1000 Living Details
The design of the objects that fill a home is a combination of variables such as size, style, mechanics, textures, and materials. Whether practical or just beautiful to behold, these products are designed to satisfy daily needs, and ultimately define the quality and style of life of a home's occupants. This book features objects with images of their design process, from initial sketches on paper or computer renderings to the final product with its functions.
Sketch
Public buildings are constructions designed to provide specific services to a population. They have a very important social, political and cultural value and their architecture should represent these values, too. In architecture, a sketch is considered to be a drawing that describes a diagram of a project to be built. What adds importance to architectural sketches is the relationship established between drawing and architecture. Architects use sketches as a tool for approaching their projects, to begin to give shape to the image they have in their heads. But whatever the material and support used, the aim is always to record the most significant features of each building. This volume not only demonstrates the importance of the sketch as a work of art and idea in itself, but also shows the creative process to the end result. The following pages explore the phase that begins with the sketch, goes on to include models and renderings and eventually reaches the final plans.
Faith
What makes a construction holy ? Why has mankind been raising buildings to honor gods since ancient times ? Answering these questions would require various volumes and the participation of anthropologiste, theologians and historians - and even then many questions would probably still need to be settled. Spiritual architecture, like music, images and prayers, contributes to providing another dimension to the religious experience, to finding peace or a moral path. When religious buildings distance themselves from traditional dogmatic structures, offering free spaces for the interpretation of spiritual affairs, they can become modern and open places that promote dialogue and understanding among believers. This is forcing architecte to rethink the uses and functions of new churches and temples and to bear in mind the social changes related with different sects. In this volume we present diverse buildings, including small chapels, large temples where different cuits can meet and mediation spaces, which are ail places for worship and reflection and which also help shore up the concepts of community and group.
