Based on several years of detailed research into the architectural consequences of construction when exposed to industrialised production techniques and systems, System Structures in Architecture represents a new way to look at what is already there. The author proposes a system structure in architectural design that conceptualises a systemic level in architecture and construction that lies between general construction techniques and specific architectural results. In order to make such a system structure operational, the elaboration of the model seeks on the one hand to analytically grasp and on the other hand to make it possible to actively work with system structures as part of architectural design. Kasper S�nchez Vib�k's ambition is to bridge an apparent and increasing gap between architectural ideation and the way these ideas are brought to life as real physical manifestations of our built environment. In line with the so-called systems sciences the book rejects the prevalent scientific view that the degree of detail 'automatically' enhances understanding and explanative power of complex phenomena. It establishes the idea of a systems view on buildings and architectural design that through the use of flexible constituent elements facilitates discussion and decision making about how architectural wholes are appropriately put together as assemblages of what the current and future building industry is capable of producing. This book is for all those interested in the processes of architectural creation and realisation specifically attached to time, place and cultural context., Integrating Design Complexity in Industrialised Construction.

We see how politics happens in architectural practice, learn how different design technologies have political effects, and follow how architects reach different publics, trigger reactions and affect different communities worldwide.Combining an accessible introduction to contemporary political concepts with a practical approach for a more political kind of practice, this book will stimulate debate among students and theorists alike, and inspire action in established and start-up practices.The writings of Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari have had an immense impact on architectural discourse during the last two decades, particularly in the realm of digital design and fabrication.On the eleventh anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, a group of heavily armed Islamic terrorists had their sights set on the U.S.It gives currency to the emergence of surface studiesŸan interdisciplinary field in humanities that considers the philosophical, ontological, psychological, performative, spatial, visual, and formal nature of surfaces (natural, artificial, real, and virtual).-- Choice, During the Iranian Constitutional Revolution of 1906 to 1911 a variety of forces played key roles in overthrowing a repressive regime.By taking pre-existing conditions seriously, each project, architectural or analytical, large or small, becomes understood as the strategic renovation of a continuing state.The Technique of Islamic Bookbinding is the first monograph dedicated to the technical development of the bookbinding tradition in the Islamic world.Apple computers, Uniqlo clothes, or Nike shoes can all be found here in a spirit of perfect harmony with the best that today's architecture and design can offer.How long could this go before they traced the leaks to me?, The true story of a former CIA operative that was recruited out of Iran, while serving as a member of the secretive and feared Revolutionary Guards., Timely, riveting, and revealing, A Time to Betray gives readers an unprecedented glimpse into the inner workings of the Iranian government and an insightful look at one of America's greatest enemies.For the first time, this book traces the impact of urban renewal on architectural education at two schools of architecture and planning whose host cities were critical sites for urban renewal in the U.S.
