This book explores the varied ways in which wood is used in contemporary architecture, showcasing a wide selection of architectural achievements from across North and South America, Europe, and Asia.These buildings serve a wide range of purposes, from housing to schools, museums and auditoriums, to sports complexes or cultural centres. This is proof, if any were needed, of just how important wood is in architecture today, as either a structural building material or a form of cladding, opening up new horizons for clients and architects alike. The introduction takes a detailed analytical look at the different functions played by wood in modern-day architectural design, and in a world where solutions to climate-related challenges are a longawaited necessity. The ensuing chapters zoom in on a generous selection of buildings, along with sketches, layouts, cross-sections, and detailed execution plans, illustrating the importance of wood in building the architecture of the future through the myriad possibilities it offers, not only to architects and their clients, but also to architecture critics and historians.

Composite materials can lead to lighter, stronger, more durable, and better thermally performing buildings that have new formal possibilities. This book, the first to be published about this new class of materials as used in architecture, describes the technology underpinning composite materials, assesses their applicability to architecture, and surveys notable built examples throughout the globe. Projects by Foster + Partners, Zaha Hadid, Snohetta, Herzog & de Meuron, Morphosis, SHoP, Kengo Kuma, and Diller Scofidio + Renfro utilizing composite materials have recently been completed throughout the world. This book showcases those noteworthy new projects with photographs, explanatory text, drawings, diagrams, and construction photographs.

From handmade brick to high-tech products, building with blocks of fired clay draws from a heritage of nine millennia and remains innovative, sustainable, and highly appreciated for its manifold applications.Since 2004, Wienerberger AG has presented the biannual International Brick Award for outstanding achievements in brick architecture. The 2020 award saw 644 submissions from fifty-five countries, which were reviewed by an international jury of experts. Brick 20 features the fifty nominees and the six winning designs, which are located in Africa, Asia, Europe, and Central America. All the projects are presented with texts and richly illustrated with photographs, site and floor plans, views, elevations, and sections. Topical essays by Hubertus Adam, Anneke Bokern, Aglaée Degros, Job Floris, Jonathan Glancey, Christian Holl, Laura Iloniemi, and Jana Revedin discuss the winning buildings in a wider context, rounding out this celebration of contemporary brick architecture.

As architecture and design programmes throughout the world break out of the classroom and adopt the holistic methods of design/build programs, Materials for Architectural Design 2 is a survey that bridges the gap between construction materials and design sensibility. Authors Victoria Ballard Bell and Patrick Rand have revisited the format of their award-winning first volume and present sixty new case studies of materials put to imaginative use by today’s brightest architects. Bell and Rand introduce each material type – glass, concrete, wood, metal, plastic and masonry units – with new text describing its history and significance. Accessible case studies highlight recent advances in design and construction around the world – from a wooden church in Finland (JKMM Architects) and hand-crafted bamboo huts in Thailand (TYIN Tegnetsue Architects) to a bank encased in a glass shroud in Denmark (Schmidt Hammer Lassen Architects) and a museum faced with thousands of multicoloured ceramic rods in Germany (Sauerbruch Hutton). In a materials landscape that constantly changes to meet the demands of contemporary designers, Materials for Architectural Design 2 is an up-to-date guide to the best and most exciting materials at their disposal.

Until recently, much of the development of building materials has predominantly focused on producing cheaper, stronger and more durable construction materials. More recently attention has been given to the environmental issues in manufacturing, using, disposing and recycling of construction materials. Sustainability of construction materials brings together a wealth of recent research on the subject.The first part of the book gives a comprehensive and detailed analysis of the sustainability of the following building materials: aggregates; timber, wood and bamboo; vegetable fibres; maso
