Softcover. Condition: As New. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen. Our contemporary condition, governed by the abstract capitalist market, demands a critical reading of the distribution, ownership, and use of common resources such as land. This is especially true in Britain with its long history of privatization stemming from land enclosure. The latest research campaign of Laboratory Basel (laba), a satellite studio of the Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne, investigated the English manor house and how it can serve as a testing ground to reassess Britain's complex and ongoing relationship with the countryside. Southwest England is the most rural region of one of the more densely populated countries in Europe. It reflects all the absurdities of a globalized country under pressure to develop economically, physically, and environmentally. Highly protected landscapes, both natural and composed, form the backdrop to historic seats of political power and wealth, while sites of intense modern productivity are neatly concealed behind natural veils. Manor Lessons , the concluding volume of laba's Teaching and Research in Architecture series, explores the lessons that can be learned from the history of the manorial system, whose forgotten feudalistic origins were once rooted in the idea of the land not as private property, but as common ground.…

Hardback. Condition: New. In their new book, the international CARTHA network engages with the question of forming identity in society and the role that architecture plays in this process. Inspired by Jacques Lacan's approach from psychoanalysis, CARTHA's members break down the identity-formation process into four sub-steps, which they explore in interviews: Maarten Delbeke, professor of history and theory of architecture at ETH Zurich, talks about Assimilation; Frederike Lausch, researcher at TU Darmstadt's Department of Architecture, about Appropriation; Rob Krier, Berlin and Liguria-based architect and sculptor, about Denial, and Jonathan Sergison, London-based architect, about Reconciliation. These conversations make up the cornerstones for a new, experimental design methodology, which has been tested in practice by architecture firms Bruther (Bordeaux), Bureau Spectacular (Los Angeles), Conen Sigl (Zurich), Made In (Geneva / Zurich), Monadnock (Rotterdam), Studio Muoto (Paris), and Sam Jacob Studio (London). CARTHA - Building Identities features a variety of buildings - houses, cottages, apartments - designed in the context of these insights.The book offers a didactic manual for contemporary architectural design. The concept of identity that CARTHA proposes invites readers to adopt a critical attitude towards any found environment. The objective is a deeper understanding of how architects actually create identity through their designs.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -Im neuen Band CARTHA - Building Identity beschäftigt sich das international tätige Netzwerk CARTHA mit der Frage der Identitätsbildung in der Gesellschaft und der Rolle, die die Architektur dabei spielt. Inspiriert vom Lacan'schen Ansatz aus der Psychoanalyse zerlegen sie den Prozess der Identitätsbildung dabei in vier Teilschritte, die sie in Interviews vertiefen: Maarten Delbeke spricht über Assimilation, Frederike Lausch über Aneignung, Rob Krier über Verleugnung und Jonathan Sergison über Versöhnung. Ergebnis sind Eckpunkte für eine neue, experimentelle Entwurfsmethodik. Diese Methoden werden von Architektinnen und Architekten in der Praxis erprobt: Made In, Sam Jacob, Monadnock, Bruther, Bureau Spectacular, Conen Sigl und Muoto präsentieren verschiedene Bauten (Häuser, Hütten, Appartments), die sie im Kontext dieser Erkenntnisse entworfen haben. Dieses englischsprachige Buch versteht sich als didaktisches Handbuch für einen zeitgemässen architektonischen Entwurf. Dabei zwingt der Begriff der Identität, wie ihn CARTHA hier vorschlägt, die Leserinnen und Leser dazu, eine kritische Haltung gegenüber jeder vorgefundenen Umgebung einzunehmen. Ziel ist ein vertieftes Verständnis dafür, wie die Architektinnen und Architekten mit ihrer Arbeit Identität stiften. 100 pp. Englisch.…
