Gli ultimi decenni del Novecento sono stati segnati da un'esplosione di temi e direzioni di lavoro divergenti e contraddittori che questo libro ripercorre, inseguendo parole, concetti, metafore; indagando progetti editoriali; ricostruendo polemiche e disaccordi. Rintracciando la cultura del progetto dentro le forme tarde dell'avanguardia e nelle storie dei gruppi femministi e omosessuali degli …
Première église catholique construite à Lausanne depuis la Réforme, la Basilique Notre-Dame de l'Assomption au Valentin, achevée en 1834, est due à l'architecte Henri Perregaux, qui recourt à un style néoclassique sobre et épuré. Un siècle plus tard, l'église est agrandie et transformée par l'architecte Fernand Dumas, membre emblématique du Groupe de Saint-Luc, et devient un témo…
Landshape è una riflessione sul tema dello spazio a grande scala, della sua forma, o delle forme che lo popolano, che nel corso degli ultimi anni sono diventate anche campo di azioni progettuali innovative. Queste strategie, che trovano il loro cardine nel riconoscimento dei valori naturalistici, patrimoniali, culturali, ecologici, storici e identitari del territorio, tentano di operare una si…

This book honors the work of Hanna Stöger, the Leiden scholar who died in 2018. Hanna's w…

In the realm of hard sciences, time is seen as moving forward towards the future, providing a framework for navigating the entropy and disorder of systems. Time is seen subjectively in the humanities, as Bergson describes it in terms of recursive cycles exposed via sentient experience. From both angles, humanity is inevitably susceptible to time; either they die from entropic dispersion or depe…
'The artwork is no longer the integral part of the exhibition; to curate an exhibition is to curate an experience.' Bridging the gap between curatorial practices and spatial display methods, this book considers the impact of exhibition design not only on the material structure of the exhibition but also on its narrative potential. Exhibition Matters-an international collection of writings fro…

Das Kartellrecht und das Vergaberecht weisen in vielfacher Hinsicht Gemeinsamkeiten auf. Beide Rechtsgebiete sind stark europäisch beeinflusst, schützen die Funktionsfähigkeit des Wettbewerbs und finden im deutschen Recht ihre gemeinsame Grundlage im Gesetz gegen Wettbewerbsbeschränkungen (GWB). °°Mit Blick auf diese Parallelen setzt sich Maximilian Grubert mit der Frage nach Verantwortli…
2019 wird das Jubiläum "100 Jahre Bauhaus" gefeiert. Dabei gibt es eine bemerkenswerte Lücke. Das Jubiläum feiert die Prägungen des Designs und der Architektur, die heute noch als schick gelten. Die Radikalisierung des Neuen Bauens in Gestalt industriell errichteter Plattenbausiedlungen als das andere Erbe indes ist abwesend. Doch war der industrialisierte Wohnungsbau (auch) am Bauhaus vorg…
