Synopsis
Labics is a rising Rome-based architectural firm that has gained great international acclaim in recent years for both its projects and its submissions to major competitions. Its guiding principle is the idea of “structure.” Each of the firm’s projects—which range from housing and office buildings to museums, cultural centers, schools, subway stations, and public spaces—is intended to exemplify the importance of the respective type of structure.
Labics—Structures is the first book on Labics’s remarkable and rapidly growing body of work. It is arranged in four chapters that explore the idea of structure in different contexts: Geometric, Bearing, Circulation, and Public Space Structures. Alongside topical essays, it features twenty projects selected by the firm’s founding directors, Maria Claudia Clemente and Francesco Isidori, to represent the diversity of the firm’s work, as well as its wide geographic reach—with buildings in Italy, Finland, Switzerland, England, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Saudi Arabia, and Iran. Each project is documented with atmospheric photographs and a wealth of plans and diagrams to illustrate concepts and details.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Labics ist eines der führenden jungen Architekturbüros in Italien. Es hat sich mit Beiträgen zu internationalen Wettbewerben und viel beachteten Bauten einen Namen gemacht. Nun erscheint die erste Monografie über ihr beeindruckendes Schaffen. Zu den vorgestellten Gebäuden und Projekten zählen Wohn- und Geschäftshäuser, Museen, Schulen, öffentliche Plätze, Begegnungszentren und U-Bahnstationen - ausserhalb von Italien in London, Finnland, Saudiarabien, Bosnien, der Schweiz und im Iran. Mit atmosphärischen Fotografien und umfassendem Planmaterial werden Konzepte und Details der Bauten dargestellt. Leitbegriff für das englischsprachige Buch ist das Wort «Strukturen», das in fünf thematischen Essays untersucht wird, in denen es um geometrische Strukturen, tragende Strukturen, Strukturen öffentlicher Räume, Erschliessungsstrukturen und um urbane Strukturen in einem übergeordneten Sinn geht. Jedes der Felder wird aufgefächert und interpretiert und dann auf seine Bedeutung im Schaffen von Labics hin untersucht. Diese fünf thematischen Exkurse bilden das Gerippe, in das die Präsentation der rund 20 Bauten und Projekte des römischen Büros eingehängt sind. Ausgezeichnet als eines der Schönsten Deutschen Bücher 2019. Seller Inventory # 9783038601289
