Residential Architecture as Infrastructure: Open Building in Practice: Open Building
Editat de Stephen H. Kendallen Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 noi 2021
Countless residential Open Building projects have been built in a number of countries, some without knowledge of the original theory and methods. These projects differ in architectural style, building industry methods, economic system and social aims. National building standards and guidelines have been promulgated in several countries (Finland, China, Japan, Korea), providing incentives and guidance to Open Building implementation. Businesses in several countries have begun to deliver advanced FIT-OUT systems both for new construction and for retrofitting existing buildings, demonstrating the economic advantages of ‘the responsive, independent dwelling.’ This book also argues that the ‘open building’ approach is essential for the reactivation of the existing building stock for long-term value, because in the end it costs less.
The book discusses these developments in residential architecture from the perspective of an infrastructure model of built environment. This model enables decision-makers to manage risk and uncertainty, while avoiding a number of problems often associated with large, fast-moving projects, such as separation and distribution of design tasks (and responsibility) and the ensuing boundary frictions.
Residential Architecture as Infrastructure adds to the Routledge Open Building Series, and will appeal to architects, urban designers, researchers and policy-makers interested in this international review of current projects, policies and business activities focused on Open Building implementation.

Notă biografică
Stephen H. Kendall, Ph.D., R.A. is Emeritus Professor of Architecture at Ball State University and co-founder and vice president of the Council on Open Building. Dr. Kendall’s career in architectural practice, research and education spans more than 40 years. His research focuses on the Open Building approach needed to make buildings more adaptable, easier to customize to meet changing preferences and thus more sustainable. His work recognizes the increasing size and complexity of projects and the dynamics of living environments, the workplace and the marketplace where design must go beyond short-term uses and where control is distributed not only during initial planning but also over time.
Recenzii
"The book gives a comprehensive and up-dated international overview of the current state of affairs in Open Building. This is very useful for professionals interested in the subject. The angle of attack (open building) is unusual on many important topics. And that makes it even more interesting for professionals, especially architects, that are not familiar with this philosophy. At the same time, it also makes it clear how difficult it is to change our ingrained habits that we love so much. Indeed, we are still too much connected with short term thinking that forms the basis for the conventional approach and functionalism in architecture. The book offers important theories that go far beyond the usual literature on architecture that only deals with projects and practical decisions."
