New Organic Architecture: The Breaking Wave
New Organic Architecture: The Breaking Wave

Manifesto for eco-conscious, harmonious architectural design.

If you're passionate about sustainability and architecture, "New Organic Architecture: The Breaking Wave" might resonate with you. It isn't just about structures; it offers a philosophical approach that blends aesthetics with environmental stewardship. It's a deep dive into a design philosophy that cherishes our connection to the natural world. As you turn the pages, you'll explore a vision that could fundamentally shift how you perceive the built environment.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Organic architecture is a living tradition taking new and exciting directions. This book tells the story of a flowing and vibrant style of building design, and reveals the importance of beauty, harmony and sympathy for the body, mind and spirit. New Organic Architecture is a manifesto for a way of building that is both aesthetically pleasing and kinder to the environment. It explains eight key themes drawn from the work of organic architects, sources of inspiration, the roots and concepts behind the style, the fascination with geometry and the environmental challenges to overcome.
