Taylor & Francis Ltd Reality Modeled After Images
Book SynopsisReality 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 conventTable of ContentsIntroduction: Reality Modeled after ImagesPart 1: Poché and the Rendering of Labor1.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Engaging with Heritage and Historic Environment
Book SynopsisA comprehensive review of policy and practice in the historic environment, this book exposes the tensions, challenges and difficulties faced by the heritage sector at a time of political volatility.This collection comes at a key moment for planning policy in the historic environment of England. The papers reflect a wide range of views and experience in the practical environment of policy and implementation. Contributors give perspectives on both policy and practice from legal counsel to local authorities, from the country's largest NGO to the museums sector. Some conclusions are controversial, providing an important insight into the operation of national and local government. The thrust of the volume is the need to close the gap between research and policy production. Written when the UK government's White Paper, Planning for the Future (August 2020), was in preparation, the chapters explore the implementation of policy, its unexpected and unanticipated outcomesTable of ContentsIntroduction: Engaging with Policy in England - Agency, Interpretation and ImplementationHana Morel and Michael Dawson1.

Taylor & Francis Ltd The Growing Trend of Living Small
Book SynopsisThis book examines the growing trend for housing models that shrink private living space and seeks to understand the implications of these shrinking domestic worlds. Small spaces have become big business. Reducing the size of our homes, and the amount of stuff within them, is increasingly sold as a catch-all solution to the stresses of modern life and the need to reduce our carbon footprint. Shrinking living space is being repackaged in a neoliberal capitalist context as a lifestyle choice rather than the consequence of diminishing choice in the face of what has become a long-term housing crisis'. What does this mean for how we live in the long term, and is there a dark side to the promise of a simpler, more sustainable home life? Shrinking Domesticities brings together research from across the social sciences, planning and architecture to explore these issues. From co-living developments to the Tiny House Movement, self-storage units to practices of de-stuffification', and dTable of ContentsIntroduction;1 Co-living Housing-as-a-Service and COVID-19: Micro-housing and Institutional Precarity-Tegan Bergan & Rae Dufty-Jones; 2 Shifting Domesticities in the Metropole Hotel-Jeffrey Kruth; 3 Political Narratives of Shrinking Domesticities in Helsinki and Vienna-Johanna Lilius, Michael Friesenecker & Maximilian Krankl;4 Shrinking aspirations: the potential impact of Build to Rent models on housing transitions-Daniel Durrant & Frances Brill; 5 Glamorising the materiality of ‘living small’: De-stuffocation, storage, and tiny living aesthetics-Jen Owen; 6 Freedom or dispossession?

Taylor & Francis Ltd Designing Liners A History of Interior Design
Book SynopsisDesigning Liners: A History of Interior Design Afloat covers the interior design of these floating palaces from the mid-nineteenth century to the twenty-first century. In this new edition, the design heritage of the ocean liner is also explored in this age of a growing holiday cruise market. The book offers the first history and analysis of this highly significant aspect of the design of interiors, which mirrors and reinforces cultural assumptions about national identity, gender, class, and ethnicity. The interiors of ocean liners reflect the changing hierarchies of society and shifting patterns of globalization. The trajectory of the professionalization of interior design is the connecting narrative of the book, from the local decorating firm to the internationally renowned architect. It is an important addition to interior design research and takes this transitory building type as its subject. This book provides the first survey of the transient history of iTrade Review"Designing Liners was the first study of ocean liner interior design. This revised edition adds detailed analysis of the glamorous, nostalgic interiors designed for today’s giant cruise ships while also considering growing concerns over the environmental impact of these behemoths and anticipating their future in an age of pandemic. It remains the definitive study of passenger ship interiors."Dr Gregory Votolato, Victoria & Albert Museum and Royal College of Art"Wonderful to see this seminal text in its second edition; updates on enduring popular fascination with ocean liners and the current compelling discussion of the cruise industry."Dr Harriet Mckay, The Cass School of Art, Architecture & Design, LondonTable of Contents1.

Taylor & Francis Creating a Culture of Predictable Outcomes
Book SynopsisCreating a Culture of Predictable Outcomes demonstrates the importance of creating cultures in the design and construction industries grounded in sophisticated-caring leadership, high-performing collaborative teams, and master-level decision-making discipline, informed by values, to finally address massive inefficiencies, waste, and unpredictability. Barbara White Bryson offers specific guidance to industry stakeholders to succeed in achieving project-related predictable outcomes by focusing on culture rather than process. This includes selecting the right team members by hiring and firing bravely, valuing psychological safety, leading with values, practicing respect and transparency, fostering empowerment to make decisions at the right level at the right time, and more.This book is a must-read for design and construction professionals who want to finally understand how to set goals and meet those goals for their clients as well as for their teams. Trade ReviewIn her straightforward manner, Barbara White Bryson speaks directly to the fundamental misses inhibiting the built environment industry from firing on all cylinders. A blend of in-depth domain knowledge and relatable storytelling, Creating a Culture of Predictable Outcomes will stand as foundational to the professions for years to come. - David G. Gilmore, President & CEO, DesignIntelligenceWorking with Barbara on the Rice Bioscience Research Collaborative was one of the best project experiences our team at SOM has had. Her real-world experiences, including senior academic and strategic leadership, as well as being an architect with an MBA and Doctorate in Higher Education, make Barbara uniquely adept at describing comprehensive and highly effective strategies with analogous references that are clear, engaging and memorable. - Carrie Byles, FAIA, LEED BD+C, Partner SOM"Predictability is power." There are no truer words spoken than this premise from Barbara White Bryson’s illuminating and strategic book, particularly in a time of chaos and mismanagement. Barbara’s book is an imminently useful read for firm leaders at any phase in their careers. Universally, business, design and engineering schools will use this book to demonstrate predictability as the active decision-making model we need. - James Timberlake, FAIA, Architect/Partner, Kieran Timberlake, PhiladelphiaCreating a Culture of Predictable Outcomes packs a powerful message while forging a new path for the industry, one that is more nimble, adaptable and resilient. Bryson’s list outlining twenty disruptions that will impact our future is alone worth the price of the book.
