Do you know why you should? How do you make sure that you have the critical thinking tools necessary to prosper in your academic and professional career? This book gives you the answers. Architects have a valuable and critical set of multiple thinking types that they develop throughout the design process. In this book, Randy Deutsch shows readers how to access those thinking types and use them outside pure design thinking - showing how they can both solve problems but also identify the problems that need solving. To think the way the best architects do. With a clear, driving narrative, peppered with anecdote, stories and real-life scenarios, this book will future-proof the architectural student and emerging professional. Change is coming in the architecture profession, and this is a much-needed exploration of the critical thinking skills that architects have in abundance, but that are not taught well enough within architecture schools. These skills are crucial in being able to respond agilely to a future that nobody is quite sure of.]]></description><link>https://delawarelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C4311519</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://delawarelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C4311519</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Deutsch, Randy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2020 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://delawarelibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4311519105</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>How to Develop Critical, Creative and Collaborative Problem-solving Skills</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781859469316/MC.GIF&amp;client=clcpolaris&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=1155217304</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Notre-Dame: The World's Cathedral]]></title><description><![CDATA[A fascinating visual history of Notre-Dame, "the World's Cathedral," that highlights the burning and reconstruction of the cherished building from award-winning author-illustrator Lynn Curlee.

Schiff and features over 120 of his civic panoramic photographs of the interior and exterior spaces of these civic buildings throughout the country. Spanning three centuries of design, readers will see a myriad of styles used in different regions and time periods in this large format book. Schiff's signature panoramic style offers a breathtaking full 360° sweep of civic architecture, allowing the viewer to see what is directly in front in addition to the views to the left, right, and the rear. Each chapter of Civic Architecture Across America features one of short eight essays written by an architectural historian, practicing architect, museum curator, or photographer who shares their thoughts on an aspect of civic architectural expression and engagement surrounding civic space today. The book unfolds regionally, beginning with a tour of our nation's capital and its most iconic locations such as Lincoln's Memorial and the Library of Congress Reading Room photographed as you have never seen before. Readers then travel to each region of the country where they will meet an expert who shares their perspective on Schiff's imagery and the architectural uniqueness, changes, and considerations which go into building these central town, city, and state buildings. This essay sets the tone for the main attraction, the images which Schiff so elegantly captures and transforms into a work of art. View the beauty places such as the Maryland Statehouse, Buffalo City Hall, Federal Plaza in Chicago, Cincinnati City Hall, Faneuil Hall in Boston, New Hampshire Supreme Court, Thomas Jefferson's Monticello, the West Virginia Independence Hall, Sandra Day O'Connor U.S. Courthouse, the Scottsdale City Hall and over one hundred more locations. Some locations you will recognize, others you will not! Schiff's photographs will appeal to lovers of civic and public spaces, photography, and those who embrace our nation's beauty.

This stunningly illustrated volume present forty-five of the most interesting tropical houses of the last thirty years, surveying India, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Thailand, Malaysia, Vietnam, Singapore, Indonesia and northern Australia, arranged decade by decade. Author Patrick Bingham-Hall sets the houses in context arguing that climate, colonization and modernism, as well as geo-political events since the end of World War II, and even air conditioning, have created a very specific set of circumstances and therefore houses. These are buildings with pitched roofs, broad overhangs and eaves, verandas, big doors and windows, that optimize airflow and solar orientation. Larger-than-life, open to the elements, this is soaring architecture with a strong sense of place. Bingham-Hall makes the case that this is architecture that's environmentally attuned and innately sustainable. It's also a book of lush, jaw-dropping houses that seamlessly blend indoor and out, in locations anyone would want to visit." -- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://delawarelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C4284144</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://delawarelibrary.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C4284144</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Bingham-Hall, Patrick]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://delawarelibrary.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/4284144105</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780500027011/MC.GIF&amp;client=clcpolaris&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=1463506573</image_url></item></channel></rss>
