In our current global networked culture that puts so much emphasis on the virtual and the visual, the mind and the body have become detached and ultimately disconnected. Though physical appearance is idolised for its sexual appeal and its social identity, the role of the body in developing a full understanding of the physical world and the human condition has become neglected. The potential of the human body as a knowing entity – with all our senses as well as our entire bodily functions being structured to produce and maintain silent knowledge together – fails to be recognised. It is only through the unity of mind and body that craftsmanship and artistic work can be fully realised. Even those endeavours that are generally regarded as solely intellectual, such as writing and thinking, depend on this union of mental and manual skills. In The Thinking Hand, Juhani Pallasmaa reveals the miraculous potential of the human hand. He shows how the pencil in the hand of the artist or architect becomes the

This publication and the exhibition it accompanies feature 36 current architectural projects throughout Spain, a country that in recent years has become known as a center for design innovation and excellence well beyond Bilbao. The projects are seen in relation to 16 other major architectural accomplishments recently completed in Spain. They reflect diversity in the geography of their sites; in scale, from private houses to a new international airport; and in the architects who have conceived them, from relative newcomers to established practitioners, both Spanish and from other countries in Europe, Asia, and the United States. On Site: New Architecture in Spain includes an introductory essay by Terence Riley, the Philip Johnson Chief Curator of the Department of Architecture and Design at The Museum of Modern Art. His recent publications include Yoshio Taniguchi: Nine Museums and Tall Buildings.

The power of simplicity is fundamental to minimalist living .It is the purest essence of the home and interior ,with no redundancy or frills.although widely seen today.minimalism only took flight when Luminaries such as john pawson,Claudio silvestrin,peter zumthor and alberto campo baeza brought about far =reaching changes in the world of contemporary architecture and interiors with their minimalistic designs.This book presents 12 recently completed projects by leading architects and designers who are all worthy ambassadors of the "less is more"principle.

The Yokohama Project: An interesting building usually has an equally interesting tale to tell, an epic embedded in the organization of the massive, complex amount of matter used to create the structure. This book recounts the story of the Yokokama Project, an inventive, undulating, grass-covered ferry terminal that was never meant to be built. Asked to produce some material for an architectural journal, London-based architects Farshid Moussavi and Alejandro Zaera-Polo of FOA (Foreign Office Architects) set themselves a program of entering three competitions, through which to explore design ideas they had become interested in. When they actually won the second competition, for the Yokohama International Port Terminal, in Yokohama, Japan, their plans suddenly changed. The Yokohama Project presents a textual and visual replica of the way their winning building was developed, over eight years, by FOA and a huge team of engineers and researchers in Tokyo and Yokohama. Unlike the typical architectural book, this on

Between these covers lies a collection of homes that range from the wildly eccentric to the downright gorgeous. In many parts of Asia, where design is still viewed as a luxury, these funky abodes are proof that even in the most oppressive and conservative societies, design will survive. Immerse yourself in luscious, inspiring photographs and poetic text, which go behind the doors and into the lives and loves of the designers and occupants. Oozing with design appeal and overflowing with personality, these homes are the materialisation of the designers' dedication to detail and refusal to conform to the norm, and the very embodiment of its occupants' personalities. Take a tour with us as we seek out individual homes in Asia that break out of the norm and pile on the style. From tiny apartments to spacious bungalows, these projects are bursting at the seams with style and personality. 作者简介： KELLEY CHENG-PERSONAL PROFILE:Graduated with two degrees from the National University of

This excellent hands-on guide to designing environmentally friendly buildings -- those made from materials that preserve the earth's natural legacy for future generations -- is written by two nationally known experts on the subject. You'll find practical information on green product selection, product specification, and construction processes. You'll also learn just what green building materials are, where you can find them, and how you can use them effectively. This edition includes updated information on LEED requirements and how to integrate them into the specifications process and new sections on commissioning and on construction waste management. Other features are guidelines on how to evaluate the "greenness" of building materials, helpful sample forms to aid in selecting and specifying materials, and a brief history of relevant environmental legislation.

Shopping, which was seen by our ancestors as a necessity, has increasingly taken on a purely lucrative character (although this has obviously always been present to some extent). The store window lies at the frontier between the buyer and the seller, and in recent years it has broadened its horizons to become a conduit for ideological statements and a work of art in its own right. The window display represents society, with all its desires and dreams, as a theater show (another similarly ephemeral art form). In this way, the act of exhibiting a product in a store window enriches it and makes it recognizable and attractive, making it stay in the viewer's mind until the moment when it is purchased.

Emergence is an important new concept in artificial intelligence, information theory, digital technology, economics, climate studies, material science and biometric engineering. It is a development which is set to inform not only the construction of buildings, but also the composition of new materials. As a new science, coupled with material and technological innovations, it is set to enter architecture into a new phase of transition. This book presents an account of related developments in artificial intelligence and evolutionary computation, and shows how these developments are being incorporated into new architectures. This book marks the introduction of a new topic in design; Includes high quality CAD images; Accompanies a travelling exhibition, showing in Oslo and Copenhagen; Includes interviews with Frei Otto and a review of the Advanced Geometry Group at Ove Arup and Partners. 作者简介： Michael Hensel, Achim Menges and Michael Weinstock are co-
