ISBN: 9781789693676 / Angielski / Miękka / 2019 / 108 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Architectures of Fire attempts to present the entanglement between the physical phenomenon of fire, the pyro-technological instrument that it is, its material supports, and the human being. In this perspective, the physical process of combustion, material culture, as well as the development of human action in space, are addressed together. Fire is located at the centre of all pre-modern architecture. It creates the living or technological space. Fire creates architectures since it imposes geometry, from the simple circles of stone or clay, which control its spread (and which are the...

Depending on the raw material used and the process of manipulation and its relationship with the environment,...
