NEW TITLES 2/3 Two Austrian-born designers have left their indelible mark on California’s residential architecture of the 1930s to 1960s: Rich- ard Neutra (1892–1970) and Rudolph M. Schindler (1887–1953) combined modern form and inventive construction with new materials to create a truly modern vision of living that remains inspirational to the present day.

This book features twenty famous and lesser known houses from that period, designed by the two pioneers and other architects that were influenced by Neutra’s and Schindler’s ideas. All are marked by highly economical use and outstanding quality of space, a minimalist aesthetic, and by their ideal adaption to climatic conditions. They are monuments of a period as well as timeless models for contemporary and future architecture.

The images show the buildings in their present state, highlight- ing their nature as actively used living spaces where alterations to original designs have been made rather than as preserved monuments. The texts explore the relationship of the present inhabitants to their homes and what they mean to them. Together, the authors offer uniquely intimate insights into a sophisticated way of life still too little known outside California.

NEW TITLES 4/5 Romeo and Julia, two residential high-rises in Stuttgart, built 1954–59 and designed by Hans Scharoun (1893–1972), constitute the most original and far-reaching of the various attempts to re-design the entire “process of living” undertaken by this extraordinary protagonist of Germany’s modern architecture. Over decades, Scharoun had woven an extensive network of research and knowledge systems as a basis for his floor-plan designs. His writings and lectures from between 1947 and 1958 reveal the countless threads of research and discourse, which his work in residential architecture referenced and absorbed. They highlight the sometimes contradictory, yet constant renewal and consolidation of his knowledge in the field of housing.

This book demonstrates how closely interlocked Romeo and Ju- lia are with their architect’s immense engagement with the topic of housing. Based on extensive research and drawing on previously unpublished archive material, it offers a unique insight into Scharoun’s design process. Alongside reproductions of original plans and drawings, it features excerpts from his unpublished text fragments as well as newly commissioned photo essay that highlights Romeo and Julia’s highly expressive appearance.

Infrastructures for residents: São Paulo’s long-term investment in communal architecture, a prime example for how to tackle major social challenges in mega-cities

Like all mega-cities around the globe, São Paulo faces huge challenges. Yet despite these manifold and daunting tasks, the Brazilian metropolis has since the 1960s maintained a prudent policy of investing in communal infrastructure, thus providing inclusive places and spaces for all of its 20m-population. While many cities aim for a “Bilbao-effect” by funding iconic, tourist-orientated projects such as museums or the- atres, São Paulo persistently supports programs and usages that serve its permanent residents.

Valerio Olgiati is one of Switzerland’s most renowned contemporary architects whose writings and lectures are received widely around the world

Valerio Olgiati and Markus Breitschmid’s manifesto for a new architecture in a world free of ideologies and, therefore, references

More than ever, architecture is in need of provocation, a new path beyond the tradi- tional notion that buildings must serve as vessels, or symbols of something outside themselves.

Non-Referential Architecture is nothing less than a manifesto for a new architecture. It brings together two leading thinkers, architect Valerio Olgiati and theorist Markus Breitschmid, who have grappled with this problem since their first encounter in 2005. In a world that itself increasingly rejects ideologies of any kind, Olgiati and Breitschmid offer Non-Referential Architecture as a radical, new approach free from rigid ideologies.

NEW TITLES 10/11 Today one of Australia’s leading architects, Angelo Candalepas’s career lifted off in 1994, when he gained wide recognition for his winning submission to the international competition for housing in Sydney’s Pyrmont neighborhood. Over the course of twenty- five years, the buildings of Sidney-based firm Candalepas Associates have won numerous awards and have been widely published internationally in magazines and journals. They show a development of architectural considerations drawing upon the heritage of past masters such as Louis I. Kahn, Carlo Scarpa, or Le Corbusier, and that of eminent Australian architects Glenn M. Murcutt, Richard Johnson and Colin Madigan.

This first monograph features a selection of Candalepas’s key designs through photographs, plans and elevations as well as his hand-drawings and sketches. Built structures feature alongside unrealized projects that mark milestones in the firm’s development, while other not yet built ones offer an outlook towards its future trajectory. Topical essays by Alberto Campo Baeza and Laura Harding as well as an insightful text by the architect him- self round out this comprehensive, lavishly illustrated survey of the achievements of Candalepas Associates to date.
