Pamphlet Architecture 11: Hybrid Buildings1 review
Joseph Fenton

Princeton Architectural Press, 1985

no buy
the book is not at all thorough, but is thumb nails of so called hybrid buildings. There is no distinction between mixed use projects and hybrid buildings. hybrid buildings is relatively a new concept but buildings from the sixties are cited as examples. A no no buy.
  
  











  



  
Pamphlet Architecture 23 - Move: Sites of Trauma
Johanna Saleh Dickson

Founded in 1978 by architect Steven Holl and bookseller William Stout in an attempt to skirt the editorial control of the reigning architectural magazine culture, Pamphlet Architecture has been disrupting the status-quo ever since. This series of small experimental volumes has introduced important ideas and spurred much-needed debate among students and practitioners alike. Pamphlet Architecture 23 carries on this tradition with a book ...

Pamphlet Architecture 15: War and Architecture3 reviews
Lebbeus Woods

Princeton Architectural Press, 1996

Truly remarkable little book.
In this work I have seen the necessity for Woods' architecture to exist; where before I had only seen compelling drawings. Lebbeus Woods has dedicated this manifesto to the city of Sarajevo, and to all cities which bear the signs of armed conflict on their walls. He states that the emergence of a new architecture is especially crucial in Sarajevo where the architecture was the target of the ...
  
  











  



  
Pamphlet Architecture 28: Augmented Landscapes1 review
Smout Allen

Princeton Architectural Press, 2007

The Immacuate Line
I am pleased I added this title to my growing Pamphlet Architecture collection. In the best of meanings - this book is one that must be read from cover to cover to gain a very precious in-sight to the work of Laura Allen and Mark Smout. Immaculate drawings with detailed modelling combine with clear informative text that describes propositions that are at once both architectonic in mechanised ...
  
  











  



  
What Christianity Has Done for the World
Rose Publishing

Rose Publishing, Inc., 2006

A recent study concluded that Christianity's image is the United States is declining, especially among young people. Only 16% of non-Christians between the ages of 16 and 29 have a "good impression" of Christianity according to Barna Research. Evangelicals come under the severest criticism, with only 3% of 16-29 year olds having a favorable view of this group of Christians. This pamphlet was written to show this generation some of the "good ...
  
  











  



  
Pamphlet Architecture 1-102 reviews
Steven Holl

Princeton Architectural Press, 1998

The freedom of Architecture!
A book where architecure doesn't follow a school of thought. Rather the liberty of artistic expression. The kind of work that must be seen before starting an architectural magazine.
  
  











  



  
Pamphlet Architecture 27: Tooling6 reviews
Benjamin Aranda, Chris Lasch

Princeton Architectural Press, 2005

suggested for digital designers
as an architect, i find this book fascinating. but it is not in any way limited to the practice of architecture. its relevance extends to all fields of design, and probably into fields of which i am not familiar. its a 'must have' in my opinion.

Shaping Things (Mediaworks Pamphlets)13 reviews
Bruce Sterling

The MIT Press, 2005

Setting the agenda..
If you're looking for a book on sustainable design, the intertwining of the informational and the material, and RFID, look no further. Sterling's account is more than a book for designers. Though some angles tend to originate from design-related topics, the implications and responsibilities pertaining to design cannot belong to a community of designers per se. That's a pretty self-evident ...
  
  











  



  
Urban Computing and Its Discontents (Situated Technologies Pamphlets, 1)

In December 2007 the League launched a nine-part publication series to be published over three years, exploring the implications of ubiquitous computing for architecture. Born out of the three-day symposium "Architecture and Situated Technologies," presented by the League, the Center for Virtual Architecture, and the Institute for Distributed Creativity in October 2006, the series will consider how our experience of the city and the choices we ...

Esther
Rose Publishing

The story of Queen Esther helps us answer the question: Where is God when things go wrong? God's apparent absence and his miraculous deliverance are key elements. Besides exploring the life of Esther, we'll explore the importance of the Temple, the Exile, Babylon and Persia, and God's presence even when he seems to be away. Esther's story gives hope for today's believers who also struggle with the question, "Where is God when I need him?" 14 ...
  
  











  



  
Architecture as a Translation of Music: (Pamphlet Architecture 16)8 reviews

Princeton Architectural Press, 1994

Maybe you are missing something?
For me, this is a thoughtful 80-page booklet touching, with a big broad-brush stroke, on some very intuative and evocative ideas on interdisciplinary work framed around ideas of time and space. To expect a book in the successful Pamphlet Architecture series to be an end all exhaustive study of any given subject is like looking at Time or Granta magazines renowned fiction writings and comparing ...
  
  











  



  
Virginia Trees & Wildflowers: An Introduction to Familiar Species (State Nature Guides)2 reviews
James Kavanagh, Raymond Leung

Waterford Press, 2005

Compact and informative
While this guide isn't bursting with information about each plant, it offers a quick guide to many of the trees and wildflowers that one is likely to find in Virginia. The guide is long and thin shaped with only a few pages. It's made of coated thick paper (or if you prefer, thin cardboard).

Pamphlet Architecture 14: Mosquitoes1 review
T. Krueger, K. Kaplan

Princeton Architectural Press, 1996

well worth reading!
This little book is exactly why I keep buying the Pamphlet Architecture series. In manifesto-like directness, K/K R&D stab at the heart of politics, culture and the traditional establishment of Architecture. The work presented is not peripheral; it is clearly at the center of where the understanding of Architecture should be at this stage of societal development. But, unlike the canonical ...
