Modern architecture is becoming extremely complicated and its research has been produced more challenging by changes popular and a proliferation of design settings. In this reserve, Geoffrey Baker evolves a methodology for style evaluation that reveals the underlying organisation of structures. Component Two demonstrates the analytical methodology by mention of cities and functions by contemporary masters such as for example Aalto, Meier and Stirling.
Component One explains the type and part of architecture in a wide-ranging conversation extending from geometry to symbolism. The dialogue compares Futurism, Constructivism, Suprematism, HI-TECH, Deconstruction and the attitude of the avant-garde, with the phenomenology of Bachelard and Heiddeger.
In this second revised edition, Dr Baker provides added a chapter outlining the partnership between some current perceptions of technology, artwork and philosophy, and how these impinge on architecture.
