Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. How printed, mass-produced books on architecture shaped knowledge of the discipline itself. Examining the crossovers between book culture and building culture makes the axes visible along which architectural knowledge circulates through books into buildings and back. Dissecting a breadth of architectural books through five conceptual tools-texture, surface, rhythm, structure and scale-author and architect Andre Tavares analyzes the material quality of books in order to assess their dialogue with architectural knowledge at large. The detailed history of Sigfried Giedion's Befreites Wohnen and the two incarnations of the Crystal Palace in Hyde Park and Sydenham provide a background that confront us not only with the rise of the industrialized book but also with the configuration of the book as a unique visual device. Richly illustrated with samples from the library of the Canadian Centre for Architecture, the volume discusses a wide range of publications by several authors, including Vitruvius, William Morris, Gottfried Semper and Le Corbusier. This book was published in conjunction with Canadian Centre for Architecture. AUTHOR: Andre Tavares is an architect and the founder of Dafne Editora, a publishing company based in Porto. He was chief co-curator of the 2016 Lisbon Architecture Triennale. His other books on architecture include Vitruvius without Text (gta publishers, 2022) and Architecture Follows Fish (MIT Press, 2024). SELLING POINTS: . A history of the design and production of architectural books, from early color printing in 19th-century books on the Crystal Palace to Sigfried Giedion's Befreites Wohnen and beyond. .

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. A highly original exploration of the history of architecture in relation to fish, shedding light on the connection between marine environments and terrestrial landscapes.A highly original exploration of the history of architecture in relation to fish, shedding light on the connection between marine environments and terrestrial landscapes.Architecture Follows Fish is set in the North Atlantic, and its protagonist is fish. In this book author and architect Andre Tavares explores the notion of fishing architecture, a concept coined to describe architectural practices that are spawned by fisheries. To encompass the scope of fishing architecture, and to establish the connections between marine ecology and architectural practice, the book oscillates between different continents, centuries, and species. Fisheries are unique, and this book sheds light on that uniqueness through an articulated narrative and a wealth of iconography.Up until now there has been no history of architecture from the perspective of fish, although there are counterparts for meat, timber, oil, and many other industries. Tavares provides a counternarrative to the traditional history of marine environments, which tends to focus on water ecosystems, and instead forms a bridge between what happens at sea and what happens on land. The hope is that, after reading this book, readers will better understand life in the sea in relation to urban growth and terrestrial landscapes. "To what extent can a fish produce architecture? This book sets out to trace a socioecological history of North Atlantic architecture in relation to fisheries, thus shedding light on the connection that exists between the transformation of marine environments and terrestrial landscapes"-- Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
