Hardcover. Condizione: Very good +. Hardcover. 13" X 10 1/4". 368pp. Very mild shelf wear to covers, corners, and edges of pictorial over boards. Price sticker to rear board. Spine backed in brown cloth and lettered in white and gilt. Pages are bright, clean, and unmarked. Binding is tight and sound. ABOUT THIS BOOK: Hassan Fathy is Egypt's best-known 20th-century architect. He was also a man of contradictions. He came from a wealthy background and had a western-style training. Yet he embraced traditional, vernacular forms, techniques, and materials and throughout his career promoted their use as part of a campaign to improve the conditions of Egypt's rural poor. Earth & Utopia chronicles this lifelong commitment through personal interviews conducted by the author, photographs, and drawings from the Hassan Fathy archives, and Fathy's own writings on the subject, many of which are published for the first time. This beautiful, fascinating, and scholarly book will be essential reading for students, academics, and general readers interested in Fathy, and the development of Arab and vernacular architecture, earth construction, architecture for the poor, and sustainability.

Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Near Fine. First Edition. 1992. xxi, 472pp. B&W illustrations. "Examining in detail the cities of Shibam and Tarim, Dr Damluji analyses the buildings and planning of the Hadramut region of Yemen. She argues that many new building practices are unsuited to the local environment, lack consideration of climatic needs and are technically inferior to long established construction methods. Moreover, they presuppose imported expertise and raw materials and therefore have implications for economic and cultural autonomy." Both book and unclipped dust jacket are in excellent condition. All contents are tight and clean. There are no inscriptions.PLEASE NOTE: Heavy book so extra will be needed for shipping to non-UK customers.

Original cloth, pictorial dustjacket. Very fine. Reading, Garnet Publishing, 1992. 4to. 31 x 24 cms. 352 pp. Richly illustrated throughout with colour photographs. With map. Photographer John Hedgecoe and the editor Salma Samar Damluji were given unprecedented access to Morocco s finest buildings, including Royal Palaces, and to private and state museum collections. Through the auspices of the Ministry of Culture in Morocco, a unique book on one of the world s great forms of art has been created. It was through the art of zillïj, intricate cut-tile patterns, that Moroccan craftsmen achieved their most sophisticated expression of precision, spatial geometry and aesthetics. This book is a careful study of the achievements of those craftsmen in the art of zillij. It is also, as importantly, an investigation into the relationship of zillij designs to ceramics, which present the designs on a new scale and with a new function. Zillij: The Art of Moroccan Ceramics is essential to the library of all those interested, either professionally or otherwise, in architecture, design, ceramics, Islamic and decorative arts.

Hardcover. Condizione: As New. Condizione sovraccoperta: As New. First Edition. 304 pp., 600 illustrations, of which 400 in colour, glossary, notes, index, cloth in dust wrapper, copy in mint condition. New. Until the early 1990s the southern and eastern towns of Yemen were extremely difficult to access. The result of nearly two decades of research, this is the first book to offer an in-depth investigation into the characteristic architecture of the region. The author's first-hand research provides detailed insights into building techniques and methods that, though still practised, are little known outside the area. Refreshingly, the book moves out of the more familiar major cities into the hinterlands and explores regions that could be said to be the last strongholds of traditional Arab architecture. The author was allowed to visit locations and sites that had previously been closed to architectural historians. As a result of this privileged access, the text and images combine to convey unique insights and viewpoints: those of the master builders and house owners who actually create and inhabit the buildings. It includes a unique glossary of over 900 terms. # 25740.
