Trajectories in Architecture: Plan, Sensation, Temporality presents
a compelling examination of underlying issues in late twentieth
century architecture. Three formal preoccupations and conceptual
orientations are used as guiding threads or trajectories. These
three trajectories - the plan as conceptual device, a logic of
sensation, and temporalities - serve to organise individual
chapters in the central sections of the book and provide a new lens
to the study of period work, revealing architectural conditions and
consequent spatial effects little explored to date. Trajectories in
Architecture adds to scholarship and expands our understanding of
the role of conceptual and formal criteria in the analysis and
creation of works of architecture. The book provides potentially
transformative new interpretations of influential architects and
key projects from the last half of the twentieth century to reveal
new alignments and potentialities in architecture's recent past as
a contribution to identifying future possibilities. In so doing the
book argues for the still latent potential in modern architecture's
traditions and design principles and their future expression.
Trajectories in Architecture includes analysis of significant
projects of Le Corbusier, Peter Eisenman, Zaha Hadid, John Hejduk,
Louis I. Kahn, and I. M. Pei.
