But the most interesting trend of INDEPENDENTSrecent years is the growing of small niche brands, with high design content and with interesting growth opportunities. Companies working in this sector are growing mostly overseas (USA, Japan and Northern Europe), but also in Italy the trend is taking hold thanks to entrepreneurial realities with equal features: small specialized firms that do not follow the business licensing model while they are offering products featuring innovative materials. Italy has been a traditionally brand-oriented market; today, however, the market has changed and independent brands are observed with interest from opticians, tired of accepting very strict contracts from the big multinational players. In this market of independent, Pugnale has conquered its own space characterized by unique peculiar Italian taste. Research and technological development combined with the innovative use of techniques and materials was the base in order to create an excellence for the Made in Italy industry of luxury eyewear. Pugnale deepest mission is to recover the craftsmanship belonging to the first eyewear factories born in the north east of Italy since the beginning of the last century, a perfect mixture between past and future. All Pugnale productions are exclusively hand made in Italy, thanks to a selected network of suppliers, which, unlike the case of other companies, comes from the eyewear as well as from the medical, automotive and aerospace fields. This allows us to obtain different kinds of productions with exclusive technology transfers. All our eyewear are hand finished and inspected in our laboratories by our skilled staff. Emanuele Pugnale in partnership with Ermanno Scervino fashion PUGNALE house, designed a revolutionary eyewear: for the first time in the world SARTORIAL HANDMADE of the eyewear history real fur mink has been sewn by hand on the frame. Our artisans, in collaboration with the Italian fashion house Tagliatore create an iconic eyewear. Precious silks hand-woven all over the front IN ITALY part of the frame, plated with pink gold coatings, gives birth to a piece of Italian hand made glasses. Thanks to this exclusive handcrafted approach and combination between precious metals mixed with fabrics, we created a representative eyewear concept that obtained a worldwide copyright©. Our models focus on the valorization of Italian excellence for craftsmanship. Fine fabrics, inserts and workmanships will be the protagonist alongside our unmistakable use of precious metals. We dare to play with strong and decisive chromatic approaches. For our models we have used ceramic inserts which will give to our eyewear the uniqueness and elegance taste that was always marking our creations. The combination of peculiar and precious materials is the focus of our research, therefore the materials used and the manufacturing processes for our collections are incomparable to no one on the market.

  • PULSATION in ARCHITECTURE Eric Goldemberg
    JR0235_ BR Full color, revolutionary work on digital architecture NEW! PULSATION IN ARCHITECTURE Eric Goldemberg Pulsation in Architecture makes a very strong case, as the title suggests, for not only movement in archi- tecture—whirling, swirling, curling and more—but for a movement in architecture as well. Eric Goldemberg’s se- lection of architects and their works captures a constel- lation of architectural ideas hurtling along the vector of digital innovation like proton beams in the Large Hadron Collider. While many of these designers are quite well known in their own right, Goldemberg’s compilation suggests greater global affinities than might otherwise be supposed. —Terence Riley, Architect Retail Price: $89.95 Special Promotional Price: $79.95 when Ordered Direct from J. Ross Publishing Order online at WWW.JROSSPUB.COM or call 954-727-9333 ext.2 pulsation in architecture Pulsation in Architecture highlights the role of digital de- sign as the catalyst for a new spatial sensibility related to rhythmic perception. It proposes a novel critical reception of computational architecture based on the ability of digi- tal design to move beyond mere instrumentality, and to engage with core aspects of the discipline: the generative engine of digital architecture reinvigorates a discourse of part-to-whole relationships through the lens of rhythmic affect. There is a paradigm shift in spatial perception due to the intense use of computational techniques and the capacity to morph massive amounts of data in spatial patterns; rhythm plays a pivotal role in the articulation of the topology of buildings, generating the atmospheric character that induces moods and throbbing sensations in space.

  • REVOLUTIONS in PARALLEL: the RISE and FALL of DRAWING in ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN by Kristina M. Luce a Dissertation Submitted in Pa
    REVOLUTIONS IN PARALLEL: THE RISE AND FALL OF DRAWING IN ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN by Kristina M. Luce A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Architecture) in The University of Michigan 2009 Doctoral Committee: Professor Daniel Alan Herwitz, Co-Chair Associate Professor Malcolm McCullough, Co-Chair Professor Celeste A. Brusati Associate Professor Lydia M. Soo © Kristina M. Luce ____________________________ 2009 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The dissertation is more of a collaborative effort then an individual one. I am certainly responsible for the words on these pages, and I am, of course, solely responsible for any errors, but the thinking I cannot claim as mine alone. In this brief moment when one can acknowledge the contributions so generously provided by others, I find myself overwhelmed by the size of my indebtedness and by my gratitude for all scholars who brave criticism, and even ridicule, to share their thinking. One simply cannot make a contribution to any field without the first being inspired by the work that has come before, and the works of James Ackerman, James Elkins, Hans Belting, Mario Carpo, Wolfgang Lefèvre, Herbert Simon and John Harwood, among many others, were of enormous help in forming my own thoughts. More personally, this dissertation would not have the shape it does today had Greg Lynn, Neil Thelen, Evan Douglis and Richard Sarrach not given generously of their time, energy and expertise to share their thinking with me through a series of interviews. In some cases their words have found a place within my own, but they all have helped shape my understanding of the current state of design and practice within architecture.
