Materials for Architectural...
Dostępność: na zamówienie In architectural education the study of materials and the study of design are often treated as separate areas of discourse, when in reality the two are utterly intertwined. The choice of construction materials affects the look and feel of built form, while inspired design sense injects life into a building’s ingredients. This book is aimed at students of architecture and young practising architects.
Living and Working...
Dostępność: na zamówienie There's not a great deal of difference between living and working for those of us who one day decide to make a living by creating the world, for those of us who perceive architecture as something more than just work and the negative aspect associated with this word, but rather like a window through which to see the world. And a means of transforming this world.. And what's more this book is divided into two large, almost Heideggerian sections, “to build, to live, to think”, simply because this is one of the many ways of doing so (enough to recall the magnificent and diverse animal classification system by Borges and featured in some of his books).
Key Houses of the Twentieth...
Dostępność: na zamówienie Featuring over 100 of the most significant and influential houses of the twentieth century, this book includes classic works by such seminal architects as Le Corbusier, Frank Lloyd Wright, Mies van der Rohe and Alvar Aalto, as well as those by more recent masters, such as Tadao Ando, Rem Koolhaas and Glen Murcutt. For each of the houses included there are numerous, accurate scale plans showing each floor, together with elevations, sections and site plans where appropriate. All of these have been specially drawn for this book and are based on the most upto-date information and sources.
