Reading Architecture Second Edition

Autor Owen Hopkins
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 ian 2023
Dieses innovative und einzigartige Buch ist ein visueller Führer zu den Gebäuden, die uns umgeben. Die architektonischen Merkmale sind auf den Abbildungen der Gebäude genau angegeben und beschriftet, so dass Sie, anders als bei anderen Architekturlexika, den Namen nicht kennen müssen, bevor Sie ihn nachschlagen. Klare Strichzeichnungen und umfangreiche Farbfotografien veranschaulichen jeden der wichtigsten Gebäudetypen, von Festungen über Kirchen und Herrenhäuser bis hin zu Wolkenkratzern. Anschließend werden die einzelnen Strukturelemente und Materialien erläutert, die allen Gebäuden gemeinsam sind, ob im klassischen, gotischen oder modernen Stil. Ein umfassendes Glossar rundet das Buch ab. Diese überarbeitete Ausgabe enthält einen erweiterten Abschnitt über moderne Strukturen und Materialien sowie über die neuesten Stile und Konzepte der letzten zehn Jahre.
