Temporary buildings can be both interim solutions that no longer serve a purpose at a specific point in time, or projects constructed for special occasions. In all instances, they take possession of a location for a certain time, giving it a new meaning and quality. Architects who create temporary architecture have to plan the disappearance of their work from the outset. The ephemeral nature of this architecture allows architects to focus in a very specific and precise way on what is essential and make very pointed architectural statements. The concept frequently transgresses the borderlines of architecture, art, design, and social intervention, which results in a very unique form of architectural freedom. The frequently experimental nature of temporary architecture provides novel perceptions of buildings, outdoor spaces, and rooms.

Le Corbusier designed the Philips Pavilion for the World’s Fair in Brussels in 1958. It is his only building for a Dutch client. The unconventional pavilion was the setting for the experimental performance Le poème électronique. Using film, light, colour, space and music, and seen by one and a half million visitors, this event is regarded as the first multimedia performance for the general public. After its demolition in 1959, the pavilion became an icon of the twentieth century. The Rijksmuseum has a scale model of the pavilion and the soundtrack of Le poème électronique. EYE Filmmuseum keeps the film footage of the performance. The book is the complete overview of the Philips Pavilion. It also reproduces the total experience produced by Le poème électronique. One visitor to the performance eloquently described the experience as ‘like an ant in a hurricane’.

As economic problems make some shy away from grandiose, long-lasting buildings, a wave of new temporary buildings and architecture is sweeping over the planet. These can have uses from emergency relief to concert or performance venues. Another fascinating area that is covered here is exhibition and fair design, a veritable treasure trove of exciting designs that come and go in the space of a week or less, to showcase fashion, jewelry, or design. Fashion shows or art displays are all part of this dynamic trend that includes some of the great names in contemporary architecture like Zaha Hadid or Rem Koolhaas, but also many architects that you have never heard of until now!Featured architects and practices include:

Werner Aisslinger, Atelier Bow Wow, Aybar Mateos, Cecil Balmond, Shigeru Ban, Bernardes Jacobsen, BIG, Alberto Campo Baeza, Carmody Groarke, Santiago Cirugeda, Coop Himmelb(l)au, Diller Scofidio + Renfro, Ecosistema Urbano, Olafur Eliasson, Ammar Eloueini, Essentia, Established & Sons, Fantastic Norway, Mark Fisher, Massimiliano Fuksas, Laurent Grasso & Pascal Grasso, Zaha Hadid, Heatherwick, Institute of Computational Design, Toyo Ito, Adam Kalkin, Ken Min Architects, Koers Mulder, Adolf Krischanitz, Liu Jiakun, LOT-EK, MAPT, Miralles Tagliabue, MOS, Eric Owen Moss, NASA, Ivan Navarro, Jean Nouvel, OBRA Architects, OMA, OMD, John Pawson, Philippe Rahm, Raumlabor Berlin, Francesc Rifé, Michel Rojkind, Rotor, Tomás Saraceno, SO-IL, Tamassociati, Javier Terrados Cepeda, UNStudio, Helena Willemeit, Tokujin Yoshioka

Im Horizont der globalen Erwärmung bekommt die Bau-Aufgabe schattenspendende Konstruktion eine immer stärkere Bedeutung. Im Ersten Teil des Buches werden durch Fachautoren die typischen Formen Schatten werfender Konstruktionen sowie die entwerferische Herangehensweise dargestellt. Im Zweiten Teil sind in synoptischer Form nachschlagefreundlich 140 Pflanzen charakterisiert, die sich in der Praxis für eine schattenspendende Bepflanzung in gemässigten, subtropischen und tropischen Zonen bewährt haben. Im Dritten Teil werden 30 gebaute Projekte von renommierten Architekten und Landschaftsarchitekten aus 5 Kontinenten vorgeführt. Diese Konstruktionen illustrieren unterschiedlichste Funktionen sowie Interventions-Maßstäbe, und sie decken verschiedene Klimazonen und kulturelle Kontexte ab. Alle Bauten werden nach denselben Kriterien systematisch-konstruktiv anhand von Text, maßstabgetreuen Zeichnungen und Fotos analysiert, vom Fundament über die Verbindungen bis zum Schattenwurf. Trees are ideal sources of shade; where they cannot be used, their function is taken over by tents, pergolas, and pavilions. In the context of global warming, shade-providing construction is becoming an increasingly important building task. In Part One of this book, specialists in the field present the typical forms of shade-providing construction as well as the design approach associated with each. Part Two presents easily consultable overviews of 140 plants that have proven to be effective givers of shade in temperate, subtropical, and tropical zones. Part Three presents thirty built projects by celebrated architects and landscape architects from five continents. These constructions illustrate a wide variety of functions and scales and cover various climatic zones and cultural contexts. All structures are constructionally and systematically analyzed with texts, true-to-scale drawings, and photographs from their foundations to their connections and the shadows they cast.

Very small buildings have a special appeal. They constraints of space and cost can liberate the imagination. Most of the project in this book consist of no more than a few key spaces, in many cases just a single space. They are united only by their compact nature, the pleasure that they can provide, and the intelligence that they embody." "A brief introduction is followed by five thematic chapters: Public Realm, Community Spaces, On the Move, Compact Living and Extra Space. Case studies include a park bench that transforms into a shelter in Australia, an inflatable treetop structure for observing rainforests, sleeping tubes in an Austrian park, a movable church in Finland and a suspended office in France.
