Abstract

"While most recent writing on architecture theory has been concerned with the 'what' - what has been said and written, this book is concerned with the 'how' - how architecture theory has been created. Architecture Thinking Across Boundaries looks at architectural theory through the lens of intellectual history. 12 original essays explore a variety of themes, each examining how architectural knowledge has been transferred across social, spatial, and paradigmatic boundaries - whether through international circulation of ideas; exchanges with other disciplines; or transfers from design practice to theory and back again - and in each case examining the resulting transformations and resistances. Taken together, the essays in this book reflect upon the myriad routes that architectural knowledge has taken while developing into architectural theory, and the material and intellectual expressions it acquired in the process. It offers a new perspective on the processes by which architectural theory is produced, disseminated and tested, and suggests many ideas for future exploration"--

Abstract

Over recent decades, many museums, galleries and historic sites around the world have enjoyed an unprecedented level of large-scale investment in their capital infrastructure, in building refurbishments and new gallery displays. This period has also seen the creation of countless new purpose-built museums and galleries, suggesting a fundamental re-evaluation of the processes of designing and shaping of museums.Museum Making: Narratives, Architectures, Exhibitions examines this re-making by exploring the inherently spatial character of narrative in the museum and its potentia

Abstract

"This book examines the creative exchanges between architects, artists and intellectuals, from the Early Renaissance to the beginning of the Enlightenment, in the forging of relationships between architecture and emerging concepts of language in early modern in Italy. The study extends across the spectrum of linguistic disputes during this time - among members of the clergy, humanists, philosophers and polymaths - on issues of grammar, rhetoric, philology, etymology and epigraphy, and how these disputes paralleled and informed important developments in architectural thinking and practice. Drawing upon a wealth of primary source material, such as humanist tracts, philosophical works, architectural/antiquarian treatises, epigraphic/philological studies, religious sermons and grammaticae, the book traces key periods when the emerging field of linguistics in early modern Italy impacted on the theory, design and symbolism of buildings"--

Abstract

"This book argues narrative, people and place are inseparable and pursues the consequences of this insight through the design of narrative environments. This a new and distinct area of practice that weaves together and extends narrative theory, spatial theory and design theory. Examples of narrative spaces, such as exhibitions, brand experiences, urban design and socially-engaged participatory interventions in the public realm, are explored to show how space acts as a medium of communication through a synthesis of materials, structures and technologies; and how particular social behaviours are reproduced or critiqued through spatial narratives. This book will be of interest to scholars in design studies, urban studies, architecture, new materialism and design practitioners in the creative industries"--
