Beskrivning

Interprets architecture theory through the lens of Continental philosophyDrawing on a range of philosophical texts, Andrej Radman brings together a collection of 11 of his essays, published over the last decade, to show that when a society manipulates its matter it is not a reflection of culture; it is culture. To speak of ecologies of architecture is to break with judgement for experience. As Gilles Deleuze put it in his book on Nietzsche, it is not about justification, 'but a different way of feeling: another sensibility'. If to think differently we have to feel differently, then the design of the built environment has no other purpose but to transform us. While engineering is solution-oriented, architecture stays with the problem so as to tease out a creative potential.

Recensioner i media

Andrej Radman is one of the most insightful and interesting architectural theorists now at work. He is refreshingly meticulous in his treatment of architectural theory and Continental philosophy, and this collection of Radman's most important essays on theory from the past few years, is a significant and very welcome contribution to the domain of architectural theory.
