Description
Architects on Dwelling explores how the places we live in shape our well-being and the social responsibility architects have in creating the built environment. This book delves into the design process, revealing the unique values and qualities that inform an architect's approach. Through contributions from Scotland-based practitioners and teachers at The Glasgow School of Art, this collection of essays focuses on one exemplary building, explaining how and why they design in a particular way. Complemented with images, these essays illuminate the architects' motivations and inspirations, as well as their featured works. By examining the relationship between architecture and our daily lives, Architects on Dwelling highlights the importance of creating dwellings that not only reflect individual tastes but also contribute to a broader social context.
