Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Small stone hutongs, built within a courtyard-and-alley system, are emblematic of Beijing's traditional inner-city architecture which still contends with modern, cooperate redevelopments to shape the character of the city. In one of the oldest cities in China, the important tasks of preservation and revitalization require particular sensitivity. Captured at the centre of the battlefield between development, conservation and renovation, the hutongs, on the verge of erasure, call into question the paradoxical nature of these paradigms.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -Aga Khan Award for Architecture 2022 - Inclusive ArchitectureThe release of the Aga Khan Award for Architecture every three years is an enormously important moment for the architecture world. The projects recognized by this Award represent the vanguard of thinking and practice in architecture that goes beyond the regular scope of building, planning and preservation through its strong impact on the needs and aspirations of societies. This publication presents the twenty shortlisted projects, including the six recipients of the 2020-22 cycle of the Award.The Aga Khan Award for Architecture's mandate is different from that of many other architecture prizes: it not only rewards architects but also identifies municipalities, builders, clients, artisans and engineers who have played essential roles in the realization of a project. This publication thus presents the projects from various viewpoints alongside detailed and up-to-date images and descriptions.The acclaimed, interdisciplinary master jury and steering committee of this cycle of the Aga Khan Award for Architecture that determines the projects presented include David Chipperfield, Francis Kéré, Anna Lacaton, Marina Tabassum, and Sarah M. Whiting, to name but a few. Scholarly essays across various disciplines from members of the master jury and steering committee round out the publication. Contributions include a text on the optimism of humanity by Souleymane Bachir Diagne, director of the Institute of African Studies, Columbia University, and a contextualization of Modern Architecture in the Muslim World by Sibel Bozdogan of Boston University. Kazi Khaleed Ashraf, director-general of the Bengal Institute for Architecture, Landscapes and Settlements, in Dhaka, Bangladesh, writes on the perspective of the dialogical, while Nasser Rabbat, the Aga Khan Professor at MIT, shares notes on architecture as a humanist empire. The texts also include a Salon des Refusés by Nader Teherani, founding principal of Boston-based architecture firm NADAAA.The texts, which come from a wide range of geographies, are informative and descriptive, often striking an emotional note. Together with the project presentations, the publication thereby guides the reader through a contemplation of an architectural question of increasing urgency in our current times of crisis: how to build ethically for our shared global future.With contributions by Kazi Khaleed Ashraf, Sibel Bozdogan, Souleymane Bachir Diagne, Farrokh Derakhshani, Nasser Rabbat, Nader Teherani, and Sarah M. Whiting.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -This book presents Rahul Mehrotra's writings over the last thirty years and illustrates his long-term engagement with and analysis of urbanism in India. This work has given rise to a new conceptualization of the city. Mehrotra calls it the Kinetic City, which is the counterpoint to the Static City, as familiar to most of us from conventional city maps. He argues that the city should instead be perceived, read, and mapped in terms of patterns of occupation and associative values attributed to space. The framework is established in this publication by Rahul Mehrotra's anchor essay, which draws out its potential to 'allow a better understanding of the blurred lines of contemporary urbanism and the changing roles of people and spaces in urban society.'.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -'Building to Heal: New Architecture for Hospitals' examines the hardships and major challenges faced by the hospital system today and presents innovative models and solutions in healthcare architecture. Through critical, scientifically based discourse, a variety of authors examine healthcare systems and hospital architecture, what hospitals are missing, and how architecture can contribute to the healing process of patients.The publication answers these questions in three comprehensive chapters based on the medical process: 'Symptoms,' 'Diagnosis,' and 'Therapy.' The introductory section describes the symptoms of the 'sick house' and spotlights the urgent need to take these problems seriously in the contexts of both society as a whole and architecture. In the second section, experts from psychology, medicine, and the related sciences, as well as from architectural theory and philosophy, take a diagnostic look at the complex causes that lead to the 'diseased house.' The third section presents seven 'active ingredients' or scientifically investigated environmental variables for successful therapy, incorporating tools from evidence-based design. Finally, thirteen international case studies show how the conscious use of environmental variables leads to a hospital architecture that promotes healing.Building to Heal: New Architecture for Hospitals bridges the gap between the ever-growing expertise on healthcare architecture and the urgent need for planners, politicians, and the public to pay attention to one of the most important issues in architecture today: health.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -MARINA TABASSUM Architecture: My Journey is the first book devoted to the Bangladeshi architect Marina Tabassum and her multifaceted architectural oeuvre.Marina Tabassum's exploratory approach makes her architectural practice one of the outstanding contemporary positions internationally. Her diverse oeuvre spans from governmental projects to housing and has brought her numerous honors and accolades in the international field of architecture.This volume presents various public and private building projects that Marina Tabassum has worked on since 1995, first with the architectural office URBANA and since 2005 through Marina Tabassum Architects (MTA). The selection of her architecture in this book ranges from early projects in the city of Dhaka shortly after completing her studies at Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET), such as the Museum of Independence and the celebrated Bait Ur Rouf Mosque, to recent mobile modular structures called Khudi Bari. Tabassum is establishing the latter for the people affected by displacement in various geographically and climatically challenged locations-both in the Ganges Delta and in the Rohingya refugee camp at Cox's Bazar on the border to Myanmar, which is currently the largest refugee camp in the world.The internationally renowned authors reflect on various perspectives and interpretations of Tabassum's work. Besides the historical and political background, the contributions deal, among other things, with spotlighting particular architectural elements that pervade Tabassum's work, such as place and memory, light and spirituality, brick and materiality, and people and community.With contributions by Sean Anderson, Vera Simone Bader, Kareem Ibrahim, Hanif Kara, Andres Lepik, Nondita Correa Mehrotra, Tanzil Shafique, Cristina Steingräber, Marina Tabassum, Sarah M.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Since the firm's founding twenty-five years ago, AKT II have forged an international practice that unifies the cultures and disciplines of architecture and structural engineering. This book is an engine for critical reflection on the scope, potential, and limits of what they have come to define as design engineering.Structured into five discursive domains-scale, variability, attitude, reverse engineering, and the craftsmanship of engineering-the book presents a robust selection of the firm's endeavours, which together demonstrate a vast range of encounters and processes in design. Common among them is a desire to understand and reshape the boundaries of the discipline of structural engineering, along with its links to fields such as philosophy, computer science, and geography. Interlaced with the projects, texts by contributors from varying fields engage the theoretical discussions and social conditions that bind contemporary practice.Matters of Engineering Design: AKT II balances structural concerns that require an equilibrium of internal and external forces, a clear understanding of boundary conditions, and knowledge of the properties of material with the overarching challenges that society faces today, including advances in technology, changing economic orders, and ecological responsibility.With contributions by William Baker, David Basulto, Hanif Kara, Jayne Kelley, Priya Khanchandani, Adrian Lahoud, Lesley Lokko, Ibrahim Mahama, Stephen Parnell, Vicky Richardson, and Ellis Woodman.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware -'Das Kranke(n)haus. Wie Architektur heilen hilft' untersucht die heutigen Notstände und großen Herausforderungen des Klinikwesens und stellt innovative Modelle und Lösungsansätze im Gesundheitsbau vor. Eine Vielzahl von Autoren untersucht im kritisch wissenschaftsfundierten Diskurs die Frage, wie es um das Gesundheitswesen und den Krankenhausbau steht, was den Krankenhäusern fehlt und wie die Architektur helfen kann, zum Heilungsprozess der Patient\*innen beizutragen.Die Publikation beantwortet diese Fragen in drei umfangreichen Kapiteln, die an den medizinischen Prozess angelehnt sind: Symptomatik, Diagnostik und Therapie. Der erste, einleitende Abschnitt beschreibt die Symptome des 'kranken Hauses' und zeigt die dringende Notwendigkeit auf, diese Probleme gesamtgesellschaftlich und architektonisch ernst zu nehmen. Im zweiten Abschnitt werfen Expert\*innen aus der Psychologie, Medizin, angrenzenden Naturwissenschaften, aus der Architekturtheorie und Philosophie einen diagnostischen Blick auf die komplexen Ursachen, die zur 'Erkrankung des Hauses' führen. Schließlich werden im dritten Abschnitt unter Einbeziehung gestalterischer Instrumente aus dem Evidence Based Design sieben 'Wirkstoffe' beziehungsweise wissenschaftlich untersuchte Umgebungsvariablen zur erfolgreichen Therapie vorgestellt. Abschließend wird anhand von 13 internationalen Fallstudien aufgezeigt, wie der bewusste Einsatz der Umgebungsvariablen zu einer Krankenhausarchitektur führt, die heilen hilft.'Das Kranke(n)haus. Wie Architektur heilen hilft' schließt die Lücke zwischen dem stets wachsenden Fachwissen zum Gesundheitsbau und dringend notwendiger öffentlicher, planerischer und politischer Aufmerksamkeit für eines der wichtigsten Themen der heutigen Architektur: Gesundheit.
