The Material Imagination

- Reveries on Architecture and Matter

Bag om The Material Imagination

In recent years architectural discourse has witnessed a renewed interest in materiality under the guise of such familiar tropes as 'material honesty,' 'form finding,' or 'digital materiality.' As an alternative to a formal approach in architectural design, this book challenges readers to rethink the reverie of materials in architecture through an examination of historical precedent, architectural practice, literary sources, philosophical analyses and everyday experience. Focusing on matter as the premise of an architect¿s imagination, each chapter identifies and graphically illustrates how material imagination defines the conceptual premises for making architecture.
