<p>Rene Braem was long considered the most important representative of modern architecture in Belgium, both for his often imposing achievements and because of his theory and his ideological stands. He attempted to adapt the concept of the Radiant City to Flemish soil and his own concepts of society, as a member of the CIAM and an admirer of Le Corbusier, who he trained under between 1936-37.</p>

In the 1920s no one could have foreseen that Raoul Hausemann, a founder of the Berlin Dada movement, would one day become interested in the traditional habitat of Ibiza, in architecture, ethnography and documentary photography. This book traces the remarkable transition of an artist who retreated from the avante-garde paths he had marked out in order to look at man and his primordial activities: song, poetry and the construction of his house. It describes the exacting research work that the Dadaist-artist pursued on the island.

The appeal of a public square is well known and documented. So why is it rare to come across one from modern times that sits well in its environment, is well paved and furnished, has harmonious roof lines and is sheltered from the worst weather? Most European towns and cities have many historic squares that are treasured by the community, but few in modern times seem able to produce the same sense of pleasure and well-being. This title addresses the problem and considers the refreshingly elegant designs for open public spaces by Pier Carlo Bontempi.
