Hardback. Condition: New. The new education centre of Advan FC on the island of Madagascar is a prime example of a bottom-up development-aid project based on pragmatism and with the goal of self-empowerment. When Viktor Bänziger, who runs a bar in the heart of Zurich, visited Madagascar as a tourist in 2015, he was struck by the… severe poverty and difficult living conditions of the local population and decided to act. In close collaboration with Zurich-based architect Nele Dechmann and the president of Advan FC, Titus Solohery Andriamananjara, the project for a new football ground and surrounding buildings was developed. The complex, which is soundly based on local building knowledge and construction methods, gives local children the opportunity to develop their football skills and, more importantly, to receive minimal reading and writing lessons after football training and to have meals together. The remote location in Madagascar's mountains and the tight budget suggested a simple typology that conveys a common architectural language despite the different uses of individual buildings. A key part of the entire concept is a simple manual for the actual construction that leaves many decisions and responsibilities to the local community.This book tells the story of an extraordinary participative undertaking, which very likely will never be completed entirely, of people originating from deeply differing cultural and socio-economic backgrounds. It introduces a model of potentially universal usage anywhere in the world. And it documents the architecture of Advan FC's education center and its construction process in rich detail through photographs and plans.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neu -Die Publikation Up Up - Stories of Johannesburg's Highrises präsentiert eine Auswahl von Gebäuden in der Innenstadt von Johannesburg. Der Schwerpunkt liegt auf hohen modernistischen Türmen, die zur Zeit ihrer Erbauung Prestigebauten waren. Als Zeugen tiefgreifender Umschwünge in der politischen…Geschichte der Metropole haben sie umfangreiche Veränderungen durchlaufen. Dokumentiert werden die Bauten in zwei Erzählsträngen: Einerseits wird anhand von Fakten, Grundrissen, Archivmaterial und zeitgenössischen Innen- und Außenansichten die Architektur formal vorgestellt. Andererseits gibt es zu jedem Gebäude eine Reportage oder einen subjektiven Essay über dessen Innenleben. Interviews mit Bewohnern, gründlich recherchierte Texte zu aktuellen Themen und Beiträge unabhängiger Autoren, Künstler und Fotografen gestatten Einblicke in das alte und neue Leben dieser Türme. (Text engl.) 334 pp. Englisch.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Duplex Architects exemplify innovative housing design in Switzerland and what it can contribute to urban development. Duplex Architects were founded in 2007 in Zurich and now also run offices in Duesseldorf, Hamburg, and, most recently, in Paris. They have gained an excellent reputation inte…rnationally for their designs of various scales and across a vast range of typologies. This first monograph on Duplex Architects' work in Germany and Switzerland offers a close look at their approach to housing design. Five projects in Switzerland are documented extensively through a wealth of images, plans, and visualisations, exemplifying the firm's position on urban planning, typology research, and materiality and demonstrating their utterly independent way of working. Urban scale, search for new forms of communal living, the importance of community, and a collaborative design process are at the core of Duplex Architects' explorations into residential architecture. Nele Dechmann's text and Ludovic Balland's photo essay serve to illuminate Duplex Architects' work each in their own way. Further texts are contributed by the firm's founding partners Anne Kaestle and Dan Schuerch, as well as by other expert authors, who cast their own personal glance at the five projects featured in this book. AUTHORS: Ludovic Balland lives and works in Basel as a graphic designer specialising in entire editorial projects, and also teaches as a professor of typography at HGB Hochschule fuer Grafik und Buchkunst in Leipzig and lectures at various art schools and universities in Switzerland, Europe, and the US. Nele Dechmann is a Zurich-based freelance architect and theorist with a focus on new forms of housing. SELLING POINTS: . First monograph on Swiss firm Duplex Architects to date, documents in great detail five housing designs that exemplify Duplex Architects' position, concepts, and methods . Outstanding book design by Ludovic Balland Typography Cabinet 500 colour, 20 b/w illustrations First monograph on Swiss firm Duplex Architects to date, documenting in great detail five housing designs that exemplify Duplex Architects position, concepts, and methods.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - The new education center of Advan FC on the island of Madagascar is a prime example of a bottom-up development-aid project based on pragmatism and with the goal of self-empowerment. When Viktor Bänziger, who runs a bar in the heart of Zurich, visited Madagascar as a tourist in 2015, he was…struck by the severe poverty and difficult living conditions of the local population and decided to act. In close collaboration with Zurich-based architect Nele Dechmann and the president of Advan FC, Titus Solohery Andriamananjara, the project for a new soccer field and surrounding buildings was developed. The complex, which is soundly based on local building knowledge and construction methods, gives local children the opportunity to develop their soccer skills and, more importantly, to receive minimal reading and writing lessons after training and to have meals together. The remote location in Madagascar's mountains and the tight budget suggested a simple typology that conveys a common architectural language despite the different uses of individual buildings. A key part of the entire concept is a simple manual for the actual construction that leaves many decisions and responsibilities to the local community. Documenting the architecture of Advan FC's education center and its construction process in rich detail through photographs and plans, this book tells the story of an extraordinary participative undertaking of people originating from deeply differing cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds. It introduces a model of potentially universal usage anywhere in the world in which the continuous exchange of knowledge between a project's participants demonstrates an inspiring alternative to conventional international collaborations.; Der neue Treffpunkt des Fussballclubs von Advan im abgelegenen Bergland Madagaskars ist ein gelungenes Beispiel einer Entwicklungszusammenarbeit, deren pragmatischer Ansatz die Selbstermächtigung der lokalen Bevölkerung zum Ziel hatte. Ausgehend von einer Initiative des Zürcher Gastronomen Viktor Bänziger in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Präsidenten des FC Advan, Titus Solohery Andriamananjara, entstand ein kultureller Treffpunkt, der den Kindern sowohl Platz zum Fussballspielen bietet als auch Zugang zu minimaler Schulbildung und Raum für gemeinsame Mahlzeiten schafft. Die Zürcher Architektin Nele Dechmann hat für den Bau eine einfache architektonische Sprache entwickelt, die sich am lokalen Gebäudetyp orientiert und auf dem lokalen Bauwissen und den Materialien der Umgebung basiert. Ein wesentlicher Bestandteil des Gesamtkonzepts ist eine planerische Anleitung mit axonometrischen Zeichnungen - ein Handbuch für den Bau, der viele Entscheidungen und Verantwortlichkeiten der Gemeinschaft vor Ort überliess und dennoch zu einem stimmigen Gesamtwerk führte. Dieses englischsprachige Buch dokumentiert die Architektur des Zentrums für den FC Advan und dessen Bauprozess in all seinen Facetten anhand zahlreicher Fotos und Pläne. Es erzählt aber auch die Geschichte eines aussergewöhnlichen partizipativen Projekts von Menschen mit sehr unterschiedlichen kulturellen und sozioökonomischen Hintergründen. Es stellt ein potenziell universelles Nutzungsmodell vor, in dem der kontinuierliche Wissensaustausch zwischen den Projektbeteiligten eine inspirierende Alternative zu herkömmlichen internationalen Kooperationen darstellt.
