Zwischen Raum Und Substanz - Paperback

by Österreichische Gesellschaft Für Archite (Editor)

A house or a room can never be viewed in isolation. As part of a nexus, architecture creates relationships from houses and interior spaces. Our relationship to designed space is constantly being re-experienced and re-evaluated, most recently during the Covid-19 pandemic, which radically re-evaluated interior and exterior space. Complementing this, structural substance forms a pillar of our understanding of architecture - from the actual material substance in its cycles and transformations to the programmatic content of architecture and the substance of the city. UM_BAU 32 makes explicit this tension between space and substance. UM_BAU invites a diverse range of voices to write about the permanent and the (in)tangible, producing a document of an extraordinary time.

• Interior and exterior, public and private spaces
• Current ideas on material cycles and resources
• With contributions by Stephan Trüby, Elise Feiersinger/Claudia Cavallar and many others.
