Description: Fundamental Concepts of Architecture : The Vocabulary of Spatial Situations, Paperback by Janson, Alban; Tigges, Florian, ISBN 3034612613, ISBN-13 9783034612616, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Architecture is an experience &; with the intellect and with all our senses, in motion, and in use. But in order to actually discuss and assess it with relevance, a clarification of terms is essential in order to avoid the vagueness that often prevails when talking about architecture. This dictionary provides a vocabulary that allows the architecture discourse to go beyond the declaration of constructive relationships or the description of architectonic forms in familiar terms like &;roof,&; &;base,&; &;wall,&; and &;axis&; or &;proportion&;. The point is to describe the experience of architecture: how exactly does it contribute to the experience of a situation? For instance, the staging of an entrance situation, or the layout and visitor routes through a museum. From &;context,&; through &;guidance,&; &;readability,&; &;patina,&; &;spatial structure,&; &;symmetry&; and &;tectonics,&; to &;width&; (and &;narrowness&;) or &;window,&; the most important terms in architectural language are explained precisely and in detail.
