Opis

It assembles a range of diverse voices across different institutions, practices, generations and locations to reveal the design influence of geometry and the processes of fabrication and construction on architecture.

Recenzje

"Lineament traces out a shared set of concerns among a generation of practitioners who are producing compelling new work at the same time as they contribute to ongoing academic debates. The editors have assembled a diverse group capable of moving freely between analog and digital production, and equally comfortable with discursive and material practices. This is a body of work in which projects do not simply illustrate theoretical concepts articulated elsewhere, but instead demonstrate an intricate interplay between ideas and things." - Stan Allen, Architect and George Dutton Professor of Architecture, Princeton University, USA
