Norways Lund Hagem Arkitekter is celebrated for their unique relationship with nature. For each
building, the firm deftly analyses the built and natural landscape, determining which parts of a site
should remain unbuilt, and which microclimates would best lend themselves to domestic living.
Established in 1984, the firm has staked their reputation on their unique sensitivity to the interplay
between form, material and the buildings already-existing surroundings. Impressions from the
landscape and local buildings create a vocabulary they use as their basis for creating modern
architecture rooted in the Nordic tradition. This book showcases the firms small buildings and
cabins, in which the interplay between built and unbuilt natural landscape achieves its maximum
effect.

Dorte Mandrup
Arvinius + Orfeus Publishing 2015 ISBN 9789185689620 Acqn 24769
Hb 22x24cm 224pp 450ills 350col 36
Dorte Mandrup is one of the most original and socially committed Danish architects of her
generation. Down to the very smallest detail, her buildings communicate both with the users as
well as the public space around them. Dorte Mandrup never builds without taking a stand. Nor is
she ever dull. Her special relationship to reality is evident in everything from the boldest play with
rooms and forms to the delicate restoration of a Danish classic such as Arne Jacobsens
Munkegrd School. Edited by Tomas Lauri, this monograph features contributions from Hans
Iberlings, Christian Bundegaard and Ken Martinussen with beautifully illustrated presentation of
the firm's most acclaimed and daring projects.

A.Mag 07 - Buchner Brundler Architects, Fuhrimann Hachler Architects

A.Mag 2015 ISBN 9788460697039 Acqn 25509
Pb 24x32cm 210pp 200ills 150col 33.50
This edition features the work of two Swiss offices, Buchner Brndler Architekten and AFGH
(Andreas Fuhrimann and Gabrielle Hchler). Addressing the idea of Swiss architecture as
synonymous with accuracy, quality, functional clarity, and having a strong formal identity, it goes
a step further to examine its balance between the exceptional quality of craft, manufacturing
techniques, and the use of state-of-the-art technology. The architecture is thus imbued with a
huge technical rigour and pure formal and sensory awareness. With ten projects by Buchner
Brndler and six by AFGH, ranging from small- to large-scale, plus an essay by Jos Manuel
Pedreirinho.

Our Nature - Within The Limits Of City Parks

Lecturis 2015 ISBN 9789462261181 Acqn 25113
Pb 23x28cm 80pp 46col ills 31
With this intricately folded and bound volume, Janine Schrijver presents her sizable international
photographic investigation into city parks. Over the past five years, she has photographed the
various facets of many urban parks from users, vegetation and flowers, and park features, to
leisure activities and functions, and even detrimental aspects such as littering and vandalism.
Located in popular parks in Rotterdam, The Hague, Amsterdam, Brussels, Paris, London, Berlin,
Antwerp, Barcelona, Vienna, Rio de Janeiro, Shanghai, and New York, it approaches the subject
from a familiar perspective, yet also asks for a deeper consideration of why we take such green
areas for granted.

Learning From Las Cuencas

Banco Sabadell Herrero 2015 ISBN 9788461707737 Acqn 25420
Pb 20x27cm 240pp 225ills 200col 31
This publication provides a new perspective on the cultural landscapes of mining across the
province of Asturias in northwest Spain. These areas, after undergoing an intense process of
industrialisation, have changed considerably within just a few decades. What were once natural
valleys with rural economic and social structures came to host bustling, dense urban
agglomerations. As a result, hybrid architectures have emerged, mutating artefacts which, despite
the invisibility of their inevitable marginality, can offer interesting lessons in architecture today.
Richly illustrated with photographs and diagrams, it features contributions from noted artists and
architects.

Anne Lacaton & Jean-Philippe Vassal - Freedom Of Use

Sternberg Press 2015 ISBN 9783956791734 Acqn 25522
Pb 14x21cm 96pp 28ills 13col 8.95
Edited by Jennifer Sigler and Leah Whitman-Salkin
Nothing in the architecture of Lacaton and Vassal is what it looks like at first glance.
Iaki balos, introducing Anne Lacaton and Jean-Philippe Vassal, Harvard University
Graduate School of Design, March 24, 2015
Anne Lacaton and Jean-Philippe Vassal are known for an architecture that privileges inhabitants
freedom and pleasure through generous, open designs. The Paris-based architects opened their
2015 lecture at Harvard University with a manifesto: study and create an inventory of the existing
situation; densify without compressing individual space; promote user mobility, access, choice;
and most importantly, never demolish. Freedom of Use reflects on these core values to present a
fluid narrative of Lacaton and Vassals oeuvre, articulated through processes of accumulation,
addition, and extension. The architects describe built and unbuilt work, from a house in Niger
made of little more than branches; to the expansive Nantes School of Architecture; to a public
square in Bordeaux where, after months of study, their design solution was: do nothing.
Lacaton and Vassals principle of doubling space is echoed in the books treatment of
photography: black-and-white exterior shots that run alongside the text form a dialogue with
corresponding full-colour photographs of each interior, gathered at the end of the book.
