Nanoarchitecture
John Johansen, now 85 years old, has been one of the preeminent architects in the United States for more than half a century. After studying under Walter Gropius (who became his father-in-law) at Harvard, he embarked on an extraordinary career marked by experimental domestic and public design. Since retiring from practice, Johansen has devoted himself to producing futuristic architecture that looks to the newest technologies science has to offer--from nanotechnology to magnetic levitation to material science--for its inspiration. Nanoarchitecture presents eleven of Johansen's most inspired visions. A floating conference center, an apartment building that sprouts from the earth and grows on i...

Light Architecture
The rapid development of Information Technology has also effected the layout and planning of our towns. Increasingly, physical structures are being covered with a veneer of visual-virtual light architecture which makes use of the new media to alter existing buildings and quarters, enriching and enhancing them. The townscape of tomorrow will become a huge, multilayered screen, which will draw the passers-by into an interactive electronic world. Gianni Ranaulo, born in 1957, is a practising architect, architectural critic and curator of exhibitions. He lives in France.

Polyhedra and Beyond
This volume collects papers based on talks given at the conference “Geometrias'19: Polyhedra and Beyond”, held in the Faculty of Sciences of the University of Porto between September 5-7, 2019 in Portugal. These papers explore the conference’s theme from an interdisciplinary standpoint, all the while emphasizing the relevance of polyhedral geometry in contemporary academic research and professional practice. They also investigate how this topic connects to mathematics, art, architecture, computer science, and the science of representation. Polyhedra and Beyond will help inspire scholars, researchers, professionals, and students of any of these disciplines to develop a more thorough understanding of polyhedra.
Archcube
This volume contains the results of a course of "Assisted architectural design" which experimented various innovative aspects of design teaching. At present the new frontier is represented by very complex computer tools and programmes that encompass all the previous techniques and propose new ones, which for the architect have become the major instrument for representative and expressive potential. The experience conducted has engaged the students not only in becoming acquainted with the most updated programmes of computer graphics, but above all in the development of this new technique of expression in close relation to a design experience.

It can also be a shock to the system to find that architectural working practices are very different to architectural study. This book provides a beginner's guide to professional practice and a step-by-step guide on how to find the placement that best suits your goals. It is the fourth title in the successful 'Seriously Useful Guides...' series. In order to give you a real insight into professional experience, this guide includes real life case studies from students who have been through the experience and from practices that have taken them on.
