[Winner of the 2016 Bronze medal in Architecture, Independent Publisher Book Awards] This book comprises a series of 22 case studies by renowned experts and new scholars in the field of architecture competition research. In 2015, it constitutes the most comprehensive survey of the dynamics behind the definition, organization, judging, archiving and publishing of architectural, landscape and urban design competitions in the world. These richly documented contributions revolve around a few questions that can be summarized in a two-fold critical interrogation: How can design competitions - these historical democratic devices, both praised and dreaded by designers - be considered laboratories for the production of environmental design quality, and, ultimately, for the renewing of culture and knowledge? Includes 340 illustrations, bibliographical references and index of over 200 cited competitions. Keywords: Architecture / International competitions / Architectural judgment / Design thinking / Digital archiving (databases) / Architectural publications / Architectural experimentation / Landscape architecture / Urban studies

"Jean-Paul Viguier was born in Azas, France in 1946. For over twenty years now he has been one of the few French architects to have succeeded in bridging the gap between large-scale public and private projects. As well as numerous buildings in France, he has also realized projects in Asia and in the United States. Viguier was influenced by Mies van der Rohe, and he seeks actively to walk the fine line that separates responsibility and creativity. This publication presents sixteen selected projects by Jean-Paul Viguier dating from the last ten years; they include the Andre Citroen Park, Paris, the French Pavilion at Expo 92 in Seville, the Franco-Chinese Center at Tong Ji University, Shanghai and the Sofitel Hotel, Chicago."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
