Download or read book Urban Design Made by Humans written by Anirban Adhya and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-09-29 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The design of urban environments is complex and involves diverse needs, organisations, professions, authorities, and communities. It requires relationships to be constructed and sustained between infrastructure, resources, and populations across multiple scales. This can be quite daunting. However, at the core of urban design is a simple idea—our urban spaces are designed to allow people and communities to thrive. For that reason, a good starting point for urban designers is to focus on the way people think when engaging our built environment. This thinking is embodied, developed through the interactions between our mind, body, and the environment around us. These embodied concepts are central to how we see the world, how we move and gather, and how we interact with others. They are also the same ideas we use to design our environments and cities. Urban Design Made by Humans is a reference book that presents 56 concepts, notions, ideas, and agreements fundamental to the design and interpretation of our human settlements. The ideas here parallel those found in Making Architecture Through Being Human but extends them into urban environments. Urban Design Made by Humans distinctly highlights priorities in urban design in how we produce meaningful environments catering to wider groups of people. Each idea is isolated for clarity with short and concise definitions, examples, and illustrations. They are organised in five sections of increasing complexity. Taken as a whole, the entries frame the priorities and values of urban design while also being instances of a larger system of human thinking.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From one of continental philosophy's most distinctive voices comes a creative contribution to spatial studies, environmental philosophy, and phenomenology. Edward S. Casey identifies how important edges are to us, not only in terms of how we perceive our world, but in our cognitive, artistic, and sociopolitical attentions to it. We live in a world that is constantly on edge, yet edges as such are rarely explored. Casey systematically describes the major and minor edges that configure the human and other-than-human realms, including our everyday experience. He also explores edges in high- stakes situations, such as those that emerge in natural disasters, moments of political and economic upheaval, and encroaching climate change. Casey's work enables a more lucid understanding of the edge-world that is a necessary part of living in a shared global environment.

Download or read book Interior Design on Edge written by Erica Morawski and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-04-25 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interior Design on Edge explores ways that interiors both constitute and upset our edges, whether physical, conceptual or psychological, imagined, implied, necessary or discriminatory. The essays in this volume explore these questions in history, theory, and praxis through a focus on different periods, cultures, and places. Interior Design on Edge showcases new scholarship that expands and contests traditional relationships between architecture, interiors, and the people that use and design them, provoking readers to consider the interior differently, moving beyond its traditional, architectural definition. Focusing on the concept of interiority considered in a wider sense, it draws on interdisciplinary modes of investigation and analysis and reflects the latest theoretical developments in the fields of interior design history and practice. With new research from both established and emerging authors, this volume will make a valuable contribution to the fields of Interior Design, Architecture, Art and Design History, Cultural History, Visual Culture Studies, and Urban Studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you want to learn more about quantum physics but are unsure where to begin? If so, continue reading. Prepare to unlock the mysteries of the cosmos with this useful, approachable guide to quantum physics! The study of quantum physics examines the microscopic behavior of the tiniest components of matter. Predicting what we observe on a macroscopic level is a key issue in quantum physics. Utilizing quantum mechanics, which takes into account the components that are too small to quantify, this is accomplished. Every time an object interacts with another one, like when an atom or photon collides with another particle, energy is transferred from the first state to the second. Quantum energy, also known as E-Q, is the energy that is transported from a quantum's initial state to its new state. In this comprehensive manual, you'll learn: - What Exactly Are Quantum Mechanics And Quantum Physics? - How Did Quantum Physics Get its Start? - What Exactly Are Light Particles? - Fundamental Uncertainty - The Cat of Schrodinger - Waves And Quantum Possibilities - Understanding The Curve Of The Black Body With The "Dark Body" Spectrum - A Simple Introduction To String Theory For Novices - Those Dark Holes plus a lot more! You don't have to be a scientist or mathematician to understand the world of quantum physics, even if you think it's a difficult subject. By keeping complexity and math to a minimal, the astounding universal rules that govern reality are intended to be revealed to you in this book. Therefore, this book Quantum Physics for Beginners is for you; don't be afraid of complicated math! This comprehensive manual will hold your hand and make it simple for you to delve into the world of quantum physics. Your understanding of these ideas, which are difficult for regular people to comprehend, will impress your friends! Are you prepared to start exploring the world of quantum physics?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recently there has been a plethora of work published on the topic of sustainability, much of which is purely theoretical or technical in its approach. More often than not these books fail to introduce readers to the larger challenge of what thinking sustainably might entail. Combining a series of well know authors in contemporary philosophy with established practitioners of sustainable design, this book develops a coherent theoretical framework for how theories of sustainability might engage with the growing practice of design. This book: brings together new and emerging perspectives on sustainability provides cohesive and jargon-free reading articulates the specificity of both theory and practice, to develop a symbiotic relationship which allows the reader to understand what thinking sustainably entails This volume describes a variety of new ways to approach sustainable design and it equips the next generation of designers with necessary conceptual tools for thinking sustainably.

Download or read book The Street written by Vikas Mehta and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-03-05 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Received the Environmental Design Research Association's 2014 Place Book Award Shortlisted for the UDG Francis Tibbalds Book Award 2014 Good cities are places of social encounter. Creating public spaces that encourage social behavior in our cities and neighborhoods is an important goal of city design. One of the cardinal roles of the street, as public space, is to provide a setting for sociability. How do we make sociable streets? This book shows us how these ordinary public spaces can be planned and designed to become settings that support an array of social behaviors. Through carefully crafted research, The Street systematically examines people's actions and perceptions, develops a comprehensive typology of social behaviors on the neighborhood commercial street and provides a thorough inquiry into the social dimensions of streets. Vikas Mehta shows that sociability is not a result of the physical environment alone, but is achieved by the relationships between the physical environment, the land uses, their management, and the places to which people assign special meanings. Scholars and students of urban design, planning, architecture, geography and sociology will find the book a stimulating resource. The material is also directly applicable to practice and should be widely read by professional urban designers, planners, architects, and others involved in the design, planning, and implementation of commercial streets.
