This essential reference for all students of architecture,
design and the built environment provides a convenient single
source for all the key texts in the recent literature on
architecture and technology.
The book contains over fifty carefully selected essays,
manifestoes, reflections and theories by architects and
architectural writers from 1900 to 2004. This mapping out of a
century of architectural technology reveals the discipline's long
and close attention to the experience and effects of new
technologies, and provides a broad picture of the shift from the
'age of tools' to the 'age of systems'.
Chronological arrangement and cross-referencing of the articles
enable both a thematic and historically contextual understanding of
the topic and highlight important thematic connections across
time.
With the ever increasing pace of technological change, this
Reader presents a clear understanding of the context in which it
has and does affect architecture.
