Art Nouveau Architecture - Anne Anderson - Bog - The Crowood Press Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Art Nouveau Architecture - Anne Anderson - Bog - The Crowood Press Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Distinguished by their lavish sculpture, metalwork or tile facades, Art Nouveau buildings certainly stand out. Art Nouveau buildings are unique, audacious and inspirational. Rejecting historic styles, considered inappropriate for an era driven by progress, architects and designers sought a new vocabulary of architectural forms. Their vision was shaped by modern materials and innovative technologies, including iron, glass and ceramics. A truly democratic style, Art Nouveau transformed life on the eve of the twentieth century and still captivates our imaginations today. Beautifully illustrated, this book explains how the new style came into being, its rationale and why it is known by so many different names: French Art Nouveau, German Jugendstil, Viennese Secession, Catalan Modernisme, Italian Liberty and Portuguese Arte Nova. It covers the key architects and designers associated with the style; Victor Horta in Brussels, Hector Guimard in Paris, Antoni Gaudi on Barcelona, Otto Wagner in Vienna, Odon Lechner in Budapest and Charles Rennie Mackintosh in Glasgow. There are detailed descriptions and stunning photographs of buildings to be found in Brussels, Paris, Nancy, Darmstadt, Vienna, Budapest, Barcelona, Milan, Turin and Aveiro. Finally, it covers the decorative arts, stained glass, tiles and metalwork that make Art Nouveau buildings so distinctive.

Roof Tiling and Slating - Kevin Taylor - Bog - The Crowood Press Ltd - Plusbog.dk

If you have never fixed a roof tile or slate before but have wondered how to go about repairing or replacing them, then this is the book for you. Many of the technical books about roof tiling and slating are rather vague and conveniently ignore some of the trickier problems and how they can be resolved. However, this practical volume, written by an expert with a vast experience of teaching roof tiling and slating to both apprentices and experienced roofers, rejects this cautious approach. Topics covered:Considers the various types of tiles, slates and roofing materials on the market and their uses, how to estimate the required quantities, and where to buy themDiscusses how to check and assess a roof and how to identify and rectify problemsDescribes how to efficiently ''set out'' roofs from small, simple jobs to larger and more complicated projects, thus making the work quicker, simpler and neaterExamines the correct and the incorrect ways of installing background materials such as underlay, battens and valley linersExplains how to install interlocking tiles, plain tiles, and artificial and natural slatesCovers both modern and traditional methods and skills, including cutting materials by hand without the assistance of power toolsProvides invaluable guidance on repairs and maintenance issues, and highlights common mistakes and how they can be avoided

Handmade Tiles is a complete guide to tiles and the techniques involved in making them. It explains the full process from first design ideas through to installation so that all makers, whether from a ceramics background or not, can benefit from the detailed instruction. Supported by over 600 images, it gives practical advice and tips so that makers can work with confidence, and includes an inspiring range of finished examples so they can develop their own unique style. For artists and makers, tiles are a form of artistic expression. For architects and designers, they add texture, colour and pattern to spaces. For those new to ceramics, they are an opportunity to explore the key skills of decoration, glazing and modelling. Catering for all these readers, Marion Brandis has written a detailed guide to how tiles can be made and used most effectively, and how their full potential can be realised. She first explains how to get started with a specific project in mind. She then looks at different ways of decorating and making tiles, particularly focusing on the exciting possibilities of surface decoration using glazes and slips. She goes on to explore how to make tiles with relief work and three-dimensional forms, using modelling and moulds. Further chapters on tiles and print, installation, freeform tiling, the tile in context and working to commission complete this impressive guide.
