These operative verbs abstract the idea of spatial formation to its most basic terms, allowing for an objective approach to create the foundation for subjective spatial design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eExamples of these verbs are expand, inflate, nest, twist, lift, embed, merge, and many more. Together, they form a visual dictionary decoding the syntax of spatial verbs. The verbs are illustrated with three-dimensional diagrams and pictures of designs which show the verbs 'in action'.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis approach was devised, tested, and applied to architectural studio instruction by Anthony Di Mari and Nora Yoo while teaching at Harvard University's Career Discovery Program in Architecture in 2010. As instructors and as recent graduates, they saw a need for this kind of catalogue from both sides - as a reference manual applicable to design students in all stages of their studies, as well as a teaching tool for instructors to help students understand the strong spatial potential of abstract operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eOperative Design\u003c\/em\u003e serves as a valuable reference and instructional guide both for students exploring the vast possibilities of design and for instructors aiming to enhance their teaching methodologies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Thames and Hudson (Australia) Pty Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47340997017836,"sku":"9789063692896","price":28.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/3176113485415.jpg?v=1772179770"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/anthony-di-mari.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
