Product Details
Overview
Reading Architecture shows that imagining people's lives is more important for architects than imagining spaces. Reading stories about lives lived in buildings, places, and cities is the best way to learn how to imagine. These eighteen new essays from contributors in nine countries on three continents talk about how novels and poems can help you think about architecture, urban spaces, research, and practice. Stories discussed include those by Dinos Christianopoulos, E.M. Forster, Zia Haider Rahman, Knut Hamsun, Nguyên Huy Thiêp, Laslo Krasznahorkai, Chung-hee Moon, Haruki Murakami, Fernando Pessoa, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, and W.G. Sebald, among others. Includes 40 black and white images.
