Design Research in Architecture
What is the role of design research in the types of insight and knowledge that architects create? That is the central question raised by this book. It acts as the introductory overview for Ashgate’s major new series, ’Design Research in Architecture’ which has been created in order to establish a firm basis for this emerging field of investigation within architecture. While there have been numerous architects-scholars since the Renaissance who have relied upon the interplay of drawings, models, textual analysis, intellectual ideas and cultural insights to scrutinise the discipline, nonetheless, until recently, there has been a reluctance within architectural culture to acknowledge and ...
Cumberland Heights
Be still and know that I am God. Psalm 46:10. God speaks to us in unique ways. As you spend time seeking the Lord in prayer He will give you wisdom and direction for your life. He will speak words of comfort and encouragement to your heart. As you spend time in His presence, your faith will be strengthened, and you will find peace and rest for your soul.
Weather Eyes
'Seasoned poets Jean McArthur and Linda M. Walker have captured the earthy and the ethereal. Keen observers of people, of moods past and present, they have splayed their poems to weave a strong poetic narrative, where "stories patch/together bits and pieces". Through highly-charged language and rich imagery Weather Eyes takes us on a journey to vivid album moments, of memories dark and light. Some scenes are blurry, others midday bright, or hazily surreal. Weather Eyes sparkles with originality, with fresh metaphor. Join two masters of their craft as they travel, feel, think, and imagine, distilling the intangible into words...from complex relationships of ash and anger to that great balancer of humanity, the positive power of the natural world. Trust McArthur and Walker's Weather Eyes to show you "patterns of the past and blue velvet tropic nights...old coats and worn shoes and a blue morning light on the sparrows bathing".' - Jude Aquilina
Writing Spaces
Drawing from a variety of disciplines and theoretical frameworks, we examine space and its influence on writing practice. Practitioners explore the effect of space on their own writing, while others focus on understanding how famous writers lived and worked, and how they used space in their stories.
Theorising the Project
Theorising the Project aims to explore a thematic approach to architectural design. It conceptualises the design process in a general sense through seven key phases: developing a thematic framework and a line of inquiry to situate the project; investigating the project brief and mapping the project site to unravel potential themes and questions; situating technology as a formative condition for design; analysing precedents from the arts, literature and architecture to elaborate implications for design and considering representation as equally constitutive of the design undertaking. Key themes which are unpacked using extensive etymologies and metaphorical associations include theory, mapping...
Innovation and Tradition
Knowledge economy policies typically seek to harness higher education to economic outcomes. Tensions between the arts and humanities and the commercial imperatives of the knowledge economy are growing. This book explores how these tensions are played out within international and national higher education policies, within university arts and humanities departments and within the process of writing itself. Essays in this collection investigate the impact of the knowledge economy phenomenon on the arts and humanities and suggest both practical and creative ways of responding to this global policy environment. This book is relevant to scholars who are re-thinking the theory and practice of the arts and humanities within the context of globalization, information technology and entrepreneurship. It will interest students and academics whose courses engage with notions of «the commodity», «knowledge», and «creativity» within the fields of cultural and media studies, education and sociology. It will be of particular interest to academics and postgraduates researching contemporary higher education policy, cultural policy and research policy.
