Elements of Architecture

by Rem Koolhaas   The book "Elements of Architecture" delves into the intricate components of the architectural mosaic, exploring elements such as windows, façades, balconies, corridors, fireplaces, stairs, escalators, and elevators. This exploration aims to uncover the nuanced stories behind these building details. Rather than presenting a singular narrative, it unravels a complex web of origins, influences, resemblances, and disparities in architectural development. This includes technological progress's impact, climate adaptation, political considerations, economic conditions, regulatory standards, and emerging digital possibilities. Used Copy – Good Condition
