Download or read book B720MN19 written by b720 Arquitectos and published by Lumaca Kess S.L.. This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: b720MN19 is an exercise between record, meaning, and the use of colour, particularly the association between glass and colour. This book is the materialisation in paper of a b720's studio project: the transformation of an anonymous building into a living project as it changes with the passing hours through the colours of the glass slats that transform the interior and exterior in intense dialogue with eachother. The project also symbolises the justification of an aesthetical solution to the need for protection from the sun. The work arouses, through the pictures by Rafael Vargas, reflections on project and colour in ... the architectural and artistic world.] Dominique Boudet, French journalist and critic.

Book Synopsis Sacred Buildings by : Rudolf Stegers
Download or read book Sacred Buildings written by Rudolf Stegers and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2008-05-16 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The building of religious structures represents a rare opportunity for the architect to concentrate on the creation of volume, space, and form. Sacred architecture is far less determined than other building tasks by functional requirements, norms, and standards. As a rule, it is free to unfold as pure architecture. Thus in design terms this building task offers enormous freedoms to the architect. At the same time, however, the special atmospherics of sacred spaces call, on the part of the architect, for a highly sensitive treatment of religion and the relevant cultural and architectural traditions. In a systematic section, this volume introduces the design, technical, and planning fundamentals of building churches, synagogues, and mosques. In its project section, it also presents about seventy realized structures from the last three decades. Drawing upon his in-depth knowledge of the subject and his many years of publishing experience, the author offers a valuable analysis of the conceptual and formal aspects that combine to create the religious impact of spaces (e.g., the ground plan, the shapes of the spaces, the incidence of light, and materiality).
Book Synopsis Freestanding Houses by : Günter Pfeifer
Download or read book Freestanding Houses written by Günter Pfeifer and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2009-10-16 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To continue developing existing building types in an intelligent way is a crucial task in the field of residential building. For the success of the individual design, as well as for ensuring that tried and tested structures can be utilized, repeated, and varied, a deeper grasp of the underlying types is indispensable. For this typology of residential buildings, the authors have developed systematic new presentations of the most innovative types. Each individual volume lays out the possibilities for using and transforming a particular form of residential structure. The fourth volume deals with the types of freestanding houses, whose all-around orientation allows for the optimal arrangement of all dwellings. A presentation of the freestanding house as an isolated element and as a building block for larger structures is followed by discussions of topics such as self-sufficiency versus neighborhoods, "Raumplan" versus "plan libre," and individuality versus density. Within each type, variants are distinguished according to type of access, number of floors, etc. The range of possible solutions is presented in uniform ground plans and sections newly drawn to scale.

Book Synopsis Lawson-Westen House by : James Steele
Download or read book Lawson-Westen House written by James Steele and published by Phaidon Press. This book was released on 1995-08-24 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lawson-Westen House was designed for a couple who cook together and entertain frequently. The vertical funnel of space above the food preparation area that results, is a dominant form in the building's composition and one of the major ordering devices in the building's circulation system. It is also an extraordinarily complex geometric feat, relying on shifting grids and subtle subdivisions, revealing a geometrically-based order of Moss' own devising. Incomprehensible at a simple glance, the interior of the Lawson-Western House is exhilarating and mentally exhausting at the same time.

Looking at the tension, evident throughout the century, between 'traditional' and 'new' looks, the book also examines the importance of image to 20th-century consumers of designed products."

Book Synopsis World of Art Series American Architecture 2e by : David Handlin
Download or read book World of Art Series American Architecture 2e written by David Handlin and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2004-01-27 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: America has always presented a unique challenge to architects: should they emulate the Old World or respond to the demands of the New? David Handlin tells the complex story with lucidity and insight. Almost from its seventeenth-century beginnings, American architecture was subject to two apparently contradictory processesthe practical and the grandiose. The first comes through in the vernacular buildings of rural America, the innovations of Jefferson, Bulfinch's fine civic buildings, the offices and factories of the Industrial Age, and the comfortable domestic tradition that lies behind the houses of the Greene Brothers and Frank Lloyd Wright. The second is seen in the unprecedented daring of the Chicago Schoolgreat engineers like Adler united with great designers like Sullivan; in the majestic state capitols, exhibition halls, and public buildings by firms such as McKim, Mead & White; in the luxury of Fifth Avenue mansions; and in the exuberance of commercial Manhattan.The revised edition ends with a lively account of recent developmentsvirtual architecture, the revival of historical styles (including modernism), the thirst for striking originality, and a new interest in the local, with figures including Stern, Meier, Gehry, and Mockbee. 264 illustrations.
