rara y vigorosa que crece en lugares de oportunidad, abriéndose paso entre las malas hierbas de la especulación. En este Catálogo sobre el arte de mezclar usos a+t research group rescata ’50 edificios híbridos’, diseñados entre finales del siglo XIX y comienzos del XXI. Cada uno de ellos está analizado en sección, con sus funciones a la vista, y cuenta una historia estimulante. 50 HYBRID BUILDINGS es una obra destinada a estudiantes, profesores y arquitectos que combina historia, diseño y representación gráfica y desmonta prejuicios tipológicos y programáticos.

[.en] Hybrid buildings are urban artefacts which are often characterised by their mixed-use role in the city. The ones that manage to get built and endure are true survivors of a rare and vigorous category that flourishes in locations of opportunity. This volume presents 50 of these hybrid buildings, designed from the 19th century to the present, as a catalogue of types without any specific typology. Each project is drawn in section, revealing both its functions and a fascinating narrative about how it came to be, as well as its place in the urban context. The publication demonstrates how buildings which insist on mixing uses and users can more naturally incorporate complexity and indeterminacy.

La colonización urbana de un territorio complejo", que defendió y acreditó en la Universidad de Navarra, bajo la dirección del profesor José María Ordeig.

En su tesis, Jesús Ramón Tejada nos hace partícipes de una pregunta nada baladí: hasta qué punto han sido los paradigmas urbanísticos o los condicionantes geográficos y topográficos los que han tenido más incidencia en la forma de crecimiento urbano en los diferentes casos de la expansión urbana de San Sebastián. La respuesta la podemos ir descubriendo a lo largo de las páginas de esta publicación que profundiza en la expansión de la ciudad de San Sebastián a lo largo de la segunda mitad del siglo XX, analizando los sucesivos desarrollos urbanos, el ensanche de Amara; la extensión hacia el este, en Bidebieta y Altza; el modelo urbano en la zona del Antiguo, en Lorea; la colonización de las partes altas de la ciudad, en Ayete. Y ya en momentos más recientes, la ocupación hacia el oeste de las colinas de Berio; de la zona de lbaeta, Errotaburu, la extensión del barrio del Antiguo y hacia el sur, la ocupación de las marismas de Riberas de Loyola.

Esta expansión viene marcada por dos planes urbanísticos, el de 1962 y el de 1995, de los que habla en detalle para continuar profundizando, en su análisis de la evolución urbanística de la capital de Gipuzkoa, en el diálogo entre la ciudad y el territorio, en la dualidad de influencias. ¿Quién ha influido en quién?

Marisol Garmendia: “Es un trabajo muy interesante tanto para el urbanista porque le muestra cómo San Sebastián ha sabido adaptarse y ocupar de una manera correcta una orografía compleja, como para la ciudadanía a la que ofrece una historia de su ciudad”.

Mañana martes, 30 de octubre, la Diputada de Movilidad y Ordenación del Territorio, la socialista Marisol Garmendia presentará el libro “El desarrollo urbanístico de Donostia-San Sebastián. La colonización urbana de un territorio complejo” junto con su autor Jesús Ramón Tejada Villaverde, Doctor en arquitectura por la UNAV.

La apuesta del departamento de Movilidad y Ordenación del Territorio en esta legislatura por dar a conocer y compartir con la ciudadanía guipuzcoana trabajos académicos, tesis doctorales, reflexiones y estudios de profesionales de prestigio en torno al urbanismo y el planeamiento de Gipuzkoa, sigue dando frutos editoriales interesantes y atractivos como el que se presentará mañana.

“Un trabajo éste de Jesús Tejada, doblemente interesante. Al estudioso y al urbanista le muestra cómo San Sebastián ha sabido adaptarse y ocupar de una manera correcta una orografía compleja, como el mismo título del libro refleja. Y al donostiarra que se acerque con curiosidad ciudadana, le ofrece una historia de su ciudad a lo largo del siglo pasado, pues la historia urbana de una ciudad es fuente y reflejo, al mismo tiempo, de la historia de sus gentes. Le muestra, en definitiva, de qué manera una ciudad es capaz de mantener una idiosincrasia, sin ser una foto fija en la que recrearse melancólicamente, sin cambios ni evolución”, ha afirmado la Diputada de Ordenación del Territorio, Marisol Garmendia.

El libro es fruto de la pasión de un arquitecto por su ciudad. Para el autor hay un elemento configurador del alma donostiarra, que deviene de la arquitectura y del urbanismo donostiarra, que ha sabido conjugar geografía, naturaleza y arquitectura para hacer de San Sebastián una ciudad singular, capaz de hacer que las y los donostiarras se reconozcan en su ciudad, en sus calles, en sus avenidas, en sus espacios públicos y en sus playas y montes, en su urbanismo y en su naturaleza.
