Baumschlager-Eberle 2002–2007
Kern des Selbstverständnisses von Baumschlager-Eberle ist es, Architektur als eine ganzheitliche Aufgabe zu betrachten, deren Komplexität erst dann erfüllt ist, wenn ein Gebäude allen Anforderungen, wie konstruktive Intelligenz, Ökologie, Wirtschaftlichkeit und gesellschaftliche Akzeptanz, entspricht. Das Buch trägt diesem Ansatz Rechnung und gliedert sich inhaltlich in drei Teile: In 'Architektur' werden 18 neue, realisierte Projekte des Büros vorgestellt, klassisch, anhand von Bildern, Texten und Plänen. 'Menschen' beleuchtet den Gebrauchsaspekt einiger ausgewählter Bauten und geht der Frage nach deren gesellschaftlicher Akzeptanz nach. 'Ressourcen' überprüft alle in diesem Rahmen vorgestellten Objekte auf ihre Nachhaltigkeit.
My Devoted Viscount
All Miss Sophia Walden has left is her reputation. Unemployed since the school where she taught music abruptly closed, she's found temporary work helping an elderly widow write her memoir. When a runaway former student asks Sophia to help her avoid an unwanted marriage, both of them could be ruined. The last thing Sophia needs is her employer's handsome nephew poking his patrician nose into her secrets. Vincent, Viscount Fairfax, is on his way to Italy. He plans a quick detour to check on his aunt, to dispel the rumors of ghosts roaming his aunt's seaside estate, and then he'll be off again. But he didn't count on his aunt's intriguing new employee, a petite bluestocking who seems to be hidi...
奥地利建筑艺术展
Austrian architects play a significant role in today's world-wide development of a sculptural form of expression. This phenomenon has its roots in similar streams in the past, which belong to a rich cultural heritage from centuries gone by. The short historical background, starting with the comment about the Gothic Stephan's Cathedral in Vienna, acts as an introduction to the subject, followed by examples of the spatial splendour of the Baroque, and a glimpse on the movement of Modernism to the immediate examples of "sculptural architecture" from Austria's past. The main comprehensive part is dedicated to examples of contemporary architecture.
Construction Materials Manual
Eine Übersicht für Architekten, die auch die Bedeutung der Baustoffwahl für die sinnliche Wahrnehmung von Architektur wie Haptik, Geruch, Farbe, Oberflächenstruktur berücksichtigt, gab es bisher nicht. Mit dem Baustoff Atlas wird diese Lücke nun geschlossen. Als ein auf die Interessen von Architekten und Bauingenieuren gleichermassen abgestimmtes Grundlagenwerk wird er alle genannten Betrachtungsebenen vereinen. Dabei werden sowohl grundsätzliche Nachhaltigkeitsfragen wie Lebensdauer, Umweltbelastung und Stoffkreisläufe erörtert als auch Materialinnovationen vorgestellt. Alle wesentlichen herkömmlichen und neuartigen Baustoffe werden hinsichtlich Herstellung, Verarbeitung, Oberflächen, Anschlüssen und Kenndaten umfassend dokumentiert. Internationale Beispiele, deren Erscheinungsbild sich häufig aus jeweils einem Material definiert, veranschaulichen die Anwendung in der Architektur. Der Baustoff Atlas unterstützt damit die tägliche Arbeit von Architekten und Ingenieuren bei der Baustoffauswahl auf eine umfassende, zugleich anschauliche und anregende Weise.
Insights, Outlook
This extraordinary publication presents 122 recent acquisitions to Die Neue Sammlung, Munich, from the years 1990 to 1995: highlights from the areas of decorative arts, industrial design, and graphic design, which have "written the history of design in the 20th century." The present book offers, in addition to a vivid representation of one hundred years of design, insights and background on the planned museums in Munich and Nuremberg, Germany.
Insulating Modernism
What is the best way to consider energy in buildings? For over a century, the building industry has largely focused on ideas of insulation and isolation for its energetic practices. A growing movement of designers claim that other concepts and practices are required for the non-isolated energy systems of architecture. This book describes the history, theory and facts of the mainstream isolation technologies and the emerging alternative design approaches. It is a book on the scientific, material, and design history of building isolation; but more importantly, it is a book on isolated and non-isolated perspectives on energy in architecture. Written by a registered practicing architect with detailed technical knowledge, who is at the same time a researcher and experienced teacher, the aim is to understand the different scientific, architectural and cultural approaches to energy and to promote a non-isolated perspective: a thermodynamically accurate, ecologically powerful, culturally relevant, and architecturally ambitious perspective on energy in architecture.

9 x 9 – A Method of Design
An ideal design is site-specific, which is the only way architecture can create or connect with a specific sense of identity. This requires addressing the structural and local circumstances. This method handbook offers a playful way in which to systematically ascertain a complex framework and use it for your own design. The "9 x 9 method" takes all relevant factors and their alternate interaction into consideration: location, structure, shell, program, and materiality, all which, in a matrix with various intersections, produce exactly 9 "fields of action" for the design. The individual "fields" are not only illustrated visually with meaningful and eidetic pictures, but are also discussed in texts by leading specialists. For this book, the "9 x 9 method" was completely re-worked and redesigned. Authors: Florian Aicher, Jia Beisi, Adam Caruso, Dietmar Eberle, Franziska Hauser, Vittorio Magnago Lampugnani, Michele Lanza, Arno Lederer, Silvain Malfroy, Adrian Meyer, Marcello Nasso, Fritz Neumeyer, András Pálffy, Miroslav Šik, Laurent Stalder, Eberhard Tröger.
