Synopsis
The main outstanding feature is the clear and structured way, with diagrams, physical model photos and descriptive text, with which the book explains how to compose architectural and interior design spaces step by step. It also focuses and explains how to use contemporary architectural techniques such as folding surfaces or curve manipulation - that are now found in a number of built or academic projects globally- from the first years of architecture and interior design studies. What is particularly interesting is that there currently are no architecture or interior design books that actually show how to compose space.
The book demonstrates different methods that can also eventually be combined (such as combing a “Fold” with “Curves”) in order to form space with greater complexity and qualities, once the students follow the examples of each chapter.
Another characteristic is that this basic knowledge book will also help students that are interested in exploring digital and parametric design methods in the future of their studies will get exposed to a design thinking of transformations and iterations (which is the base of digital and parametric design thinking) without having to learn any software, since all the examples illustrated are using handmade physical models.

Paperback. Condition: New. Composing Architecture and Interior Design introduces different ways of creating architectural space. It explains how to compose architectural and interior design spaces step by step - starting in the first years of architecture and interior design studies. The book starts with introducing different spatial configurations using basic elements such as walls, floors and ceilings in order to create spaces with different architectural characteristics, such as collective or transition spaces. Photos of physical models are graphically edited to ensure a comprehensive visual explanation. Physical models are the main tool for all architecture and interior architecture students, allowing readers to understand, relate to and copy the modelling techniques shown in each example. Throughout the book this same approach is used, in order to explain step by step the most contemporary approaches to composing space, such as folding surfaces or combining curves. Which are already often used in contemporary practices and are globally acknowledged. Seller Inventory # LU-9789063694876
