Více o knize
Exploring classic Indian texts and the Vaastupurusha Mandala, this book highlights overlooked concepts in urbanism that predate European writings. It makes these ideas accessible to students in architecture and urban planning by examining Hindu temple towns in India as case studies. The author emphasizes the formal abstraction of the Mandala and shifts the conversation from sociology to a trans-disciplinary design approach that integrates socio-ecological factors. This fresh perspective aims to revise traditional models to better address contemporary urban and ecological challenges.
