Design Innovation for the Built Environment

Research by Design and the Renovation of Practice
Herausgeber: Hensel, Michael

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Worldwide it is becoming increasingly clear that different modes of research are emerging that are triggered more or less directly by the need to renovate architectural practice. One significant prevailing mode is what has come to be known as 'research by design'. This book delivers an overview of this domain. Bringing together a range of leading architects, architectural theorists, and designers, the book presents a diversity of specific approaches that serve to provide alternative modes and methods for dealing with increasingly complex design problems and questions in the service of improving the built environment.
