Synopsis
- Explores the context between architectural object and its surrounding landscape
- Visualises recent research findings of EPFL's Laboratoy Basel (laba) in striking, informative graphics, maps and photographs
- Features proposals for architectural interventions in the significant field of housing by laba's students
Portugal Lessons takes Portugal as a case study for such contextualism going beyond an understanding of design as immunisation. Based on the latest research program conducted by EPFL's Laboratory Basel (laba), it explores the topic of this architectural boundary: with whom we live, to whom we open our house, how permeable the boundary should be. The findings are visualised in striking images, graphics and maps. The book also features proposals for architectural interventions by laba's students, all of them tackling issues of housing.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Architectural objects confront their environment. They constitute a boundary, a form with an internalized point of view. Understanding architecture as environmental objects suggest a questioning of these dichotomies of separation between the symbolic landmark and the landscape background.

The book also features proposals for architectural interventions by laba's students, all of them tackling issues of housing.; Architektonische Objekte stellen sich ihrer Umgebung entgegen. Sie beschreiben eine Grenze, eine Form mit einem eigenen, internalisierten Blickwinkel. Architektur als «Umgebungsobjekt» oder environmental object zu verstehen, bedeutet, diese Dichotomie von symbolischem Markstein und landschaftlichem Hintergrund zu hinterfragen und Architekturen zu entwerfen, welche die Natur verstärken, sich auf sie einstimmen und ins Bewusstsein rücken. Portugal Lessons: Environmental Objects betrachtet Portugal als Fallbeispiel für diesen Kontextualismus, der uns dabei helfen kann, das Verständnis des architektonischen Entwurfsprozesses als Immunisierung zu überwinden. Das jüngste Forschungsprojekt des Laboratoire Bâle (laba) der EPFL ging dieser Frage nach der Grenze eines Hauses zu seiner Umgebung nach: mit wem wir zusammenleben und in unser Haus einladen, wie durchlässig diese Grenze sein soll. Die Ergebnisse werden wiederum reich mit Bildern, Grafiken und Karten illustriert dargelegt. Zudem präsentiert das Buch Vorschläge für architektonische Interventionen zum Thema Wohnungsbau von Studierenden des laba. Seller Inventory # 9783038601098
