Comprehensive Tectonics considers building construction assemblies holistically to help you make architectural detailing decisions from the earth to the sky. Seven case studies from architecture firms such as Perkins + Will, Lake Flato, and Olson Kundig Architects include more than 250 color images showing component details, building sections, wall sections, and floor plans. For each project, the architects explain their design intent and the reasons for their material and tectonic choices, to help you form your own strategies. This book will provide you with assistance by its ease of use with legible keys, scales, and reference images. Its key insights about why the firm chose certain materials will allow you to create your own process for utilizing building construction assemblies. Comprehensive Tectonics aims to give you a more comprehensive overview of building construction assembles to aid in the creation of well-designed and well-developed architecture. Including a glossary and guide for how to determine assembly, this book makes a welcome desk reference and is an ideal addition for students in architecture integrated studios dealing with structures and materials and is also a useful addition for professional architects.

"This ambitious publication, now revised and expanded, dissects fifty-five modern masterpieces through specially commissioned freehand drawings that reveal the principles and details of what makes a building meaningful and enduring. Covering six continents, and ranging from a 1955 residence in India to a 2015 opera house in China, influential buildings of the past seven decades are analysed through detailed consideration of their key characteristics - site and surroundings, space and massing, programme and circulation, fenestration and use of natural light - to give an insight into how each design works as a cohesive whole. Appealing to architects, students and everyone who appreciates great buildings, The Elements of Modern Architecture is an essential reference and inspiration for generations to come." [Publisher]

Mystieke ervaring wordt dikwijls vereenzelvigd met extases, visioenen, overweldigende ervaringen, zeker als het Teresa van Ávila (1515-1582) betreft. Maar precies zij geeft een fijne analyse van haar eerste mystieke ervaring waaruit blijkt dat die zeker niet overrompelend is. Dat betekent dan ook: in principe is voor heel veel mensen de eerste mystieke ervaring weggelegd. Toch komen er niet zoveel mensen aan toe, meestal door onwetendheid en tekort aan begeleiding. Dit boekje wil aan die nood tegemoet komen. De auteur is zeer vertrouwd met de geschriften van Teresa en weet haar visie eenvoudig en helder te verwoorden.

This is a book about ten women over the past three hundred years who have found walking essential to their sense of themselves, as people and as writers. Wanderers traces their footsteps, from eighteenth-century parson's daughter Elizabeth Carter-who desired nothing more than to be taken for a vagabond in the wilds of southern England - to modern walker-writers such as Nan Sheperd and Cheryl Strayed. Offering a beguiling view of the history of walking, Wanderers guides us through the different ways of seeing - of being - articulated by these pathfinding women.

By introducing the category of movement, New Move takes a new look at current issues in architecture. Adaptive building components and elements allow more flexible uses of facilities and to extend their function, to conserve and gain energy, and to initiate, display, and control interaction with users. Applications range from interiors and solar shading to facade and roof designs. The extended understanding of movement also includes concepts in urban design and other disciplines. New Move systematically explores background information, concepts, and functions in a large number of contributions. More than 50 case studies illustrate the various types of movement, such as swiveling and turning, rotating, sliding, and folding using built examples in contemporary high-profile international architecture.
