Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - At the crossroads of architecture, aesthetics and engineering sciences, this book aims to shed light on the unthought-of return of utilitarian decorative arts in the fight against global warming, and to constitute an encyclopaedic catalogue of decorative elements with ancient typologies (carpets, tapestries, curtains, mirrors, etc. ) updated according to today's scientific knowledge: thermal effusivity, emissivity, conduction, reflectance, etc. Until the beginning of the 20th century, interior decoration in the West had a practical role: to fight the cold, to amplify the light or to block cold draughts. A carpet was used to prevent cold feet, a tapestry to thermally insulate the walls; the crystals in chandeliers, like mirrors or gilding, were there to amplify the weak, solitary light of candles andsmall windows; a folding screen served to block the wind, curtains to block draughts. The arrival of central heating, air conditioning and electric lighting at the turn of the 20th century made this primary utilitarian and climatic raison d'être of interior design obsolete - thanks to the massive use of fossil fuels. Old decorative devices were therefore discarded in favour of the clean, minimalist, empty white interiors characteristic of 20th century modernity - an aesthetic underpinned by the CO2 emissions of oil-fired boilers and coal-fired power stations. Today, with the need to reduce buildings' carbon footprints and fight against heat waves, new thermal and energy reduction requirements are appearing, including the call for 20cm of thermal insulation in walls. One may wonder if this thermal insulation is not in fact a new form of tapestry in all but name - one that would unconsciously mark a return to interior decoration. If the modern style of the 20th century stemmed from carbon energies, wasting without limit resources and energy to heat and light, the decarbonisation of the building is inducing, withoutus realising it, a new decorative style specific to the 21st century, where thermal performance, carbon footprint and ecology redefine the interior's formal and material choices, and finally their aesthetic, cultural,and social value. The challenge for interior architecture is to reactivate interior design's practical sense as it existed before the 20th century, going beyond its apparently futile character to invent new modes of laying out - new spatial, formal and material configurations, available to interior designers and architects: a decorative aesthetic specific to the 21st century, which we propose to call 'anthropocene style'.…

Zustand: New. Idioma/Language: Español. ¿Es posible que la necesidad de mantener nuestro cuerpo a 37 ºC sea la razón del nacimiento de la arquitectura? En esta brillante historia de la arquitectura, Philippe Rahm analiza las causas naturales de la evolución arquitectónica, esto es, los factores físicos, biológicos y climáticos que, a lo largo de la historia, y en estrecha relación con los avances científicos y tecnológicos, han influido en su desarrollo y conformado sus fundamentos, desde la prehistoria hasta la actualidad. De la mano del arquitecto suizo, releer la evolución de la arquitectura y el urbanismo desde sus causas materiales nos permite no solo comprender de qué modo se han ido adaptando a las necesidades y acontecimientos de cada momento, también afrontar los retos medioambientales presentes y futuros. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

paperback. Zustand: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor.

Hardcover. Zustand: Sehr gut. 1. Auflage. Z : 17 X 24 cm, 191 Seiten/pages, 30 colour illustrations. - This anthology aims to exploit the psychological associations of space and the psychological reactions to it, such as agoraphobia, vertigo, and claustrophobia. The publication analyzes spatial emotion in contemporary art and architecture and maps its extremes and multiple overtones. With essays by Anthony Vidler on the relation between psychoanalysis and the perception of space, Mark Wigley on insecurity and design, Philippe Rahm on the emotional conditioning of space definition, and Stephen Willats on living conditions in social housing.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This book is about climate and architecture. Written by the Swiss architect Philippe Rahm, it is at the same time a monograph on the architectural, urbanistic and landscape work of the office 'Philippe Rahm architectes', a manifesto for a climatic architecture to face global warming, and a theoretical and practical treatise on the art of building atmospheres.Architecture and urbanism were traditionally based on climate and health, as we can read in treatises of Vitruvius, Palladio or Alberti, where exposure to wind and sun, variations in temperature and humidity influenced the forms of cities and buildings. These fundamental causes of urban planning and buildings were ignored in the second half of the 20th century thanks to the enormous use of fossil energy by heating and air conditioning systems, pumps and refrigerators, that today cause the greenhouse effect and global warming. The fight against climate change forces the architects and urban designer to take back seriously the climatic issue in order to base their design on more consideration to the local climatic context and energy resources. Faced with the climatic challenge of the 21st century, we propose to reset our discipline on its intrinsic atmospheric qualities, where air, light, heat or humidity are recognized are real materials of building, convection, thermal conduction, evaporation, emissivity, or effusivity are becoming design tools for composing architecture and cities, and through materialism dialectic, are able to revolutionize esthetic and social values.…
