Roche Forum Buonas
For more than 20 years Andi Scheitlin and Marc Syfrig have worked consistently to create buildings characterized by simplicity and objectivity. They begin with a logical spacial structure, which can then be adapted to a range of circumstances, and refined by carefully designed facades and selected materials. The end products have a natural, well-grounded aura and succeed in being spacious whatever the environment-elegance born of pragmatism. The Roche Forum on the Buonas peninsular, the focus of this monograph, is the culmination in the work of Scheitlin Syfrig + Partner. A comprehensive work index lists all their projects.
Daniele Marques Wohnhäuser / Houses - 2x2(2)+3
Der 1950 in Aarau geborene Daniele Marques studierte an der ETH in Zürich bei Aldo Rossi und Dolf Schnebli und gründete schon 1977 ein eigenes Architekturbüro in Luzern. Neben seiner Entwurfstätigkeit war er Dozent an verschiedenen Architekturschulen; seit 2000 ist er Professor an der Technischen Universität Graz. Die vorliegende Monografie analysiert eingehend fünf Wohnhäuser, die in den letzten fünf Jahren realisiert wurden. "Die Reduktion, welche die Architektur von Daniele Marques - wenigstens in diesen Häusern - bestimmt, erweist sich als Verfahren, den Dingen Intensität zu verschaffen: indem sie den Augenblick hinausschiebt, in dem sie in bestimmten Bedeutungen einrasten." (Martin Steinmann)

MAA at Work
Since the beginning of the 1980s the architecture scene in French-speaking Switzerland has undergone a process of drastic rejuvenation while constantly extending its range of influence. In its vibrancy it is producing works of high quality. Among the works from this circle are those presented in this book of meier + associés architectes (maa) from Geneva, which with persistency and patience has been producing a wide spectrum of impressive work since 1988. maa draws on contemporary influences from German-speaking Switzerland as well as from the international arena in their work. The range of projects includes buildings for living, health, culture and education as well as engineering projects. maa can look back on a long series of publications and exhibitions which document the consistency of their work. This book focuses on the latest series of projects and provides a direct insight into the considerations of the maa work process.

Beyond Architecture
Dominique Perrault ist fasziniert vom Wechselspiel zwischen gebautem und leerem Raum, Architektur heiAt fA1/4r ihn immer auch Miteinbezug der Absenz von Strukturen. So ist eine der Grundideen seiner BibliothA]que nationale de France die Positionierung der vier groAen TA1/4rme: Sie markieren ein riesiges Volumen, das nur aus Luft und Himmel besteht. FA1/4r die heutige urbane Landschaft, die kaum mehr echte FreirAume fA1/4r die Menschen A1/4brig lAsst, mAchte Perrault mit seiner Architektur diese LebensqualitAt zurA1/4ckgewinnen. Dieser Katalog der Architekturgalerie Luzern dokumentiert seine Stadtplanungen fA1/4r Caen, Nantes, Bordeaux, Tremblay und den Hafen von Yokohama sowie neuere Projekte. Zu seinen bekanntesten Bauten gehAren die Ingenieurschule in Marne-la-VallA(c)e, das "HAtel industriel Berlier" sowie die Radsport- und Schwimmhallen in Berlin. 1993 erhielt Dominique Perrault den Grand prix national da ~architecture. Seit 1994 ist er Mitglied des Rats fA1/4r Stadtplanung der Stadt Salzburg.
Herzog & de Meuron
More than any of their contemporaries, Swiss architects Jacques Herzog and Pierre de Meuron are challenging the boundaries between architecture and art. Natural History explores that challenge, examining how the work of this formidable pair has drawn upon the art of both past and present, and brought architecture into dialogue with the art of our time. Echoing an encyclopedia, this publication reflects the natural history museum structure of the exhibition which it accompanies, organized by the Canadian Centre for Architecture. Models and projects by Herzog & de Meuron, as well as by other artists, are structured around six thematic portfolios that suggest an evolutionary history of the architects' work: Appropriation & Reconstruction, Transformation & Alienation, Stacking & Compression, Imprints & Moulds, Interlocking Spaces, and Beauty & Atmosphere. Each section is introduced with a statement from Herzog, and more than 20 artists, scholars, and architects have contributed essays, including Carrie Asman, Georges Didi-Huberman, Kurt W. Forster, Boris Groys, Ulrike Meyer Stump, Peggy Phelan, Thomas Ruff, Rebecca Schneider, Adolf Max Vogt, and Jeff Wall.
