Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. 80 pages. Explores the roller-coaster ride that is life and investigates our ambiguous attitudes to failure.

Hardcover. 1. Once an architectural project has emerged from the perfect atmosphere of the computer, the drawings and the 3-D models, it inevitably comes up against the logic of the real world. In most cases, the encounter is painless. But sometimes things go wrong, what remains are unfulfilled expectations and broken dreams of overly optimistic architects, owners, and clients. This volume features a selection more or less notorious archiflops scattered over the globe, which are grouped in various thematic sections. Each project is described and its circumstances analyzed and extensively documented via photos. The reader is taken to monumental ghost towns in Asia, grotesque remnants of amusement parks, for example in the USA, and a nuclear power plant in Crimea. The author is not aiming to uncover faults and condemn failed projects but rather to contemplate on how difficult and nearly impossible it is to predict the future of any type of endeavor.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Sobald es den geschützen Raum der Zeichenbretter, spezialisierten Computerprogramme und raffinierten 3D-Modelle verlässt, wird jedes Architekturvorhaben unweigerlich mit den Gegebenheiten der realen Welt konfrontiert. In den meisten Fällen geschieht dies nicht unbedingt reibungslos, jedoch ohne größere Probleme - manchmal geht es aber auch richtig schief! Zurück bleiben enttäuschte Erwartungen und zerschmetterte Träume überoptimistischer Architekten, Bauherren und Auftraggeber.Mit einem Augenzwinkern wird hier eine Auswahl der spektakulärsten Architekturflops vom Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts bis heute vorgestellt. Jedes Projekt wird kurz beschrieben, die Umstände des Scheiterns analysiert und anhand von Fotos ausführlich dokumentiert. Der Leser wird zu monumentalen Geisterstädten in Asien, den grotesken Überbleibseln von Freizeitparks, beispielsweise in den USA, und einer Atomzentrale auf der Krim geführt. Es geht dem Autor nicht darum, Fehler zu finden und gescheiterte Projekte zu verdammen, sondern darüber nachzudenken, wie schwierig bis unmöglich es für jegliche Art von Vorhaben ist, die eigene Zukunft vorherzusagen.…
