Abstract

Whether for a few minutes, a weekend, or a long vacation, today’s spaces for recreation are available in a variety of forms and activities, and pursue a wide diversity of basic methodological ideas. Rather than being focused on productivity and efficiency, they allow one to unwind, contemplate, unravel, and experience.The 30 projects featured in this volume help create harmony and kindle a sense of recovery through their structural and material impact. The diverse scales and typologies they represent draw upon traditional constructions as well as modern spatial realities, wherein the design forms a framework for relaxation while enabling the mind to escape and reinvigorate.

Abstract

Culture forms and creates identity from large communities down to a single individual. In the most delicate features of every facade, every person and the design of every spatial concept lies a manifestation of culture shaped by a feeling of community, by history and by an intellectual demand.With the embodiment of a cultural spirit arises a desire for artistic expression, which can be shown in a written, figurative, physical and auditory form. Architects thus install a threshold between the artists and their environment translating their thoughts into spatial atmospheres.This volume displays museums, event spaces and libraries as voices and as settings for culture, as well as places that above all unite, encourage encounters, initiate discussions and inspire intercultural exchange.
