Book Synopsis Forms of Practice by : Irina Davidovici
Download or read book Forms of Practice written by Irina Davidovici and published by GTA Verlag. This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the 1980s and 1990s, German-Swiss architecture achieved worldwide recognition on account of its constructional and aesthetic coherence. Buildings produced by German-Swiss architects appeared to have ethical implications and convey a search for a sence of stability in response to the relativism of postmodernist thinking. Irina Davidovici discusses the cultural and theoretical conditions that gave rise to this architectural style as representing different facets of a single artistic and cultural phenomenon. She brings to light the conflicts implicit between shared, collective values and individual's need for self-expression, between the integrity of the artist and the interests of commercial forces (éditeur).
Book Synopsis What an Architecture Student Should Know by : Jadwiga Krupinska
Download or read book What an Architecture Student Should Know written by Jadwiga Krupinska and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-06-05 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's not just you. Every architecture student is initially confused by architecture school - an education so different that it doesn't compare to anything else. A student’s joy at being chosen in stiff competition with many other applicants can turn to doubt when he or she struggles to understand the logic of the specific teaching method. Testimony from several schools of design and architecture in different countries indicates that many students feel disoriented and uncertain. This book will help you understand and be aware of: Specific working methods at architecture schools and in the critique process, so you'll feel oriented and confident. How to cope with uncertainty in the design process. How to develop the ability to synthesize the complexity of architecture in terms of function, durability, and beauty. This book is about how architects learn to cope with uncertainty and strive to master complexity. Special attention is given to criticism, which is an essential part of the design process. The author, a recipient of several educational awards, has written this book for architecture students and teachers, to describe how each student can adopt the architect's working method. Key concepts are defined throughout and references at the end of each chapter will point you to further reading so you can delve into topics you find particularly interesting. Jadwiga Krupinska is professor emerita at the School of Architecture of the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) in Stockholm, Sweden.

Book Synopsis Paul Klee, His Life and Work by : Paul Klee
Download or read book Paul Klee, His Life and Work written by Paul Klee and published by Hatje Cantz. This book was released on 2001 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In the course of his creativity, Klee developed his artistic will slowly, almost hesitantly. His work formed organically. Undogmatic and open to all graphic life, he let himself be inspired by the art of the past and the present. Fairytale lyrics and grotesque satire, tender jesting and real demonism, profound mysticism and sober romanticism live in Klee's work, which always radiates his personal sphere with all its variety. In this monograph, an immensely compressed picture of the artistic as well as the human side of his career evolves by way of the extensive pictorial material and accompanying essays, a picture which gives information about "Klee's contribution to the expansion of artistic articulation"."--Jacket.
Book Synopsis A Critical History of Contemporary Architecture by : Elie G. Haddad
Download or read book A Critical History of Contemporary Architecture written by Elie G. Haddad and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-12-05 with total page 734 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 1960, following as it did the last CIAM meeting, signalled a turning point for the Modern Movement. From then on, architecture was influenced by seminal texts by Aldo Rossi and Robert Venturi, and gave rise to the first revisionary movement following Modernism. Bringing together leading experts in the field, this book provides a comprehensive, critical overview of the developments in architecture from 1960 to 2010. It consists of two parts: the first section providing a presentation of major movements in architecture after 1960, and the second, a geographic survey that covers a wide range of territories around the world. This book not only reflects the different perspectives of its various authors, but also charts a middle course between the 'aesthetic' histories that examine architecture solely in terms of its formal aspects, and the more 'ideological' histories that subject it to a critique that often skirts the discussion of its formal aspects.

Book Synopsis Lewerentz Fragments by : Jonathan Foote
Download or read book Lewerentz Fragments written by Jonathan Foote and published by Actar D, Inc.. This book was released on 2021-09-03 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The publication Lewerentz Fragments introduces new scholarship on the architect’s motivations and compiles new essays from all the major scholars on his work, for the first time in one volume presenting both historical and critical perspectives. Through new essays, recently discovered archival material, photography, and drawings, the publication Lewerentz Fragments explores the architect’s body of work spanning three-quarters of the twentieth century. Comprising writings from all the major scholars on Lewerentz’ work, along with several new voices, this publication offers new insight into the context surrounding this architect’s work. Rather than focusing on a single thesis, the book offers a diversity of insight from multiple cultural and professional perspectives. In addition, previously unpublished translations of interviews and dialogs among the architect and his contemporaries offer a voice to the ‘silent architect’ altering the traditional interpretations of the work and digging past the surface of what might be considered his philosophy of building. Rather than serving as an introduction to the architect’s work, this volume provides detailed fragments as a deep and diverse dive into one of the most mysterious of Scandinavia’s modern masters.

Book Synopsis 9 x 9 – A Method of Design by : Dietmar Eberle
Download or read book 9 x 9 – A Method of Design written by Dietmar Eberle and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 2018-07-09 with total page 542 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An ideal design is site-specific, which is the only way architecture can create or connect with a specific sense of identity. This requires addressing the structural and local circumstances. This method handbook offers a playful way in which to systematically ascertain a complex framework and use it for your own design. The "9 x 9 method" takes all relevant factors and their alternate interaction into consideration: location, structure, shell, program, and materiality, all which, in a matrix with various intersections, produce exactly 9 "fields of action" for the design. The individual "fields" are not only illustrated visually with meaningful and eidetic pictures, but are also discussed in texts by leading specialists. For this book, the "9 x 9 method" was completely re-worked and redesigned. Authors: Florian Aicher, Jia Beisi, Adam Caruso, Dietmar Eberle, Franziska Hauser, Vittorio Magnago Lampugnani, Michele Lanza, Arno Lederer, Silvain Malfroy, Adrian Meyer, Marcello Nasso, Fritz Neumeyer, András Pálffy, Miroslav Šik, Laurent Stalder, Eberhard Tröger.
