Название: Re: Crafted, Interpretations of Craft in Contemporary Architecture and Interiors ISBN: 1580932762 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781580932769 Издательство: Random House (USA) Рейтинг: Цена: 30650.00 T Наличие на складе: Нет в наличии. Описание: Now more than ever, architects and designers are crossing aesthetic borders, and redefining craft to suit their own creative needs, philosophies, and expectations often by commenting upon or challenging it. By transforming our notions of what might be considered crafted, today's practitioners have not only put a new spin on an ancient art; they have expanded our understanding of where and how the personal touch is found in the sometimes bewildering or inhospitable terrain of the contemporary aesthetic landscape. Featuring twenty-five residential, commercial, and institutional projects by major international design figures as well as the relatively unknown and up-and-coming this volume looks at what constitutes the craft influence in contemporary architecture and design.
By turns luxurious and simple; time-honored and leading-edge; small-scale and monumental; unabashedly beautiful, surprisingly witty, socially adroit, and sublimely poetic, these projects are sure to give us a new appreciation of the pleasures of making and enlarge and enrich our understanding of the presence, and importance, of craft in all our lives.

Автор: Ashley Craig, Rebecca Guest Название: Adversity after the Crash: The Physical, Psychological and Social Burden of Motor Vehicle Crashes ISBN: 1536145637 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781536145632 Издательство: Nova Science Рейтинг: Цена: 215410.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: The World Health Organization recognizes that motor vehicle crashes and their impacts have become a serious public health crisis, with injury rates expected to escalate globally over the next 30 years. This is not surprising as adversity associated with the traumatic experience of a motor vehicle crash in which one could have died can be overwhelming. The risk of developing a major psychological disorder like depression and/or post-traumatic stress disorder is high, and distress will become substantially intensified if one also sustains physical injury, which can range from a mild injury such as soft tissue damage or concussion, to a severe injury such as spinal cord injury or severe traumatic brain injury. However, the degree of injury severity does not predict the degree of distress and adversity experienced very well. Evidence also suggests that entering a compensation process as a result of injuries can add to the distress experienced. Adversity can include personal suffering (e.g., pain, disability, trauma), financial hardship (e.g., loss of income/employment), social isolation, relationship stress, and a possible extended involvement in an adversarial claims/medical process. Adversity after the Crash: The Physical, Psychological and Social Burden of Motor Vehicle Crashes is the first scholarly book for some time to address a broad range of issues arising from a motor vehicle crash, and the authors are all internationally recognised experts in their respective fields. The book contains four sections, in which topics like types of physical injuries most commonly suffered, epidemiology, economic outcomes, return to work, compensation factors, whiplash, mental health outcomes, pain management, as well as innovative interventions designed to decrease the burden associated with motor vehicle crashes are discussed. This book is a must-read for people involved in researching motor vehicle crash outcomes and recovery, as well as for those providing clinical services to people who have been involved in a motor vehicle crash. Survivors of a motor vehicle crash would also benefit from a clearer understanding of the dynamics involved in recovering from such a traumatic experience.
Автор: Cragoe Carol Davidson Название: How to Read Buildings: A Crash Course in Architectural Styles ISBN: 0847831124 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780847831128 Издательство: Rizzoli Цена: 17430.00 T Наличие на складе: Нет в наличии. Описание: This practical primer is a handbook for decoding a building's style, history, and evolution. Every building contains clues embedded in its design that identify not only its architectural style but also the story of who designed it, who it was built for, and why. Organized by architectural element (roofs, doors, windows, columns, domes, towers, arches, etc.), the book is roughly chronological within each section, examining the elements across history, through different architectural styles, and by geographical distribution.
Additional chapters offer overviews of how architecture has been affected by geography, history, and religion, along with an illustrated timeline of architectural elements. Also included is a chapter on applied ornament and a handy introduction to naming each part of a building. All entries are accompanied by examples in the forms of period engravings, line drawings, and pictures.
The extended captions make the book invaluable for anyone who has ever pondered the meaning or importance of a hipped roof, rounded doorway, or classical pediment.
