Synopsis
Re-inventing Construction goes off the beaten track of the building-as-usual, revealing a staggering potential of available alternatives in construction techniques, building materials, building typologies, programming techniques and development models. In doing so the book both introduces actual new inventions from current research as well as old inventions from the rich history of construction, which have either been forgotten or consciously ignored in the name of industrial progress. In order to re-invent construction, thus the message of the book, we need to both discover its unknown future and excavate its forgotten past.
