Libro: Transform: Promising Places, Second Chances, and the Architecture of Transformational Change (978-1-58093-608-8) de Deborah Berke (Monacelli Press ) Comprar Libros de Ciencias Técnicas .Arquitectura .. A guide to contemporary architecture practice in one of the most important fields today-the transformative adaptation of existing buildings. A manifesto and survey of contemporary practice by one of the leading offices in this domain, Deborah Berke Partners. For over 30 years, Deborah Berke Partners has been a leader in transforming old buildings for new futures. Transform: The Architecture of Adaptation will explore and document the ecological and urban imperative to revive and adapt existing built fabric, and it will demonstrate innovative and timeless tools and methods for creating successful new architecture out of old structures and found conditions. The book will be illustrated primarily, but not exclusively, with projects by Deborah Berke Partners, including academic buildings, boutique hotels, and community and cultural centers. Essays by Deborah Berke, Noah Biklen, Arthi Krishnamoorthy, and Alan Brake introduce each chapter. It will also include contributions by critics, planners, and artists with a shared interest in creating a sustainable, equitable, and enriching urban environment. Contributors include artist Titus Kaphar, urban history scholar Karen Seto, environmenal design leaders Atelier Ten, and photographer Christopher Payne. The term "adaptive reuse" is bland and imprecise. It implies a lack of rigor, as if old buildings were discarded objects that can easily be repurposed, like a turning an old milk crate into a bookshelf. Buildings-good ones, bad ones, whether designed by a famous architect, or without an author-are complex things, with histories, with impacts on their surroundings, with relations to people and places. They do not all deserve to be saved, but many do. Sometimes an unremarkable building can be transformed into something better than it ever was. Even good buildings by noted architects can be improved upon, especially if their use has changed or if their context has been significantly altered. In much of the country, particularly small to mid-sized, post-industrial cities, opportunities abound for the creative reuse of existing buildings. Deborah Berke Partners approaches these buildings-old warehouses, office buildings, even a historic sanatorium designed by H. H. Richardson-as material resources and as the foundation of sustainable urban redevelopment. These projects have impacts that extend far beyond their walls-this work is part of an urgent rethinking of American urbanism. 0

In 003ci003eNew Hamptons Houses,003c/i003e author David Sokol explores the latest architectural experiments taking place in New York?s legendary summer retreat. With contemporary design increasingly mainstream in the region, the seventeen residences featured here reflect modernism?s spread across not just the Hamptons but up-and-coming destinations like Bellport and Montauk, Greenport and Mattituck. Yet perhaps more important, the houses featured here represent a shift away from the image of conspicuously sprawling properties for the elite; these projects return to modernism?s founding principles, shun Instagrammable spectacle, and steward the East End?s increasingly fragile landscape. 003cbr003e 003cbr003eThese houses interface with the seaside landscape in ways that that reference the Hamptons? rich design history and sensitively highlight Long Island?s famed natural beauty. Some are renovations and additions to houses by famed twentieth century modernists like Andrew Geller, Charles Gwathmey, and Norman Jaffe, and leading offices such as Bates + Masi, Young Projects, and Ryall Sheridan Architects represent the contemporary approach to twenty-first century regionalism. 003ci003eNew Hamptons Houses003c/i003e presents these and numerous other examples of design-forward residences that are responsive to terrain, building vernacular, and cultural legacy.003cbr003e 0

Over the course of fifty years, Nancy Holt?s rich output spanned concrete poetry, audio, film and video, photography, drawings, room-sized installations, earthworks, and public sculpture. 003ci003eNancy Holt: Inside/Outside003c/i003e details her unique and significant contributions, situating an important female voice within the narratives of land and conceptual art.003cbr003e 003cbr003eInitiating her art practice in 1966 with concrete poetry, she soon expanded her ideas into the landscape, large-scale installations, audio, and video, and film. Through each medium, she explored how we understand our place in the world by investigating perception, both natural and human systems, and site within and outside of traditional museum contexts.003cbr003e003cbr003eIn the mid-1970s Holt completed her most influential earthwork, 003ci003eSun003c/i003e 003ci003eTunnels003c/i003e, an artwork central to the definition of land art. Bringing the stars down to earth, 003ci003eSun003c/i003e 003ci003eTunnels003c/i003e focuses attention on the systems of the universe. Holt was equally interested in the built environment as she was natural and celestial landscapes, and from the 1980s she made invisible architectural systems visible in ambitious installations that exposed the inner workings of buildings.003cbr003e 003cbr003eRigorous documentation of Holt?s work, as well as contributions by key scholars, previously unseen photoworks and drawings, and a revealing, never-before-published ?self-interview? by the artist bring her work into far fuller context. Developed in close consultation with Holt/Smithson Foundation, an artist-endowed organization dedicated to preserving and extending the work of Nancy Holt and her husband Robert Smithson, this expansive publication will serve as a major contribution to the critical ongoing research into the art of our time. 0
