Summary:
Metals, as surface or structure as the generators of space play a role in nearly every strain of modernization in architecture. They define complete geographies of work, production, and political life. Non-architectural metals delivered in automobiles, and hard goods in the United States and worldwide have all been sourced as the engines of the sprawling late(...)

Summary:
Metals, as surface or structure as the generators of space play a role in nearly every strain of modernization in architecture. They define complete geographies of work, production, and political life. Non-architectural metals delivered in automobiles, and hard goods in the United States and worldwide have all been sourced as the engines of the sprawling late twentieth-century city in all of its forms. Post-Ductility refers to the literal aspects of material behavior in this case of metals but also of aspects of architectural and urban space that are measured by less verifiable but nonetheless real quotients of stress and strain. It is the tension and compression of space that gives form or coherence to form.

A chacun correspond une atmosphère particulière. On peut ainsi choisir une ambiance zen, chaleureuse, contemporaine ou futuriste, et la souligner grâce à l'emploi des matières appropriées, pour la structure comme pour la décoration. Si le béton évoque la modernité, le verre permet de créer transparences et sensations d'espace, le bois apporte chaleur et noblesse, dans un esprit classique ou actuel. Plus originaux, les bottes de paille et le bambou produisent des effets sensationnels.

Summary:
Today the excitement in architecture derives from the tension between the need for privacy and the impulse toward community. This survey of buildings and interiors captures the multilayered experience that is engaged whenever we look out of—or into—a work of architecture. Immaterial World examines the built environment as a reflection of the terrors and pleasures of exposure, information overload, and abundance of every sort. Twenty-five projects from around the world by such well-known architects as Diller Scofidio + Renfro, Morphosis, Christian de Portzamparc, Renzo Piano, and many others, are presented. These works range from complete transparency to bunkerlike opacity, depending upon who’s doing the looking and who or what is being seen.

Summary:
As in architecture, fashion creates a second skin that can adapt to the human body. Depending on its programming, the skin changes. In terms of spatial organization, we can learn many things from techniques that are used by fashion designers. The book contains many visuals of the form studies between fashion, textiles, space, and architecture.
