Book Synopsis Image Building by : Therese Lichtenstein
Download or read book Image Building written by Therese Lichtenstein and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2018-03-16 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This generously illustrated examination of architectural photography from the 1930s to the present shows how the medium has helped shape familiar views of iconic buildings. Photography has both manipulated and bolstered our appreciation of modern architecture. With beautiful photographs of private and public buildings by Julius Shulman, Candida Höfer, Andreas Gursky, Thomas Struth, and others, this book examines the central and active role that photography plays in defining and perpetuating the iconic nature of buildings and places. This volume shows how different photographers represent the same building, offers commentaries on the "American dream," and explores changes in commercial architectural photography. Placing decades-old images alongside modern ones, Image Building depicts the idea of the comfortable middle-class home and the construction of suburbia as an ironic ideal. It presents the ways that public spaces such as libraries, museums, theaters, and office buildings are experienced differently as photographers highlight the social, cultural, psychological, and aesthetic conditions to reveal the layered meanings of place and identity. Looking at how photography shapes and frames our understanding of architecture, this volume offers thought-provoking points of view through an exploration of social and cultural issues.

Book Synopsis Image-building in Canadian Municipalities by : Jean Harvey
Download or read book Image-building in Canadian Municipalities written by Jean Harvey and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Municipal image-building now promotes cities globally, and also to their own citizens. Image-building in Canadian Municipalities explores the decision making processes that determine how cities and towns choose to represent themselves. It also assesses the effectiveness of those processes and of the images themselves. Documenting how image-building policies vary across municipalities and provinces, contributors focus on the interaction between various levels of government and on the involvement and influence of business organizations, heritage associations, environmental groups, and other social forces. Delving into largely unexplored areas of research, with a particular interest in smaller towns and cities, authors show how municipal image-making is often used to advance other policy objectives, and thereby intersects with areas such as culture, economic development, tourism, and immigration. Image-building in Canadian Municipalities shows how municipalities of all sizes are conscious of their images. Thought-provoking and instructive, it provides lessons to policy makers and social interest groups about creating better public policies. Contributors include Caroline Andrew (University of Ottawa), John C. Lehr (University of Winnipeg), Judy Lynn Richards (University of Prince Edward Island), Cristine de Clercy (University of Western Ontario), Peter Ferguson (University of Western Ontario), and Karla Zubrycki International Institute for Sustainability, Winnipeg).
Book Synopsis Image Building among Most Vulnerable Tribal Groups (MVTGs) of Madhya Pradesh by : Dr. Harendra Pratap Singh Chouhan
Download or read book Image Building among Most Vulnerable Tribal Groups (MVTGs) of Madhya Pradesh written by Dr. Harendra Pratap Singh Chouhan and published by Blue Rose Publishers. This book was released on 2022-10-06 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present book is an attempt to touch on one of the most neglected and talked aspects of a significant portion of the population (the most vulnerable tribals of MP) and also what can be done to build the image of these tribal groups. One of the authors has done significant research work in the field by visiting the actual places of residence of the tribal groups under study and has extensively interviewed them. As both the authors are from the management stream a new perspective is presented in the book. Till now this was the domain of the sociologists and the anthropologists, but the management perspective will help the readers to view things differently. The book is divided into six chapters. The first chapter titled “Image building and understanding the tribes is an introduction to both the tribes as well as what all comprises image building. This chapter is basically for those readers who are not acquainted with the tribal groups and what is meant by the terminology like most vulnerable groups. The chapter also introduces what image building means. Chapter two is more about the reports and the works done by the other scholars so that the readers know what other scholars view about the present topic and also the authors have developed their research and the findings based on the work of the scholars of the field. Chapters three and four comprise the crux of our work. These two chapters will help the readers to get an understanding of the culture, living styles, and every aspect of the life of these MVTGs. A comparative study will help the readers to know that though all the three groups are from MP still many differences are there among the three groups and the management of their everyday living and image building will be decided based on these differences. Forest, agriculture, migration, education, culture, dance, house structure, tattoo, worship, food, etc. are some of the aspects which are dealt with and all the three groups are compared on these features. Chapter five deals with the image-building aspects with the background of all the marketing concepts required to make the image of these tribes as required and what can be done to enhance the image. For the readers having no background in management, the chapter is such planned that they get an idea about the basic terminology of promotion and image building. Chapter six comprises what we feel as researchers and some of the suggestions from our side based on the four years of exhaustive work we have done. These suggestions can help the MVTGs to get what they want (not using the term “including in mainstream”). So, we conclude that this book can be an effort to start the debate from a very new perspective.
Book Synopsis Transforming Our Image, Building Our Brand by : Valerie J. Gross
Download or read book Transforming Our Image, Building Our Brand written by Valerie J. Gross and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2012-11-08 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes a groundbreaking concept that enables public libraries—and librarians—to become indispensable by following a "Three Pillars" educational approach, and by replacing traditional terms with powerful, intuitive, value-enhanced terminology that everyone understands. While there is no question that what librarians and library professionals do is critically important, the ways in which these roles and responsibilities are described can mean the difference between being valued as essential to the community or considered optional. Something as simple as a choice of words can determine what is valued—and consequently what gets funded, and what gets canceled. Transforming Our Image, Building Our Brand: The Education Advantage examines how the "Three Pillars" approach harnesses the power of language to enhance respect, generate increased perceived value, and garner funding. The power stems from positioning all that library professionals do under three, easy-to-remember "pillars," and replacing typical library terms and phrases with bold, value-enhanced terminology that commands value—language that people outside of the field can immediately understand. This book is essential reading for public library staff members at all levels of the organization, especially those in leadership roles; and its root concepts are applicable for all other library types as well.

Book Synopsis Main Street Revisited by : Richard V. Francaviglia
Download or read book Main Street Revisited written by Richard V. Francaviglia and published by University of Iowa Press. This book was released on 1996-06-01 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As an archetype for an entire class of places, Main Street has become one of America's most popular and idealized images. In Main Street Revisited, the first book to place the design of small downtowns in spatial and chronological context, Richard Francaviglia finds the sources of romanticized images of this archetype, including Walt Disney's Main Street USA, in towns as diverse as Marceline, Missouri, and Fort Collins, Colorado. Francaviglia interprets Main Street both as a real place and as an expression of collective assumptions, designs, and myths; his Main Streets are treasure troves of historic patterns. Using many historical and contemporary photographs and maps for his extensive fieldwork and research, he reveals a rich regional pattern of small-town development that serves as the basis for American community design. He underscores the significance of time in the development of Main Street's distinctive personality, focuses on the importance of space in the creation of place, and concentrates on popular images that have enshrined Main Street in the collective American consciousness.

Book Synopsis Building Character by : Charles L. Davis
Download or read book Building Character written by Charles L. Davis and published by University of Pittsburgh Press. This book was released on 2019-12-17 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner, 2021 CAAA Charles Rufus Morey Book Award Winner, 2021 On the Brinck Book Award Shortlist, 2020 MSA First Book Prize In the nineteenth-century paradigm of architectural organicism, the notion that buildings possessed character provided architects with a lens for relating the buildings they designed to the populations they served. Advances in scientific race theory enabled designers to think of “race” and “style” as manifestations of natural law: just as biological processes seemed to inherently regulate the racial characters that made humans a perfect fit for their geographical contexts, architectural characters became a rational product of design. Parallels between racial and architectural characters provided a rationalist model of design that fashioned some of the most influential national building styles of the past, from the pioneering concepts of French structural rationalism and German tectonic theory to the nationalist associations of the Chicago Style, the Prairie Style, and the International Style. In Building Character, Charles Davis traces the racial charge of the architectural writings of five modern theorists—Eugene Emmanuel Viollet-le-Duc, Gottfried Semper, Louis Sullivan, Frank Lloyd Wright, and William Lescaze—to highlight the social, political, and historical significance of the spatial, structural, and ornamental elements of modern architectural styles.

Book Synopsis Building Corporate Identity, Image and Reputation in the Digital Era by : T C Melewar
Download or read book Building Corporate Identity, Image and Reputation in the Digital Era written by T C Melewar and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2021-07-29 with total page 573 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brands – corporate, products, service – today are collectively defined by their customers, deriving from personal experiences and word of mouth. This book acts as a forum for examining current and future trends in corporate branding, identity, image and reputation. Recognising the complexity and plurality at the heart of the corporate branding discipline, this book fills a gap in the literature by posing a number of original research questions on the intrinsic nature of corporate branding ideas from corporate (external) and organisation (internal) identity perspectives as they relate to brand management, corporate reputation, marketing communications, social media, smart technology, experiential and sensory marketing. It incorporates current thinking and developments by both multidisciplinary academics and practitioners, combining a comprehensive theoretical foundation with practical insights. The text will serve as an important resource for the marketing, identity and brand practitioners requiring more than anecdotal evidence on the structure and operation of stakeholders communication in different geographical areas. It determines current practices and researches in diverse areas, regions and commercial and non-commercial sectors across the world. The book provides scholars, researchers and postgraduate students in business and marketing with a comprehensive treatment of the nature of relationships between companies, brands and stakeholders in different areas and regions of the world.
