Аннотация:
If there is a discipline in which human cultural development can be read almost as if from a book, it is architecture. By considering the evolution the built form through the ages, any observer could trace the long and irregular path taken by historical developments — design techniques, technological innovations, evolving trends and the formation of schools all inevitably reflect the character, the «soul» of each civilization. Renowned architects here exhibit their most innovative and creative designs for educational and cultural buildings. Museums, institutions, universities, schools, residences, libraries and other educational centres in general are all designed as a response to both functional and aesthetic needs in fulfilling the requirements of modern teaching. This book offers a complete selection of the most outstanding projects, including ample illustrations and construction plans to provide a greater understanding of some of the essential aspects of educational architecture.
