Maori Architecture and the Use of Colour. (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

In this concise eBook, I delve into the realm of colour and Maori architectural design. This publication is a valuable resource for anyone interested in global architecture. It delves into the foundational Maori cultural colour palette and explores the associated shapes, forms, and patterns. Moreover, this eBook is a comparative tool for examining indigenous cultural designs of Maori culture. For instance, it offers insights - as a comparative tool - to analyse Pasifika and Australian Aboriginal cultures and more.

This eBook is directly relevant to the modern Design and Visual Communication (DVC) curriculum, specifically tailored to New Zealand NCEA Level 1 in 2024. It is a versatile tool that can be applied to both product and spatial (architectural) design. The exploration and identification of cultural colours for use in building and product design offer a robust foundation for creating unique and distinctive designs.

Please note that I have created several resources on Maori Culture and architecture. I have researched and summed up in-depth modern contemporary Maori architectural design. If you are an architect, designer, artist, or scholar, these resources are invaluable to extend your knowledge of Maori Culture and design. Search: William Van Zyl.

Autorenporträt

The author had an interesting and unique childhood. Not travelling abroad - as you would expect - but venturing into the fields, bushes, tools sheds and mysterious underground tunnels around his neighbourhood. His happy place was - and still is - tinkering with ideas, science, and new possibilities. Many times while cycling he will get new ideas; he brings the unexpected, the unique, the creative in a flurry on a page or in a sketch. To this day he dreams of vicious wars and sophisticated weaponry in an innocent child's scout cave. He loves diagrams, timelines, cross sections, sketches, and details of sinister and hidden concepts and ideas; always looking for a new mystery to decode and to encode. He investigates and explores extravagant thoughts which he includes in children's books, stories and articles; he loves to include philosopher's perspectives, articles, intriguing stories, and poetry in his writing. Academic and research work are also his forte. He always offers a simple but practical explanation within an engaging context. Not your ordinary thinker! A lifelong scholar and teacher.
