The Business Organisation of the Bourbon Factories
The Business Organization of the Bourbon Factories: Mastercraftsmen, Crafts, and Families in the Capodimonte Porcelain Works and the Royal Factory at San Leucio Silvana Musella Guida Without exaggerating what was known as the “heroic age” of the reign of Charles of Bourbon of which José Joaquim de Montealegre was the undisputed doyen, and without considering the controversial developments of manufacturing in Campania, I should like to look again at manufacturing under the Bourbons and to offer a new point of view. Not only evaluating its development in terms of the products themselves, I will consider the company's organization and production strategies, points that are often overlooked, but which alone can account for any innovative capacity and the willingness of the new government to produce broader-ranging results.1 The two case studies presented here—the porcelain factory at Capodimonte (1740-1759) and the textile factory in San Leucio (1789-1860)—though from different time periods and promoted by different governments, should be considered sequentially precisely because of their ability to impose systemic innovations.2 The arrival of the new sovereign in the company of José Joaquin de Montealegre, led to an activism which would have a lasting effect.3 The former was au fait with economic policy strategy and the driving force of a great period of economic modernization, and his repercussions on the political, diplomatic and commercial levels provide 1 For Montealegre, cf. Raffaele Ajello, “La Parabola settecentesca,” in Il Settecento, edited by Giovanni Pugliese Carratelli (Naples, 1994), 7-79. For a synthesis on Bourbon factories, cf. Angela Carola Perrotti, “Le reali manifatture borboniche,” in Storia del Mezzogiorno (Naples, 1991), 649- 695. -

Free Forms of European Skyscrapers
ZNUV 2019;66(3);31-40 31 Joanna Pietrzak, Anna Stefańska Politechnika Warszawska FREE FORMS OF EUROPEAN SKYSCRAPERS Summary One of the advantages of a modern skyscraper is its original form. The determinant of originality is freedom, a departure from rigid rules. The architects ‘play’ with the inspirations in the search for a free form, among others, by entering into dialogue with classic image of a skyscraper, which is reinterpreted or even negated. A large creative potential is associated with a way to define dependence of form and structure. Key words: high-rise building, tall building, skyscraper, Europe, architectural icons, aesthetic expres- sion, game of form and construction. Introduction Over the last 50 years, both the form of a European skyscraper and the social acceptance of such a tall building changed. Skyscrapers have become not only an integral part of the urban surrounding, but also icons of identification of some large cities. The importance of iconic architecture was appreciated after the construction of such objects as the Bilbao museum or the Kunsthaus in Graz. Developers identify the form of the building with a marketing advantage and cooperate with famous architects in order to design original high-rise buildings (Sterlitz 2005). In modern architecture, the originality is determined by the free, i.e. deviating from rules (Słownik Języka Polskiego 2012), form of the building. In searching for such form, archi- tects play with inspirations: they refer to different styles and to unique local conditions. Even 25 years ago, a typical tall building would still be seen as an anonymous workplace. The latest projects are objects of public admiration, oftentimes acting as tourist attractions (Rees et al. -

Rascacielos España En Vertical
reportaje Rascacielos España en Vertical Decía uno de los padres de la arquitectura moderna, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, a propósito de uno de sus edificios de oficinas, que la Arquitectura es “la voluntad de la época traducida a espacio. Viva. Cambiante. Nueva. Ni el ayer ni el mañana, sólo el hoy puede plasmarse (…). Crear la forma desde la esencia del problema con los medios de nuestra época: ésta es nuestra tarea”. Esta reflexión, hecha en una fecha tan lejana para el tipo de arquitectura que nos ocupa como 1923, se mantiene, no obstante, plenamente vigente en una arquitectura, la de los rascacielos, que traduce a espacio las necesidades de una sociedad. Un tipo de arquitectura en el que se dan cita conceptos como fusión de funcionalidad y diseño, sostenibilidad o potenciación de la eficiciencia económica aunando espacios y que deriva, como tendencias más visibles, hacia las construcciones bioclimáticas y la arquitectura dinámica.

Filippo Juvara, Diseña Un Enorme Cuadrilátero De 500 Metros De Lado
AULADADE PALACIO REAL DE MADRID -Arte y Poder- Javier Blanco Planelles A lo largo de la historia de la civilización occidental, el palacio principesco ha sido un poderoso símbolo político y social. Además de servir como residencia del monarca y como centro de gobierno, el palacio constituía la manifestación más expresiva de las riquezas y la gloria obtenida a través del dominio de los hombres y las tierras. Por su propia naturaleza , se convirtió en exponente de los valores de la clase rectora; en él se reunían, ordenaban y expresaban de forma visual una serie de ideas. Brown J., y Ellioth J. H.
