Download or read book Architectural Resistance written by Peter Noever and published by Hatje Cantz. This book was released on 2003 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Twenty architects explored possible developments for the lot neighboring the Schindler House, a revolutionary architectural landmark located in West Hollywood, California. Their visionary ideas are combined in this book to uniquely demonstrate contemporary avant-garde architecture in an unusual line-up. Responding to the challenge that 'It is the architect's duty to offer resistance', [this book] explores the field of tension surrounding architecture, urbanism, and preservation today. It poses the following questions: Is a landmark such as the Schindler House singular, or is it tied to a complex network of relations and urban situations? Is context important to a landmark's intrinsic meaning? How do we measure the social significance of unparalleled historic works of architecture? To what degree do landmarks rely on their surrounding conditions?"--Back cover.

Download or read book A Studio Guide to Interior Design written by Elys John and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-08-31 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Studio Guide to Interior Design leads you through the creative process of developing an interior design proposal. From reading existing buildings, to presenting the final design, each stage is illustrated with analytical diagrams demonstrating clearly the workflow, processes and skills needed at each stage of the design process. Throughout the book there are key references to drawing, digital practice, author illustrated diagrams and design precedents. The book shows how to effectively read existing architecture and interiors and sets out orthographic drawing principles, to be used as an integral part of conceptual design development. It also looks at the integration of technology within the design process. The book has a complementary focus towards hand drawing and digital practice and uses a case study driven, diagrammatic approach so students can readily apply programmatic concepts to their own project context. Ideally suited to students at the beginning of their course, the book covers everything students need to get to grips with early on in their studies and features a wealth of pedagogical features.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Das amerikanische Architekturbüro Sparano + Mooney Architecture aus Salt Lake City, Utah, und Los Angeles, Kalifornien, steht für nachhaltige und innovative Bauten, die sich harmonisch in spektakuläre Berglandschaften einbetten. Der Architekturkritiker Michael Webb stellt in diesem Band zehn Projekte anhand von Fotografien, Zeichnungen, Skizzen und Texten vor und macht so den Entstehungsprozess architektonischer Ideen sichtbar. Auf die überwältigende Natur reagieren die Architekt*innen in ihren Entwürfen mit zurückhaltenden Formen und der innovativen Detaillierung von Materialien. Die Modelle, Skizzen, konzeptionellen Konstruktionen und vollständig ausgeführten Bauwerke des Büros bieten eine durchdachte Perspektive auf den Prozess der Entwicklung einer Architektur, die von der Beziehung zwischen Konzept und Ort lebt. Begleitende Essays stellen die Bauwerke in Beziehung zu ihren regionalen Kontexten und zeigen darüber hinaus Analogien zur Land Art auf.
Download or read book Metal Nanoparticles in Microbiology written by Mahendra Rai and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-04-02 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following an introduction to biogenic metal nanoparticles, this book presents how they can be biosynthesized using bacteria, fungi and yeast, as well as their potential applications in biomedicine. It is shown that the synthesis of nanoparticles using microbes is eco-friendly and results in reproducible metal nanoparticles of well-defined sizes, shapes and structures. This biotechnological approach based on the process of biomineralization exploits the effectiveness and flexibility of biological systems. Chapters include practical protocols for microbial synthesis of nanoparticles and microbial screening methods for isolating a specific nanoparticle producer as well as reviews on process optimization, industrial scale production, biomolecule-nanoparticle interactions, magnetosomes, silver nanoparticles and their numerous applications in medicine, and the application of gold nanoparticles in developing sensitive biosensors.

Download or read book Architecture as Measure written by Neyran Turan and published by Actar. This book was released on 2020 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In light of the current political crisis around climate change, what can architecture possibly contribute towards a new planetary imaginary of our contemporary environment beyond environmentalism and technological determinism? Instead of conceptualizing the idea of the environment as purely natural and in need of protection, as solely a problem that needs to be managed, or merely as the Earth, which limits the scope with a scalar bias, can we speculate on architecture as a measure both to assess and to act upon the world? 'Architecture as Measure' is an elaboration on this question, and on the disciplinary and cultural potentials of such a provocation. It positions climate change as a cultural and political idea that requires a renewed architectural environmental imagination.0The book takes on this task by presenting a set of unconventional collisions between architecture and climate change, which all extrapolate broader concerns of the city, environment, and geography through the lens of specific architectural questions such as form, representation and materiality.
