Beyond Architecture Michael Kenna
Author: Yvonne Meyer-Lohr
Publisher: National Geographic Books
ISBN: 3791385828
Category : Photography
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
A stunning selection of black-and-white photographs taken by Michael Kenna over the past forty-five years. Michael Kenna is regarded as one of the most accomplished photographers working today. This book charts Kenna's work in the field of architectural photography, showing how his approach to the built environment informs his style, whether he's capturing natural or human-made structures. In page after page of lush duotone illustrations, the book creates dialogs between images to show how Kenna applies light, shadow, composition, and perspective to similar effect in different settings. Yvonne Meyer-Lohr's astute curatorial approach helps us understand how deftly Kenna moves between techniques, whether he is capturing the network of cables on a suspension bridge, the glittering jewels of a nighttime cityscape, or the haunting silhouette of a factory tower. Accompanied by insightful texts by Meyer-Lohr, this volume is a comprehensive look at a brilliant photographer whose dedication to craft and technique sets him apart from his contemporaries.

Build Beyond Zero
Author: Bruce King
Publisher: Island Press
ISBN: 164283212X
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 282
Book Description
“Net Zero” has been an effective rallying cry for the green building movement, signaling a goal of having every building generate at least as much energy as it uses. Enormous strides have been made in improving the performance of every type of new building, and even more importantly, renovating the vast and energy-inefficient collection of existing buildings in every country. If we can get every building to net-zero energy use in the next few decades, it will be a huge success, but it will not be enough. In Build Beyond Zero, carbon pioneers Bruce King and Chris Magwood re-envision buildings as one of our most practical and affordable climate solutions instead of leading drivers of climate change. They provide a snapshot of a beginning and map towards a carbon-smart built environment that acts as a CO2 filter. Professional engineers, designers, and developers are invited to imagine the very real potential for our built environment to be a site of net carbon storage, a massive drawdown pool that could help to heal our climate. The authors, with the help of other industry experts, show the importance of examining what components of an efficient building (from windows to solar photovoltaics) are made with, and how the supply chains deliver all those products and materials to a jobsite. Build Beyond Zero looks at the good and the bad of how we track carbon (Life Cycle Assessment), then takes a deep dive into materials (with a focus on steel and concrete) and biological architecture, and wraps up with education, policy and governance, circular economy, and where we go in the next three decades. In Build Beyond Zero, King and Magwood show how buildings are culprits but stand poised to act as climate healers. They offer an exciting vision of climate-friendly architecture, along with practical advice for professionals working to address the carbon footprint of our built environment.

Beyond Architecture: The NEW New York
Author: Barbaralee Diamonstein-Spielvogel
Publisher: New York Review of Books
ISBN: 1681379112
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 334
Book Description
A volume of new essays by a range of contributors—architectural critics, city planners, historians, scholars, journalists, and more—to commemorate the sixtieth anniversary of the passage of the New York City Landmarks Law, exploring the past, present, and future of historic preservation in America’s great metropolis. Beyond Architecture: The New New York is a volume of new essays, never before in print, commissioned by the NYC Landmarks60 Alliance to commemorate the sixtieth anniversary of the passage of the New York City Landmarks Law. The 1965 law established the Landmarks Preservation Commission (LPC) and initiated the era of historic preservation in New York City (the largest city in the United States). Today (as of July 2024) the Landmarks Preservation Commission oversees more than 38,000 buildings and sites throughout New York City, and has designated 158 historic districts and extensions, 1,464 individual landmarks, 123 interior landmarks, and 12 scenic landmarks (for example, all of Central Park comprises one landmark). “Honor our past, imagine our future” is the axiom of the NYC Landmarks60 Alliance. The contributors have written essays with forward-looking visions and consider “the future of the past” in the twenty-first century. Each contributor is uniquely placed to understand and explore this challenging topic. Their individual essays explore varied aspects of the impact, legacy, and current and future status of historic preservation in New York City. All the essays are meant to inspire reflection, hope, and excitement about the future of the new New York, its complex history, and its never-ending transformation. The writers have moved beyond architecture to examine the past, present, and future of New York City with creative and careful analyses of the subject which will stimulate thought, discussion, and action as we move toward a new New York.

The City Beyond Architecture
Author: Alessandro Martinelli
Publisher: Listlab
ISBN: 9788832080117
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
Whereas in the Western world suburbanism has finally come to dominate the landscape and the life of most of the people, in Asia activities are all mixed; one can find agricultural production sitting side by side homes, temples, or high-tech factories. It is a new kind of mixitè and, if properly managed, it seems to be more sustainable than a European periphery. In this context, a new movement is developing, one for public space capable of structuring such particular landscape; providing both social spaces and a sense of identity to the communities living in these places. In a way, what is now developing is what landscape urbanism has been theorizing for some time. Specifically, it is happening in places such as Taiwan, where some form of direct democracy is possible. In a way, it is similar to what happened at the onset of the Tessiner school in South Switzerland, or at the time of the Barcelona Olympics, those rare occurrences of city-making, when innovations in planning and design are put forward. But here, it is something that tells us about what the design culture of most of the world's future urbanization could become.

Architecture Beyond Experience
Author: Michael Benedikt
Publisher: ORO Applied Research + Design
ISBN: 9781943532896
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 312
Book Description
Architecture Beyond Experience is an interdisciplinary work in the service of one goal: the bringing about of a more relational, "posthuman" and yet humanist strain in architecture. It argues against the values that currently guide much architectural production (and the larger economy's too), which is the making, marketing, and staging of ever more arresting experiences. The result, in architecture, is experientialism: the belief that what gives a building value, aside from fulfilling its shelter functions, is how its views and spaces make us personally feel as we move around it. I argue that it's time to find a deeper basis for making and judging architecture, a basis which is not personal-experience-multiplied, but which is dialogical and relational from the start. I use the word relational to describe an architecture that guides people in search of encounter with (or avoidance of) each other and that manifests and demonstrates those same desires in its own forms, components, and materials. Buildings are beings. When architecture, they teach as well as protect; they tell us who we were and who we want to be; they exemplify, they deserve respect, invite investment, and reward affection. These are social-relational values, values that both underlie and go beyond experiential ones (sometimes called "phenomenological"). Such relational values have been suppressed, in part because architects have joined the Experience Economy, hardly noticing they have done so. Architecture Beyond Experience provides the argument and the concepts to ultimately re-center a profession.
