Louis I. Kahn
This book owes its concept to the transparency of the work process of Louis I. Kahn, whose ideas are preserved in the wealth of sketches he did whenever developing new concepts or working out details for new building projects. Sketches and plans of different developmental stages of his projects are laid out in a basically chronological order and these are complemented by relevant extracts from his writings and speeches and by his commentary while this documentation was being prepared in 1973 - the year before his death. As in the first edition, the authors` aim has not been to interpret or evaluate. Rather, they wish to provide the scholar with a solid base for further research, allowing him to follow the traces of a remarkably creative mind that revered architecture as a manifestation of man´s spirit. -

建筑学教程:设计原理
赫曼·赫茨伯格(Herman Hertzberger)的建筑作品在世界范围内受到广泛的青睐。在这本根据1973年以来赫茨伯格在代尔夫特科技大学(Delft University of Technology)授课内容编写的专著中,建筑师把本人的设计作品和构思时的设计理念用文字的形式进行了表述。本书涵盖广泛的主题和众多的项目,汇集了大量的实践经验和对建筑物用途的评价。该书1991年在荷兰初版以来,多次再版,并已在德国、意大利、葡萄牙、日本,以及中国台湾等国家和地区出版。 在世界建筑中,科技的进步推动了建筑的发展。通常科学、技术创造了惊人的成就,也成为人们最关心的因素。今天建筑业成了万物发展的晴雨表,从中很容易看到人们的需求是什么。另一方面,我们仍在追求一种建筑——一种不受地域或时间限制的建筑,从而不断地影响着人们的家庭生活工作,使之丰富多彩。《建筑学教程:设计原理》一书追溯了人们最基本的生活环境。然而面对建筑承担的大量责任,这种“回归本体的建筑”却总是太容易被人们忽视。每一次,我们的目标都是创造一个令人满意的环境,即适于人们使用的、舒适的环境,使人产生宾至如归的感觉。 -
林徽因建筑文萃
林徽因,我国二十世纪第一位杰出的女建筑学家和作家,曾被胡适誉为“第一代才女”。她和丈夫梁思成,坐骡车、住小店,踏遍全国近二百个县,寻访荒寺古庙,探索古代建筑的营造法式,写出这本建筑美文。本书内容融建筑理论、美学思想与一体,专业而不死版,凸现林徽因的敏捷的逻辑思维,宛若一场建筑美学欣赏的盛宴。本书配有若干插图,均是书中提到的曾经采访、考察而到过的地方的现状,给读者以可追寻的契机。
