Each architectural design is a new history. To identify what is
novel or innovative, we need to consider the present, past and
future. We expect historical narratives to be written in words, but
they can also be delineated in drawing, cast in concrete or seeded
in soil. The aim of this volume is to understand each design as a
visible and physical history. Historical understanding is
investigated as a stimulus to the creative process, highlighting
how architects learn from each other and other disciplines. This
encourages us to consider the stories about history that architects
fabricate. An eminent set of international contributors reflect on
the relevance of historical insight for contemporary design,
drawing on the rich visual output of innovative studios worldwide
in practice and education. Wide ranging and thought-provoking
articles encompass fact, fiction, memory, time, etymology,
civilisation, racial segregation and more. Features: Elizabeth Dow,
Pezo von Ellrichshausen, Terunobu Fujimori, Perry Kulper, Lesley
Lokko, Yeoryia Manolopoulou, Niall McLaughlin, Aisling O'Carroll,
Arinjoy Sen, Amin Taha and Sumayya Vally.
