How to manage storage or how to adapt rooms for use at various times of the day are opportunities to become inventive with space. The book provides both inspiration and tips on anything from hidden-away storage compartments, ingenious bike mounts, and convertible rooms to other clever gadgets.

En el contexto del centenario de la Villa Savoye (1928-1930), uno de los grandes iconos de la modernidad, esta investigación original pretende completar las de otros autores que han analizado suficientemente, tanto el proceso de proyecto, como el desarrollo de las obras. La novedad que ahora se ofrece en abierto, es una restitucion a 1:20 del estado as built de la casa, tal como estaba cuando se termino en 1930. Esto se realiza en el marco de: 1) un estudio comparativo de la planimetria anterior a las primeras intervenciones, 2) el analisis de las fotografias coetaneas a la obra, 3) un modelo tridimensional de estructura-cerramiento, y 4) la definicion formal de sistemas constructivos e instalaciones. Todo ello se aborda desde un prisma proyectual, aunq ...

Architects are adapting existing buildings to create new spaces for a more conscious future. The urban fabric changes more slowly than our spatial needs, accelerated by digital technologies and new lifestyles. The trick for canny architects lies in an ingenious reuse and creative recycling that result in the stunning transformation of existing buildings for new purposes. Building for Change explores this architecture of reuse and adaptation. It presents sofa factories turned coworking hub, viaducts turned community garden, department stores turned cultural center, and other inspiring projects. The book also showcases spaces that are designed to be dismantled and repurposed down the line. This architecture of care is aspirational and ambitious: to make construction more sustainable and buildings fit for the future.

Glamour scholarship and superlative storytelling an enthralling read LUCY WORSLEY Adrian Tinniswood opens the doors on the excess intrigue and absurdities of life in the late Victorian and Edwardian country house In the decades before the First World War the owners of the nation s stately homes revelled in a golden age of glory and glamour Nothing lay beyond their reach in a world where privilege and hedonism went hand in hand with duty and honour This was a time when the ancestral seats of ancient nobility stood side by side with the fabulous palaces of Jewish bankers and Indian princes when dukes and duchesses mixed with aristocratic society hostesses who had learned to dance in the chorus line and self made millionaires who had been raised in the slums of Manchester and Birmingham The Power and the Glory explores the country house during this golden age when Britain ruled over a quarter of the world s population when its stately homes were at their most opulent and when for the privileged few life in the country house was the best life of all A wonderful book JUDITH FLANDERS Scintillating and brilliant from a master of the subject GARETH RUSSELL

A thrilling celebration of lighthouses i newspaper An enthralling history of Britain s rock lighthouses and the people who built and inhabited them Lighthouses are enduring monuments to our relationship with the sea They encapsulate a romantic vision of solitary homes amongst the waves but their original purpose was much more noble conceived as navigational gifts for the safety of all Still today we depend upon their guiding lights for the safe passage of ships Nowhere is this truer than in the rock lighthouses of Great Britain and Ireland twenty towers built between 1811 and 1904 so called because they were constructed on desolate slippery rock formations in the middle of the sea rising mirage like straight out of the waves with lights shining at the their summits Seashaken Houses is a lyrical exploration of these magnificent isolated sentinels the ingenuity of those who conceived them the people who risked their lives building and rebuilding them those that inhabited their circular rooms and the ways in which we value emblems of our history in a changing world

Autonomous manufacturing and cyber physical systems are key enabling technologies of the Fourth Industrial Revolution IR4 which are currently being incorporated into the building design and construction industries These emerging IR4 technologies have the potential to effectively improve construction affordability and productivity address current and future building demand and reduce the environmental impact of the built environment However design approaches that make use of IR4 technologies are still relatively unexplored While automation such as mass production promotes standardised design solutions design thinking that embraces varying degrees of autonomy can lead to unique and considered approaches to design on an industrial scale Behavioural Production Semi Autonomous Approaches to Architectural Design Robotic Fabrication and Collective Robotic Construction explores design operating through the orchestration of spatiotemporal events A multi agent behaviour based approach to computation is employed in architectural design and extended to individual and swarm based robotic methods for additive manufacturing Behavioural Production seeks to expand our capacity to engage with the world at large through varying degrees of autonomy In an industrialised wo

The official book marking the centenary of the Rietveld Schroder House tells the story of two lovers and radical innovators in modern architecture: Truus Schroder and Gerrit Rietveld ""The idea of living in the house like this essentially came from me."" Truus Schroder Rietveld Schroder House: A Biography of the House tells the story of the iconic house and its creators, Truus Schroder (18891985) and Gerrit Rietveld (18881964). The construction of the house, the designs by Schroder & Rietveld Architects, the war years, the renovations and the many family parties: this richly illustrated publication builds up a picture of the colourful life of the idiosyncratic Rietveld Schroder House. In addition to many previously unpublished photographs, drawings, designs and letters, the book provides in-depth insight into Rietveld and Schroders collaboration and their shared ambition to radically change traditional (interior) architecture. The research by authors Natalie Dubois and Jessica van Geel also convincingly shows that Truus Schroders role was far greater than previously assumed. As a gifted designer, Schroder was much more than Gerrit Rietveld''s muse. Her creative vision proved crucial to their joint projects. With its bespoke design by Irma Boom, this publication is a tribute to the world-famous house built in 1924 that continues to inspire today. Rietveld Schroder House: A Biography of the House is an accessible and essential reference work for lovers of modern architecture, art history and revolutionary daring. This publication coincides with the centenary of the Rietveld Schroder House, and is issued in collaboration with Centraal Museum Utrecht."
