{"product_id":"dream-architecture-xing-rihan-9783936681451","title":"Dream Architecture","description":"As building materials and technologies advance, architects are creating new kinds of urban environments. Among the innovations showcased in this book that are contributing to new architectural forms are parametric modeling enabled by computer-aided technology, environmentally friendly building skins, and HOPSCAs - a hybrid building type - that can house hotels, offices, parking, shopping, a convention center, and apartments under one roof. The dream buildings in this book reflect a changing architectural and cultural environment, and the processes that turn these concepts from vision to reality will open a new chapter in architectural history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Xing Rihan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3936681457\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783936681451\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Axel Menges\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/16\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 372\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.40h x 9.90w x 1.10d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2011 pg. 228","brand":"Xing Rihan","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48448044007679,"sku":"9783936681451","price":109.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_723cdcec-09d3-467d-9a94-153978aa61d6.jpg?v=1777236515","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/dream-architecture-xing-rihan-9783936681451","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
