Paperback. Condizione: New. This Architectural and Cultural Guide East Polynesia challenges the romanticised visions of the South Pacific by critically examining the built environment through the lens of architecture, history, and cultural resilience. Across over 400 richly illustrated pages, it traces how traditional knowledge…systems, ecological adaptation, and colonial ruptures have shaped architectural practices from the Cook Islands via French Polynesia and Pitcairn to Rapa Nui in Chilean Polynesia. With contributions from local experts, architects, geologists, and historians, the guide foregrounds the complex entanglements of place, power, and memory. Rather than offering a conventional typological catalogue, it maps networks of meaning: from sacred stone platforms (marae) and climate-responsive vernacular dwellings to the infrastructural legacies of nuclear testing and space-age geopolitics. The Pacific is not portrayed as a void but as a stage of cultural innovation and architectural intelligence. This publication is a carefully curated, research-based exploration of a region where architecture emerges not as monumentality, but as method: flexible, bioclimatic, and socially coded. Aimed at critically minded travellers, scholars, and architects, this volume invites readers to reconsider what architecture can mean in contexts defined not by permanence, but by rhythm, movement, and relational space.

Paperback. Condizione: New. 250 years United States of America Two volumes, one region: from Boston's civic and academic institutions to coastal landscapes and post-industrial sites, this 650-page title maps the full spectrum of the built environment in Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont.… More than 500 buildings by famous architects such as Marcel Breuer, Charles Bulfinch, Philip Johnson, Louis Kahn, I. M. Pei, Paul Rudolph, Josep Sert, among others. Since independence began here, New England has developed into a laboratory of American architecture, where civic order took on a permanent form. Volume 1 of the Architectural Guide New England focuses on the region's urban and institutional centers, stretching from Boston to New Haven. It examines those places where architecture developed as a cultural practice, an academic discipline, and a framework for social order. The volume traces the development of key building types, from the meeting house and the state house to the university campus, and shows how European architectural models were transformed into distinct local traditions. Architecture is not presented as a sequence of styles, but as a continuous discourse. Particular attention is given to the roles of schools and professional networks in establishing New England as a formative center of American architectural culture. The almost 250 buildings discussed demonstrate how the principles of restraint, proportion, and durability became guiding forces whose influence extended far beyond New England. Volume 2 of the Architectural Guide New England examines those regions where building is closely tied to the surrounding landscape. Coastal regions, rural areas, former industrial sites, and islands provide the framework for an architectural history shaped less by institutional concentration than by topographical conditions. The focus mainly lies on questions of adaptation and continuity: adaptive reuse, tourism-related architecture, seasonal buildings, and cultural and religious sites outside of metropolitan centers. The more than 250 buildings in this volume show how architectural concepts are carried forward, modified, or reinterpreted under different social and spatial conditions. In this way, it complements the institutional perspective of Volume 1 with a broader interpretation of the region.

Hardback. Condizione: New. This comprehensive survey provides detailed accounts of projects at home and abroad. It illustrates the architect duo's working method at the interface of theory and practice as we follow their activities from Berlin to Moscow to the Kazakh steppe and New Delhi. The attractive four-volume trade edition… with cardboard slipcase presents the entire spectrum that a young architectural practice has to cover to assert itself in the European and Asian markets today. "It takes a long time for the eye to become schooled enough to see the invisible qualities of a place that are never mentioned in building specifications or architectural critiques. And it takes longer still before an architect is able to design - to create from scratch - a sensually tangible harmony that gives distinction to the whole.".
