Download or read book Our House Style written by AA.VV. and published by EDUCatt - Ente per il diritto allo studio universitario dell'Università Cattolica. This book was released on 2015-05-08 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Firstly, I would like to extend my thanks to all those who have made this meeting possible. Specifically, I would like to mention Professor Cesare Kaneklin who, several years ago, first came up with this idea of a common, shared reflection on the quality of learning. I must also underline the contribution of my colleague, Michele Faldi, who coordinated all those involved in the process – teaching staff, tutors and outside bodies – and who helped me develop and implement this idea. Finally, recognition goes to all those individuals, both inside and outside the University who, with great dedication, have put their professional skills and experience at the service of this project. The path we have chosen is an innovative one; our research focuses on how the functions of a tutor may be fulfilled with an area characterized by the dearth of accepted norms, that of the “Specializing University Master”. There are many different types of Master. Each is related to a particular market and has its own specific teaching needs and organizational characteristics. Over the years, our University has met, and continues to meet, a considerable number of students through these Masters. What does the Università Cattolica transmit through these Masters? What methods and tools does it use to communicate? This has been the focus of our research, and is what we have attempted to present here. What emerges is that the University possesses what we might call a certain “House Style”, – a feature which, over time, has become a sort of claim. Specializing Masters are titles conferred by the University and have, therefore, their own type of organizational framework of learning paths. At a certain point, and within this framework, a new function, that of the tutor, came to light, which gradually took shape and grew in importance. It is seen as a function, rather than a profession, as it implies a much more interactive channel of communication than we might imagine. These new connections between the student and the organizational framework of the Master represent an interesting and worthwhile research area. It is satisfying to see the development of an idea which forms an integral part of our University, an aspect which our postgraduate students will have learnt, almost by osmosis.

Imagine a house's early days as a home: A young family builds a picket fence and plants flowers in its yard, children climb the magnolia tree and play the piano in the living room, and there is music inside the house for many happy years.

The house dreams of a family who will love it again...and one day, a new story will emerge from within its walls. In this modern classic, Erin Napier’s lyrical prose and Adam Trest’s warm and comforting paintings deeply evoke the soul of a house cherishing the seasons of life and discovering the joy of rebirth.

This book was released on 2018-07-24 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “An engaging historical account and an attractive, practical resource.” —Booklist Colonial, Neoclassical, Queen Anne, Craftsman—what distinguishes one architectural style from another? This unique book will allow readers to recognize the architectural features and style of virtually any house they encounter. Here, architect John Milnes Baker explains the historical, cultural, and technical influences that shaped each of these styles and many more. Organized in periods, from Early Colonial (1600–1715) to the Modern Movement (1920–60) and beyond, this tour of America’s varied residential architecture is rendered in elevation drawings that precisely illustrate the key characteristics of each style. Nearly 25 years since the original publication of American House Styles, this updated edition includes a new preface and house styles from the mid-1990s to the present—from the rise and fall of the McMansion to energy-efficient, regionally influenced homes.

Download or read book Get Your House Right written by Marianne Cusato and published by Sterling Publishing Company. This book was released on 2007 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even as oversized McMansions continue to elbow their way into tiny lots nationwide, a much different trend has taken shape. This return to traditional architectural principles venerates qualities that once were taken for granted in home design: structural common sense, aesthetics of form, appropriateness to a neighborhood, and even sustainability. Marianne Cusato, creator of the award-winning Katrina Cottages, has authored and illustrated this definitive guide to what makes houses look and feel right--to the eye and to the soul. She teaches us the language and grammar of classical architecture, revealing how balance, harmony, and detail all contribute to creating a home that will be loved rather than tolerated. And she takes us through the do’s and don’ts of every element of home design, from dormers to doorways to columns. Integral to the book are its hundreds of elegant line drawings--clearly rendering the varieties of lintels and cornices, arches and eaves, and displaying "avoid” and "use” versions of the same elements side by side.

He discusses many concerns and offers practical advice. He also presents issues that need further consideration in every project."--BOOK JACKET.
