Description

Building/Object addresses the space in between the conventional objects of design and the conventional objects of architecture, probing and reassessing the differences between the disciplines of design history and architectural history

Each of the 13 chapters in this book examine things which are neither object-like nor building-like, but somewhere in between air conditioning; bookshelves; partition walls; table-monuments; TVs; convenience stores; cars exposing particular political configurations and resonances that otherwise might be occluded. In doing so, they reveal that the definitions we make of objects in opposition to buildings, and of architecture in opposition to design, are not as fundamental as they seem.

This book brings new aspects of the creative and experiential into our understanding of the human environment.
