Adventures in ARCHITECTURE

av Dan Cruickshank

Inbunden bok. George Weidenfeld & Nicholson. 2008. 288 sidor.

Nyskick. Skyddsomslag i nära nyskick. –– NYSKICK, verkar oläst! – Obet. kantmärken på skyddsomslaget. – Se fler bilder! –– Dan takes us to the buildings he believes have changed the world, revealing how in truly great buildings function, material and purpose connect to all other parts of life - showing how architecture is the richest and most compelx of man's artistic endeavours. Do his chosen buildings live up to expectation, or does he find disappointment and lost ideals? • Architecture is an art, a science and a craft. But buildings also have to fulfil a function, cater for human use, withstand the forces of nature, and be built to a budget. Dan considers all these aspects as he looks at places, some well known, many less so, as varied as the Catherine Palace in St Petersburg, the Minaret of Jam in Afghanistan, the Hanging Temple in Shanxi in China, Astana in Kazakhstan, Brasilia, Neuschwanstein Castle in Bavaria, the Lupanare Brothels in Pompeii, and the building of an igloo, man's earliest exercise in the creation of shelter, in Greenland. / "I found it easy to read and understand. Dan has a unique way of making the subject easy for the common man to understand without talking down to us. His choice of buildings you'll may find surprising but once you've read his explanation of way they are included it will make sense... for me there are enough photos with each chapter... This book will take you to interesting places around the world read one chapter, ponder on it for a while before going on to the next. this book helps you travel in your mind, it (like a previous reviewer said), makes me want to travel to these places to see them for myself. This book should put you in the golden state of mind...."
