Architecture Shapes (Preservation Press)

Foamboards

A senior editor at Progressive Architecture and an award-winning architectural photographer come together to present four colorful board books that introduce the built environment to preschoolers. Architecture Counts consists of numbers from 0-10 such as two brackets, three dormers, five arches and six ducts. Architecture Shapes explores shapes through the composition and arrangement of windows. Architecture Colors looks at the entire building as well as several details to suggest nine colors including a red barn, green roofs and a white church. Architecture Animals is an excursion into the deepest, wildest, architectural jungles around. Contains 14 animals in their native habitats–crawling across building facades, perched on top of a skyscraper or lounging at the ocean shore. Each full-color photograph is accompanied by a rhyme that provides hints of the animal’s location or history.

Rethinking Prototyping

Foamboards

Design modelling has benefited from computation but in most projects to date there is still a strong division between computational design and simulation leading up to construction and the completed building that is cut off from the computational design modelling. The Design Modelling Symposium Berlin 2013 would like to challenge the participants to reflect on the possibility of computational systems that bridge design phase and occupancy of buildings. This rethinking of the designed artifact beyond its physical has had profound effects on other industries already. How does it affect architecture and engineering? At the scale of engineering and building systems new perspectives may open up by engaging built form as a continuous prototype, which can track and respond during use and serve as a real world implementation of its design model. This has been tried many times from intelligent façades to smart homes and networked grids but much of it was only technology driven and not approached from a more holistic design perspective.

Flying Radio-Controlled Model Aircraft

Foamboards

Flying radio-controlled model aircraft is one of the most enjoyable and absorbing hobbies that there is. It combines the fun of building and maintaining a real miniature aircraft with the challenge of flying it just like the real thing, and keeping the appropriate distance between the aircraft and the ground at all times!  But the early stages of the hobby can be a steep learning curve, and it is all too easy to be put off by early mishaps. This book explains the principles of model flight in an easy-to-read text. It is a flight manual for any pilot of a fixed-wing model aircraft and includes details of internal combustion and electric-powered flight. It gives all the information required to become a successful pilot in the shortest possible time.
