Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This fascinating exploration into the history of Architectural design re-evaluates the conservative influences that have shaped architecture throughout history. The author argues that architecture has often been dominated by reverence for the past, where forms are replicated without consideration of their original purpose or meaning. The book challenges the prevailing schools of thought, particularly the neo-classical and neo-Gothic revivals, suggesting that they stifle innovation. Instead, the author presents a comprehensive view of architecture, looking at its technical and social evolution over time. The book emphasizes the importance of the architect's involvement in the construction process and the significance of the natural environment, craftsmanship and historical association in architectural design. This book will enlighten and inspire architects to look beyond established forms and embrace the true meaning and purpose of design. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781330299067_0
