The past half-century of domestic architecture in Colombia involves the works of Rogelio Salmona, Dicken Castro, Hernán Vieco, and Fernando Martínez Sanabria, creators who have given unique identities to their interpretations of the modern home. This tribute reveals the challenges they faced and their remarkable solutions: houses which blend functionalism, creativity, and simplicity in the forging of spaces which are a pleasure to inhabit.

A collection of the best contemporary residential projects designed by emerging and established architects in a range of dramatic settings across Central and South America. Since the modernism pioneered by Oscar Niemeyer in Brazil, Latin America has become one of the world’s most exciting locations for contemporary architecture. The wide architectural range, set amid varied climates, social conditions, and environments, has brought international attention to a continent that’s making a name for itself as a center for innovation and experimentation. This overview showcases the most accomplished and rarely seen contemporary houses, by established names such as Isay Weinfeld, Mathias Klotz, and Marcio Kogan, and rising talents like Pezo von Ellrichshausen and Giancarlo Mazzanti. From Chile’s dramatic coastline to the Amazon rainforest, thirty-eight highly individual houses provide sources of inspiration for architects and interior designers everywhere, and also give insights into Latin America’s unique landscapes and diverse lifestyles. Written for both designers and home-owners, Casa Moderna features an appendix of architectural plans for each of the featured houses. Presenting an in-depth exploration of the technique and culture behind these stunning homes, this book reveals how these remarkable buildings have come to transcend their time and place.

"Form follows function" decía Sullivan. Una propiedad esencial de la arquitectura del siglo XX es que la forma es resultado de la función. La arquitectura funcionalista responde a las necesidades antropológicas del hombre. Por ello, es llamativo que un alto porcentaje de las casas icono del Movimiento Moderno sean hoy en día museos de si mismas y no viviendas en uso ¿Se puede vivir en las casas del Movimiento Moderno? ¿Se pueden conservar sin atentar a su integridad como referentes fundamentales de la arquitectura del siglo XX? La desaparición de la Casa Guzmán de Alejandro de la Sota, bajo el titular "La tiré porque era mía. La casa era fría, triste y me costaba una fortuna mantenerla" subraya la pertinencia de estas preguntas. Descubrimos tres casos de éxito, tres casas italianas de la primera parte del s.XX que, a día de hoy, ¡siguen vivas! ¿Cómo lo consiguieron? Los relatos de Villa Necchi de Portaluppi, Villa Bianca de Terragni y la propia casa de Luigi Figini, hablan de temas centrales en la conservación del Moderno como, la permanencia de la pátina, la imagen o la materialidad original y sostienen aquel ideal moderno que sobrevive al tiempo. Con la ilusión de defender que la recuperación de la función es clave en la conservación del patrimonio moderno doméstico, abordamos la historia de la evolución de las cuatro casas de Sota, de la segunda parte del siglo XX: Casa Velázquez, Casa Varela, Casa Guzmán y Casa Domínguez. Paradójicamente, igual que sucede en la ilustración de la joven-vieja, las casas del Movimiento Moderno, ancianas, preciadas, patrimonio histórico y cultural, pueden seguir siendo jóvenes, casas que funcionan y que suscriben aquel pensamiento de Sullivan.

Welcome to the desert. Welcome home. This visually stunning tour of the world’s most amazing desert homes will inspire you to create an oasis with “desert vibes” wherever you are. Creatives are drawn in by the extreme landscapes and limited resources of the desert; in fact, they’re inspired by them, and the homes they’ve built here prove the power of an oasis. From renovated Airstreams to sprawling, modern stucco, desert has become the new beachfront. In Oasis, artist iO Tillett Wright captures the best of this specific culture that emphasizes living simply, beautifully, and in connection with the earth. He highlights the homes that define this desert mindset, featuring the classics like Georgia O’Keefe’s in Abiquiu, New Mexico, alongside more modern homes such as Michael Barnard’s Solar House in Marfa, Texas. With Casey Dunn’s stunning photography, Oasis will transport you to these relaxing refuges, where you’ll learn what elements create the balance of intentionality, ease, style, and function that these homes exude.

Sanaa’s housing projects, both finished (House A, S House, House in a Plum Grove, Small House and Moriyama House), and unfinished projects (Flower House, Garden & House, Seijo Apartments, Ichikawa Apartments, House in China and Eda Apartments). SANAA's architecture embraces complexities within deceptively simple appearances. It has many elements that are impossible to understand unless actually “experienced”. In contrast with modern architecture, SANAA has many aspects that cannot be revealed in “representative” media such as plans, models, and photographs. The “representations” of their architectural works incorporate ambiguity and chronological elements. This characteristic makes Sanaa one of the most innovative offices in the current architectural panorama.

At the end of the Second World War, America’s newly acquired status of hegemonic power- together with the launch of ambitious international programs such as the Marshall Plan- significantly altered existing transatlantic relations. In this context, Italian and American architectural cultures developed a fragile dialogue characterized by successful exchanges and forms of collaboration but also by reciprocal wariness. The dissemination of models and ideas concerning architecture generated complex effects and frequently led to surprising misinterpretations, obstinate forms of resistance and long negotiations between the involved parties. Issues of continuity and discontinuity dominated Italian culture and society at the time since at stake was the possible balance between allegedly long-established traditions and the prospect of a radical rupture with recent history. Architectural culture often contributed to reach a compromise between very diverging attitudes. Situated in the larger realm of studies on Americanization, this book questions current interpretations of transatlantic relations in architecture. By reconsidering the means and effects of the dialogue that unfolded between the two sides of the Atlantic during the postwar years, the volume analyzes how cultural and formal models were developed in one context and then modified when transferred to a new one as well as the fortune of this cultural exchange in terms of circulation, amplification, and simplification.

Este libro trata de los lugares de los doméstico en la modernidad; va dirigido a lectores interesados en la arquitectura de la casa, y en él se van a encontrar respuestas a la cuestión de si la vivienda moderna llegó a existir o no. Tras un breve recorrido por ciertos antecedentes decimonónicos, se enuncian las tareas a las que se enfrentó la nueva arquitectura de la vivienda. A partir de ahí se hace una descripción de los tipos y mecanismos de referencia para la definición de la casa moderna y algunas de las más conocidas casas experimentales de las primeras décadas del siglo XX, lo que permite documentar sus verdaderas posibilidades. Se muestra luego que donde la investigación arquitectónica resultó ser más rica fue en la búsqueda de modelos de agregación de unidades de vivienda, con todo el aparato experimental y político que permitió su época. Un recorrido por los nuevos equipamientos, acompañado por una mirada a la cultura japonesa, permite descubrir algunos mecanismos aplicados a la variabilidad del espacio y el tiempo domésticos. Finalmente se demostrará que la pregunta por la casa moderna tuvo efectivamente respuestas.

Como ensinar e aprender história da arquitetura? Para responder essa inquietação de maneira certeira, são revisitados oito importantes livros panorâmicos sobre a arquitetura brasileira, produzidos em diferentes momentos do século XX e início do XXI. A organizadora e sua equipe de pesquisa exploram a possibilidade de combinar a medição quantitativa com interpretações de natureza mais subjetiva, revelando paradoxos complexos, não intuitivos, e talvez inesperados, dando forma a alguns dos "vazios do cânon" Este livro apresenta um conjunto metodológico de ferramentas para a revisão crítica de ideias repetidas e axiomas convertidos em cânones, possibilitando questionamentos e a abertura de novos caminhos. As tabelas e gráficos produzidos no livro são livremente interpretados e contraponteados pela visão de dezoito autores e autoras que contribuíram para o livro, desde jovens pesquisadores a renomados especialistas convidados/as. How to teach and learn architectural history? To answer this question, eight important panoramic books on Brazilian architecture, produced at different times in the twentieth century and early twenty-first, are revisited. The organizer and her research team explored the possibility of combining quantitative measurement extracted from these books with interpretations of a more subjective nature, revealing complex, non-intuitive, and unexpected paradoxes, shaping some of the "canon's voids". The book presents a methodological set of tools for the critical revision of repeated ideas and axioms converted into canons, allowing for questioning, and opening new paths. The tables and graphs produced in the book are freely interpreted and counterpointed by the views of eighteen contributing authors, ranging from young researchers to renowned guest experts. (Marcio Cotrim, Prof. Dr. Arquiteto, FAU-UFBA).
