The Book of Drawings+sketches Architecture (Tvrdi povez)

The Book of Drawings + Sketches? is dedicated on the individual handwriting of the most important and influential architects of our time. The hand-drawn vision highlights the main features and characteristics of a building, which is overshadowed by the seemingly perfectly realistic approach of a rendering. Despite the nearly unending possibilities of computer-based methods, drawings and sketches remain the most intuitive expression method of architects. Beyond the pure conveying of information through a mechanical drawing, the various techniques of manual drawing can convey individual sentiments and impressions. The result is a larger degree of authenticity coupled with an emphasis of the human dimension of architecture. The volume combines the most diverse drawing and painting methods, juxtaposing implemented sketches with selected photos of the final result, allowing readers to comprehend the connection between the intention and outcome themselves.|Books|https://wordery.com/jackets/da79f158/the-book-of-drawings-sketches-architecture-chris-van-uffelen-9783037681503.jpg|9783037681503|The Book of Drawings + Sketches - Architecture : Hardback : Braun Publishing AG : 9783037681503 : 28 Oct 2013 : After the success of Architectural Visions, with its focus on the German speaking countries, this volume is devoted to the individual handw ...|new|1|1|2|35|0|GBP|Chris van Uffelen|Braun Publishing AG|28 Oct 2013|Environmentally-friendly architecture & design 9783037681046|Airport Architecture|40.44|https://wordery.com/airport-architecture-chris-van-uffelen-9783037681046|Airports today are much more than gateways to cities, countries or continents. They have developed into city-like complexes and multifunctional systems. While being set up to serve the needs of smoothly running air traffic they have taken on all the functions of a normal community as well: sleeping, shopping, work and leisure time and all that increasingly with 24/7 access. After an era of purely functional architecture, the nodal points of air traffic have become one of the most prominent architectural tasks of the present. Drawing on 60 examples, this volume shows the exciting multiplicity of contemporary airport construction and design. The projects presented include the newest large scale airports, as well as long term building projects, smaller airports at more remote locations as well as expansions and individual new functional areas like air traffic control centers, hangars or lounges.|Books|https://wordery.com/jackets/892e291d/airport-architecture-chris-van-uffelen-9783037681046.jpg|9783037681046|Airport Architecture : Hardback : Braun Publishing AG : 9783037681046 : 16 Apr 2012 : Taking-off and landing in style|new|1|1|1|45|0|GBP|Chris van Uffelen|Braun Publishing AG|16 Apr 2012|Public buildings: civic, commercial, industria ... 9783037681992|Black + Architecture|24.23|https://wordery.com/black-architecture-sibylle-kramer-9783037681992|Physically, black is defined as an (almost) complete absorption of all frequencies of light; it describes the impression of color when visual stimuli are missing. In many cultural contexts of the past and present, this ?uncolored? color holds a special place: regardless of context, black is always met with great respect. This is also true for the current and intense interaction of architects and designers with this color. Black buildings seem majestic, filled with a special aura, and dominant, but they can also emphasize their surroundings precisely because of their lack of color. The projects presented in this volume show the great variety of approaches by the contemporary building culture to this fascinating physical and cultural phenomenon.|Books|https://wordery.com/jackets/91077aa5/black-architecture-sibylle-kramer-9783037681992.jpg|9783037681992|Black + Architecture : Hardback : Braun Publishing AG : 9783037681992 : 19 Oct 2015 : The Beauty of the Color Code 00|new|1|1|2|35|0|GBP|Sibylle Kramer|Braun Publishing AG|19 Oct 2015|Architectural structure & design 9783037681510|Green Design|26.34|https://wordery.com/green-design-dorian-lucas-9783037681510|Elegant, innovative or even extravagant design can hardly exist on its own today. The ecological and sustainable aspect of a product is the argument that clinches the sale ? especially where one is prepared to pay something more for design. That principal applies as well to the manufacture of products, for example those which are resource sparing, as well as their application, if they are low-emission and finally their disposal, if they are compostable. Green Design, Vol. 2"" shows the most varied strategies of environmentally compatible design. Especially notable is the recycling of unusual materials, fair production and fair trade, low-emission use and finally the principal of conversion instead of disposal."
