Elements of Architecture focuses on the fragments of the rich and complex architectural collage. Window, facade, balcony, corridor, fireplace, stair, escalator, elevator: the book seeks to excavate the micro-narratives of building detail. The result is no single history, but rather the web of origins, contaminations, similarities, and differences in architectural evolution, including the influence of technological advances, climatic adaptation, political calculation, economic contexts, regulatory requirements, and new digital opportunities. It's a guide that is long overdue-in Koolhaas's own words, "Never was a book more relevant-at a moment where architecture as we know it is changing beyond recognition." Derived, updated, and expanded from Koolhaas's exhaustive and much-lauded exhibition at the 2014 Venice Architecture Biennale, this is an essential toolkit to understanding the fundamentals that comprise structure around the globe. Designed by Irma Boom and based on research from the Harvard Graduate School of Design, the 2,600-page monograph contains essays from Rem Koolhaas, Stephan Trueby, Manfredo di Robilant, and Jeffrey Inaba; interviews with Werner Sobek and Tony Fadell (of Nest); and an exclusive photo essay by Wolfgang Tillmans. In addition to comprehensively updated texts and new images, this edition is designed and produced to visually (and physically) embody the immense scope of its subject matter: Custom split-spine binding: our printer modified their industrial binding machine to allow for the flexible, eight-centimeter thick spine Contains a new introductory chapter with forewords, table of contents, and an index, located in the middle of the book (where it naturally opens due to its unique spine) Printed on 50g Opakal paper, allowing for the ideal level of opacity needed to realize Boom's palimpsest-like design Translucent overlays and personal annotations by Koolhaas and Boom are woven in each chapter to create an alternative, faster route through the book Printed at the originally intended 100% size for full readabilitymehr

Autor

Rem Koolhaas ist Mitbegründer des Office for Metropolitan Architecture. Vor dem Architekturstudium arbeitete er als Journalist und Drehbuchautor. Im Jahr 1978 veröffentlichte er Delirious New York, a retroactive Manifesto for Manhattan. Sein Buch S,M,L,XL aus dem Jahr 1995 fasst die Arbeit von OMA zusammen und stellt Verbindungen zwischen der zeitgenössischen Gesellschaft und Architektur her. Neben vielen anderen internationalen Auszeichnungen und Ausstellungen erhielt er den Pritzker Prize (2000) und den Praemium Imperiale (2003). Im Jahr 2014 kuratierte er die ArchitekturBiennale in Venedig und veröffentlichte sein Buch Elements of Architecture, das aus seiner viel gelobten Ausstellung auf der Biennale hervorging.
