Latin American cities have always been characterized by a strong tension between what is vaguely described as their formal and informal dimensions. However, the terms formal and informal refer not only to the physical aspect of cities but also to their entire socio-political fabric. Informal cities and settlements exceed the structures of order, control and homogeneity that one expects to find in a formal city; therefore the contributors to this volume – from such disciplines as architecture,...

When the authors, a pair of respected architects, first published this beautiful book in the late Victorian era, they meant it as a wakeup call to the forward-looking homeowners of the time — inviting them to eschew «the old puritanical hatred of color, which found its natural outcome in white houses with green blinds» and join in the revolutionary trend toward «advanced notions, in which the more positive colors find a chance of expression.» The book helped homeowners to attain this...

История Эльзаса, края небольшого по территории и не слишком важного в стратегическом плане, представляет собой череду захватов и освобождений. В течение веков он был яблоком раздора между Германией и Францией. Последние 60 лет этот район принадлежит французам, но местные жители называют себя эльзасцами. Благодаря смешению культур Эльзас обрел ярко выраженную индивидуальность, что сказалось и на его столице – Страсбурге, городе, где рядом с романским собором находятся такие структуры, как...

Перед автором этой книги стояла трудная задача – вкратце познакомить читателя с городами, которые известны каждому и все же до конца не поняты никем, даже теми, кто в них живет. Оба города, кстати, совсем не похожие друг на друга ни внешне, ни по сути, слишком часто представлялись в литературе, поэтому найти что-то новое в их истории и культуре оказалось практически невозможным. Впрочем, выход нашелся: форма описания была заимствована у историков Ренессанса, то есть тех, кто рассказывал о...

Оценки лужковской архитектуры единодушны – здания такого безобразного эстетического и технического качества должны как можно скорее исчезнуть из московской застройки. Однако возможна и другая оптика. Книга выпускницы и преподавателя Института медиа, архитектуры и дизайна «Стрелка» архитектора Даши Парамоновой – остроумная попытка рассмотреть архитектурное наследие лужковской Москвы как бесценное свидетельство тех перемен, которые претерпело российское общество в постсоветскую эпоху.
