Hardcover. Condizione: New. The Thickening of Time, a new book by senior SCI-Arc faculty Coy Howard, continues the schoolâs tradition of innovation by challenging the current status of digital architecture. Published by SCI-Arc Press in collaboration with the architect, the 288-page volume features Howardâs exploration of the aesthetic implication of seductive insinuations, mysterious withholdings, liminal indirections, and subtle allusions in the design of three urban rooftop villa projects. The book features more than 100 carefully constructed and choreographed digital images embedding the deep cultural terroir of the three cities of Los Angeles, Tokyo and New York. Each of the images is constructed to engender a mood and sense of place rather than depict or illustrate an architectural concept. Fusing the avant-garde and the traditional, the designs of the villas create a poetic sense of serenity, where the desires for the future and the memories of the past are sensed simultaneously. Critical essays by Dr. George Rand, Jeffrey Kipnis, and Larry Rouch position the work in a broad range of topics, including the current critical discussions on the impact of digital imagery on architecture. About Coy Howard: Coy Howard is a designer with a broad range of interests and accomplishments. His furniture is included the permanent collections of The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, and the Denver Art Museum. Examples of his graphic designs are held in several international museums, including The Museum of Modern Art in New York, and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. He has won a broad range of awards for his work, and consulted as an advisor to many major institutions, including The Getty Center, The Israel Museum in Jerusalem, and The Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles. Additionally, he has directed two educational programs, the undergraduate program at SCI-Arc, and the Department of the Environmental Arts at Otis College of Art and Design. In 2008, he was the Eero Saarinen Distinguished Professor at the University of Michigan Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning. In 2012, he was the Bernoudy Architect in Residence at The American Academy in Rome. Currently, Howard teaches design studio at SCI-Arc. Reviews: âWay back in the late 1970s I became aware of those projects for houses that detached Coy Howardâs work from those other clever young men in Los Angeles. It was through their solemn depiction of a majestic but slightly spooky presence. By the time he was in our Exhibition at the Architectural Association in 1983, I was able to observe that his âDrawlsâ âwere saying something about human mannerism as well as graphic representation.â As time has gone on, his very particular sensibility has wonderfully meshed together with the ability of digital manipulation to present a world of atmospherics that do not demand physical justification. In a sense they say more about physicality than reality: for they are not constrained by logical sequence, or programme, or the tedium of consistency. I had not realized the connection with Perry Kulper until I read this book: but it suddenly makes sense. If Kulperâs method is a graphic juxtaposition of the unlikely alongside the unlikely, Coy is able to take such alchemy a stage further: he can melt the vision. He can take his wonderful âeyeâ and take things to a (still often rather spooky) edge, where few of us have dared to go. It is haunting stuff, and no wonder many of the most recent students continue to value him so much and refer to his insight. For me, he is more fascinating than ever.â â"Sir Peter Cook, 2002 RIBA Gold Medalist, Founder of Archigram âEnigmatically beautiful, resisting traditional architectural explanation, Coy Howardâs âThe Thickening of Timeâ seduces us with his âfelt-rather-than-thoughtâ work filled with strange suggestions and littered with the playfully unexpected, engendering a rich phenomenal pres.…
