Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Danish Architecture and Society offers a fascinating architectural history of the institutions and public buildings that have helped shape the everyday lives of Danes since the eighteenth century. The book charts the emergence and development as well as the grandeur and ultimate demise of these institutions, tracing the underlying--and changing--architectural and societal ideals that have been influential in terms of design, organization, and furnishing. The individual contributions detail the often dramatic historical developments of buildings from industrialism's heyday, such as train stations, post offices and customs houses. Although some of these still exist, a great many have today either been adapted to other functions or demolished. The contributing authors examine the significance of the buildings at the time they were constructed and attending understandings of sustainable building, contrasting these with present-day notions of architecture and construction as a more makeshift phenomenon. Through more than two hundred illustrations--drawings, sketches, plans and photos, much of it never before published--the authors provide a vivid and compelling account of Danish architectural history and its influence in framing the Danish welfare state as we know it today.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An architectural investigation of the Danish "good life" How have spatial changes affected the welfare experiences of citizens? What happens when long-standing institutions are restructured, dismantled or displaced elsewhere? How do emerging types of welfare space inform--or become informed by--shifting conceptions of the role the welfare system plays in our everyday lives? This volume seeks to address these pressing questions and more. Using Denmark as a case study, the book traces spatial transformations in the country's welfare system, from the end of the so-called golden age of the welfare state in the early 1970s to today. Architectures of Dismantling and Restructuringadopts a clear-eyed, nuanced perspective toward welfare and the "good life," investigating the consequences of Denmark's neoliberal turn and other significant sociopolitical changes. A rich analytical sequence of drawn visualizations supplements the book's textual and photographic descriptions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Denmark s many manors are a treasure trove of natural and cultural riches. In addition to the scenic beauty and magnificent architecture they have to offer, they also stand as monuments to more than five centuries of Danish history. The landscapes and buildings of Denmark s manors offer an enchanting foray into a fascinating universe, animating the country s cultural heritage. Denmark s famous fairytale author Hans Christian Andersen and the internationally renowned storyteller Isak Dinesen were both fascinated by the unique atmosphere of the Danish country house, which as their fairytales and stories reveal was a lasting source of inspiration in their writings. Also today, the cultural and natural environment of the manor continues to appeal to the heart and soul, opening the eyes of the readers to the multifaceted splendours. This beautifully designed book provides the reader with the key to understanding and experiencing this cultural heritage. More than one hundred of Denmark s seven hundred manors are now partially or wholly open to the public. This book is your guide to them all. Two hundred beautiful photographs, many of them by the acclaimed photographer Roberto Fortuna, accompany the texts on the manors. The work is prefaced by H.R.H. the Prince Consort of Denmark and also includes a chapter on the Danish nobility by the Historian Ditlev Tamm. "

Download or read book Cities for People written by Jan Gehl and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2013-03-05 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than forty years Jan Gehl has helped to transform urban environments around the world based on his research into the ways people actually use—or could use—the spaces where they live and work. In this revolutionary book, Gehl presents his latest work creating (or recreating) cityscapes on a human scale. He clearly explains the methods and tools he uses to reconfigure unworkable cityscapes into the landscapes he believes they should be: cities for people. Taking into account changing demographics and changing lifestyles, Gehl emphasizes four human issues that he sees as essential to successful city planning. He explains how to develop cities that are Lively, Safe, Sustainable, and Healthy. Focusing on these issues leads Gehl to think of even the largest city on a very small scale. For Gehl, the urban landscape must be considered through the five human senses and experienced at the speed of walking rather than at the speed of riding in a car or bus or train. This small-scale view, he argues, is too frequently neglected in contemporary projects. In a final chapter, Gehl makes a plea for city planning on a human scale in the fast- growing cities of developing countries. A “Toolbox,” presenting key principles, overviews of methods, and keyword lists, concludes the book. The book is extensively illustrated with over 700 photos and drawings of examples from Gehl’s work around the globe.
