Trade Paperback. Condizione: Used - Good. 'Into the Fire' Founded in the early 1950s, Perspecta is the oldest and most distinguished of the student-edited American architectural journals that have appeared in recent decades. Perspecta 29 examines the legacy of the academic and professional confrontations of the 1960s. The issue is assembled around the transcript of the 1992 conference 'Rethinking Designs of the 60s' (with Denise Scott Brown, Ed Logue, Cedric Price, Martha Rosler, Paul Rudolph, Ron Shiffman, Susanna Torre, Michael Webb, and others). It includes documents from the Architects' Resistance (1967-70), a student group whose activities coincided with the dissolution of Yale's Department of City Planning and an explosion and fire at the Yale Art and Architecture Building in 1969, as well as internal documents from the university related specifically to these events.The issue presents contemporary American projects that represent another generation of commitment to activist practice--continuing to approach design as a socially engaged, oppositional mission. Also included are an interview with Virginia Schaff and essays by Susan Piedmont-Palladino, Michael Sorkin, Thomas Fisher, Graham Finney, William McDonough, and Robert Goodman.

Trade Paperback. Condizione: Used - Very Good. This 36th volume of Perspecta -- America's oldest and most distinguishedstudent-edited architecture journal -- begins with the assumption that associationis a tool of creativity and analysis. The axiomatic modernist oppositions ofmacro/micro, literal/phenomenal, nature/industry, either/or, and both/and haveevolved from an argumentative tool into a narrative method.Juxtapositions createconflict. 'Juxtapositions' attempts to reclaim the breadth, scope, and relevance ofthe early volumes of Perspecta through meaningful juxtapositions -- what might betermed poignant adjacency. Thus a critique of studio education is deepened by itsadjacency to discussions of technology and urbanism, to visual art, to oldmodernism, to balkanization and globalization, to film, to fear of war, and to theannihilation and creation of cities. The juxtapositions (graphic and ideological) inthe volume, although created with editorial consideration, seek to evade and subvertthat consideration in favor of unforeseen overlap. This is meant as a provocation --not intentless, but ultimately intent-proof, a landscape upon which the unexpectedcan occur. The juxtapositions of writings, architecture, and art show that association can be a tool of creativity and analysis. Very nice clean, tight copy free of any marks. …

Trade Paperback. Condizione: Used - Very Good. 'Settlement Patterns' Founded in the early 1950s, Perspecta is the oldest and most distinguished of the student-edited American architectural journals that have appeared in recent decades. Perspecta 30 examines settlement patterns in twentieth-century America. The term 'settlement,' so critical to the ideology of the country's founding, is used to consider land use, development, and housing in a broad context. The essays address infrastructure, planned communities, zoning, and financing--all critical determinants of how the United States has come to be settled, with implications for the future. The contributors view housing not as an isolated architectural event but as a pervasive societal preoccupation of enormous impact.The issue includes original documentation of notable housing projects from the 1920s and 1930s, when modernist ideas promised to revamp architecture and when, in retrospect, many of the seeds for post-World War II suburban sprawl were planted. These housing schemes, now viewed as isolated social experiments, suggest alternative settlement patterns that might have developed.Perspecta 30 features articles by some of the country's leading architectural theorists, critics, educators, and practitioners. Among the contributors are Ed Bacon, Denise Scott Brown, Margaret Crawford, Mike Davis, Keller Easterling, Steve Kieran, Fred Koetter, Alex Maclean, Elizabeth Plater-Zyberk, Alan Plattus, Ron Shiffman, and Neil Smith.

Trade Paperback. Condizione: Used - Very Good. Founded in 1950, Perspecta is the oldest and most distinguished of the student-edited American architectural journals. Perspecta 33 explores the concept of architectural autonomy and its relationship to the discipline's potential as a critical agent.The journal revisits the debate of the past thirty years over architectural autonomy -- the belief that architecture is a self-contained field with its own legible, meaningful forms. It addresses the twentieth-century lineage of autonomy from its origins in the fine arts and art history to its architectural manifestation in the 1970s -- a time when the functionalist, utilitarian nature of the modernist era led to a perceived dissolution of the discipline's professional boundaries. From this historical understanding, the journal investigates current practice, asking whether autonomy is still essential to the 'critical project.'Perspecta 33 notes a shift in critical attention from the center of the discipline to its periphery, where architecture is able to translate intelligence from other disciplines into its own conventions and language, as well as pass ideas and speculation into the world. New methods of architectural production (digital design, imaging, and fabrication), growing environmental concerns, and changing ideas about domesticity and urban space suggest alternative directions for criticality.The essays are organized in two parts: those that explicitly engage the history of architectural autonomy and those that offer alternatives or counterexamples. In addition to the articles, there is a portfolio of contemporary projects that draw their criticality from disciplines outside architecture. Perspecta 33 also includes a work by the artist Ann Hamilton. Articles are by Stanford Anderson, Carol Burns, Bernard Cache, Diane Ghirardo, Elizabeth Grosz, K. Michael Hays and Lauren Kogod, Neil Leach, Hashim Sarkis, Robert Somol, Michael Stanton, Anthony Vidler, Sara Whiting, and Christopher Wood.The editors of Perspecta 33 are graduates of The Yale School of Architecture and practicing architects.

Perspecta 40Monster The Yale Architectural Journal edited by MarcGuberman, Jacob Reidel, and Frida RosenbergContemporary architecture is in many waysa monstrous thing. It is bigger, more broadly defined, increasingly complicated, more costly, and stylistically and formally heterogeneous--if not downrightunhinged. Not only is the scale of the built environment expanding, but so is theterritory of the architectural profession itself. A perfect storm of history, technology, economics, politics, and pedagogy has generated a moment in time inwhich anything seems possible. The results have been at times strange and evenfrightening. Long ago, the birth of an abnormal creature was interpreted as a signof looming trouble. These monstra--from the Latin monere, 'to warn' andmonstrare, 'to show'--were viewed with both fear and fascination. Thisfortieth issue of Perspecta--the oldest and most distinguished student-editedarchitectural journal in America--examines architecture past and present through thelens of the monster. The contributors--a diverse group of scholars, practitioners, and artists--embrace the multitude of meanings this term carries in an attempt tounderstand how architecture arrived at its present situation and where it may begoing. Perspecta 40 represents in itself a kind of monster--a hybrid, jumbled, conflicting amalgamation of work and ideas that looks at the past in new ways andtells of things to come. Contributors includePhilip Bernstein, Mario Carpo, ArindamDutta, Ed Eigen, Mark Gage, Gensler, Marcelyn Gow and Ulrika Karlsson (servo), Catherine Ingraham, Mark Jarzombek, Terry Kirk, Leon Krier, Greg Lynn, John May, John McMorrough, Colin Montgomery, Guy Nordenson, Eeva-Liisa Pelkonen, EmmanuelPetit, Kevin Roche, Yoshiharu Tsukamoto (Atelier Bow-Wow) and Ryuji Fujimura, Michael Weinstock, Claire ZimmermanMarc Guberman is a graduate of the Yale School ofArchitecture and the Yale School of Management and is a practicing architect. JacobReidel is a graduate of the Yale School of Architecture and is a practicingarchitect. Frida Rosenberg is a graduate of the Yale School of Architecture and is apracticing architect, currently teaching at Lund University in Sweden.

Trade Paperback. Condizione: Used - Very Good. 'Architects, Process and Inspiration: A Collection of Essays' Founded in the early 1950s, 'Perspecta' is the oldest and most distinguished of the student-edited architectural journals that have flourished in this country for decades. The focus of 'Perspecta 28' is the 'architect's persona.' The essays concentrate on the role that personal vision plays in the process of perceiving, transforming, and building a world outside of oneself. The idea is that design process is a personal activity that grows out of an individuals education and experiences. 'Can you recognize the personal in a mans work?' asks Louis Kahn in the previously unpublished lecture that opens the issue. The following essays, in which contributors search for clues to Kahns 'personal,' take the form of discrete installations. The final form of each piece grew from its particular written and visual message, revealing the 'personal' in the authors work. Jean Nouvel's nihilistic lecture, Aldo Rossi's anachronistic cartoons, W. G. Clarke's quiet travelogue through the South's backwoods: each installation is an evocative interweaving of message and medium. The essays share a belief in the power of personal vision and human energy, which cannot be found by analytic means alone. Contributors include Gunter Behnisch, Deborah Berke, Denise Scott Brown, Thomas Burton, W. G. Clark, Margaret Helfand, Louis Kahn, John Keenen, Thomas Leeser, Jean Nouvel, John Patkau, Patricia Patkau, Terence Riley, Aldo Rossi, Adele Santos, and Robert Venturi.
