91°: More than Architecture, Vol. 3 (English and German Edition) by Eternit Werke Ludwig Hatschek AG (Editor), Cembrit Holding A/S (Editor), Wojciech Czaja (Editor) - 2008-12-05

Basel: Birkhäuser, 2009. This third issue of 91 Degrees is devoted to the subject of "speed." it's hard to resist the temptation to accelerate, especially when a fast-paced life is regarded as a virtue. Even architecture can no longer avoid the pursuit of speed. In an essay, David Staretz faces off with the phenomenon of time pressure. Also, 91 Degrees rides through Bregenzerwald on an RC8 Superbike with Carlo Baumschlager, and readers learn the meaning of the word "speed." Laurids Ortner opens the door to his Vienna loft and reveals a timeless dwelling. The story "Elsewhere" focuses on Sicily and the issue of new architecture on this Mediterranean island rich in tradition. The pace is less hectic in Oslo: the Norwegians Jensen & Skodvin teach all admirers of spectacular form that what ultimately counts is not time but the construction site. New, in Publisher's shrinkwrap. [698]. First Edition. Magazine. New. 310mm. x 240mm.. Magazine/Periodical.
