Summary:
Packplay is a reflection on user-centred design. Nine schools offered students packaging projects that put users at the heart of the design process, reversing a flow that would typically start with production priorities. Understanding how users experience a brand, and product, helps determine the success of packaging. Broad guidelines allowed the addition of other topics(...)

Summary:
Together with the first volume, Design Techniques, this second volume of the “SOLID” series, published in collaboration with Harvard GSD Department of Architecture, represents two approaches to the same question: how is the architectural project constructed? Architects today act upon organizations or systems that are social assemblies, sequences in time, or spatial networks. Yet these structures act upon architects as well. Is design reducible to organization, or vice versa? Faculty, critics and theorists, and students discuss various approaches and contribute personal experiences, working practices, and opportunities encountered in the field of design.

Basics Loadbearing Systems bridges the fields of architecture and civil engineering and explains the fundamentals of loadbearing structure theory simply, comprehensibly and choronologically. To help general understanding, the author first explains the loads and forces occuring in a building using examples and simple contexts. He introduces typical loadbearing structural elements and shows loadbearing systems and structures for the different building types that planners can use for their designs. The compact knowledge conveyed here makes it possible for students to work with loadbearing structures in an integrated way, and thus be able to design creatively.

In this seminal work, Arnheim, author of ''The Dynamics of Architectural Form'', ''Film as Art'', ''Toward a Psychology of Art'', and ''Art and Visual Perception'', asserts that all thinking (not just thinking related to art) is basically perceptual in nature, and that the ancient dichotomy between seeing and thinking, between perceiving and reasoning, is false and misleading. An indis-pensable tool for students and for those interested in the arts.

“Architecture and Action” focuses on the agency of architects and architecture within the overlapping spheres of the institution, the discipline, and the profession. Through a presentation of projects and texts, the book reveals how students and faculty—whether architects, artists, historians, technologists, or scientists—define action, considering its possible forms, procedures, and scales, as well as its potency and limits. The selected work exemplifies the wide range of approaches and zones of intervention, bringing together projects that find space for action while questioning assumptions about where architectural value is located.
