This book was released on 2000 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La teoría de la arquitectura en la actualidad, lejos de constituir un conjunto uniforme y coherente, se constituye por un conglomerado de aspectos dispersos que forman un mosaico entrelazado. El espacio, la memoria, el uso, la técnica, la luz, la percepción..., son algunos de los campos de interés que constituyen el rizoma caótico sobre el que se asienta el pensamiento arquitectónico. La Composición arquitectónica, entendida como el conjunto de disciplinas que configuran el substraigo teórico sobre el que se asienta la práctica de la arquitectura, se va organizando a partir de estas piezas, en cierta medida autónomas, asentando de este modo el saber de la arquitectura.
Download or read book Radical Functionalism written by Luis E. Carranza and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-12-27 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Radical Functionalism: A Social Architecture for Mexico provides a complex and nuanced understanding of the functionalist architecture developed in Mexico during the 1930s. It carefully re-reads the central texts and projects of its main advocates to show how their theories responded to the socially and culturally charged Mexican context. These, such as architects Juan Legarreta, Juan O’Gorman, the Union of Socialist Architects, and Manuel Amábilis, were part of broader explorations to develop a modern, national architecture intended to address the needs of the Mexican working classes. Through their refunctioning of functionalism, these radical thinkers showed how architecture could stand at the precipice of Mexico's impending modernization and respond to its impending changes. The book examines their engagement and negotiation with foreign influences, issues of gender and class, and the separation between art and architecture. Functionalist practices are presented as contradictory and experimental, as challenging the role of architecture in the transformation of society, and as intimately linked to art and local culture in the development of new forms of architecture for Mexico, including the "vernacularization" of functionalism itself. Uniquely including translations of two manifesto-like texts by O’Gorman expressing the polemical nature of their investigations, Radical Functionalism: A Social Architecture for Mexico will be a useful reference for scholars, researchers and students interested in the history of architectural movements.

Book excerpt: Esta obra nos propone abordar los asuntos de la arquitectura en relación a las cuestiones de la técnica, con un contenido pedagógico que ilustre de la mejor manera, un tema que es caro a los arquitectos, pero no suficientemente conocido. Sin duda la trilogía técnica, tecnología y tectónica son inimaginables por fuera de la arquitectura, si bien la primera compete por su carácter genérico y omnipresente desde el nacimiento del hombre, la tecnología o lógica de la técnica ya es propiedad de los saberes particulares y más aún los especializados, con sus rutinas y automatismos propios de la era moderna, lo que para muchos ocluye el acceso a la creatividad restando posibilidades a la arquitectura, finalmente la tectónica es lo más propio y específico de la arquitectura, desde sus raíces lingüísticas hasta su peso, marcando a la arquitectura por su materialidad y la manera en que ésta nos provoca sensaciones que la percepción decodifica según los imaginarios dominantes de materiales nobles e innobles, cálidos y fríos, etc. Son muchos los abordajes o cortes que se pueden hacer al problema de la técnica y de allí su complejidad y a la vez riqueza del término o concepto en todos los tiempos de la historia. Esto comprometió a estudiar el tema con mayor esmero y es de esperar que este libro brinde las respuestas deseadas, pero por sobre todo despierte preguntas inesperadas para continuar la conversación aquí iniciada.
Download or read book La arquitectura como ciencia written by Ramón Araujo and published by Reverte. This book was released on 2019-10-08 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este libro es una defensa del espíritu clásico, entendido éste como la búsqueda de las soluciones más perfectas e íntegras. Su objetivo es razonar cuáles son los fines de la arquitectura, qué conocimientos la constituyen, qué criterios la rigen, cuáles serían las mejores soluciones para los diferentes tipos edificatorios actuales y, en última instancia, para el objeto fundamental del esfuerzo de los arquitectos, que es la ciudad. El primer paso para devolver a la arquitectura su dignidad lo tendremos que dar los arquitectos: hemos de hacer valer nuestros conocimientos, la propia disciplina; debemos replantearnos los objetivos de nuestra actividad y el propio cuerpo de lo que fue y es nuestra profesión; tenemos que reorganizar nuestras escuelas, en las que se ha perdido la visión integradora y generalista que es consustancial a nuestro oficio y donde la enseñanza se centra ahora en mixtificaciones que rozan la superstición; hemos de reconsiderar el propio proceso del proyecto y la construcción. La idea esencial es considerar que el proceso de proyecto es absolutamente racional o incluso científico; que la arquitectura de cada tiempo, sus reglas generales y las soluciones a los diferentes tipos se establecen de acuerdo con un proceso riguroso, en busca de la solución mejor, la óptima; y que sólo entonces resultan unas obras que son útiles y bellas. La arquitectura es una cuestión de conocimientos, de raciocinio, mucho más que de inventiva, y el culto a la creación sin ataduras está en el origen de tantos edificios absurdos que hoy se proponen y de mucha frustración entre los estudiantes.

Download or read book Artifacts of Revolution written by Patrice Elizabeth Olsen and published by Rowman & Littlefield Publishers. This book was released on 2008-09-11 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This innovative history argues that we can understand important facets of the Mexican Revolution by analyzing the architecture designed and built in Mexico City during the formative years from 1920 to 1940. These artifacts allow us to trace and understand the path of the consolidation of the Mexican Revolution. Each individual building or development, by providing indelible evidence of the process by which the revolution evolved into a government, offers important insights into Mexican history. Seen in aggregate, they reveal an ongoing urban process at work; seen as a "composition," they reveal changes over time in societal values and aspirations and in the direction of the revolution. This book focuses on structure, change, and process for this remarkable city "in the true image of the gigantic heaven." The changes described in Fuentes' narrative are man-made, not wrought by impersonal or natural forces except on the rare occasions of earthquake and flood. Patrice Elizabeth Olsen views Mexico City as an artifact of those who created it—representing their ardor, humanity, and religion, as well as their politics. Individual chapters detail the expression of revolutionary values and aims in the physical form of Mexico City's built environment between 1920 and 1940, examining direction and meaning in terms of who is given license to design and build structures in the capital city, and equally important, who is excluded. Through the reshaping of the capital the revolution was extended and institutionalized; physical traces of the process of negotiation that enabled the revolution to be "fixed" in the Mexican polity appear in the city's skyline, parks, housing developments, and other new construction, as well as in modifications to existing colonial-era buildings. In this manner, the author argues, Mexico City's urban form crystallized as a product of the revolution as well as a part of the revolutionary process, as it has been of other conquests throughout its history.

Download or read book Architectural Models written by Wolfgang Knoll and published by J. Ross Publishing. This book was released on 2007-12-15 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Architects' models serve as bridge between an idea and its realization. Models are one of the three means by which an architect invents and develops his design: sketch–model–computer model. No other representational form is as effective in enabling the viewer to perceive the spaces, shapes, surfaces and textures created by the architect's design — it is therefore a prerequisite in the design process. Architectural Models provides clear and comprehensible instruction explaining how design ideas can be skillfully translated into models. Some 200 black and white illustrations and, new to this edition, more than 40 extraordinary, full color photographs, provide a comprehensive visual explication of the text. In this completely revised edition, the authors convey practical basics and offer a wealth of innovative and valuable suggestions for students of architecture or graphic arts, as well as for experienced architectural model makers.

Book excerpt: Whether Llinas is operating on a "leftover" lot in the city or building in the open landscape, he strives to make sense of the site: creating a public space to conclude an urban axis in one location; deploying the volumes of his new construction to reconcile the disparate scales of neighboring buildings in another; using an inventive corner treatment to enliven a bleak street in a third.
