Frank Lloyd Wright

Resumen del Ebook

Widely thought to be the greatest American architect, Frank Lloyd Wright (1867-1959) was a true pioneer, both artistically and technically. At a time when reinforced concrete and steel were considered industrial building materials, Wright boldly made use of them to build private homes. His prairie house concept - that of a low, sprawling home based upon a simple L or T figure - was the driving force behind some of his most famous houses and became a model for rural architecture across America. Wright’s designs for office and public buildings were equally groundbreaking and unique. From Fallingwater to New York’s Guggenheim Museum, his works are among the most famous in the history of architecture.

Miradas intensivas

Desde hace años se asiste al retorno de los modos de la arquitectura moderna, tras cuarenta años de ajetreo doctrinal. Durante este tiempo, con el pretexto de corregir las desviaciones de una modernidad mítica y, a menudo, mal entendida, se consiguió confundir su auténtico sentido y acabar con un modo de concebir intenso y relativamente generalizado. Las posiciones de enmienda se fundamentaban, por lo común, en argumentaciones morales, cuando no meramente costumbristas: en ningún caso fueron capaces de proponer un sistema visual alternativo al que fecundó la mejor arquitectura del...

Architettura del Novecento in Argentina

Le relazioni culturali fra Italia e Argentina si manifestano con evidenza anche nei rapporti fra le architetture dei due paesi. Il patrimonio architettonico argentino, particolarmente quello della prima metà del Novecento, è stato in larga parte progettato e realizzato da tecnici e maestranze italiane, che emigrando hanno portato con sé il proprio bagaglio di conoscenze e di saperi costruttivi, innestandolo in una nuova realtà, che ne reca fortemente impressa la traccia. Quel patrimonio costruito è divenuto recentemente oggetto di riscoperta e di attenzione, per l’esigenza di...
