The art of design leads to their integration in a balanced whole. The book is intended for students as well as for lay people who wish to participate in the public debate on the built environment.
Contents Five parameters : Grid : How is it ordered? -- Function : How is it used? -- Detail : How is it made? -- Materials : What is it made of? -- Cost : How much does it cost? -- Case study : House -- Church : Vierzehnheiligen -- Furniture : Patient bed -- Public building : Landtag Baden-Württemberg -- Farmhouse : Black Forest -- Halls : A short evolution -- Bridge : Salginatobel -- Cultural building : Glyndebourne Opera House -- Cities : Urban public spaces.
