Beschreibung

We live in a moving world, and this is reflected in what we build and how we live and work. There is a new necessity to analyse the challenges that architects and designers face in creating spaces that can be rapidly constructed, taken down and even relocated.
New Portable Architecture reveals the cutting-edge techniques that allow static architectural forms to go mobile through a fascinating range of examples of portable architecture that will capture the reader s attention and imagination. The most up-to-date and comprehensive work on the subject, New Portable Architecture is an in-depth compilation of one of the newest areas in architecture. It covers a wide range of possibilities within the field and, at the same time, it provides a unique fusion of creative design, adaptability and sustainability.
