The Work of Mackay-Lyons Sweetapple Architects: Economy as Ethic
ISBN: 9780500343319 / Angielski / Twarda / 372 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Economy as an ethical imperative leads to creating the "maximal" experience with minimal form, material, and cost. Reinforcing this imperative is the architects' engagement of their place of practice, coastal Nova Scotia, and its climate, landform, and material culture. The practice has evolved plan types that allow the architects to engage the land and climate of their native Nova Scotia, and is also focused on the importance of the interior spatial experience. The work of... The work of MacKay-Lyons Sweetapple Architects embodies two interrelated primary principles: economy and place. Economy as an ethical imperative le... |
