The Book of Drawings + Sketches? is dedicated on the individual handwriting of the most important and influential architects of our time. The hand-drawn vision highlights the main features and characteristics of a building, which is overshadowed by the seemingly perfectly realistic approach of a rendering. Despite the nearly unending possibilities of computer-based methods, drawings and sketches remain the most intuitive expression method of architects. Beyond the pure conveying of information through a mechanical drawing, the various techniques of manual drawing can convey individual sentiments and impressions. The result is a larger degree of authenticity coupled with an emphasis of the human dimension of architecture. The volume combines the most diverse drawing and painting methods, juxtaposing implemented sketches with selected photos of the final result, allowing readers to comprehend the connection between the intention and outcome themselves.|Books|https://wordery.com/jackets/da79f158/the-book-of-drawings-sketches-architecture-chris-van-uffelen-9783037681503.jpg|9783037681503|The Book of Drawings + Sketches - Architecture : Hardback : Braun Publishing AG : 9783037681503 : 28 Oct 2013 : After the success of Architectural Visions, with its focus on the German speaking countries, this volume is devoted to the individual handw ...|new|1|1|2|35|0|GBP|Chris van Uffelen|Braun Publishing AG|28 Oct 2013|Environmentally-friendly architecture & design 9783037680926|Light in Architecture|56.31|https://wordery.com/light-in-architecture-chris-van-uffelen-9783037680926|Light is the prerequisite for spatial perception ? which is why it is an integral component of architecture. Light design in architecture has become more lively and also more colorful in the last few years. The projects selected for this publication show how good design can be considerably improved with the right light. For interior design, the purpose of the introduction of natural light and the use of artificial light is to create a spatial experience: certain areas are accentuated, spatial units are defined and differing atmospheres are established. Illumination also plays a role with exteriors, not just at night. In addition to the form emphasizing role of light, a striking illumination can lend the building an emblematic uniqueness.|Books|https://wordery.com/jackets/251a495a/light-in-architecture-chris-van-uffelen-9783037680926.jpg|9783037680926|Light in Architecture : Hardback : Braun Publishing AG : 9783037680926 : 12 Dec 2011 : Light is the prerequisite for spatial perception which is why it is an integral component of architecture.

The construction of churches, synagogues, mosques and other building which are used for sacred, ritual or ceremonial acts is still considered the most prestigious of construction tasks. Next to functional demands, which are heavily ritualized in liturgical practice, the architects must concentrate particularly on the aesthetic expression. The space must operate as a framework for belief, with specific reference to the religion to be served. It must also be an appropriate stage for the experience of the divine service and concomitant spirituality. This volume shows exceptional examples of buildings from the various religions and denominations which often attain the status of works of art.|Books|https://wordery.com/jackets/46670c9f/masterpieces-sacred-architecture-design-chris-van-uffelen-9783037681534.jpg|9783037681534|Masterpieces: Sacred Architecture + Design : Hardback : Braun Publishing AG : 9783037681534 : 28 Oct 2013 : Spiritual Spaces|new|1|1|5|39.95|0|GBP|Chris van Uffelen|Braun Publishing AG|28 Oct 2013|Religious buildings 9783037645697|Museum of the Future: Now What?|16.00|https://wordery.com/museum-of-the-future-now-what-cristina-bechtler-9783037645697|What is the function of the museum in culture today? Leading culture makers offer perspectives for the new era ahead Gathering together fresh perspectives from more than 25 leading art and museum figures?including artists, architects, curators and museum directors?from all over the world, this collection of interviews and contributions shares idiosyncratic views, feedback and visions of what is and what should or should not be a museum in the 21st century, both inherently and in our fast-changing cultural ecosystem. Do we need a new art historical canon? How can museums become welcoming places for everybody? How should a museum deal with artworks that are considered problematic today? Is the blockbuster a thing of the past? How can museums be sustainable? These are some of the pressing questions answered very differently by the contributors, together with others dealing with the relationships between the local and the global, the museums' governance and financial organization, technological possibilities, and audience-related challenges. Showing the diversity of today's thinking about the museum, this tome constitutes a valuable handbook for navigating an ever-evolving landscape. Edited by Cristina Bechtler and Dora Imhof, the book is introduced by Chris Dercon and concludes with a postface by Hans Ulrich Obrist. Interviewees and contributors include: David Adjaye, Richard Armstrong, Manuel Borja-Villel, Lionel Bovier, Raphael Chikukwa, David Chipperfield, Bice Curiger, Clementine Deliss, Madeleine Grynsztejn, Sabine Haag, Camille Henrot, Jacques Herzog, Josef Helfenstein, Junya Ishigami, Sam Keller, Ramiro Martínez, Sarah Morris, Dimitri Ozerkov, Adriano Pedrosa, Susanne Pfeffer, Manuel Rabaté, Rebecca Rabinow, Pipilotti Rist, Adam Szymczyk and Eugene Tan.|Books|https://wordery.com/jackets/6a5811d4/museum-of-the-future-now-what-cristina-bechtler-9783037645697.jpg|9783037645697|Museum of the Future: Now What? : Paperback : JRP Ringier : 9783037645697 : 22 Nov 2021 : What is the function of the museum in culture today?

They have developed into city-like complexes and multifunctional systems. While being set up to serve the needs of smoothly running air traffic they have taken on all the functions of a normal community as well: sleeping, shopping, work and leisure time and all that increasingly with 24/7 access. After an era of purely functional architecture, the nodal points of air traffic have become one of the most prominent architectural tasks of the present. Drawing on 60 examples, this volume shows the exciting multiplicity of contemporary airport construction and design. The projects presented include the newest large scale airports, as well as long term building projects, smaller airports at more remote locations as well as expansions and individual new functional areas like air traffic control centers, hangars or lounges.|Books|https://wordery.com/jackets/892e291d/airport-architecture-chris-van-uffelen-9783037681046.jpg|9783037681046|Airport Architecture : Hardback : Braun Publishing AG : 9783037681046 : 16 Apr 2012 : Taking-off and landing in style|new|1|1|1|45|0|GBP|Chris van Uffelen|Braun Publishing AG|16 Apr 2012|Public buildings: civic, commercial, industria ... 9783037666609|Candice B|17.97|https://wordery.com/candice-b-isabella-catalina-9783037666609|Voluptuous Candice B is one of MetArt's top erotic models.
