With essays on a range of architectural and design concerns, as well as engaging with other thinkers, the book covers topics including textuality in architecture, contemporary high-rise construction, the significance of the line, the relation between building and memory, and the idea of authenticity in architecture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis book departs from the traditional phenomenological focus and provides students and scholars with a new ontological assessment of landscape and architecture. As such, it may also be used in other ‘spatial’ or ‘topographic’ disciplines including geography, sociology, anthropology, and art, in which the ‘spatial turn’ has been so important.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Allen \u0026 Unwin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47000727912684,"sku":"9781350253148","price":65.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/20443763482668.jpg?v=1763300884","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/rethinking-dwelling-by-distinguished-professor-jeff-malpas-9781350253148","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
