Material senescence

Více o knize

Borrowing a term from biology, the author uses senescence to describe the ecological aging of architectural fabric in Material Senescence. Text and photographs draw from instances of failing architecture in Berlin to speculate upon the unpredictable breaking down of materials in the built environment. Foreword by Mark Minkjan titled "Transience: the Nature of Architecture". Published simultaneously with Palimpsest (2014). First Edition.
