ABOUT THIS BOOK:
In so far as our environment is considered to be an essential condition for a healthy spiritual balance, the role played by Architecture - and in particular by Interior Architecture - becomes of primary importance to us all. In effect, the brief for the majority of the projects included in this book reveals a need for an environment capable of relieving the pressures of everyday activites in a variety of situations. An informative text complemented by many illustrations and line drawings provides full technical details of construction methods for eighteen interiors. Among these are holiday retreats among the olive groves of Greece or the bare rocks of Colorado, a Centre for Visual Arts in the University of East Anglia, UK, the Citicorp Centre in New York, a Correctional Institute for cirminal offenders in Alaska, the National Ethnological Museum in Osaka and the Archaeological Museum in Lyon-Fourviere, France; while the inclusion of the Citadel Theatre in Edmonton, Cananda, the Sports Complex in Nantes, France, and the passenger-ferry Finnjet from Helsinki refelcts a new, wider scope for research in the tradition of this annual. Another subject in Decorative Art is Elements of Architecture: Light, by Professor Pieter de Bruyne, of Brussels and Antwerp Universities. In his work, the Author examines the role of light other than that of pure function and advocates a use of light in architecture which emphasizes the poetic quality of this element. The book concludes with a review of industrial and craft objects produced recently in the manufactories and workshops of many countries.(Publisher).
