Download or read book Deciding about Design Quality written by Leentje Volker and published by Sidestone Press. This book was released on 2010 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past few years the image of tender procedures in which Dutch public clients selected an architect has been dominated by distressing newspaper headlines. Architects fear that the current tender culture will harm the quality of our built environment due to a potential lack of diversity, creativity and innovation in architectural design. Due to potential risks clients often allow legal requirements to overrule their actual wishes. This PhD research addresses the origin of the problems as currently experienced by public commissioning clients in architect selection and proposes pragmatic implications for future practice. It is therefore of interest for commissioning clients, management consultants, policy makers and legal advisors but also for designers and researchers in the field of architecture and decision making.

Download or read book The Image of the City written by Kevin Lynch and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 1964-06-15 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The classic work on the evaluation of city form. What does the city's form actually mean to the people who live there? What can the city planner do to make the city's image more vivid and memorable to the city dweller? To answer these questions, Mr. Lynch, supported by studies of Los Angeles, Boston, and Jersey City, formulates a new criterion—imageability—and shows its potential value as a guide for the building and rebuilding of cities. The wide scope of this study leads to an original and vital method for the evaluation of city form. The architect, the planner, and certainly the city dweller will all want to read this book.

Book excerpt: Whether in the public or private sector, apartment buildings are a relatively modern answer to the problem of housing, a topic that is intimately linked to the complex evolution of the customs and constructive experiences of richer countries. Since the beginning of the century there has been a heated debate on this topic in an effort to specify and understand the most appropriate scenario for life and the new forms of coexistence. Among the architectures that have been built since then, the apartment constitutes the most difficult habitation unit, an enclosure that may become a bare and sombre capsule, in which a rigid compartmentation often makes the adaptation to each user's specific necessities and the personal behaviours of coexistence very difficult. This book makes a full analysis of this debate through the study of a series of apartment buildings by architects of international fame, with rigorous proposals that combine a careful use of brickwork, warm wooden wrappings and severe glass skins on the outside. Under the diversity of the projects that we present, one can detect a common effort to design interiors that combines a rational approach with the search for good illumination and an intimate, comfortable and well-ventilated atmosphere.
