This edition features the work of two Swiss offices, Buchner Bründler Architekten and AFGH(Andreas Fuhrimann and Gabrielle Hächler). Addressing the idea of Swiss architecture assynonymous with accuracy, quality, functional clarity, and having a strong formal identity, it goesa step further to examine its balance between the exceptional quality of craft, manufacturingtechniques, and the use of state-of-the-art technology. The architecture is thus imbued with ahuge technical rigour and pure formal and sensory awareness. With ten projects by BuchnerBründler and six by AFGH, ranging from small- to large-scale, plus an essay by José ManuelPedreirinho.

This publication provides a new perspective on the cultural landscapes of mining across theprovince of Asturias in northwest Spain. These areas, after undergoing an intense process ofindustrialisation, have changed considerably within just a few decades. What were once naturalvalleys with rural economic and social structures came to host bustling, dense urbanagglomerations. As a result, hybrid architectures have emerged, mutating artefacts which, despitethe invisibility of their inevitable marginality, can offer interesting lessons in architecture today.Richly illustrated with photographs and diagrams, it features contributions from noted artists and
architects.

Anne Lacaton & Jean-Philippe Vassal - Freedom Of UseSternberg Press 2015 ISBN 9783956791734 Acqn 25522Pb 14x21cm 96pp 28ills 13col £8.95
Edited by Jennifer Sigler and Leah Whitman-Salkin
“Nothing in the architecture of Lacaton and Vassal is what it looks like at first glance.”— Iñaki Ábalos, introducing Anne Lacaton and Jean-Philippe Vassal, Harvard UniversityGraduate School of Design, March 24, 2015
Anne Lacaton and Jean-Philippe Vassal are known for an architecture that privileges inhabitants’freedom and pleasure through generous, open designs. The Paris-based architects opened their2015 lecture at Harvard University with a manifesto: study and create an inventory of the existingsituation; densify without compressing individual space; promote user mobility, access, choice;
and most importantly, never demolish. Freedom of Use reflects on these core values to present afluid narrative of Lacaton and Vassal’s oeuvre, articulated through processes of accumulation,addition, and extension. The architects describe built and unbuilt work, from a house in Nigermade of little more than branches; to the expansive Nantes School of Architecture; to a publicsquare in Bordeaux where, after months of study, their design solution was: do nothing.
Lacaton and Vassal’s principle of doubling space is echoed in the book’s treatment ofphotography: black-and-white exterior shots that run alongside the text form a dialogue withcorresponding full-colour photographs of each interior, gathered at the end of the book.
