FORANDRING OG KONTINUITET

Vi begynder denne udgave med at sige farvel til Lennart Engström, som trækker sig tilbage fra redaktionsteamet. Han startede vores magasin, Copper Forum, op for 18 år siden og har spillet en afgørende rolle i udviklingen af magasinet fra den første udgave på fire sider, som rettede sig mod skandinaviske arkitekter til det 40 siders magasin, der i dag udgives i hele Europa på 13 forskellige sprog og med et oplag på 25.000 stk.

Copper based products improve the economic and environmental performance of multiple applications in energy, transportation and buildings.

First prize in the international Copper and the Home 2012 design competition has been awarded to Francesco Morackini of France for his project: Prohibition Kit.  The jury’s unanimous decision was based on the graphical care of Francesco’s design for an alcohol distillery disguised as a collection of everyday objects – a playful reference to the Prohibition Era, when alcohol was banned.  The presentation of prizes was made at a ceremony at the Triennale Design Museum in Milan.

Kobberdifferentiering

Denne udgave samler en eklektisk blanding af nye bygninger, hvor kobber og kobberlegering spiller en central rolle i det arkitektoniske udtryk. Den kan betragtes som en typologisk rundvisning, der afdækker en stigende differentiering i brugen af materialet blandt designere af alle bygningstyper – og nye teknikker. 

The "CopperConcept in Europe" Google Earth tour highlights some of Europe's most remarkable and interesting contemporary architectural designs that feature copper or copper alloy roofing, cladding and other architectural elements. See the list of fantastic 'copper' buildings below. Each of the buildings featured in the tour also appears in more detail in the References section of our website.

Genopbygningsnummer

Hele dette nummer er helliget arkitekternes opfindsomhed, når det gælder opfindsomhed, når det gælder restaurering af det miljø, som vi bor og arbejder i.

I samarbejde med kobberleverandøren blev der udviklet en unik teknik for at skabe de seks hundrede individuelle perforerede kobberpaneler, der udgør facaden.

Kobber-kronosfære

Der er ingen undskyldning for at komme for sent i Grumello del Monte, nær Bergamo i Italien, med dette gigantiske ur, der er defineret af en gylden kobberlegeringscylinder.

Da Marie Louise Kold blev fascineret af kobberets særlige egenskaber i 1997, gik det hurtigt op for hende, at dette ville blive hendes materiale i kunstarbejdet.

Kobberkunst – perspektiver fra Spanien

Korrosion på metalliske facadematerialer kan forekomme af to årsager. Den første er af den rene, galvaniske type, det vil sige, at to forskellige metaller er i direkte kontakt med hinanden. Den anden skyldes afvanding fra én metaloverflade over på en anden type metal.
