Summary:
This volume presents, in a sequence of ten conversations, Bernard Tschumi's autobiography in architecture, from his conceptual proposals of the early 1970s through his major current buildings and projects. Tschumi approaches his work as the gradual construction of an argument. The conversations, drawn from a six-year series of interviews with critic Enrique Walker, represent that argument in an analysis of Tschumi’s writings, buildings, and other works. The conversations offer a clear-eyed analysis of Tschumi’s work, suggesting the interwoven relationship between the strategies of each individual design and the formation of the architect’s overarching theoretical project. Among the major works of architecture investigated are Parc de la Villette in Paris; Le Fresnoy National Studio for Contemporary Arts in Tourcoing, France; and the New Acropolis Museum in Athens. Also included are Tschumi's conceptual works and writings such as "The Manhattan Transcripts" and "Architecture and Disjunction".

Summary:
From 2008 to 2010, Madrid based architects Luis M. Mansilla and Emilio Tunon held the Jean Labatut Visiting Professorship at the Princeton School of Architecture. More than a collection of student work, From Rules to Constraints is a wide ranging reflection on teaching, design practice, history and the city. Focusing on three sites at three distinct scales, this book examines the constraints of the architectural project social, political, historical, and environmental in order to create new rules for working. Examining both their teaching methods and Mansilla + Tunon`s own design work, the book presents the design process as an ongoing conversation between the building and the environment, between freedom and limits, and between the decided and undecided.

Summary:
Since the beginning of the century, the field of architecture has fervently turned its attention to documenting the contemporary urban condition. Every city has been examined as a repository of architectural concepts, scrutinized as an urban manifesto, and recorded as a series of found objects. "The Ordinary" articulates a potential genealogy for this practice and for the(...)

Summary:
Since the beginning of the century, the field of architecture has fervently turned its attention to documenting the contemporary urban condition. Every city has been examined as a repository of architectural concepts, scrutinized as an urban manifesto, and recorded as a series of found objects. "The Ordinary" articulates a potential genealogy for this practice and for the genre of books derived from it. Organized around conversations with the authors of three seminal texts that document the city—Denise Scott Brown's "Learning from Las Vegas" (1972), Rem Koolhaas's "Delirious New York" (1978), and Yoshiharu Tsukamoto's "Made in Tokyo" (2001)—this volume traces the history of these "books on cities" by examining the material they recorded, the findings they established, the arguments they advanced, and the projects they promoted. These conversations also question the assumptions underlying this practice and whether in its ubiquity it still remains a space of opportunity.
