Hardcover. Condizione: Used - Very Good. At a moment when the architectural profession is beginning to shift from its traditionally male orientation, The Architect: Reconstructing Her Practice examines how the introduction of women to the main body of architecture might bring about a reconstruction of the orders that shape architectural production and consumption. In a collection of autobiographical essays in which practice is both the site and the vehicle for change, twelve American and European architects reflect on the nature of critical practice and its relation to architecture. Very nice clean, tight copy free of any marks.

MIT Press, Cambridge MA and London, 1996; 210 x 234mm; pp 250, [5]; extensively illustrated throughout with monochrome photographs; yellow cloth boards, spine lettered black, largely yellow dust wrapper; occasonal slight dust marking of the wrapper but otherwise an exceptionally good copy of this important and very attractively produced book. The book consists of a dozen autobiographical essays by female architects from both Europe and north America, considering how the introduction of women as architects into the traditionally male profession of architecture might bring about, as the jacket comments, "a reconstruction of the orders that shape architectural production and consumption". NOTE that as the book has been printed on cast coated paper it's fairly heavy, weighing in at over 950g, and will therefor attract a poostage supplement for overseas orders, the exact amount depending on destination and service. Postage will be standard on UK orders.

Aggiungi al carrelloPaperback. Francesca Hughes, MIT Press Ltd. Why the rise of redundant precision in architecture and the accompanying fear of error are key to understanding the discipline's needs, anxieties and desires.When architects draw even brick walls to six decimal places with software designed to cut lenses, it is clear that the logic that once organized relations between precision and material error in construction has unraveled. Precision, already a promiscuous term, seems now to have been uncoupled from its contract with truthfulness. Meanwhile error, and the always-political space of its dissent, has reconfigured itself.In The Architecture of Error Francesca Hughes argues that behind the architect's acute fetishization of redundant precision lies a special fear of physical error. What if we were to consider the pivotal cultural and technological transformations of modernism to have been driven not so much by the causes its narratives declare, she asks, as by an unspoken horror of loss of control over error, material life, and everything that matter stands for? Hughes traces the rising intolerance of material vagaries-from the removal of ornament to digitalized fabrication-that produced the blind rejection of organic materials, the proliferation of material testing, and the rhetorical obstacles that blighted cybernetics. Why is it, she asks, that the more we cornered physical error, the more we feared it?Hughes's analysis of redundant precision exposes an architecture of fear whose politics must be called into question. Proposing error as a new category for architectural thought, Hughes draws on other disciplines and practices that have interrogated precision and failure, citing the work of scientists Nancy Cartwright and Evelyn Fox Keller and visual artists Gordon Matta-Clark, Barbara Hepworth, Rachel Whiteread, and others. These non-architect practitioners, she argues, show that error need not be excluded and precision can be made accountable.Francesca Hughes lives and works in London, where she taught at the Bartlett School of Architecture and the Architectural Association for many years. She is the editor of The Architect- Reconstructing Her Practice (MIT Press) and Drawings That Count. Paperback.
