Description

Architecture Timed: Designing with Time in Mind By Karen A. Franck The way architects and designers approach time is changing. No longer seeking permanence, they're embracing the creative potential of time to inform their work. This shift is reflected in new approaches to historic preservation, temporary structures, sustainability concerns, and time-efficient processes. Contributors explore how to incorporate the new into the old, the benefits of designing for short-term goals, and ways to reuse what's temporary. They also examine how design can improve sustainability and enhance our experiences of time passing. This book presents a nuanced perspective on time, treating it as a source of inspiration rather than something to be defended against. Featuring contributions from leading designers and architects, Architecture Timed offers a fresh understanding of the role of ideas about time in contemporary design.
