Abstract

As innovation and new developments in technology now follow each other faster and faster, making yesterday's architectural fantasies today's construction realities, there's already a movement to return to the essential things in life: be it a quest for sustainability, which implies basic principles such as incorporating a region's typologies and materials, or for reasons of expense, which often prompt a search for efficient designs or manufacturing technology, or even aesthetic requirements that allow people to step out of our increasingly noisy and heterogeneous environment. However, achieving simplicity in design belies the enormous amount of effort required to plan and realise these types of architectural designs. That’s why the publication Building Simply Two – just as volume one – aims to look behind the facade. Well-known authors who are experts in their fields investigate the particular solutions used in a construction project in terms of design and construction, including material selection, cost efficiency and sustainability.

Abstract

Born out of the drawingbuilding.org online archive, Architectural Inventions presents a stunning visual study of impossible or speculative structures that exist only on paper. Soliciting the work of architects, designers, and artists of renown-as well as emerging talents from all over the world-Maximilian Goldfarb and Matt Bua have gathered an array of works that convey architectural alternatives, through products, expansions, or critiques of our inhabited environments.From abstract and conceptual visual interpretations of structures to more traditional architectural renderings, the featured w

Abstract

L'idée de "Total Architecture" , tel que décrit par Ove Arup dans sa vision du design, continue à servir de maxime pour la firme d'ingénierie opérant au niveau mondial ARUP et son Département de génie du bâtiment. S'appuyant sur des projets sélectionnés à partir de ces dernières années, ce deuxième volume de la nouvelle série de l'ingénierie de détail montre comment le génie civil durable peut être combiné avec cet idéal d' un processus de conception holistique - toujours dans le but de réaliser l'unité parfaite de la force et de l'élégance dans chaque structure. L'accent est mis sur les différents processus qui ont accompagné les projets de construction présentées. Les connexions sont indiquées entre les bâtiments individuels dont les synergies sont poursuivis de manière exemplaire. Les projets de construction remarquables révèle ce qui continue à conduire et inspirer les ingénieurs à ARUP à ce jour : une passion pour le travail de pionnier.
