Dwell
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.

In contemporary architecture, the changes resulting from the introduction ofriteria of bioclimatics and sustainability are becoming increasinglymportant, which means conceiving constructions for the future in terms ofhe physical durability of the building, and also of the planet itself andts energy resources.;This volume is divided into two sections, based in twoifferent trends. "From Ecology to Architecture" that pursues the evolutionf ecological theory to be reflected in specific architectural intentions,nd "From Technology to Nature", which includes technological advances intohe thermal efficiency of buildings, the possibilities of solar energy, andhe bioclimatic design of facades, one of the hottest topics in therchitectural and building world in the year 2000.
A Theory of Minimalism
The explosion of minimalism into the worlds of visual arts, music and literature in the mid-to-late twentieth century presents one of the most radical and decisive revolutions in aesthetic history. Detested by some, embraced by others, minimalism's influence was immediate, pervasive and lasting, significantly changing the way we hear music, see art and read literature. In The Theory of Minimalism, Marc Botha offers the first general theory of minimalism, equally applicable to literature, the visual arts and music. He argues that minimalism establishes an aesthetic paradigm for rethinking realism in genuinely radical terms. In dialogue with thinkers from both the analytic and continental trad...
Concrete Toronto
In the sixties, architecture fell in love with concrete. Architecture has since shifted its fondness to glass and steel, and concrete buildings have fallen out of favor and into disrepair. But they represent an exciting era of faith in architecture and technical innovation that has yet to be documented.Concrete Torontoacts as a guidebook to the city's extensive concrete heritage. Architects, journalists, professors, concrete experts, and even the original architects use a wealth of new and archival photos, drawings, interviews, articles, and case studies to celebrate Toronto's concrete past.
Gestaltungselement Minimalismus und Multimedia - Interaktionen einer Stilrichtung mit den gegenwärtigen
Forschungsarbeit aus dem Jahr 2007 im Fachbereich Kunst - Computerkunst, Medienkunst, Note: 1, SAE Institute Zürich, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: In einem ersten Teil soll die Terminologie Minimalismus ausgelegt werden. Im anschliessenden Kapitel der Begriff Multimedia und im nachfolgenden Kapitel die Beziehung zueinander. Als Quintessenz sollen ergänzende Orientierungshilfen bei der Mediengestaltung als auch kontemplative Anwendungsbeispiele in Multimedia beruhen vorwiegend auf Mediengestaltungstheorien. Es ist daher abzusehen, von Multimedia-Theorien zu sprechen, wenn Gestaltungstheorien gemeint sind. Form von teilweise sich wiederholenden Bildern, die in der Quellenangabe im Kapitel 6 referenziert sind, vorgetragen werden. Diese Arbeit erhebt keinen Anspruch auf detaillierte Vollständigkeit. Weder Design-Prozesse noch Produktions-Prozesse im Konkreten sind Gegenstand dieser Facharbeit. Viel mehr ist sie Resultat ausgewählter Neuerkenntnisse über die enge Verzahnung einer Stilepoche mit der stark technisierten Welt von Multimedia und deren Gestaltungsgesetze.

Minimalism
This volume presents an introduction to minimalism. It describes movements in various forms of art and design, especially visual art and music, where the work is stripped down to its most fundamental features. It is rooted in the reductive aspects of Modernism, and is often interpreted as a reaction against Abstract expressionism and a bridge to Postmodern art practices.
