Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The work of Massimiliano and Doriana Fuksas enjoys a well-earned reputation for the artistic talent it expresses and for its capacity to surprise with the most risky and spectacular projects. With offices in Rome, Paris and Shenzen, the Fuksases have completed projects of contrasting scales and typologies: airports, theatrical scenographies, urban planning, large infrastructure, housing projects This companion book to Fuksas Building features works by the studio which are focused on product design, interior design, scenography, furniture and jewelry. Perhaps the less known aspect of Fuksas work, their product design emphasizes a natural condition in changing scales, materials and uses. Research is also very present behind every piece. The richly illustrated projects include the Armani stores, the Alessi collection and the furniture for Haworth Castelli, among many others.
Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The city is the point of departure and arrival for the architectural experience. It is, therefore, a palpable, external fact as well as a product of the mind, an abstraction. This book attempts to recreate this trajectory and to describe this exchange between the mind and the world through the traces it has produced. Two separate moments lie at the heart of this book s very structure and shape: one when the city is the site of an experience and of reflection and the other, when architects modify this site through a new project. The white not Elektronisches Buch contain writings, reflections, and observations collected over a ten-year period about our urban experiences. In fact, they hold the names of the cities that gave rise to them. These notes were often written during our travels, on the occasion of conferences or projects. Very importantly, though, they do not aspire to certainty; rather, they are a collection of questions and hypotheses. The black not Elektronisches Buch instead seek to delineate the scope of our research and to describe architecture as we practice it, namely as a collaborative effort, where each person s ideas and experiences form part of our shared vision and designs.
