Abstract

"Learning a new discipline is similar to learning a new language; in order to master the foundation of architecture, you must first master the basic building blocks of its language - the definitions, function, and usage. Language of Architecture provides students and professional architects with the basic elements of architectural design, divided into twenty-six easy-to-comprehend chapters. This visual reference includes an introductory, historical view of the elements, as well as an overview of how these elements can and have been used across multiple design disciplines. Whether you're new to the field or have been an architect for years, you'll want to flip through the pages of this book throughout your career and use it as the go-to reference for inspiration, ideas, and reminders of how a strong knowledge of the basics allows for meaningful, memorable, and beautiful fashions that extend beyond trends. This comprehensive learning tool is the one book you'll want as a staple in your library. " [Publisher]

Abstract

The twentieth century was a remarkable period in architectural history. Rivaling the transformative achievements of ancient Greece, the gothic period or the Renaissance, the twentieth century galvanized radical developments in building technology, architectural theory, and space that paralleled global revolutions in politics, economics, and social values. Knowledge of the twentieth century's accomplishments is fundamentally critical for all students of architecture. More than 50 internationally renowned architects were asked to list the top 100 twentieth-century buildings they would teach to architecture students. The contributors were encouraged to select built projects where formal, spatial, technological, and organizational concepts responded to dynamic historical, cultural, social, and political circumstances. The capacity of these buildings to resist, adapt, and invent new typologies solidifies their timeless relevance to future challenges. The result is a master list of the top 100 "must-know" built workds of architecture designed and completed between 1900 and 2000.

Abstract

À la fois recueil d'idées et livre didactique, cet ouvrage s'adresse à tous les architectes, professionnels et étudiants, aux designers et plus largement à tous les passionnés d'architecture. Il présente les 26 concepts clés de l'architecture, leur nature, leur importance et leur place dans tout processus de conception. Analysés et commentés, près de 500 photos, plans ou détails d'architecture de créations remarquables illustrent ces principes fondamentaux, tandis que sont dressés les portraits de 17 grands architectes (de Le Corbusier à Zaha Hadid, en passant par Álvaro Siza, Rem Koolhaas ou encore Shigeru Ban) qui ont marqué l'histoire de l'architecture et contribué à son évolution.
