Summary, etc. |
"Concrete has made much of the modern world possible. Developed by the Romans, it has been used as the base material for many of the world's most famous architectural monuments, from the Pantheon in Rome to the Penguin Pool at London Zoo. The scapegoat for many of the mistakes of post-war planning, and much maligned following its misuse in housing and civic developments of the 1960s, concrete has now re-established itself as the material of choice for leading architects, designers and artists. Redressing the preconceptions surrounding concrete, this is the first book to explore its possibilities and focus on its use in the home. Four main chapters look at the properties of concrete in a domestic context - its strength, form, texture, and utility. Each chapter considers work by leading designers and architects, from concrete staircases and walls, to tables, benches, lights, baths and bowls. An informative introduction explores the development of concrete as a building material, and the influence major projects have had on the use of concrete in the domestic environment, while a glossary explains various techniques. With a text by design expert Sarah Gaventa, and a wealth of little-known images of works in concrete by leading architects and designers, this book presents the extraordinary nature of concrete and its possibilities for the 21st century."--BOOK JACKET. |
