The publication consisting of almost six hundred pages presents interviews with thirty architects, which Belogolovsky conducted in the framework of his long-term, international activities as a curator and author.

Book excerpt: "Never before have so many buildings been constructed as today, and never has architecture had so many technological and design possibilities at its disposal. And yet there is a sense of unease about contemporary architecture. In their book, Sergei Tchoban and Vladimir Sedov show how in modern times we have lost the balance between outstanding works of architecture and the background structures that surround them, with every building striving to assert itself in relation to all the others - to drown them out if it can. Yet the modern age is certainly capable of developing a harmony of contrasts - it has everything it needs at its disposal. After taking the reader on a foray through 2,500 years of architectural history, the authors arrive at the anomaly of modernism. They show what contemporary architecture must take into account if it is to achieve a satisfactory overall architectural impression that is harmonious in an entirely new way"--Back cover.

Book excerpt: A collection of sketches and watercolours by Mikkel Frost, co-founder of Danish architecture firm CEBRA, champions drawing as a communication tool. ‘Architects do not actually build buildings,’ says Frost. ‘What we build is an idea.

An index containing colour photographs and renders of their works further illuminates how the drawings are translated into reality. Introducing the book, a written version of Frost’s TEDx talk Let your fingers do the talking elaborates on the book’s impetus: to bring a spotlight to the craft of drawing as a powerful tool for creation and communication. Features • A collection of 200+ sketches and watercolours by Danish architect Mikkel Frost. • A curated selection of drawings is organized into 20 sections, each referring to one of the projects by internationally recognized architecture firm CEBRA. • The book provides insight into the architect’s creative process, illustrating how an idea develops into a well-defined concept. • In a compact and handy format, the book champions drawing as a powerful and important communication tool for everyone.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sergei Tchoban is a German architect of Russian origin, who has won numerous awards and who works and teaches internationally. In addition to his architectural practice with Tchoban Voss Architekten in Germany and Moscow-based firm SPEECH, he has created an impressive number of drawings which oscillate between personal artistic expression and urban, architectural fantasies. In 2013, his Tchoban Foundation opened the Museum for Architectural Drawing in Berlin to provide a home for his first-class collection of architectural drawings that span several centuries. Alongside the permanent collection, it puts on three to four temporary exhibitions every year. In this book, Tchoban engages in four discussions with renowned Berlin-based architectural curator Kristin Feireiss, talking for the first time about his fascination with architecture, drawing, and collecting, and how he sees the world, the medium of drawing, and architecture. These discussions are supplemented with an essay by writer and broadcaster Deyan Sudjic, former director of the London Design Museum. Offering uniquely comprehensive and personal insight into Tchoban's thoughts and working methods, this book casts a light on Tchoban's frequent involvement with both Russia and Germany as architect, artist, and facilitator.
Download or read book Radical Architectural Drawing written by Neil Spiller and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2022-09-19 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a newfound interest in architectural drawing. Some of the most forward-looking architects worldwide are reinventing it to discover the radical possibilities of contemporary architecture as a rich mix of the virtual and the actual. Architectural drawing is adapting to compensate for these new changes to the discipline, and is being used to speculate on new paradigms of space and representation. This AD seeks to showcase the architects who are pushing the envelope of drawing in extraordinary ways, and their insights into architecture’s future spatial dexterity. The issue is built around an international group of architects involved in an ongoing KU Leuven Faculty of Architecture international drawing research project, who are creating new drawing methodologies in new and exciting realms. Their projects are written about from the perspective of architectural representation by critics and commentators from across the globe, illustrating a cornucopia of graphic verve and talent in this highly contemporary and thought-provoking issue.
