"Food and Architecture "is the first book to explore, interrogate
and illuminate the reciprocity between these two distinct fields of
study and practice. Both disciplines rely on a combination of
intuition, inventiveness, even wonder, but until recently have
seldom come into dialogue with one another. Bringing together
leading voices to provide an authoritative, cross-disciplinary
exploration of the reciprocity between eating and building, this
volume demonstrates how the fields of food studies and architecture
can learn from each other. Each section focuses on a core area
where food and architecture overlap - Regionalism, Sustainability,
Craft and Authenticity - using these to introduce a variety of case
studies exploring these themes. Covering topics ranging from pig
slaughtering and farmhouses in Greece, to the possibility of an
authentic American Cuisine, contributors employ a range of vantage
points and methodologies, such as practice-based research, literary
analysis, memoir, and voice narrative. Each section is concluded
with a commentary, drawing out key themes and connections between
chapters.This lively and compelling book will be invaluable reading
for food studies and architecture students and will appeal to
practicing architects and chefs. ""
