Taylor & Francis Ltd Museums and Design for Creative Lives
Book SynopsisMuseums and Design for Creative Lives questions what we sacrifice when we allow economic imperatives to shape public museums, whilst also considering the implications of these new museum realities. It also asks: how might we instead design for creative lives?Drawing together 28 case studies of museum design spanning 70 years, the book explores the spatial and social forms that comprise these successful examples, as well as the design methodologies through which they were produced. Re-activating a well-trodden history of progressive museum design and raising awareness of the involvement of the built forms in how we feel, think and act, MacLeod provides strategies and methods to actively counter the economisation of museums and a call to museum makers to work beyond the economic and advance this deeply human history of museum making. Museums and Design for Creative Lives will be of great interest to academics and students in museum stTrade Review"For anyone who believes that museums have the potential to act as powerful agents for social change, Museums and Design for Creative Lives is a must-read. MacLeod applies a theoretical framework of social space to current museum practice that not only identifies unchallenged assumptions about goals, standards, and processes in museums, but also articulates essential qualities and values inherent in what she calls "progressive museum design." The theory comes to life in the second part of the book, which explores the many visions, intentions, and design practices in 28 museum case studies of progressive museum design from around the world. Most importantly, MacLeod summarizes with six frames of mind or calls to action that provide us with concrete, provocative, and energizing ways forward." — Kathleen McLean, USATable of ContentsPart 1; Chapter 1 The economization of museums and the ‘truth’ of space; Chapter 2 Landscapes of potential: the social and spatial underpinnings of museums; Chapter 3 Design for creative lives: new museum design cultures; Bibliography; Part 2; 4.

Taylor & Francis Town Planning
Book SynopsisThe planning of urban and rural areas requires thinking about where people will live, work, play, study, shop and how they will get about the place, and to devise strategies for long time periods. Town Planning: The Basics provides a general introduction to the components of urban areas, including housing, transportation and infrastructure, and health and environment, showing how appropriate policies can be developed. Explaining planning activity at different scales of operation, this book distinguishes between the big stuff, the grand strategy for providing homes, jobs and infrastructure; the medium stuff, the design and location of development; and the small stuff affecting mainly small sites and individual households.Planning as an activity is part of a complex web stretching way beyond the planning office, and this book provides an overview of the many components needed to create a successful town. It is invaluable to anyone with an interest in planning, from studeTable of ContentsIntroduction Chapter 1 The Big Stuff - Planning Gets Started: Planning Is Conceived as a Way of Confronting Some Big Issues Chapter 2 The First Big Issues: Houses and Infrastructure Chapter 3 More Big Issues - Employment and the Regions: Planning for Changing EmploymentChapter 4 More Big Issues - Health, Environment and the Countryside Chapter 5 More Big Issues - Getting Around: Dealing with Transport in Urban Areas Chapter 6 The Medium Stuff - Where to Put Things?: The Design and Laying Out of Urban AreasChapter 7 The Small Stuff: The Day-to-Day Work of the Planning Office Chapter 8 Policies and Decisions: How a Planning System Works Conclusion
