Trajectories in Architecture: Plan, Sensation, Temporality presents a compelling examination of underlying issues in late-twentieth-century architecture. Three formal preoccupations and conceptual orientations are used as guiding threads or trajectories. These three trajectories – the plan as conceptual device, a logic of sensation, and temporalities – serve to organise individual chapters in the central sections of the book and provide a new lens to the study of period work, revealing architectural conditions and consequent spatial effects little explored to date. Trajectories in Architecture adds to scholarship and expands our understanding of the role of conceptual and formal criteria in the analysis and creation of works of architecture. The book provides potentially transformative new interpretations of influential architects and key projects from the last half of the twentieth century to reveal new alignments and potentialities in architecture’s recent past as a contribution to identifying future possibilities. In so doing, the book argues for the still-latent potential in modern architecture’s traditions and design principles and their future expression. Trajectories in Architecture includes analysis of significant projects of Le Corbusier, Peter Eisenman, Zaha Hadid, John Hejduk, Louis I. Kahn, and I. M. Pei.
In every art and every discovery, experience has always preceded precepts. In the course of time, a method has been assigned to the practice of invention. Carlo Goldoni Edited Trajectories is an exploration into the immaterial components of architecture- time and space- in search of the architectonic event. This research is constructed around an exploration of little known, neglected and marginal spaces on the MIT campus. This trajectory was recorded and edited in the medium of digital video and subsequently mapped in relation to time and orthographic projections of space. The result is the isolation of three "spatial events"--Temporal interventions in videographic form that mediate between physical site (topography) and performance of site (trajectory) and which could serve as the foundation for architectural design. These interventions were achieved through graphic transcription and physical modeling and ultimately translated back into the medium of video. The goal of this research is to investigate the possibilities of video as a temporal and subjective method of space making.
Rethinking Building Skins: Transformative Technologies and Research Trajectories provides a comprehensive collection of the most relevant and forward-looking research in the field of façade design and construction today, with a focus on both product and process innovation. The book brings together the expertise, creativity, and critical thinking of more than fifty global innovators from both academia and industry, to guide the reader in translating research into practice. It identifies new opportunities for the construction sector to respond to present challenges, towards a more sustainable, efficient, connected, and safe future. Introduces the reader to the role of façades with respect to the main challenges ahead Provides an overview of the major façade technological advancements throughout history and identifies prospective research trajectories Includes interviews with key industry players from different backgrounds and expertise Showcases a comprehensive range of leading research topics in the field, organised by product and process innovation Covers major innovations across the value chain including façade design, fabrication, construction, operation and maintenance, and end-of-life Contributes towards the definition of an international research agenda and identifies emerging market opportunities for the façade industry
306090 04: Global Trajectories examines emerging pedagogies in design, technology, and ecology, cultivating and critically addressing the diverse yet intersecting threads of research being pursued by an emerging group of young architects from around the world, including Eye Design, Linda Samuels, Cameron Sinclair, Peter Perisic, and others, as well as commentary from Saskia Sassen, Michael Hardt, Reinhold Martin, David Hays, Nicholas de Monchaux, Stephano Boeri, Keller Easterling, and Neil Leach.
This book highlights the developments, discoveries, and practical and advanced experiences related to responsive distributed computing and how it can support the deployment of trajectory-based applications in smart systems. Smart Trajectories: Metamodeling, Reactive Architecture for Analytics and Smart Applications deals with the representation and manipulation of smart trajectories in various applications and scenarios. Presented in three parts, the book first discusses the foundation and principles for spatial information systems, complex event processing, and building a reactive architecture. Next, the book discusses modeling and architecture in relation to smart trajectory metamodeling, mining and big trajectory data, and clustering trajectories. The final section discusses advanced applications and trends in the field, including congestion trajectory analytics and real-time Big Data analytics in cloud ecosystems. Metamodeling, distributed architectures, reactive programming, Big Data analytics, NoSQL databases, connected objects, and edge-fog-cloud computing form the basis of the concepts and applications discussed. The book also presents a number of case studies to demonstrate smart trajectories related to spatiotemporal events such as traffic congestion and pedestrian accidents. This book is intended for graduate students in computer engineering, spatial databases, complex event processing, distributed systems, and geographical information systems (GIS). The book will also be useful for practicing traffic engineers, city managers, and environmental engineers interested in monitoring and security analysis.
The current trend for constructing experimental structures is now an international phenomenon. It has been taken up worldwide by design professionals, researchers, educators and students alike. There exist, however, distinct and significant tendencies within this development that require further investigation. This issue of AD takes on this task by examining one of the most promising trajectories in this area, the rise of intensely local architectures. In his seminal essay of 1983, Kenneth Frampton redefined Critical Regionalism by calling for an intensely local approach to architectural design. Today, Frampton’s legacy is regaining relevance for a specific body of work in practice and education focused on the construction of experimental structures. Could this ultimately provide the seeds for a compelling and alternative approach to sustainable design?
