The Beauty of Impermanence is now available worldwide! The Beauty of Impermanence is a scholarly documentation of the 2023 Sharjah Architecture Triennial. It explores architectural responses to sustainability, resource scarcity, and adaptability, highlighting the contrasting resource management strategies of the global North and South over the last four hundred years. The North exploited resources through a belief in endless abundance and technological advances, underpinned by religious and mythological justifications for colonialism and slavery. The South, characterized by resource scarcity, has innovated within these constraints, developing adaptable, sustainable solutions that may offer a blueprint for future global resource management. The book advocates for a shift away from a consumption-driven approach to one that is ecologically and ethically responsible, urging a collective resolve to create systemic change for a sustainable future. It is structured around the thematic strands of “Renewed Contextual,” “Extraction Politics,” and “Intangible Bodies” and features essays by noted scholars and practitioners.

Back in Stock – Esch Sintzel Architekten. Bauten und Projekte ist zurück! «Dieses Buch ist keine Lobeshymne, sondern eine fundierte Auseinandersetzung mit der Frage, wie Architektur sich im Spannungsfeld von Bestand, Gesellschaft und Umwelt behaupten kann. Ein Beitrag für alle, die über das Bauen hinausdenken.» Swiss Arc Mag «In diesem Sinne erteilt das Werk von Esch Sintzel – und mit ihm dieses Buch – eine Lektion in Sachen Detaillierung und Diskretion. Es erinnert daran, dass qualitätsvolle Architektur kreative Denkarbeit und Handwerk jenseits des Scheinwerferlichts ist.» swiss-architects «Ein Büro mit prägender Rolle im Schweizer Diskurs.» Hochparterre *** Herausgegeben von Martin Tschanz @martin.tschanz @eschsintzelarchitekten @studiosintzel @studioeschrickenbacher @paolacorsiniphotographer @philipheckhausen @georgaerni @kusterfrey Gestaltet von Schön & Berger Mehrsprachige Ausgabe – Deutsch & Englisch! #eschsintzel #parkbooks #reprint #backinstock #architekturbuch #monographie
Rural Vision. Creating Dialogues through Architecture Christoph Hesse Architects are based in Berlin and Korbach, a small town in the northwestern part of the German federal state Hesse. This rural area in the green heart of Germany is the location of most of the projects the firm has realized since its establishment in 2010. Yet, occasionally, they do plant their rural concepts into an urban context. Christoph Hesse Architects and their friends see their designs as open places of culture. Rural Vision is the first monograph on Christoph Hesse Architects. It also constitutes a manifesto that illustrates how collaborative projects create social, ecological, and economic points of contact and dialogue. Moreover, they promote sustainable change that not only improves people’s lives in rural areas but also redefines change as a source of innovation and social progress.

DEON. A Workbook Sketches and drawings are the main lens through which this first full monograph on DEON Architekten’s work explores 19 of their buildings and projects from the years 2000 to 2025. They range from a minor intervention in an existing structure to major industrial plants, from remodeling a private residence to a large housing development, research commissions, and submissions to public competitions. Divided into four chapters—Shape, Building Redevelopment, Interaction, Large Form—the volume focuses on the diverse processes that characterize the construction of architecture, the joint search for solutions, the flow of design.

Josef Frank – Spaces Josef Frank (1885–1967) ranks among Europe’s most significant architects of the twentieth century, and his designs for furniture and textiles have made him one of the eminent figures of modernist interior design. Though there have been many studies of Frank’s architecture previously, Josef Frank—Spaces is the first comprehensive book to look specifically at Frank’s single-family houses. Architects Mikael Bergquist and Olof Michélsen explore the evolution of Frank’s designs for single-family homes over the years, and they investigate the influences that shaped his work, such as Adolf Loos’s “spatial plan” concept, Le Corbusier’s ideas, and Hermann Muthesius’s groundbreaking book “The English House.” The authors also look at Frank’s architectural concepts of movement and his use of stairs in residential buildings. The book includes an in-depth examination of six of Frank’s houses, including both built projects—Villas Claeson and Wehtje in Falsterbo, Sweden, and Villa Beer in Vienna—and unrealized ones—House for Vienna XIII, House MS in Los Angeles, and Fantasy House 9 (Accidental House). This section includes images and plans of each of the houses and a close analysis of their specific characteristics. A complete catalog of Frank’s single-family houses rounds out the book.
