Résumé:
''Making Marks'' showcases the private sketchbooks of the world's most visually inventive architects, revealing just how much drawing by hand informs great contemporary architecture. Taking a post-digital perspective, the sixty renowned architects whose work is collected here show how drawing and new forms of manual presentation have been refined since the reawakening of this basic technique. Notepads, stacks of paper, pencils and fine-point pens are as present in the architect's studio as phalanxes of screens. Revealing why and how hand-drawing still matters, this global survey presents the freehand drawings, vibrant watercolours and abstract impressions of rising talents and well-known names, including Jun Igarashi and Brian MacKay-Lyons.

Résumé:
Every architect dreams of a perfect client, and every client dreams of a perfect architect. Alas, these relationships don't always work out to everyone's expectations. But when they do - when there are shared ideas and the communication flows - the results can be spectacular. The New Modern House features forty new buildings where the synergy between the right designer and the right client resulted in works that surpass everyone's expectations. The book is divided into five thematic chapters - conditions, materials, environment, budget, and aesthetics - and each contain eight case studies. These include Rafael Vinoly's Piano House in New York; Sean Godsell's Peninsula House in Australia; and Ahadu Abaineh's Tree House in Ethiopia, among others. Beautifully produced, The New Modern House captures these noteworthy designs with a wealth of colour photography, plans, and drawings, and makes an ideal book for anybody dreaming of the perfect house.

Résumé:
The resurgence of drawing is not merely a retrograde trend, but an affirmation of the continued importance of sketching as part of the design process. Architects' Sketchbooks presents pages from the private sketchbooks of a wide international spectrum of architects, who use drawing to express their spatial ideas while revealing their unique thought processes. Sketches from some 85 architects and studios are featured, including Will Alsop, Architects Atelier Ryo Abe, Shigeru Ban, Elemental, Thom Faulders, Norman Foster, Carlos Jiménez, Alessandro Mendini and Office dA. Their works range from simple line drawings and clear perspectives to more abstract, artistic compositions, from quick freehand to measured mapping, from spontaneous squiggles on scrap paper to careful drawings on art paper. Accompanying texts by editor Will Jones include comments by the architects and profile how they use sketches to help evolve their initial inspirations and concepts into more developed ideas, revealing the artistry behind the built world.

Résumé:
La plupart des ouvrages consacrés à l'architecture présentent des projets aboutis, que ce soit sous forme de dessins finalisés, souvent réalisés par ordinateur, de maquettes finales ou même de photographies de la construction achevée. Cependant ces différentes visualisations ne disent rien du processus de conception du projet, rien de sa véritable genèse. Or croquis, ébauches, esquisses et dessins préliminaires jouent un rôle primordial dans la création architecturale, et c'est souvent dans ces premiers traits tracés sur la feuille que naît le concept directeur du projet à venir. Le présent ouvrage nous invite à un fascinant voyage au coeur même de la création architecturale en donnant à voir, souvent pour la première fois, les carnets de croquis de 85 architectes.
