The book shows the lessons learnt by practitioners, and asks important questions as to how architectural practice can and should develop and adapt post-pandemic. * Jeremy Till, Professor of Architecture, University of the Arts London, UK *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eList of Figures Acknowledgements  \u003cb\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/b\u003e The return of Dr Rieux Responses to the pandemic ‘Distant’ as a new form of knowledge Architecture after Covid  \u003cb\u003eChapter 1:  A ‘parasite’ in the city\u003c\/b\u003e Occupying space Architecture and illness Virus, lab, city The laboratorization of space  \u003cb\u003eChapter 2:  The laboratorization of urban space \u003c\/b\u003e Deserted cities, empty buildings Counting bodies  Spacing, distancing Contactless lives Sanitizing, face covering The new ‘modulor’ Pandemic pictograms De-centring the disease The power of entrapment Urban metamorphosis: the new technologies of containment and visibility  \u003cb\u003eChapter 3: Pandemic variations of design practice\u003c\/b\u003e Routines: the ‘magic’ of the office space Slowing down: the return to the verbal, the written and the sketch Stepping aside and speeding up: technological developments New compositions: re-connecting with the ‘others’ New variants of practice  \u003cb\u003eConclusion: Architectural research extended to things  \u003c\/b\u003e Historicity and virus New reflexivity, new methods  Bibliography Index","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48738613231959,"sku":"9781350271067","price":21.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781350271067.jpg?v=1720049654"},{"product_id":"architectural-design-with-sketchup-9781394161133","title":"Architectural Design with SketchUp","description":"\u003cb\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcknowledgments xiii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAbout the Companion Website xv\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChapter 1: Introduction 1\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.1 A Multitude of SketchUp Users 1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.2 How Does SketchUp Fit into the Designer’s Toolbox?

The language of John Simpson's architecture, which derives from the fifth century BC, has been daringly applied to new uses and an instant landmark of exceptional interest has been created. Through a judicious combination of Classical richness and warehouse-like workspace the Walsh Family Hall provides a humane and joyous series of spaces, which elevates the spirits of those entering and passing through it.    This book describes not only the architecture of the Walsh Family Hall but the process whereby it came into existence, with written contributions from the generous donors, Matt and Joyce Walsh; Dean Michael Lykoudis, who commissioned the building; and some of the students who work in these uplifting surroundings. Further educational works by John Simpson such as his new 'yard' for Eton College and major new improvements to the Royal College of Music in London are described, with an essay by Simpson describing his approach. All these works are presented and explored with full colour commissioned photography, drawn plans and original sketches throughout.    John Simpson Architects believes that Classicism can enhance life in the twenty-first century by creating inspirational spaces that relate to the proportions of the human body - a view of architecture that is triumphantly demonstrated in the Academy that is the Walsh Family Hall.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePreface; The Walsh Family Hall - Introduction, Context, Competition Evolution; The Finished Building; The Student Experience; The Ecole des Beaux-Arts; The Architecture of Education - Eton College, Lady Margaret Hall, Gonville \u0026amp; Caius, Peterhouse, The Defence \u0026amp; National Rehabilitation Centre, The Royal College of Music; Acknowledgements; Credits; Colophon.","brand":"Triglyph Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48742837748055,"sku":"9781916355422","price":38.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781916355422.jpg?v=1720063013"},{"product_id":"realtime-making-digital-china-9782889153459","title":"Realtime – Making Digital China","description":"\u003cb\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eRealtime\u003c\/i\u003e is an investigation into China’s digital and urban infrastructure, practices, and imaginary spaces.

It is also the first comprehensive documentation of BIG’s trailblazing practice—where method, process, instruments, and concepts are constantly questioned and redefined. Or, as the group itself says:“Historically, architecture has been dominated by two opposing extremes: an avant-garde full of crazy ideas, originating from philosophy or mysticism; and the well organized corporate consultants that build predictable and boring boxes of high standard. Architecture seems entrenched: naively utopian or petrifyingly pragmatic. We believe there is a third way between these diametric opposites: a pragmatic utopian architecture that creates socially, economically, and environmentally perfect places as a practical objective. At BIG we are devoted to investing in the overlap between radical and reality. In all our actions we try to move the focus from the little details to the BIG picture.” Bjarke Ingels attracts highly talented coworkers, but also gifted and ambitious clients from all over the world. He then creates intelligent synergies from wild energies and unforeseen dynamics, and transforms them into surprising, functional, valuable, and beautiful solutions to the specific and complex challenges in each task. BIG projects have won awards from the Royal Academy of Fine Arts, and the Special Jury Prize at the Venice Architecture Biennale, as well as many other international prizes. Yes is More is a play on words that represents the company’s ethos and sums up its irreverent attitude towards excessive formalism, and its determination to involve the population at large in its creations. As an extension of its methods and results, its debut monograph uses the most approachable and populist means of communication available—the comic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“As a vehicle for delivering Ingel’s can-do dynamism, it works.” * Architect Magazine *","brand":"Taschen GmbH","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48743155269975,"sku":"9783836520102","price":999.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9783836520102.jpg?v=1720064351"},{"product_id":"sublime-hideaways-remote-retreats-and-residencies-9783967040913","title":"Sublime Hideaways: Remote Retreats and","description":"\u003cb\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Die Gestalten Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48743176077655,"sku":"9783967040913","price":36.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9783967040913.jpg?v=1720064446"},{"product_id":"kitchen-interiors-new-designs-and-interior-for-cooking-and-dining-9783967041200","title":"Kitchen Interiors: New Designs and Interior for","description":"\u003cb\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Die Gestalten Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48743176634711,"sku":"9783967041200","price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9783967041200.jpg?v=1720064445"},{"product_id":"container-prefab-house-plans-9788416500758","title":"Container \u0026 Prefab House Plans","description":"\u003cb\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book contains more than 250 floor and elevation plans and construction details for twenty-six prefabricated and cargo-container homes.

\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Digital tools have launched architecture into a dizzying new era, one in which wood, stone, metal, glass, and other traditional materials are augmented by pixels and code. In this ambitious exploration, an eminent thinker examines what, exactly, the building blocks of architecture have meant over the centuries and how technology may—or may not—be changing how we think about them. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Antoine Picon argues that materiality is not only about matter and that the silence and inscrutability—the otherness—of raw materials work against humanity’s need to live in a meaningful world. He describes how people define who they are, in part, through their specific physical experience of architectural materials and spaces. Indeed, Picon asserts, the entire paradox of the architectural discipline consists in its desire to render matter expressive to human beings. Through a retrospective review of canonical moments in Western European architecture, Picon offers an original perspective on the ways materiality has varied throughout centuries, demonstrating how experiences of the physical world have changed in relation to the evolution of human subjectivity. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Ultimately, Picon concludes that computer-based design methods are not an abrupt departure from previous architectural traditions but rather a new way for architects to control material resources. The result reinforces the fundamentally humanistic nature of architectural endeavor with an increasing sense of design freedom and a release from material constraint in the digital era.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Thanks to his immense knowledge of building technologies, along with the acute observations of contemporary practice made over the years, Antoine Picon has carved a masterful synthesis on the very substance of architecture. From ancient vestiges to current designs, the meaning of materials in designs and buildings is dissected in this dense, inspired volume. A must-read for students, scholars, and professionals alike.\"—Jean-Louis Cohen, author of \u003ci\u003eThe Future of Architecture Since 1889: A Worldwide History\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"This rich and synthetic book rethinks four centuries of Western architectural discourse, arguing that materiality is not a raw essence, nor a state of being, but a branch of technological thinking. In six brisk chapters, Antoine Picon wonderfully combines lucid explanations of architects’ technical processes with insights on their cultural motives. The main takeaway—and it is a brilliant one—is that materials in architecture have ultimately served as a kind of linguistic referent. A needed corrective to recent claims of dematerialization, and a highly rewarding read.\"—Lucia Allais, author of \u003ci\u003eDesigns of Destruction: The Making of Monuments in the Twentieth Century\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of Minnesota Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48867441049943,"sku":"9781517909482","price":20.69,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781517909482.jpg?v=1722283286"},{"product_id":"beauty-memory-unity-a-theory-of-proportion-in-architecture-9781584209676","title":"Beauty, Memory, Unity: A Theory of Proportion in","description":"\u003cb\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eAncient architects and artists had a way of striking resonant chords in the viewers of their work.

Organised in relation to specific topics and framed by contextual essays by Nat Chard, Mark Dorrian, Riet Eeckhout, Michael Young, Thomas-Bernard Kenniff and Carole Levesque, the book includes a selection of exquisite and fascinating key drawings by the various contributors, together with edited transcripts of discussions around drawing which developed at the symposia. The drawings presented in the book are in dialogue with one another, while their authors are themselves in extended conversation.

Built almost entirely for Span Developments, its mission was to provide an affordable environment \"that gave people a lift\".\u003cbr\u003eInfluenced by Walter Gropius, Lyons brought a commitment to high density housing and the idea of fostering community into his Span work without compromising his intuitive sensitivity for landscape. His success brought the practice an impressive array of awards and led to a term as President of the RIBA.\u003cbr\u003eThe enduring success of his design philosophy can be traced forward to 2005, when Span received a special Housing Design Award given to schemes that meet the current Sustainable Communities Plan. Indeed, the concept of Span mirrors current best practice thinking in housing design and continues to offer a fresh, relevant challenge to volume housebuilders in Britain today. This book serves as a lively reminder of that fact.\u003cbr\u003eWritten by distinguished historians, practitioners and Span enthusiasts, the book has been researched using the archive compiled by Ivor Cunningham, one of Lyons ex-partners while a detailed gazetteer contains scale plan drawings of many of Spans housing templates.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 1: The Architect in Society: Eric Lyons, his circle and his values - Neil Bingham\u003cbr\u003eChapter 2: Models for suburban living - Alan Powers\u003cbr\u003eChapter 3: Landscape first and last - Jan Woudstra\u003cbr\u003eChapter 4: Building for Span and the public sector - Elain Harwood\u003cbr\u003eChapter 5: New Ash Green: Span's 'latter 20th century village in Kent' - Patrick Ellard\u003cbr\u003eChapter 6: Community and common space: the role of residents' societies - Barbara Simms\u003cbr\u003eChapter 7: People's homes: Span in the 21st century - Madeleine Adams and Charlie MacKeith\u003cbr\u003eChapter 8: Images - Photography by Tim Crocker\u003cbr\u003eChapter 9: The Office - Compiled by Ivor Cunningham and Research Design\u003cbr\u003eChapter 10: Gazetteer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"RIBA Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48868826480983,"sku":"9781859468425","price":33.25,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781859468425.jpg?v=1722289899"},{"product_id":"contexts-the-work-of-hodder-partners-9781859468265","title":"Contexts: The Work of Hodder + Partners","description":"\u003cb\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eContexts: The Work of Hodder + Partners\u003c\/i\u003e brings together contributions from architectural writers, academics and journalists to review the buildings, culture and philosophy of Hodder Associates (now Hodder + Partners), founded in 1992.

With no job, no savings and no clients in the midst of a recession, Clare set up her own practice with little more than a few postcards in local shop windows and a very simple website. Determined to better combine her life and family with professional work, she created an innovative practice that is flexible and forward-looking, based around remote working and the possibilities offered by improving technology.

For some time now, many architects and designer are returning to manually drawn depictions of their designs – despite the fact that the latest computer-aided visualization techniques allow the creation of almost perfect illusions of planned build-ings. However, they often lack in conveying life and atmosphere to the building resulting in a feeling of coldness and distance from the observer. Beyond the pure conveying of information through a mechanical drawing, the various techniques of manual drawing can convey individual sentiments and impressions. The result is a larger degree of authenticity coupled with an emphasis of the human dimension of architecture.","brand":"Braun Publishing AG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48869367185751,"sku":"9783037680353","price":29.75,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9783037680353.jpg?v=1722292403"},{"product_id":"ecological-buildings-new-strategies-for-sustainable-architecture-9783037682685","title":"Ecological Buildings: New Strategies for","description":"\u003cb\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Braun Publishing AG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48869367415127,"sku":"9783037682685","price":31.96,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9783037682685.jpg?v=1722292404"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/collections\/architecture-professional-practice.oembed?page=7","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
