Abstract

Ästhetik und Konstruktion: das Zusammenwirken von Gestaltung und Technik anhand herausragender Gebäudebeispiele Anlässlich des 50jährigen Jubiläums hat die Redaktion erstmals in einem Band ausgewählte Artikel und Projektbeispiele aus zwei Jahrzehnten zusammengefasst - einem Zeitraum, in dem Verbreitung und Einfluss der Zeitschrift kontinuierlich gewachsen sind, Konzept und Erscheinungsbild beständig weiterentwickelt wurden und in den Jahren 1997 und 98 die behutsame Umstellung von der Hand- zur digitalen Zeichnung erfolgte. Dieser Band veranschaulicht nicht nur die Entwicklung der Zeitschrift selbst, sondern zeichnet kaleidoskopartig auch ein Bild der Architektur der letzten zwei Jahrzehnte, seiner Strömungen und Trends aber auch seiner konstruktiven Eigenheiten und leistet damit nicht zuletzt einen wesentlichen Beitrag zur Architekturdiskussion. Wie die Zeitschrift selbst, bietet die Publikation weitreichende Inspirationen und Hilfestellungen für die tägliche Arbeit.

Abstract

Die Anforderungen an unsere Arbeitsräume haben sich in jüngster Zeit grundlegend verändert: Wechselnde Belegungsdichte und Raumnutzung fordern in gleicher Weise Flexibilität der Raumstrukturen wie neue Berufe und innovative Arbeitsmethoden. Digitalisierung unserer Arbeitsmedien beeinflusst dabei ebenso die Planung der Arbeitsräume wie neue Materialien und Gebäudetechnologien. Bei aller Fexibilität und Technik steht der Mensch aber im Mittelpunkt - wie lassen sich also die vielschichtigen Konzepte hinsichtlich Raumklima, Licht, Akustik und auch Ergonomie mit unterschiedlich nutzbaren Raumstrukturen in Einklang bringen? Entsprechend dem typologischen Ansatz der Reihe stellt dieser Im Detail-Titel die verschiedenen Arbeitswelten anhand deren Nutzung vor. Im Zentrum steht dabei immer das gelungene Zusammenspiel zwischen technischen Standards, organisatorischen Strukturen und den menschlichen Ansprüchen. The requirements confronting our workplaces have recently undergone a dramatic transformation. Constantly shifting workspace populations and varying uses of workspace call for flexible spatial structures, and so do new professions and innovative working methods. The plannung of workspaces is influenced by the digitalization of our storage media as well as by new materials and building technologies. And yet for all the importance of flexibility and technology, the ultimate focus is still on human beings. How, then can the multilayered concepts of indoor climate, lighting, acoustics, and ergonomics be reconciled with spatial structures that lend themselves to a variety of uses? In keeping with the typological approach of the series, this volume of the series In Detail presents the various work environments organized according to use. The focus throughout is on the successful interplay between technical standards, organizational structures, and human needs.

Abstract

States have long been active in commissioning architecture, which affords one way to embed political projects within socially meaningful cultural forms. Such state-led architecture is often designed not only to house the activities of government, but also to reflect political-economic shifts and to chime with a variety of 'internal' and 'external' publics as part of wider discourses of belonging. From the vantage point of sociology, this context necessitates critical engagement with the role of leading architects' designs and discourses relative to politicized identity projects.Focusing on the mobilization of architecture in periods of social change, The Sociology of Architecture uses critical sociological frameworks to assess the distinctive force added to political projects by architects and their work. Through engagement with a range of illustrative examples from contested contemporary and historical architectural projects, Paul Jones analyses some of the ways in which architects have sought to position their architecture relative to state projects and wider publics. A central objective of the book is to situate major architectural projects as a research agenda for sociologists and others interested in the relationship between power, culture, and collective identities. Adopting a critical approach to such questions, The Sociology of Architecture frames architecture as a field of contestation over symbolic and material resources, which in turn provides an entry point for questioning the inextricably political ways in which collective identities are constructed, maintained and mobilized.

Abstract

Da inzwischen klar ist, dass uns viele Rohstoffe zukünftig nur noch begrenzt zur Verfügung stehen werden, wird seit einiger Zeit intensiv an Alternativen geforscht: Nachhaltigkeit ist das Gebot der Stunde und für Politik wie Industrie das Zauberwort für eine bessere Zukunft. Zudem ist das Bewusstsein für einen umweltverträglichen Umgang mit Werkstoffen und das Denken in Materialkreisläufen beim Konsumenten angekommen: Die Verwendung umweltverträglicher Materialien und Produktionsverfahren wird vom Kunden gewünscht, ja gar vorausgesetzt. Designern und Architekten kommt somit eine besondere Rolle und Verantwortung zu. Denn sie sind es, die bei ihren Projekten die Auswahl über die eingesetzten Werkstoffe treffen und damit entscheidenden Einfluss auf die Nachhaltigkeit unserer Produktwelt nehmen. Gleichzeitig haben wir es mit einer Flut neuer Materialien zu tun, was besondere Kenntnisse in Bezug auf ihre Eigenschaften, den möglichen Einsatz und ihre Verarbeitung erfordert. Materialrevolution schlägt hier die Brücke von Forschung und Industrie zu den Designern und Architekten, indem es einen systematischen Überblick über die derzeit verfügbaren nachhaltigen Materialien bietet und alle relevanten Information liefert, um die Eignung und das Potential eines neuen Materials für das eigene Projekt zu beurteilen. Dabei werden sowohl natürliche und biologisch abbaubare Materialien beleuchtet, als auch Werkstoffe mit multifunktionalen Eigenschaften und Potenzialen zur Verringerung des Energieeinsatzes vorgestellt. Since it is now clear that in the future many raw materials will only be available to us in limited quantities, scientists have for some time been conducting intensive research into possible alternatives. Sustainability is the order of the day and the magic word for a better future in politics and industry. Moreover, environmental consciousness and a penchant for thinking in terms of material cycles have caught on with consumers: the use of environmentally compatible materials and production methods is desired, even taken for granted by the client. Designers and architects thus have a special role and responsibility. For they are the ones who decide what materials will be used on their projects and thus wield enormous influence on the sustainability of our product world. At the same time, we are dealing with a flood of new materials, which calls for specialized knowledge of their properties, their possible use, and their handling. Material Revolution bridges the gap between research and industry on the one hand and designers and architects on the other by offering a systematic overview of the currently available sustainable materials and providing the reader with all the information he or she needs to assess a new material's suitability and potential for a given project. Along the way, it examines natural and biodegradable materials, while also presenting materials with multifunctional properties and the potential for diminishing energy requirements.

Abstract

"Kissing Architecture explores the mutual attraction between architecture and other forms of contemporary art. In this fresh, insightful, and beautifully illustrated book, renowned architectural critic and scholar Sylvia Lavin develops the concept of "kissing" to describe the growing intimacy between architecture and new types of art--particularly multimedia installations that take place in and on the surfaces of buildings--and to capture the sensual charge that is being designed and built into architectural surfaces and interior spaces today. Initiating readers into the guilty pleasures of architecture that abandons the narrow focus on function, Lavin looks at recent work by Pipilotti Rist, Doug Aitken, the firm Diller Scofidio + Renfro, and others who choose instead to embrace the viewer in powerful affects and visual and sensory atmospheres"--Publisher's description.

Abstract

Quels que soient le lieu ou la civilisation que l’on explore, des relations profondes entre religion et art se décèlent. L’art traduit volontiers les aspects des fonctions religieuses, soit dans le cadre organisé d’un rituel, soit plus spontanément, dans l’expression de la foi personnelle ou collective. Les religions font appel aux artistes pour rendre apparent et intelligible l’invisible mais se heurtent souvent à eux en leur imposant des formes. Mais si bien des civilisations ont fait l’objet d’études fouillées sur la manière dont elles articulaient l’art et la religion, force est de constater que très peu de chercheurs se sont attelés à une vue transversale de ces notions. Cet ouvrage s’inscrit dès lors dans une perspective comparative ayant pour but de souligner les diachronies et les spécificités religieuses.

Abstract

This book explores the idea that art can enact small-scale resistances against the status quo in the social domain. These acts, which we call “little resistances,” determine the limited yet potentially powerful political impact of art. From different angles, seventeen authors consider the spaces where art events occur as “political spaces,” and explore how such spaces host events of disagreements in migratory culture. The newly coined word “migratory” refers to the sensate traces of the movements of migration that characterize contemporary culture. In other words, movement is not an exceptional occurrence in an otherwise stable world, but a normal, generalized process in a world that cannot be grasped in terms of any given notion of stability. Thus the book offers fresh reflections on art’s power to move people, in the double sense of that verb, and shows how it helps to illuminate migratory culture’s contributions to this process.
