Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ZERO PIRANESI Giovanni Battista Piranesi's engravings, Campo Marzio dell'antica Roma of 1762, have a peculiar position within the discipline of ar- chitecture. With their dissemination, the folio collection of six etch- ings have till this day nurtured architects' speculations on the city. Since the Enlightenment, they - and in particular the Campo Marzio plan - have fuelled research, discussions and visions for the future of architecture. These engravings are also some of the most beau- tiful documents in Western architectural history. Zero Piranesi, is guest-edited by Peter Trummer. It celebrates Piranesi's vision of ancient Rome and the disciplinary search of the endless realities within his Campo Marzio plan of Rome. For Trummer, Zero Piranesi suggests an ar- chitectural methodology based on a theory of replacement. With it, Piranesi's plan of Rome is transformed into an "Object Plan" - a plan where multiple authors' various positions are absorbed. Thus, the "Object Plan" contains a kaleidoscope of ideas which form a crust of architectural speculations accumulated within. Zero Piranesi presents the seminal projects of Peter Eisenman and amongst others, Michael Young and Marrikka Trotter. Trummer's own version of Campo Marzio comprises of drawings and a text that together construct Zero Piranesi. Finally, the journal features the award winning projects of Städel-
Book Synopsis Inflection 06: Originals by : Sir Peter Cook
Download or read book Inflection 06: Originals written by Sir Peter Cook and published by AADR – Art Architecture Design Research. This book was released on 2019-09-16 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Architects are expected to create original ideas resulting in a unique, bespoke design. With the rise of Modern Architecture, originality became ingrained in perceptions of good design. As a result, originality has become a barometer against which we measure the value of design. However technology today allows for ease of replication and copies, thus originality in design has become an ostensibly hollow prospect. Originals gathers a wide range of responses, varied in their opinions and approaches to originality and authorship in design and architecture. Inflection is a student-run design journal based at the Melbourne School of Design, University of Melbourne. Born from a desire to stimulate debate and generate ideas, it advocates the discursive voice of students, academics and practitioners. Founded in 2013, Inflection is a home for provocative writing—a place to share ideas and engage with contemporary discourse.
Book Synopsis How to make yourself a Feminist Design Power Tool by : Hélène Frichot

This book was released on 2016-11-01 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Set amidst the experimental ecology of practices that supports feminist thinking and doing in architecture, this small book outlines an instruc- tion guide that presents six provocative steps toward the invention of productive concept-tools. It invites readers to explore creative and messy methodologies that combine an aesthetics with a practical ethics. Frichot encourages us to think and do architecture in ways that challenge a dog- matic status quo that celebrates major gures, while overlooking the care and labour of minor gures and practices.
Book Synopsis Architectural Aesthetic Speculations by : Jasper Michael
Download or read book Architectural Aesthetic Speculations written by Jasper Michael and published by AADR – Art Architecture Design Research. This book was released on 2016-11-01 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Architectural Aesthetic Speculations expands our understanding of the role of formal aesthetic criteria in twentieth-century artistic practices and reveals potentially transformative aspects in the art of architectural composition. The book stages an encounter of philosopher Gilles Deleuze's (1925–1995) constructivist sensibility and architect Louis Kahn's (1901–1974) mode of architectural figuration. This book is of interest to architects, artists, historians and theorists and to those wishing to learn about contemporary aesthetic practice and theory.
Download or read book Dirty Theory written by Hélène Frichot and published by AADR – Art Architecture Design Research. This book was released on 2019-10-25 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dirty theory follows the dirt of material and conceptual relations from the midst of complex milieus. It messes with mixed disciplines, showing up in ethnography, in geography, in philosophy, and discovering a suitable habitat in architecture, design and the creative arts. Dirty theory disrupts a comfortable status quo, including our everyday modes of inhabitation and our habits of thinking. This small book argues that we must work with the dirt to develop an ethics of care and mainte- nance for our precarious environment-worlds.
Book Synopsis Inflection 01 : Inflection by : Bernard Cache
Download or read book Inflection 01 : Inflection written by Bernard Cache and published by AADR – Art Architecture Design Research. This book was released on 2014-10-01 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is Inflection? On a prosaic level, Inflection is the new student-run journal of architecture and the built environment from the Melbourne School of Design and published by AADR – Art Architecture Design Research. Inflection is a themed journal, to be published annually and features work from students, academics and practitioners. Crucially, Inflection is also a physical object – an artefact to be touched, handled and read in depth. At a time when our engagement with architectural ideas is increasingly digital and transient, Inflection offers a different, slower form of discourse and in doing so, hopes to facilitate and engage in conversations about the built environment both locally and internationally. In this issue, the word 'inflection' serves as our point of departure. The authors featured here enter into conversations on edge conditions, ambiguous boundaries and the role and nature of transitions. Individually, the pieces collected here stand as insightful variations on a theme. Taken together, they form something much richer: a constellation of ideas to be parsed, discussed, compared and expanded upon. INFLECTION is a space to gather and share ideas. INFLECTION is a home for provocative thought. INFLECTION asserts the value of the printed word. INFLECTION values the discursive voice of students, academics and professionals. Like all journals, all change starts somewhere. INFLECTION starts here: we leave the change to you.

Book Synopsis Scandalous Space by : Alessandro Zambelli
Download or read book Scandalous Space written by Alessandro Zambelli and published by AADR – Art Architecture Design Research. This book was released on 2019-10-01 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If architecture is a design-centred discipline which proceeds by suggesting propositional constructions then, Zambelli argues, archaeology also designs, but in the form of reconstructions. He proposes that whilst practitioners of architecture and archaeology generally purport to practice in future-facing and past-facing-modes respectively, elements of these disciplines also resemble one another. Zambelli speculates that whilst some of these resemblances have remained explicit and revealed, others have become occluded with time, but that all such resemblances share homological similarities of interconnected disciplinary origin making available in the scandalous space between them a logically underpinned, visually analogical form of practice.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The term 'big data' is virtually ubiquitous in both cultural and technical contexts. The fifth volume of Inflection is an open-ended investigation into how designers are interpreting and countering the prevailing narrative that pushes for greater efficiency and automation using sophisticated data analytics. Feedback gathers a wide range of responses, united by their collective advocacy for a sophisticated understanding of processes, frameworks and ethics.

This book was released on 2021-12-08 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sonic Wilderness accesses the critical value of unusual vinyl records that concern our relationship with nature. These wild records reveal unconventional perspectives on the entanglements of human life with animals, gardens and plants. They form a lyrical unconscious exposing the conventions and ideologies of popular music, their warped perspectives and acoustic radioactivity comprising a resistance to enduring social, psychological and political conditions.
Book Synopsis MORE WATER LESS LAND NEW ARCHITECTURE by : Weston Wright
Download or read book MORE WATER LESS LAND NEW ARCHITECTURE written by Weston Wright and published by AADR – Art Architecture Design Research. This book was released on 2023-09-26 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Climate change, and the inevitability of sea level rise, will require much more of us than simply pulling back from the coastline. The thesis of Weston Wright's More Water Less Land New Architecture is that we need to start thinking in an entirely different way about the relationship of cities to waterfront sites and of the relationship of buildings to water, which means rethinking many of architecture's implicit premises. If architecture has been confrontational with water—think bold towers erected beside the sea, as if to dare the water to challenge them—Wright's argument is that we will need to be modest, accommodating, and accepting of the power and presence of water if our cities are to survive. He knows that nature is stronger than we are, and that best chance mankind has to build successfully will be to build with, not against, the reality of water. This is an important book, not least because its quiet, sober tone balances natural history with architectural history, and reaches across the world to show examples of architecture that accommodates to the water ranging from small vernacular houses on stilts to huge megastructures anchored like islands in the sea. Although Wright's argument transcends aesthetics or style, his book is, in the end, a case for the strength that comes from restraint, and perhaps even for the lasting power of gentlenes
Book Synopsis The Death of Urbanism by : Marcus White
Download or read book The Death of Urbanism written by Marcus White and published by AADR – Art Architecture Design Research. This book was released on 2020-02-17 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Koolhaas pronounced urbanism dead in 1995. Since then, urban design has struggled to come to terms with this and other losses including environmental stability, af- fordable housing, design control, and urban amenity. This book explores urban design paradigms transitioning through a misappropriation of Kübler-Ross' "five stages of grief" – from pro-sprawl 'denial', NIMBY 'anger', revisionist NewUrban, 'bargaining', 'depressed' starchitects, through to an optimistic manifesto of 'acceptance'.
Book Synopsis A Ficto-Historical Theory of the London Underground by : Marko Jobst

This book was released on 2017-10-25 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a vision of the London Underground written in the form of a ficto-historical narrative, which combines history and fiction in the creation of a set of theoretical propositions for London's subterranean transportation network. Its amateur-scholar protagonist takes the reader on a labyrinthine journey into the world of research, with sources personified and their works appropriated and subverted. The book offers a model for practising writing and research in the context of architectural history and theory.
Book Synopsis The Society of Interiors by : Rochus Hinkel
Download or read book The Society of Interiors written by Rochus Hinkel and published by AADR – Art Architecture Design Research. This book was released on 2016-11-01 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Society of Interiors discusses a variety of spatial practices which critique, reveal, and resist the economical logic of a neo-liberal market. A market that caters for exclusiveness and individualities, where public space becomes an interior, that is highly controlled and privatized. The different essays unpack, develop and expand a diversity of interior and spatial practices in urban contexts that allow for a diverse public, express differences, and create other experiences and situations. Authors include the architect and researcher Tatjana Schneider, editor of the publication Spatial Agency (Routledge 2011); the activist architect Petra Pferdmenges from alive architecture in Brussels, the architectural theorist Peter Lang; the architect and artist Tor Lindstrand; as well as Rochus Hinkel, whose research focuses on the intersections between interior, architecture and urban environments.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the context of recent global political and economic disruption, architecture seems no longer equipped to address the demands of contem- porary society as an isolated discipline. One solution offered in this crisis of relevance is the notion of transdisciplinarity characterised by the hybridisa- tion of distinct disciplines. Transdisciplinarity is the New Order. In ection Volume 3 explores the achievements, limitations and future implications of this transdisciplinary age, weaving together a fragment of the tapestry that is expanded architectural practice. In tracing the trajectory of this New Order, this issue uncovers the matter that binds architecture together in this fragmented, yet hyperconnected epoch.

Download or read book Inflection 04: Permanence written by Elizabeth Diller and published by AADR – Art Architecture Design Research. This book was released on 2017-10-25 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Permanence as an architectural concept is no longer restricted to the Vitruvian virtue of firmitas. To think about it in this sense today produces a schism: absolutism in a world of relativism. The fourth volume of Inflection extrapolates the permanent and the temporary not as opposing forces, but as a spectrum to be navigated at each stage of architecture's unfolding narrative. Through each of the responses presented in this year's edition, Permanence provides a critical voice as architecture and design continually seek an enduring foothold in an inherently evolving landscape, physical or otherwise.

Book Synopsis IMAGINARIES ON MATTER: TOOLS, MATERIALS, ORIGINS by : Thomas Bo Jensen
Download or read book IMAGINARIES ON MATTER: TOOLS, MATERIALS, ORIGINS written by Thomas Bo Jensen and published by AADR – Art Architecture Design Research. This book was released on 2023-11-21 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imaginaries on Matter – Tools, Materials, Origins, promotes an innovative architectural research agenda that connects historical-cultural written research with digitally led material explorations. The common thread is the notion of the material imagination, disclosed in the reverie, or material daydream, which challenges overly pragmatic or unreflective material choices within current architectural practice. In bonding our imagination directly with matter while also confronting new technologies, this book promotes strategies by which architects' and builders' future relations with materials can stay rooted within the deeper concerns of cultural meaning. Imaginaries on Matter includes interviews with Aulets Arquitectes, Alibi Studio, Ensamble Studio, Geometria, Helen & Hard, KieranTimberlake, Supermanoeuvre, and Vandkunsten, as well as a postscript by David Leatherbarrow.

Book Synopsis Reality Modeled After Images by : Michael Young
Download or read book Reality Modeled After Images written by Michael Young and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-08-30 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reality Modeled After Images: Architecture and Aesthetics after the Digital Image explores architecture’s entanglement with contemporary image culture. It looks closely at how changes produced through technologies of mediation alter disciplinary concepts and produce political effects. Through both historical and contemporary examples, it focuses on how conventions of representation are established, maintained, challenged, and transformed. Critical investigations are conjoined with inquiries into aesthetics and technology in the hope that the tensions between them can aid an exploration into how architectural images are produced, disseminated, and valued; how images alter assumptions regarding the appearances of architecture and the environment. For students and academics in architecture, design and media studies, architectural and art history, and related fields, this book shows how design is impacted and changed by shifts in image culture, representational conventions and technologies.
