Architecture and field/work - Info and Reading Options

The Open Library:

Positioned at a point of interchange between the disciplines of architecture and anthropology, this book is the first to identify and to critique key terms, techniques, methodologies and habits comprising our understanding of fieldwork in architecture. In the wider context of interdisciplinary spatial practice, this book explores the potential of the term 'field' and offers insight into how future research in architectural design and other practice-led disciplines might make productive links between academia and design professions. -- Essays by established and emerging international scholars are arranged into three parts introduced by the editors, which move from practices to site to techniques, and are interspersed with field notes by experienced voices: Andrea Kahn (New York), Alan Dein (London) and Can Altay (Istanbul) with an afterword by Jan Rendell (London). -- For students, academics and reflective practitioners in architecture, art history, theory, landscape and urbanism, this book offers a reassessment of methodologies, forms of aesthetic production and creative activity in architectural design, theory and practice. -- Suzanne Ewing is an architect and academic who teaches architectural design at the University of Edinburgh. She is a partner at zone architects and contributes to public discourse on design in the UK and Europe through workshops, exhibitions and publication. -- JTrTmie Michael McGowan is an artist, designer and academic who has taught and exhibited in the UK, United States and Finland. -- Victoria Clare Bernie is an artist and academic who teaches architecture at the University of Edinburgh. --Book Jacket.
