• Exciting projEcts by top dEsign firms from around thE world<br />
• full-color plus floor plans and construction information<br />
Various prestigious architects present their most recent creations for<br />
apartment buildings, from the most innovative and avant-garde proposals,<br />
to those that attempt to create spaces whose personalities adapt to their<br />
contents. Conventional vertical dwellings, buildings for specific groups<br />
and residential complexes share a common spirit: rigour, imagination and<br />
respect for both the persons who will occupy them and the enviroment in<br />
which they are located. The works in this book, provide stimulating answers,<br />
ingenious solutions, unexpected points of view and proposals that will<br />
without doubt influence the conception of residential architecture.<br />
EDUARD BROTO, Trained as an Agricultural Engineer and holder of a PhD in<br />
Architecture, Eduard Broto has gathered a wide experience in both areas. This makes<br />
him something of a unique reference in the field of architecture for the future. His<br />
outlook and guidelines have had a significant influence within the sphere of creative<br />
city planning for a sustainable future. The propositions he presents us here show how<br />
areas of great urban density can harbour sustainable environments within architecture<br />
and design of the highest level.<br />

Minimizing environmental impact, recycling materials, energy efficiency<br />
and rainwater collection are just some of the terms that determine the<br />
work of many of today’s architects. The field of architecture is becoming<br />
increasingly aware that sustainability is much more than just a passing<br />
trend; rather it is a necessity if we want to be optimistic about our future.<br />
Particular emphasis is placed on innovative ideas, new techniques and<br />
the most efficient energy systems. All the projects presented in this book<br />
have been carried out by prestigious architecture firms whose work is<br />
known and respected throughout the world.<br />

Cities don’t have to be faceless lines of gray boxes. City Embellishments<br />
Barcelona presents dozens of fresh ideas for bringing big cities back to<br />
a human scale. Small details like a carved facade, a tiny green space,<br />
benches, touches of bold color, a sheltering doorway, planters, and<br />
more. Each of these warm, distintive touches is expertly explained by<br />
the best authority available: the designing architects themselves.<br />

A highly practical and instructive sourcebook following each step of the<br />

especially tricky sites. Projects include real “cliffhangers” that seem to<br />

plots hemmed in on all sides. Particular emphasis is placed on the<br />
engineering techniques, construction processes and materials employed<br />
to pull off these architectural acrobatics, making this an endless source of<br />
crucial information for any architectural professional or student.<br />

Rochman Residence<br />
Pacific Palisades, California<br />
Photographs: Undine Pröhl<br />
Located high above the Pacific Coast Highway in the hills of the Pacific<br />
Palisades area of Los Angeles, the Rochman Residence is an extensive<br />
renovation of a late 50’s house. The house sits on the edge of a downhill<br />
slope with spectacular panoramic views of the Santa Monica and<br />
Malibu coastlines. The initial schematic design was originally conceived<br />
with Frank Israel prior to his death, and the project has since been<br />
developed and executed by his former partners Barbara Callas and<br />
Steven Shortridge.<br />
This 3000 square foot home was designed for a couple whose children<br />
are grown and starting their own families. The project appears as a<br />
single story residence on the street side and drops to two stories on<br />
the downhill side toward the ocean. Due in part to strict height requirements<br />
and the prominent horizon line, the roofline is a continuous<br />
horizontal parapet shared by exterior walls leaning outwards from the<br />
core of the house, appeasing setback requirements while increasing<br />
the interior sense of space. From the coastline below the outward tilting<br />
walls read as a two-story wedge embedded into the slope while thrusting<br />
out over the hillside.<br />
The entry is located within an indentation between two bisecting volumes<br />
on the front elevation of the house. This defines the three-zone<br />
strategy of the living zone, the private zone, and the semi-public study<br />
space. Upon entering, an orange plaster wall tilts and folds to define<br />
the latitudinal axis of the house. This wall divides upper public and<br />
lower private levels of the and descends to the master bedroom suite,<br />
lower deck, and outdoor garden.<br />

This book presents the latest developments in the field of architecture<br />
as it has been reshaped by the use of digital technologies. The last few<br />
years, technological developments in both hardware and software have<br />
enabled the realization of ideas that until now were only presented<br />
as theories, and have also opened new and unexpected areas of<br />
experimentation. The new digital technologies are influencing every<br />
stage of the creative process from the initial exploration of ideas to the<br />
construction of the final work and its interaction with the user. These<br />
developments are presented in four chapters, each one including<br />
detailed presentation of the most important relevant projects and<br />
general theoretical-technical information.<br />
