Jørn Utzon and Transcultural Essentialism (Routledge Research in Architecture)

Unknown Author

4.9/5 (31111 ratings)

Description:"This book introduces and defines the burgeoning concepts of transculturalism and essentialism and how they relate to one another, as articulated with reference to the work of J�rn Utzon. It introduces critical contemporary perspectives of the design thinking and career of this renowned Danish architect, best known for his competition-winning design for the Sydney Opera House. Transcultural essentialism is analysed through the lens of critical regionalism and architectural phenomenology, with emphasis on the sense of place and tectonics in Utzon's architectural works. It provides a new understanding of the Danish architect as an early proponent of a still emergent and increasingly relevant direction in architecture. Going beyond biographical studies, it presents a more comprehensive understanding of the broad range of transcultural influences that formed his thinking. The volume includes numerous previously unpublished photographs, drawings and interviews with Utzon's family members, former students and colleagues, offering a significant contribution to the existing body of knowledge for any architecture scholar interested in Utzon's work and design principles"--We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
