Space and time, being two important aspects, play crucial role in the perception of built environment. This book addresses the concept of space-time...

The Places and Spaces of Fashion, 1800-2007
ISBN: 9780415961493 / Angielski / Twarda / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Places and Spaces of Fashion, 1800-2007 brings together art, design, fashion, and a much neglected concern for its spatial realities. The spaces and places of fashion have often been overlooked in the writing of fashion history and visual culture. More often than not, however, these environments mitigate, control, inform, and enhance how fashion is experienced, performed, consumed, seen, exhibited, purchased, appreciated and of course displayed. Space, as this volume attempts to illustrate, is itself a representational strategy on par with and influencing the visibility and visuality...

This second edition is fully revised and updated and includes new chapters on sustainability, history and archaeology, designing through drawing and drawing in architectural practice. The book introduces design and graphic techniques aimed to help designers increase their understanding of buildings and places through drawing.

By combining design theory with practical lessons in drawing,...

Christianity and the Arts in Russia
ISBN: 9780521089234 / Angielski / Miękka / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The contributors to this 1992 book examine various aspects of the relationship among Christianity and the visual arts, architecture and music in Russia.

The related interests of the contributors create a...

A Well-Composed Body - Anthropomorphism in Architecture
ISBN: 9783639066524 / Angielski / Miękka / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This work examines how changing conceptions of the human body have been interpreted within architectural theory since the writings of Vitruvius in the first century AD. It will examine how measures of the body have affected ideas of architectural composition, and how they are used as an ethical imperative, such that a building which reflects the proportions of a 'well-composed' body (Francesco di Giorgio), is itself an injunction to 'composure', or appropriate behaviour. It will argue that modern architecture, while rejecting classical anthropomorphism, was nonetheless influenced by ideas and...

"Lammert Leslie Dykstra, Project Architect of the Sky Tower in Auckland and the subsequent Macau Tower, had learnt about the integration of structure and form. He developed these understandings in his post-graduate study, where he explored the integration of water and architecture.
This book has resulted from current concerns about global water usage and the increasing pollution of water environments. It asks the question, if water operates in architecture at either a technical or an aesthetic level, can architecture integrate the technical and aesthetic aspects of water? The research...

THE ONE THIRD YOU ARE MISSING - Designing Third Places to Revitalize Downtowns
ISBN: 9783836439237 / Angielski / Miękka / 188 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This is a reminder to architects, urban planners and citizens of how the design of authentic social places in downtowns reflects and cultivates communities all over the globe, every day. Based on the theory of urban sociologist Ray Oldenburg, Third Places offer a neutral ground for contemporary citizens to balance the demanding domestic (home) and gainful (work) realms of life. Numerous examples of Third Places exist in cultures and cities: cafés, barbershops, laundromats, delis, pubs, gyms and billiard halls. The concept focuses on the benefits of community-university partnerships aimed at...
