Learning from Las Vega 
Robert Venturi, Denise Scott Brown, Steven Izenour

简介 

Description

1972年，《Learning from Las Vegas》引发了一场关于外观的有益的争论，呼吁建筑师们更多地接受“普通人”的品味和价值观，在树立“英雄”形象时不要太谦虚。

这一修订版包括旧版第一部分的全文——“on the Las Vegas strip”、第二部分——“Ugly and Ordinary Architecture, or the Decorated Shed”、以及从第一部分的研究成果中归纳出建筑的象征主义和城市扩张的象征主义。

Learning from Las Vegas created a healthy controversy on its appearance in 1972, calling for architects to be more receptive to the tastes and values of "common" people and less immodest in their erections of "heroic".

This revision includes the full texts of Part I of the original, on the Las Vegas strip, and Part II, "Ugly and Ordinary Architecture, or the Decorated Shed," a generalization from the findings of the first part on symbolism in architecture and the iconography of urban sprawl.

The Anti-Aesthetic
Hal Foster

简介 

Description

《The Anti-Aesthetic》是二十世纪后期文化批判开创性收藏，被《乡村之声》（Village Voice）评为年度最佳书籍，被认为是当代文化批判的圣经。

在过去的二十年中，哈尔·福斯特（Hal Foster）突破了文化批判的界限，确立了一个有利的起点，艺术家，赞助人和批判家看似迥异的议程从此具有明显的关联性。在《The Anti-Aesthetic》中，让·鲍德里亚（Jean Baudrillard），罗莎琳德·克劳斯（Rosalind Krauss），弗雷德里克·詹姆森（Fredric Jameson）和爱德华·赛义德（Edward Said）等杰出的评论家考虑了从约翰·凯奇（John Cage）的著作到辛迪·谢尔曼（Cindy Sherman）的电影剧照，再到芭芭拉·克鲁格（Barbara Kruger）的拼贴画的各种后现代文化产物。《The Anti-Aesthetic》为读者提供了强有力的介绍，也为那些已经在讨论后现代艺术，文化和批判的人们提供了参考。

The Anti-Aesthetic is a handsome new edition of the seminal collection of late twentieth-century cultural criticism. The Anti-Aesthetic was named a "Best Book of the Year" by the "Village Voice" and considered a bible of contemporary cultural criticism.

For the past twenty years, Hal Foster has pushed the boundaries of cultural criticism, establishing a vantage point from which the seemingly disparate agendas of artists, patrons, and critics have a telling coherence. In “The Anti-Aesthetic”, preeminent critics such as Jean Baudrillard, Rosalind Krauss, Fredric Jameson, and Edward Said consider the full range of postmodern cultural production, from the writing of John Cage, to Cindy Sherman's film stills, to Barbara Kruger's collages. “The Anti-Aesthetic” provides a strong introduction for newcomers and a point of reference for those already engaged in discussions of postmodern art, culture, and criticism.

The Laws of  Simplicity
John Maeda

简介 

Description

作者Maeda是麻省理工学院媒体实验室的教授，也是世界知名的平面设计师。他探讨了一个问题，即我们如何重新定义“改进”的概念，以便它并不总是意味着更多，更新的东西。

In "The Laws of  Simplicity", John Maeda provides ten rules to balance the simplicity and complexity of business, technology, and design, that is, a guide to reducing demand and actually acquiring more demand. Through ten simplified business combing, covering the rules of technology and design, teach us how to spend less but spend more. Let us understand that simplicity equals reason.

Maeda—a professor in MIT's Media Lab and a world-renowned graphic designer—explores the question of how we can redefine the notion of "improved" so that it doesn't always mean something more, something added on.

Tooling,
Aranda/Lasch

简介 

Description

《Tooling》探索由计算机代码生成的模式，这些代码又创建了组装项目的组织模板。通过公开共享这些代码，作者寻求促进对其方法的进一步研究，从而允许其他架构师学习和发展更关键、更富洞察力的几何形状和样式。

We all know that today's architectural design has moved from the sketchpad to the screen. The era of the Mayline and the drafting board now seems downright Paleolithicbut techniques for using the computer not just as a tool for rendering but as a generative instrument remain woefully unexplored. In Tooling, the latest installment in our renowned Pamphlet Architecture series, the technologically progressive young firm Aranda/Lasch illustrates how advanced computational methods and algorithmic codes can be used to foster architectural design.

Tooling explores patterns generated by computer codes that in turn create an organizational template assembling projects. By openly sharing these codes, the authors seek to foster further investigation into their methods, allowing other architects to model and evolve more critical and insightful geometries and patterns.

The Landscape Urbanism Reader,
Charles Waldheim

简介

Description 

随着人口的分散和城市的不断扩张，二十世纪的城市规划者面临的挑战是不仅需要组织人，而且还需要组织空间本身。因此，出现了一种新的建筑论述：景观都市主义。

在《The Landscape Urbanism Reader》一书中，作者查尔斯·瓦尔德海姆（Charles Waldheimwho）就处于这一新运动的最前沿，在本书中汇集了许多领域顶尖从业人员的权威论文集。包括了由全球各学科的知名人物James Corner，Linda Pollak，Alan Berger，Pierre Blanger，Julia Czerniak等撰写的14篇论文、当代环境相关的议题、以及对这一相对较新领域的抱负。《The Landscape Urbanism Reader》是对城市未来发展的鼓舞人心的信号，也是学生，教师，建筑师和城市规划师必不可少的参考资料。

With populations decentralizing and cities sprawling ever-outward, twenty-first-century urban planners are challenged by the need to organize not just people but space itself. Hence a new architectural discourse has emerged: landscape urbanism.

In The Landscape Urbanism Reader, Charles Waldheimwho is at the forefront of this new movement thas assembled the definitive collection of essays by many of the field's top practitioners. Fourteen essays written by leading figures across a range of disciplines and from around the worldincluding James Corner, Linda Pollak, Alan Berger, Pierre Blanger, Julia Czerniak, and morecapture the origins, the contemporary milieu, and the aspirations of this relatively new field. The Landscape Urbanism Reader is an inspiring signal to the future of city making as well as an indispensablereference for students, teachers, architects, and urban planners.

Change by Design
Tim Brown

简介 

Description

“设计思想”的主题由商学院引进，随着发展，其理念逐渐在公司以及越来越多的媒体中流行，这在很大程度上归功于领先的设计公司IDEO及其著名的首席执行官Tim Brown的工作。本书展示了设计的技术和策略如何涉及业务的各个层面。

创新的神话是，才华横溢的想法完全由天才的思想形成。而现实情况是，大多数创新都来自经过严格审查的过程，通过该过程可以识别并提出出色的构想，然后再将其构想为新产品和新功能。

《Change by Design》解释了设计思想，即通过协作过程来利用设计师的敏感度和方法来满足人们的需求，不仅是技术上可行的，而且在底线上也是可行的。设计思想将need转化为demand。这是一种以人为本的解决问题的方法，可以帮助人们和组织变得更具创新性和创造力。

The theme of "design thinking" was introduced in business schools. With the development of its concept, it has gradually become popular in the company and in more and more popular media. This is largely due to the leading design company IDEO and its famous chief The work of executive Tim Brown. This book shows how design techniques and strategies involve all aspects of the business.

The myth of innovation is that brilliant ideas leap fully formed from the minds of geniuses. The reality is that most innovations come from a process of rigorous examination through which great ideas are identified and developed before being realized as new offerings and capabilities.

“Change by Design” explains design thinking, the collaborative process by which the designer’s sensibilities and methods are employed to match people’s needs, not only with what is technically feasible, but what is viable to the bottom line. Design thinking converts need into demand. It’s a human-centered approach to problem solving that helps people and organizations become more innovative and more creative.

Informal
Cecil Balmond

简介 

Description

Balmond正在从与其他建筑师一起工作的结构工程师过渡到有独立想法的的建筑师。他的结构思维与该领域其他人的不同之处，在于他对工程师对建筑贡献的完全创新的构想。建筑方案的可塑性通过其结构设计的决定性得到提升和增强。因此，结构与建筑之间的界限变得越来越模糊。通过参考八个开创性项目，在《Informal》中详细解释了此过程。Balmond阐明了他的工程和建筑解决方案的理论基础，他的草图超越了纯粹的技术插图，这些对于他的工作都起到了至关重要的作用。《Informal》邀请读者重新思考他们对建筑，设计和工程之间关系的理解。

Balmond is making the transition from structural engineer working alongside other architects to an architect in his own right. His structural thinking differs from that of others in his field, in its completely innovative conception of the engineer's contribution to architecture. The plasticity of architectural plans is enhanced through a decisive promotion of their structural designs. The borderline between structure and architecture thus becomes increasingly blurred. This process is explained in detail in "Informal" by reference to eight seminal projects. Balmond elucidates the theoretical basis of his engineering and architectural solutions, and his sketches transcend purely technical illustration - they are key to his approach. "Informal" invites readers to rethink their understanding of the relationships between architecture, design and engineering.
