Book University Planning and Architecture

Download or read book University Planning and Architecture written by Jonathan Coulson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-01-09 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The environment of a university – what we term a campus – is a place with special resonance. They have long been the setting for some of history’s most exciting experiments in the design of the built environment. Christopher Wren at Cambridge, Le Corbusier at Harvard, and Norman Foster at the Free University Berlin: the calibre of practitioners who have shaped the physical realm of academia is superlative. Pioneering architecture and innovative planning make for vivid assertions of academic excellence, while the physical estate of a university can shape the learning experiences and lasting outlook of its community of students, faculty and staff. However, the mounting list of pressures – economic, social, pedagogical, technological – currently facing higher education institutions is rendering it increasingly challenging to perpetuate the rich legacy of campus design. In this strained context, it is more important than ever that effective use is made of these environments and that future development is guided in a manner that will answer to posterity. This book is the definitive compendium of the prestigious sphere of campus design, envisaged as a tool to help institutional leaders and designers to engage their campus’s full potential by revealing the narratives of the world’s most successful, time-honoured and memorable university estates. It charts the worldwide evolution of university design from the Middle Ages to the present day, uncovering the key episodes and themes that have conditioned the field, and through a series of case studies profiles universally-acclaimed campuses that, through their planning, architecture and landscaping, have made original, influential and striking contributions to the field. By understanding this history, present and future generations can distil important lessons for the future. The second edition includes revised text, many new images, and new case studies of the Central University of Venezuela and Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad.

Book The Architectural History of the University of Cambridge and of the Colleges of Cambridge and Eton Volume 4 The Architectural Drawings

Download or read book The Architectural History of the University of Cambridge and of the Colleges of Cambridge and Eton Volume 4 The Architectural Drawings written by Robert Willis and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2009-09-17 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robert Willis' monumental architectural history of the University of Cambridge, first published in 1886 in a revised and extended edition by his nephew J. W. Clark, was hailed as 'one of the most important contributions to the social and intellectual history of England which has ever been made by a Cambridge man.' These fully illustrated volumes are here reprinted in their entirety, with a modern introduction by Professor David Watkin. Although Willis and Clark has always been recognised by those interested generally in the conservation of buildings and in the historic development of architectural style and taste, its unique collection of over three hundred plans, antique and specially commissioned engravings is alone sufficient to make this an indispensable work of reference on Cambridge architecture before the onset of the modern age.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Architectural History of the University of Cambridge, and of the Colleges of Cambridge and Eton, Vol. 1 It would, however, be a mistake to suppose that he was then approaching the subject for the first time. When collecting materials for his Are/zz'leetzzm/ Nomen claim/e of Me Middle Ages, published by the Cambridge Antiquarian Society in 1844, he found that the changes in detail and in general treatment Observed in the colle giate structures could not be satisfactorily explained without an inquiry into the various dates at which those structures had been originally built, or additions made to them. This inquiry he then determined to undertake. The lecture, therefore, was only one stage in the develop ment of an original idea.
