Architecture for Humanity Book : amazon - external link Under The Edge : The Architecture of Peter Stutchbury - 29 Apr 2012 photo : Lindsay Johnston Book by Peter Stutchbury The architecture of the Edge, architecture of the Asia Pacific Antipodes, may be a counter-proposition to the mainstream architecture of the developed world. In order to understand one’s self, it is illuminating to attempt to understand the opposite, and it is for this reason that the architecture, particularly of Australia, the biggest land-mass in the Antipodes, now attracts international interest. The Cultural Role of Architecture - 2012 Contemporary and Historical Perspectives Edited by Paul Emmons, Jane Lomholt, John Hendrix Published February 6th 2012 by Routledge - 228 pages photograph from an editor The Cultural Role of Architecture - external link Exploring the ambiguities of how we define the word ‘culture’ in our global society, this book identifies its imprint on architectural ideas. It examines the historical role of the cultural in architectural production and expression, looking at meaning and communication, tracing the formations of cultural identities. Chapters written by international academics in history, theory and philosophy of architecture, examine how different modes of representation throughout history have drawn profound meanings from cultural practices and beliefs. These are as diverse as the designs they inspire and include religious, mythic, poetic, political, and philosophical references.

'Fluid Structures - Adventures in Engineering' By David Crookes photo from Fluid Structures Foreword by Ken Shuttleworth 248 pages, colour, hardback Publisher: Watermark Publications Brief Review by Adrian Welch, e-architect editor: Adventures is a good word to have in a title and the book matches the title, full of personality, sprinkled with comments about Clients, architects and so on that bring the book to life. I recognise many of these inventive designs but wasn’t aware of many of the smaller, private projects. Fluid Structures have been involved with a wide range of architects from Claudio Slivestrin to Simon Conder. Projects include an aluminium feature staircase, glass canopies, houses, and a new minimalist art gallery perched on a roof. Permeating the work is a desire to push the design using inventive and elegant solutions. The books is divided up by material: aluminium, glass, masonry, steel and timber.
