{"product_id":"beyond-the-object-dieter-dietz-9783038601128","title":"Beyond the Object: The Imagination of Space. All about Space, Volume 3","description":"The Atelier de la Conception de l'Espace (ALICE), affiliated with the School of Architecture at the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, is an educational facility focusing on preparing students for the practice of architecture. Its curriculum is guided by the belief that students must be confronted with an educational framework preparing them for architecture's many practical challenges, from cultural, social, environmental, and physical concerns to working with the wide range of collaborators who must bring their creativity and expertise together in the design process. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The third volume in a four-part series on ALICE's teachings, \u003ci\u003eBeyond the Object: The Imagination of Space\u003c\/i\u003e follows up on \u003ci\u003eThe House 1 Catalogue\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Invention of Space\u003c\/i\u003e, proposing an alternative cultural history of architecture derived from the notion of spatial design rather than technical engineering and construction. Among the topics discussed are the common and scientific understandings of space and how they can be applied to contemporary architectural practice. Using Zurich as an exemplar of urban planning and development, the new volume combines fact with fiction to broaden the view upon future scenarios. \u003cbr\u003e ALICE plays a key role in the success of one of Europe's leading schools of architecture, and this book, together with the three other volumes in the series, provides an opportunity to explore the exceptional learning environment ALICE offers. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dieter Dietz\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3038601128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783038601128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Park Publishing (WI)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/15\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.40h x 6.80w x 1.00d","brand":"Dieter Dietz","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":49097120317695,"sku":"9783038601128","price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/beyond-the-object-dieter-dietz-9783038601128","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
