Book excerpt: Inspired by the early style of Corbusier and ideas on Mediterranean architecture espoused by the likes of Bernard Rudofsky and Josep Lluís Sert, a younger generation of architects found the perfect conditions to explore the future of the Mediterranean house in Cadaqués?a small fishing village on the Spanish Costa Brava that was also home, or the summer meeting ground, for some of the past century?s greatest artistic figures, including Dalí, Picasso, Miró, and Duchamp.0In this new book, photos from the period show the distinctive style and environment of Cadaqués and 22 homes designed by Federico Correa, Alfonso Milà, José Antonio Coderch, Francesc Joan Barba Corsini, Peter Harnden, Lanfranco Bombelli, Oscar Tusquets, and Lluís Clotet. Edited by Nacho Alegre, it features an introduction by Oscar Tusquets and also tells of the friendships and influences that existed between this group of architects, and how their architecture came to be.

Book excerpt: How to design a world in which we rely less on stuff, and more on people. We're filling up the world with technology and devices, but we've lost sight of an important question: What is this stuff for? What value does it add to our lives? So asks author John Thackara in his new book, In the Bubble: Designing for a Complex World. These are tough questions for the pushers of technology to answer. Our economic system is centered on technology, so it would be no small matter if "tech" ceased to be an end-in-itself in our daily lives. Technology is not going to go away, but the time to discuss the end it will serve is before we deploy it, not after. We need to ask what purpose will be served by the broadband communications, smart materials, wearable computing, and connected appliances that we're unleashing upon the world. We need to ask what impact all this stuff will have on our daily lives. Who will look after it, and how? In the Bubble is about a world based less on stuff and more on people. Thackara describes a transformation that is taking place now—not in a remote science fiction future; it's not about, as he puts it, "the schlock of the new" but about radical innovation already emerging in daily life. We are regaining respect for what people can do that technology can't. In the Bubble describes services designed to help people carry out daily activities in new ways. Many of these services involve technology—ranging from body implants to wide-bodied jets. But objects and systems play a supporting role in a people-centered world. The design focus is on services, not things. And new principles—above all, lightness—inform the way these services are designed and used. At the heart of In the Bubble is a belief, informed by a wealth of real-world examples, that ethics and responsibility can inform design decisions without impeding social and technical innovation.

Download or read book Architecture as Measure written by Neyran Turan and published by Actar. This book was released on 2020 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In light of the current political crisis around climate change, what can architecture possibly contribute towards a new planetary imaginary of our contemporary environment beyond environmentalism and technological determinism? Instead of conceptualizing the idea of the environment as purely natural and in need of protection, as solely a problem that needs to be managed, or merely as the Earth, which limits the scope with a scalar bias, can we speculate on architecture as a measure both to assess and to act upon the world? 'Architecture as Measure' is an elaboration on this question, and on the disciplinary and cultural potentials of such a provocation. It positions climate change as a cultural and political idea that requires a renewed architectural environmental imagination.0The book takes on this task by presenting a set of unconventional collisions between architecture and climate change, which all extrapolate broader concerns of the city, environment, and geography through the lens of specific architectural questions such as form, representation and materiality.

Download or read book Synergetic Stew written by R. Buckminster Fuller and published by Lars Muller Publishers. This book was released on 2020-07 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a surprise gift for his eighty-sixth birthday, Fuller received 'Synergetic Stew': a compilation of cooking recipes contributed by his friends and colleagues, sharing personal anecdotes and humorous recollections of his life, such as a reminiscence about Bucky's somewhat peculiar but enthusiastic love for tea. Scattered throughout the book are enticing texts and poems from Fuller himself. The book is a glimpse into Fuller's life, told by his peers and embedded in nearly a hundred achievable recipes. A few of them are joyful odes towards Fuller's oeuvre, such as Shirley Sharkey's Geodesicandy, the Microbiotic Diet by John Cage, or Amy Edmondson's Allspace-Filling Whole Wheat Bread. In addition to the facsimile, Fuller's grandson Jaime Snyder reflects upon often overlooked facets of Bucky's character, revealed through anecdotes of his relationship with food. Short profiles of all contributors complete the reprint.
