Book Description

156898734X 978-1568987347 January 3, 2008 1st
Models are an essential component of the architect's design process. As tools of translation, models assist the exploration of the possible and illustrate the actual. While models have traditionally served as representational and structural studies, they are increasingly being used to suggest and solve new spatial and structural configurations. Models, the eleventh volume of the highly regarded journal 306090, explores the role of the architectural model today in relation to the idea, the diagram, the technique, and the material. Models includes contributions from engineers, scientists, poets, painters, photographers, historians, urbanists, and architects both young and experienced.

2.0 out of 5 stars deceiving, September 13, 2008
By

This review is from: Models: 306090 Books, Vol. 11 (Paperback)
At the first glance an interesting book, particularly when looking into some significant work and thoughts on the topic 'models'. The presentations have a wide range and are truly interdisciplinary, but the publication in the end is more about the looks than the content, a curatorial flaw.

4.0 out of 5 stars read models: mash-arkt, April 16, 2008
This review is from: Models: 306090 Books, Vol. 11 (Paperback)
The latest 306090 is a good read and comprehensive review of the research that has been going on in leading architectural schools over the past few years. Though academic at the dawn of the 21st century, it will be most interesting to see the ideas portrayed in this volume develop into the built environments of later decades.
