Hardcover. Zustand: As New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: As New. 1st Edition. Contents: Foreword/Balkrishna V. Doshi. The crucible of modernism in India. Conversation with Shivdatt Sharma. Lasting lessons from legends-a testament/Shivdatt Sharma. 1. Department of architecture, Chandigarh. 2. Department of space. 3. Private practise. Chronology of selected works. Biography. Shivdatt Sharma (b. 1931) is one of the most prolific Indian modernist architects. Starting out as an architect in the Chandigarh Capital Project Team led by Le Corbusier and Pierre Jeanneret, Sharma subsequently became Chief Architect of the Indian Space Research Organization. He then went into private practice. Sharma's architecture is a distinct blend of the core principles of modernism, interpreted through the lens of contemporary Indian realities. Modernism was adopted as both symbol and instrument of nation building in Nehruvian India. Working alongside designers and artists, architects went to work building innumerable small townships, universities, public institutions, housing estates and infrastructural projects across the country. Progressive businesses also patronized modernism as full participants in the project of nation-building. The modernism in India series documents the extensive heritage of modernism and modern architecture in India. Bringing to light the work of a forgotten generation, this series documents work that is currently under threat by the forces of globalization. This well illustrated book documents Sharma's work from the early days, when it was a part of the experimental and innovative ethos of Chandigarh, to the present. He has designed for a range of public and private clients across the world. Along with a portfolio of selected works, this book includes critical essays, interviews and a chronology of projects.

Zustand: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Este libro ofrece un excepcional recorrido cronológico por más de 500 obras paradigmáticas de la historia universal de la arquitectura. Lejos de centrarse en países y regiones específicos, el manual se organiza en estricto orden cronológico para que todas las culturas y civilizaciones converjan a través de sus legados arquitectónicos. Gracias a este enfoque innovador, el lector dispondrá de una lectura transversal comparada que permite comprender las conexiones, contrastes e influencias mutuas de las diferentes culturas arquitectónicas. Cada obra cuenta con una descripción completa del contexto en que se edificó y de sus características más relevantes, y viene acompañada de un rico material gráfico, que puede incluir mapas, fotografías y, por supuesto, las ilustraciones elaboradas por el célebre maestro del dibujo arquitectónico Francis D. K. Ching. Este segundo volumen abarca desde el siglo xv hasta nuestros días, y presenta coincidencias temporales reveladoras, como las del período del Renacimiento europeo, cuyo desarrollo coincide en el tiempo con la construcción del Machu Picchu en Perú y la Ciudad Prohibida de Pekín, o como el esplendor de la arquitectura mogol en la ciudad de Fatehpur Sikri, coincide con la construcción de las primeras haciendas españolas en América y las villas de Andrea Palladio. A su vez, el libro muestra cómo la colonización europea supuso la expansión mundial de la arquitectura del Viejo Continente, un recorrido que llega hasta la era actual de la arquitectura globalizada. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This book 'deconstructs' a single recently constructed house located in Seattle, WA, in an attempt to recover its backstory. The information is presented along four vectors atoms, labors, sources and ingredients.Though remarkably detailed, the A House Deconstructed contends that a huge proportion of what we 'know' about the house is unknowable, not because our epistemological instruments aren't strong enough or calibrated precisely enough, but because things themselves are indeterminate, uncertain.This begs the question about agency. If we are to critique our profession and even improve some of its claims about Sustainability, then we must develop a more robust understanding of the building industry and the sourcing and making of materials. We must even develop a stronger awareness of the history of atoms and how architecture brings that history into a remarkable focus.…
