Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La arquitectura islámica ha cautivado siempre por la monumentalidad de sus formas y la riqueza y color de su ornamentación. Ese gran estallido estético no puede entenderse o apreciarse sin analizar sus funciones y significados, es decir, sin conocer la sociedad que construyó esas obras y las necesidades materiales, espirituales o simbólicas a cuya satisfacción estaban destinadas. Siete notables especialistas coordinados por George Michell estudian La arquitectura del mundo islámico en relación con las diversas áreas de la vida social y espiritual: las mezquitas, madrasas y mausoleos, al servicio de una compleja liturgia; los palacios, alcazabas y fortificaciones, expresión arquitectónica del poder; los mercados y caravansares, productos del mundo del comercio y los viajes, y la más humilde arquitectura vernácula, con sus numerosas variantes regionales, como forma de adaptación al medio físico y a la disponibilidad de materiales autóctonos.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nos encontramos ante un producto artístico plenamente oriental. El problema de que los árabes no fueran creadores de formas artísticas propias no resta mérito alguno a su labor. Las soluciones arquitectónicas por ellos adoptadas habían sido empleadas por persas y bizantinos desde muchos siglos atrás, pero lo cierto es que sólo los árabes lograron hacer de este arte un arte universal.

Book excerpt: El sentido de la unidad, del arquitecto Nader Ardalan y de la experta en mundo islámico y sufismo Laleh Bakhtiar, es el primer estudio sobre la arquitectura del Islam en el contexto persa. A lo largo de la historia musulmana, Persia ha sido uno de los centros capitales del arte y su arquitectura una de las más ricas. Tomando el principio por excelencia medular del legado islámico, la unidad (tawhîd), e intentando comprender cómo la arquitectura de este periodo ha integrado todos sus elementos para conducir a dicha unidad, los autores han llevado a cabo una importante y pionera contribución al estudio del arte y arquitectura tradicionales.Mediante el análisis de estos y otros elementos arquitectónicos tradicionales se penetra en el significado interno de la arquitectura islámica en Persia, y con los capítulos dedicados al espacio, la forma, la superficie, el color o la materia se nos irán desvelando las características propias de la arquitectura persa musulmana.

Download or read book Islamic Palace Architecture in the Western Mediterranean written by Felix Arnold and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017-02-14 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Palaces like the Aljafería and the Alhambra rank among the highest achievements of the Islamic world. In recent years archaeological work at Córdoba, Kairouan and many other sites has vastly increased our knowledge about the origin and development of Islamic palatial architecture, particularly in the Western Mediterranean region. This book offers a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of Islamic palace architecture in Spain, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia and southern Italy. The author, who has himself conducted archaeological field work at several prominent sites, presents all Islamic palaces known in the region in ground plans, sections and individual descriptions. The book traces the evolution of Islamic palace architecture in the region from the 8th to the 19th century and places them within the context of the history of Islamic culture. Palace architecture is a unique source of cultural history, offering insights into the way space was conceived and the way rulers used architecture to legitimize their power. The book discusses such topics as the influence of the architecture of the Middle East on the Islamic palaces of the western Mediterranean region, the role of Greek logic and scientific progress on the design of palaces, the impact of Islamic palaces on Norman and Gothic architecture and the role of Sufism on the palatial architecture of the late medieval period.

Download or read book Handbook of Research on Visual Computing and Emerging Geometrical Design Tools written by Amoruso, Giuseppe and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2016-04-11 with total page 924 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Visual computing and descriptive geometry are multidisciplinary fields addressing the handling of images, 3D models, and other computer graphics. These ideas are experiencing a revival due to emergent technologies and applications available to developers. Based in traditional forms of design and architecture, these fields are currently experiencing a bounty of new research based on old principles. The Handbook of Research on Visual Computing and Emerging Geometrical Design Tools seeks to add to this knowledge base by considering these technologies from a designer’s perspective rather than reiterating the principles of computer science. It combines aspects of geometry and representation with emerging tools for CAD, generation, and visualization while addressing the digital heritage of such fields. This book is an invaluable resource for developers, students of both graphic and computer-generated design, researchers, and designers.
