This book examines architecture at the limits where it is muddied by alternative disciplinary influences, such as art practice, philosophy, or literature, and shows that there is no 'core of architecture' but rather architecture as a multiplicity of diverse concerns in engagement with local environments and worlds. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\\n                                                            \u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Paperback \/ softback\u003cbr\u003e\\n                              \u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 264 pages\u003cbr\u003e\\n                              \u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 13 December 2018\u003cbr\u003e\\n                              \u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bloomsbury Publishing PLC\u003cbr\u003e\\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eArchitect and philosopher Hélène Frichot delves into the intricate realm of architecture, exploring its theoretical and practical aspects from a unique perspective. Rather than focusing solely on iconic buildings and renowned architects, she delves into the background of architectural practice, unveiling the creative ecologies in which architecture thrives. This captivating book comprises a series of philosophical encounters that transcend traditional boundaries, examining architecture at the crossroads where it intersects with alternative disciplinary influences such as art, philosophy, and literature. Frichot meets a diverse range of creative individuals who operate at the margins, challenging the fundamental assumptions of the discipline and demonstrating that there is no singular \"core\" of architecture. Instead, architecture emerges as a multifaceted and diverse endeavor, engaging with local environments and worlds in myriad ways. Drawing from her extensive expertise in the fields of architecture and philosophy, particularly her work on Deleuze, Frichot offers a radical, accessible, and highly original approach to design research. She skillfully navigates a wide range of contemporary topics, from the Anthropocene to affect theory, new materialism to contemporary feminism, engaging readers with her insightful and thought-provoking perspectives. This book is a valuable resource for architects, designers, scholars, and anyone interested in the dynamic and ever-evolving world of architecture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 442g\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 156 x 234 x 13 (mm)\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781350042087\\n                            \\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HeleneFrichot","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44094164009210,"sku":"9781350042087","price":24.09,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/4285fe210f1b2c97c0df34f9013e3eba.jpg?v=1624840690","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/creative-ecologies-theorizing-the-practice-of-architecture","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
