Synopsis
- Documents the complete work to date of Swiss firm Ruch & Partner Architects
- Features all of their buildings and projects, including the famous interventions in historic houses in the Engadine
- Lavishly illustrated with colour photographs throughout and with selected plans
- Beautiful present for architecture lovers and anyone with an interest in historic houses
In 2006, the book Historic Houses in the Engadin: Architectural Interventions by Hans-Jörg Ruch brought the name and work of this Swiss architect to international attention. His new book, with equally opulent design and again lavishly illustrated, now documents the entire range of his achievements over nearly twenty-five years. His oeuvre comprises private houses and multi-unit residential buildings, public buildings such as museums or libraries, as well as infrastructure designs. A focus of the firm's work is the rebuilding and restoration of existing and in particular of historic buildings.
Close-up - Ruch & Partner Architects 1994-2016 features all of the firm's realised buildings and projects to date, including the restored historic houses in the Engadine with the careful and sensitive contemporary interventions that made his name internationally known. Each is presented with atmospheric photographs and selected plans that demonstrate the firm's approach and concepts and with a concise text. A topical essay on Ruch's architecture in context with his biography and the surrounding Swiss mountain landscape.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Vor zehn Jahren hat der Schweizer Architekt Hans-Jörg Ruch mit seinem grossformatigen und opulent ausgestatteten Buch Historische Häuser im Engadin grossen internationalen Erfolg erzielt. Nun legt sein Büro in identischer Ausstattung einen Band mit einer repräsentativen Werkauswahl vor. 'Close-up - Ruch & Partner Architekten 1994-2018' dokumentiert minutiös und in Nahsicht zwischen 1994 und 2018 entstandene Neubauten, Umbauten und Sanierungen des Büros Ruch & Partner Architekten. Enthalten sind Wohn- und Privathäuser, Hotels, aber auch öffentliche Gebäude (u.a. Museen, Galerie, Bibliothek), Infrastrukturbauten und grössere Wohnsiedlungen. Auch die kunstvoll rückgebauten und renovierten Bauern- und Patrizierhäuser, die im ersten Buch porträtiert waren, wurden aufgenommen, ergänzt durch vier neue solcher Interventionen.Wie im erfolgreichen Vorläufer werden alle Bauten in stimmungsvollen Aufnahmen des italienischen Fotografen Filippo Simonetti präsentiert; umfassendes Planmaterial, das auch für Laien verständlich ist, erweckt die Gebäude zum Leben. Zu jedem Haus hat Hans-Jörg Ruch einen persönlichen Text geschrieben, und ein Essay des Künstlers und Autors Franz Wanner verortet das Schaffen von Ruch & Partner Architekten im Zusammenspiel mit der umgebenden Landschaft.
