Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. This compilation of texts written since 1986 reveals a parallel activity to Alejandro Zaera-Polo's professional life. The book is like a sniper's log, a register of events for the purpose of accumulating experience for future missions, be it academic or professional, trying to identify tendencies and to assess performances, rather than to establish truth. Written for different media and formats (professional magazines, speaking engagements, and academic presentations), the texts are thread together as part of a biographical experience that reveals that theory is here primarily instrumental and seeks efficiency rather than truth. We do not theorise because we want to understand the deep truths of the world, but because we need to organise the realm where we operate, understand how reality works and find an effective way to perform within it. A compilation of texts written since 1986. It reveals a parallel activity to Alejandro Zaera-Polo's professional life.

Trade Paperback. Condición: Used - Very Good. The Yokohama Project: An interesting building usually has an equally interesting tale to tell, an epic embedded in the organization of the massive, complex amount of matter used to create the structure. This book recounts the story of the Yokokama Project, an inventive, undulating, grass-covered ferry terminal that was never meant to be built. Asked to produce some material for an architectural journal, London-based architects Farshid Moussavi and Alejandro Zaera-Polo of FOA (Foreign Office Architects) set themselves a program of entering three competitions, through which to explore design ideas they had become interested in. When they actually won the second competition, for the Yokohama International Port Terminal, in Yokohama, Japan, their plans suddenly changed. The Yokohama Project presents a textual and visual replica of the way their winning building was developed, over eight years, by FOA and a huge team of engineers and researchers in Tokyo and Yokohama. Unlike the typical architectural book, this one offers no critical texts and no theoretical analyses of the structure; instead, it aims to rediscover the linearity of the building's creation. The reader is thus moved linearly through the following chapters: Design Evolution, Building Permits, Structure, Services, Finishes, Circulation, and Final Documents. Peppered throughout with detailed plans, elevations, diagrams, and sketches, as well as candid snapshots of the design team at work (sometimes asleep at and under their desks!), The Yokohama Project is not only an homage to a building but to the many people who worked on making it real. Foreign Office Architects is a pioneering architectural practice founded in London in1992. It has since expanded to include an office in Japan. The principal partners are Farshid Moussavi and Alejandro Zaera Polo, both of whom are graduates of Harvard University's Masters in Architecture program and former employees of Rem Koolhaus's OMA (Office for Metropolitan Architecture). Current projects include a publishing headquarters in Paju City, Korea, and a park and open-air auditorium in Barcelona, Spain. Completed projects include New Belgo restaurant and Bermondsey Antiques Market in London. This past year, FOA were among the short-listed winners for the competition to design Porto Antico in Genova, Italy. Edited by Tomoko Sakamoto, Albert Ferre, Michael Kubo. Contributions by Alejandro Zaera-Polo. Previous owner stamped his name on text edge. Very nice clean, tight copy free of any marks.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. In light of the increasing disengagement between urban and rural areas, this book address the interdependency of cities with ecological and technological processes outside the purview of traditional urban planning. It compiles a huge amount of essays in regards to the most important topics that cities must address today, such as their connection with global data networks, ecological cycles of resources which supersede the traditional boundaries of urbanism. For this reason, it frames investigation of contemporary urbanism on nine imminent commons grouping the urban commons into resources and technologies lead us to the arcane classification of natural resources: air, water, fire, and earth, the four elements of ancient cosmologies; and five basic technological commons based on expanded human capacities: sensing, communicating, moving, making, and recycling. As the second book of the Seoul Biennale of Architecture and Urbanism 2017, it presents contemporary urbanism thoughts on nine imminent commons, which engage collective ecological and technological resources relevant to all cities and even extra-urban territories.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. The cities of the world stand at a crossroads. Amidst radical social, economic, and technological transformations, will the city become a driving force of creativity, diversity, and sustainability, or will it be a mechanism of inequality, despair, and environmental decay? At this critical moment, where do the stakes lie and what are the agents of change? From the time of its birth, the city has been held together by the commons.The book includes essays by Alejandro Zaera, Hyungmin Pai, Maider Llaguno, Nerea Calvillo, Hyewon Lee, Lindsay Bremner, Alex Ivancic, Iaki Abalos, Charles Waldheim, David Gissen, Carlo Ratti, Daniele Belleri, Antoine Pico, Saskia Saseen, Adam Greenfield, Jesse LeCavalier, Philip Rode, Duncan McLaren, Julian Agyeman, Gunter Pauli, Gramazio and Kohler, Mario Carpo, Dirk E. Hebel, Marta H. Wisniewska, Felix Heisel, Mitchell Joachim, and Christian Hubert.The first publication of the Seoul Biennale of Architecture and Urbanism 2017, proposes a framework that sets basic commons ? an evolving network of agencies, resources and technologies ? as the critical issue in the move towards a sustainable and just urbanism. It shows an exploration not of distant utopias, but of the very near future, because the emerging commons is changing the way we connect, make, move, recycle, sense, and share, and the way we manage air, water, energy and the earth. Whether met with fear or hope, they will very soon change the way we live in the city. The first publication of the Seoul Biennale of Architecture and Urbanism 2017, proposes a framework where set basic commons - an evolving network of agencies, resources and technologies - as the critical issue in the move towards a sustainable and just urbanism.

Condición: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Alejandro Zaera-Polo, uno de los arquitectos con más renombre del mundo, fue decano de la Facultad de Arquitectura de Princeton, hasta que iniciaron un proceso contra él por un supuesto plagio. Entonces, Zaera-Polo demandó a la universidad por difamación. La vigilancia y el control ideológicos de los alumnos terminaron de colmar el vaso. Y el arquitecto le declaró la guerra a Princeton: hizo escalar su reclamación sobre la libertad académica hasta la cima de la jerarquía y recogió durante su periplo todas las pruebas del caso. Más de 800 páginas de documentos en las que se ve, correo a correo, cómo las políticas de la identidad, el pensamiento de grupo y la presión están siendo aprovechados por algunas personas para impedir la libertad académica y acaparar poder. Fruto de esta experiencia de cancelación y del material probatorio recogido es este libro, en el que el propio Zaera-Polo relata en primera persona su «venganza» contra la Universidad de la que fuera profesor y su rechazo a la cultura de las «verdades alternativas» que se ha instalado en las universidades americanas. A lo largo de sus páginas, el arquitecto español muestra cómo la autoridad académica contemporánea utiliza todo un arsenal de mecanismos de control, como la unanimidad y el pensamiento de grupo, para convertir la mentira en verdad. La Universidad de la Posverdad cuenta una historia de vulneración de la libertad de cátedra por motivos ideológicos de la que haríamos bien en tomar nota. Sólo así podremos evitar que la cancelación y la persecución identitaria se instalen también en nuestros campus. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
