The Visible Origin of Architecture: "I asked architects to send me important images that show the basis of their work. Images that are in their head when they think. Images that show the origin of their architecture. In this book we find 44 individual 'musees imaginaires'. The most unique architects living today each present up to 10 images to explain the autobiographical roots of their oeuvre. The images are explanations, metaphors, foundations, memories and intentions. They are poetic and philosophical avowals. They reveal a personal perspective on thoughts. They show the roots of architecture and expectations concerning projects. Conscious and unconscious. This book has the format of a re...
At Dwell, we're staging a minor revolution. We think that it's possible to live in a house or apartment by a bold modern architect, to own furniture and products that are exceptionally well designed, and still be a regular human being. We think that good design is an integral part of real life. And that real life has been conspicuous by its absence in most design and architecture magazines.

Mobility has long been a defining feature of modern societies, yet remarkably little attention has been paid to the various 'stopping places'_hotels, motels, and the like_that this mobility presupposes. If the paradoxical qualities of fixed places dedicated to facilitating movement have been overlooked by a variety of commentators, film-makers have shown remarkable prescience and consistency in engaging with these 'still points' around which the world is made to turn. Hotels and motels play a central role in a multitude of films, ranging across an immensely wide variety of genres, eras, and national cinemas. Whereas previous film theorists have focused on the movement implied by road movies ...
A lecture about four projects -- three completed buildings and one competition project. Also includes pictures from other projects.
This book presents projects that have been developed since the last comprehensive catalog Valerio Olgiati (first edition published by Verlag der Buchhandlung Walther König, Cologne, 2008). They are planned, built or projects under construction from the period between 2009 and 2017. The order in which the projects appear in the book corresponds to the chronology of the design date. All of the plans in the book are full-scale and are shown with dimensional lines. They are based on precise technical plans and backed with textures. They are detailed and contain all the information necessary to understand a building spatially and functionally.
