The Craft of Place. Mork-Ulnes Architects Mork-Ulnes Architects is an internationally operating architecture firm with offices in San Francisco and Oslo. They approach projects with both Scandinavian practicality and a Californian can-do spirit of innovation, resulting in buildings that are characterized by both playfulness and restraint. The Craft of Place is Mork-Ulnes Architects’ first monograph. In a reflective manner structured around themes of materials, traditions, sustainability, scale, and light, this work explores the firm’s approach to integrating architecture within diverse environments. The book delves into their method of balancing object and landscape, an approach rooted in the distinct cultural topographies of California and Norway, discussing as well the influence of local vernacular and materials. The beautifully designed and lavishly illustrated volume showcases Mork-Ulnes Architects’ dedication to detail, context, and the evolution of their architecture through the interplay of tradition and innovation.

Here the architects showcase 28 designs they have realized in Paris and the surrounding area, all described in detail with texts, photographs and plans. This is supplemented by a complete illustrated catalogue of ChartierDalix’s projects since 2008, amounting to a beautifully crafted visual archive of built works. ChartierDalix, founded in 2008 by Frédéric Chartier and Pascale Dalix, can look back on a successful first twelve years of design practice, having garnered attention in various international competitions and won several awards.

Drifting Symmetries. Projects, Provocations, and other Enduring Models by Weiss/Manfredi In an era when the dual challenges of climate change and social isolation loom large, Drifting Symmetries emerges as a pivotal exploration of architecture’s role in shaping a sustainable and connected future. Weiss/Manfredi’s groundbreaking work transcends the boundaries between landscape, infrastructure, and architecture by reinventing sites in response to environmental and social challenges. Presented in this comprehensive volume of projects and parallel research, their work demonstrates a multidisciplinary approach that invents new settings for public life by exploring the gradient between nature and architecture. Featuring Weiss/Manfredi’s most acclaimed built works alongside historical precedents and insights from Thom Mayne, Barry Bergdoll, Walter Hood, Nader Tehrani, Tatiana Bilbao, James Corner, Meejin Yoon, Rahul Mehrotra, Hashim Sarkis, Sarah Whiting, and many others, Drifting Symmetries is more than a showcase of projects; it’s a manual for expanding the terrain of contemporary architecture to construct more resilient settings for contemporary life. Drifting Symmetries was chosen for The Editors’ Year-End Picks for the Holiday Season of the Architectural Record by Matthew Marani: “The book is Weiss/Manfredi’s first monograph in 15 years—and clearly the architect duo used that hiatus to radically reimagine how their buildings could be presented in such a format.” By Marion Weiss and Michael A.

Highlights from our backlist: history and present of pioneering housing design in the Netherlands Dick van Gameren, a partner with the renowned Dutch architecture firm Mecanoo, has engaged in housing design for the past twenty-five years through his work as an architect as well as in his research and teaching at TU Delft’s Global Housing Study Center. In this book, he presents around forty of his own projects in this field, through concise texts and photographs, as well as plans and drawings, grouped to illustrate specific aspects of housing design: Streets and Squares, Courtyards and Patios, Gardens, Halls, the Fireplace, Walls, and Roofs. Together, they constitute a multifaceted catalog of housing typologies. Dutch Dwellings is an inspiring read for anyone involved in housing design today.

Center and Periphery. Five Houses by Mikael Bergquist This book brings together five vacation homes in Sweden designed by Stockholm-based architect Mikael Bergquist. Realized over more than two decades, they are all located in the Swedish countryside and rooted in the Nordic tradition of timber construction and the simplicity and economy of Sweden’s historic farm buildings. Bergquist’s great attention to detail and careful choice of materials characterize these houses. They are united also by a close relationship to the surrounding landscape and nature, which is enhanced as an experience by the concepts of movement and the placement of passages between the outside and inside.

The Art of Architectural Grafting is among the winners of the 2024 Architecture Book of the Year Award! “This is a charming, well written book by a clever and accomplished architect. The narrative and delightful illustrations are both useful and helpful. they take the metaphor of tree-grafting to the adaptation of existing buildings and extensions of urban areas. It can also be read as, not only inventive use of timber, but also as a valuable treatise in the low-carbon re-use of building materials generally. A good read!” The jury has just announced that The Art of Architectural Grafting has won the 2024 Architecture Book of the Year Award 2024 in the category Technical. We are delighted and send our congratulations to all who contributed to this outstanding achievement! In this book, Jeanne Gang, one of America’s most distinguished contemporary architects, proposes applying the plant cultivation technique of grafting to architecture and urban design as a way of rethinking adaptive reuse and combatting climate change. Grafting is the process of connecting two separate living plants—one old and one new—so they can grow and thrive as one. This ancient practice continues to be performed today in search of more fruitful, palatable, and resilient varieties of plants. By Jeanne Gang @studiogang @jeanne_gang @gugler_kommunikationshaus @juliecirelli @alissanderson Book design by Elektrosmog @maroc_esmog @elektrosmog_zurich @olamarinella The book is available worldwide in both English and French editions!
