Floor Plan Manual Housing
Revised edition of the reference work The Floor Plan Manual Housing has for decades been a seminal work in the field of architecture. In its 5th, revised and expanded edition, approximately 160 international housing projects built after 1945 are documented and analyzed. The focus is on exemplary and transferrable projects, and on innovative and trendsetting concepts. The systematic representation of all projects allows the reader to compare and evaluate various floor plans – and to be inspired by the wealth of ideas and strategies for one’s own design work. The introductory theoretical and historical essays have been newly written or updated, and offer a structured overview of the residential housing typology and its development. Fifth revised edition with new projects and contributions With upgraded visual appearance and a new key color Access to the content is facilitated by various index functions

Progress in Littorinid and Muricid Biology
Littoral gastropods of the families Littorinidae and Muricidae are well studied compared to most marine taxa, yet there remain many basic problems concerning their taxonomy, ecology and evolutionary biology. In other words, we know these snails well enough to realize just how little we really know about them. This awareness prompted the First European Meeting on Littorinid Biology held at the British Museum in London on 26th November 1986, and the discussion continued through the Second Meeting on Littorinid Biology, held at the Tjarno Marine Biological Laboratory, Sweden, from 4th to 8th July 1988. During the Tjiirno meeting, it was agreed to have a third meeting at Dale, Pembroke shire, U....

Basics Design and Living
Am Anfang des Architekturstudiums steht oft Orientierungslosigkeit: Was ist wirklich wichtig? Wie gelange ich zu einer Entwurfsidee? Wie stelle ich sie dar und wie setze ich sie konstruktiv um? Die Grundlagenreihe BASICS bietet in überschaubaren Einzelbänden und thematischen Kompendien didaktisch aufgebaute Einführungen und präzise Erklärungen, die die wichtigsten Inhalte eines Themas Schritt für Schritt erarbeiten. Auf die Bedürfnisse der Studierenden zugeschnitten, deckt die Reihe die wichtigsten Themenblöcke ab: Entwerfen, Darstellungsgrundlagen, Konstruktion, Berufspraxis, Haustechnik, Landschaftsarchitektur und Städtebau. „Nichts ist selbstverständlich, nichts so schwierig wie es scheint und alles erklärbar – das vermittelt die Serie.“ Die Zeichenhilfe / DBZ

A City's Architecture
When considering the successful design of cities, the focus tends to be on famous examples such as Paris or Rome, with equally successful but smaller and more remote examples being ignored. In addition, the more diffuse patterns of settlement of the north and western parts of Europe are hardly considered at all in comparison to the tightly formed urban centres of the Mediterranean. However, the diffuse town/region is typical of our time, whatever the location. By analysing the development of a successful small city of ancient foundation which grew from a diffuse long settled and dense landscape, then demonstrated a slow growth as a tight urban form before an early adoption of the designed la...
Louis I. Kahn's Jewish Architecture
In 1961, famed architect Louis I. Kahn (1901-1974) received a commission to design a new synagogue. His client was one of the oldest Sephardic Orthodox congregations in the United States: Philadelphia's Mikveh Israel. Due to the loss of financial backing, Kahn's plans were never realized. Nevertheless, the haunting and imaginative schemes for Mikveh Israel remain among Kahn's most revered designs. Susan G. Solomon uses Kahn's designs for Mikveh Israel as a lens through which to examine the transformation of the American synagogue from 1955 to 1970. She shows how Kahn wrestled with issues that challenged postwar Jewish institutions and evaluates his creative attempts to bridge modernism and Judaism. She argues that Kahn provided a fresh paradigm for synagogues, one that offered innovations in planning, decoration, and the incorporation of light and nature into building design.
