Architectural and Program Diagrams
"Diagrams are playing an increasingly important role in architecture and city planning. They help to make complex ideas, systems and relationships easy to visualize and help to communicate these, crossing linguistic and cultural barriers. Diagrams illustrate bold visions and unexpected approaches and are a key component for developing complex construction projects -- and they thus play their part in realizing these projects successfully. What is more, they don't just serve to provide information - they are also miniature, individually designed items that bear the signature of their creator. They are a new, inspiring art form"--Publisher description.
Archinesia 09
FUTURE OF THE PAST The historical events in the early centuries of the Srivijaya kingdom that ruled over Malay Archipelago and the arrival of colonising nations afterwards are examples of the region’s interlinked past. It forged a historic root for cooperation within the countries in the region now under ASEAN. Consideration about the region’s past record is what strongly tugged our editorial team’s thoughts. History—or we could say the “past”—inevitably constructs the present and, consequently, our future. As we asked some of the people in the architectural practice regarding the role of the past , many hold that the past is an important aspect that we could learn from to live...
Public Management in Korea
Many books on performance management or evaluation are about the public sector in general or specifically about some programs or organizations. Only a few of them target the public institutions. This book addresses what types of challenges that performance evaluations of public institutions actually face and how to overcome them through the analysis of Korea’s three-decade long experiences. This book provides detailed descriptions on how performance evaluations of public institutions have been implemented in Korea. At the same time, it provides comprehensive analyses on theoretical issues such as validity analysis performance measure, the dynamic change of efficiency of public institution, impact of price regulation on profits, and qualitative approaches for evaluating governance. Each chapter contains vivid theoretical debates and diverse views on performance evaluation and practical challenges, making the book a useful reference on managing and evaluating public institutions.
Food Wheel
The Food Wheel is an "urban activator" proposed to be developed as a butterfly building, a light and movable pavilion which may activate temporary public space around the concept of food. It was conceptualized as a response to challenges experienced in connecting food, people and place during the development of the MKTplace project. MKTplace is a community-driven prepared food market and public space project that serves to activate vacant space in underserved neighborhoods by providing inexpensive incubator space for vendors and a venue for community events, arts and culture. Urban Prototyping seeks to adapt a Fabrication Information Modeling into the design and build prototyping of urban interventions. Furthermore, we aim to explore the spatial and urban implications where the role of civic engagement will propose a new method of architectural practice. The goal is to create an associative and collaborative environment that empowers designers to develop integrated fabrication concepts for the public realm.
Architectural Diagrams
The trendsetting architect Rem Koolhaas has carried it out to perfection, whereas the next generation of international stars refined it even more, giving us the unconventional presentation of designs and ideas in the form of diagrams. This method of presentation is easy to understand when dealing with the client and can be communicated internationally, beyond language and cultural barriers - a product of our globalised world. However, diagrams are now much more than explanations and form their own discipline in creative professions connected to design and construction. What looks simple is in fact a complex matter. This title in the series Construction and Design Manual is in its second edition and assembles 384 pages of diagrams by avant-garde architects and designers who specialise in public space, landscape architecture and urban planning.

exlibris
Architects write a lot, especially now when conceptual aspects have become central in the advanced reflections and narrative forms increasingly intersect the quest of design practices far an ultimate legitimation. In the growing mass of the publishing offer, these keywords try to highlight recurrent issues, tracking synthetic paths of orientation between different critical positions, with particular attention to what happens in the neighbouring fields of the arts and sciences.
