Paperback. Condition: New. While completing the Almannajuvet Zinc Mine Museum in southern Norway in 2016, celebrated Swiss architect Peter Zumthor asked Norwegian scholar Mari Lending to engage in a dialogue about the project. Departing from the ways in which Zumthor's pavilions frame the barely visible traces of the industrial exploitation of zinc in the 1890s, the conversation took unexpected turns. In meandering, impressionistic style and drawing on Zumthor's favourite writers, such as Johann Peter Hebel, Stendhal, Vladimir Nabokov, and T.S. Eliot, their exchanges explore how history, time and temporalities reverberate across the famous architect's oeuvre. Looking back, Zumthor ponders on how a feeling of history has informed his continuous attempts of emotional reconstruction by means of building, from architectural interventions in dramatic landscapes to his design for the redevelopment of Los Angeles' LACMA on a grand urban scale. This small, beautifully designed new book records the conversation between Zumthor and Lending, illustrated with photographs by the renowned Swiss architectural photographer Hélène Binet.…

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. What really constitutes an architectural atmosphere? Peter Zumthor says, is this singular density and mood, this feeling of presence, well-being, harmony, beauty . under whose spell I experience what I otherwise would not experience in precisely this way. Zumthors passion is the creation of buildings that produce this kind of effect, but how can one actually set out to achieve it? In nine short, illustrated chapters framed as a process of self-observation, Peter Zumthor describes what he has on his mind as he sets about creating the atmosphere of his houses. Images of spaces and buildings that affect him are every bit as important as particular pieces of music or books that inspire him. From the composition and presence of the materials to the handling of proportions and the effect of light, this poetics of architecture enables the reader to recapitulate what really matters in the process of house design. Peter Zumthor's passion is the creation of buildings with architectural atmosphere. But how can one actually set out to achieve it?

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Eine Architektur, die in einer sinnlichen Verbindung zum Leben stehen soll, erfordert ein Denken, das ueber Form und Konstruktion weit hinausgeht. In seinen Texten bringt Peter Zumthor zum Ausdruck, was ihn zu diesen Gebaeuden motiviert, die Gefuehl und Verstand auf so vielfaeltige Weise ansprechen und ueber eine unbedingte Praesenz und Ausstrahlung verfuegen.Dieses Buch, das nun bereits in dritter Auflage erscheint, wurde nun um zwei neue Essays ergaenzt: Architektur und Landschaft beschaeftigt sich mit dem Verhaeltnis von Bauwerk und Umgebung, dem Geheimnis der gelungenen Platzierung und topografischen Einbindung von Architektur. In Die Leiserhaeuser beschreibt Peter Zumthor das Entstehen zweier Holzhaeuser im buendnerischen Leis und thematisiert damit die besondere Herausforderung, zeitgenoessische Architektur in einen traditionellen baulichen Kontext zu integrieren. In order to design a building with a sensuous connection to life, one must think in a way that goes far beyond form and construction. In these essays, Peter Zumthor expresses his motivation in designing buildings, which speak to our emotions and understanding in so many ways, and possess a powerful and unmistakable presence and personality.
