Synopsis:
Stan Allen is an architect and educator who has won global acclaim, primarily for his work in town planning and his influential 1996 essay “Field Conditions.” His new book Situated Objects shows a unique facet of his creative process: a selection of small buildings and projects on rural sites, most of them situated within the landscape of the Hudson Valley, New York. They demonstrate an approach to architecture that engages in a dialogue with this partly wild and wholly non-urban environment that lies just outside the gates of New York City.
The projects are presented in drawings and a rich array of images by celebrated photographer Scott Benedict. They are arranged in three thematic categories: Outbuildings, Material Histories, and New Natures, supplemented by the architect’s writings and essays contributed by Helen Thomas and Jesús Vassallo. The first book on Stan Allen’s buildings, Situated Objects highlights Allen’s personal engagement with American material traditions, the conventions of architectural drawing, and the challenge of building with nature.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Der Architekt und Princeton-Professor Stan Allen ist weltweit vor allem für seine Arbeit auf städteplanerischer Ebene sowie für sein 1996 veröffentlichtes einflussreiches Essay Field Conditions bekannt geworden. Situated Objects zeigt nun eine gänzlich andere Facette seines Schaffens: Eine Auswahl kleinerer Bauten und Projekte in der ländlichen Umgebung des Hudson Valley, New York, zeugt von einer architektonischen Herangehensweise, die im direkten Dialog mit dieser teils wilden, gänzlich unstädtischen Umwelt vor den Toren New Yorks steht. Die in Plänen und reichem Bildmaterial vorgestellten Projekte sind drei thematischen Kategorien zugeordnet: «Compounds», «Material Histories» und «New Natures», welche durch Texte des Architekten selbst sowie Essays von Helen Thomas und Jesús Vassallo ergänzt werden. In zahlreichen für dieses Buch entstandenen Bildern fängt der bekannte Architekturfotograf Scott Benedict zudem die spezielle Atmosphäre des Hudson Valley und der darin eingebetteten Bauten ein.
