Robin Boyd: Spatial Continuity.
"Australian architect Robin Boyd (1919–1971) advocated tirelessly for the voice of Australian architects so that there could be an architecture that might speak to Australian conditions and sensibilities.His legacy continues in the work of contemporary Australian architects yet also prompts a way forward for architecture particularly in relationship to the landscapes they inhabit through a quality of continuous space found in his work where the buildings are spatially reliant and sympathetic to the places they occupy.
A selection of 22 projects are documented comprehensively in this book for the first time. This slice through Boyd’s body of work reveals a gifted, complex and contemporary thinker." (Routledge)
" "A good city is like a good party - you stay for longer than you plan," says Danish architect, Jan Gehl. He believes that good architecture is not about form, but about the interaction between form and life. Over the last 50 years, Gehl has changed the way that we think about architecture and city planning - moving from the Modernist separation of uses to a human-scale approach inviting people to use their cities."
"Design is everywhere. Graphic design enters into everything. This is the scope of designer Steven Heller's latest essay anthology that covers the spectrum of graphic design and related art and culture. Looking at design as practice, language, culture, and power, each of the forty-plus essays is a self contained story".

"Catalog of an exhibition held at the Power Station of Art, Shanghai, May 16-Aug. 2015"

"The issue contains recent projects and relevant voices such as those of Richard Sennett, Kiel Moe, Salmaan Craig and Inaki Abalos who from different spheres warn of the importance of the interior and of the profound knowledge of materials.

A+T Solid 'Interior Matters', 47
"The issue contains recent projects and relevant voices such as those of Richard Sennett, Kiel Moe, Salmaan Craig and Inaki Abalos who from different spheres warn of the importance of the interior and of the profound knowledge of materials. On the contrary architects are to become mere personal shoppers for their clients."
"Today's students of architecture, interior design, and landscape design need to master the art of marketing themselves via multiple print and digital formats. This third edition of Design Portfolios reflects contemporary portfolio practices and enables students to create portfolios that serve as both evolving collections of creative solutions to design problems and evidence of their abilities to visually relay messages."

Along with thirty-two leading scholars and journalists, the head of the library and research at the Designmuseum Danmark in Copenhagen, Lars Dybdahl, advances into the fascinating history of the individuals objects."
"Respect, responsibility, and honesty sound great, but they're big abstract ideas that seem completely clear until we're asked to define and apply them in the complicated, messy, human situations of real life. This book aims to provide practical guidance we can use in the work we do everyday."
