Global Danish Architecture...
Dostępność: na zamówienie In many books there is the issue of saturation-by-computer-rendering, a phenomenon whereby all buildings take on a similar appearance by virtue of using the same digital zeros and ones to create their character. But in the Danish compilations 2 and 3, thereis a greater effort by many of the firms to use advanced rendering technologies to focus on people and their relationships to buildings, rather than on the buildings as art objects in space. The result is to render a fuller Scandinavian regional identity to the work.

Patterns in Design examines this new trend, illustrating it with work by design luminaries like Hella Jongerius, Tord Moontje, Michael Lin, Olaf Nicolai, and Sauebruch and Hutton.

From Control to Design:...
Parametric and algorithmic design are two of the fastest emerging, most radical technologies reshaping architecture today. This book presents six independent practices that explore current applications of parametric and algorithmic design techniques in architectural production. If the first generation of digital modeling programs allowed designers to conceive new forms and processes, a new breed of digital techniques is being discussed to control and realize these forms. How are these techniques affecting architectural practice and what potentials do they offer ? This is a compilation of projects from leading practitioners across the fields of parametric and algorithmic design. A compelling, multi-perspective debate on the future of design.

Sustainability in Interior...
The environmental impact of interior architecture and design practice is immense. This book highlights the need for designers to adapt the way they work and relearn lessons that have been lost. Contrary to many preconceptions, sustainable design can be sophisticated and stylish. And by its nature, a sustainable approach means considering the whole life cycle of a project and therefore improving the functionality, quality, human enjoyment and, in the long term, bringing real social and economic benefits.
