Weather Architecture further extends Jonathan Hill’s investigation of authorship by recognising the creativity of the weather. At a time when environmental awareness is of growing relevance, the overriding aim is to understand a history of architecture as a history of weather and thus to consider the weather as an architectural author that affects design, construction and use in a creative dialogue with other authors such as the architect and user. Environmental discussions in architecture tend to focus on the practical or the poetic but here they are considered together. Rather than investigate architecture’s relations to the weather in isolation, they are integrated into a wider discussion of cultural and social influences on architecture. The analysis of weather’s effects on the design and experience of specific buildings and gardens is interwoven with a historical survey of changing attitudes to the weather in the arts, sciences and society, leading to a critical re-evaluation of contemporary responses to climate change....

How much do you know about Greek architecture? Roman? Gothic? The Renaissance? Modernism? Perhaps more importantly, do you know how these are connected or how one style evolved to become another? Or what happened historically during each of these periods? Architectural History Retold is your roadmap for your journey through architectural history. Offering a fresh take on what the author calls the ‘Great Enlightenment project’, it traces the grand narrative of western architecture in one concise, accessible volume. Starting in Ancient Greece and leading up to the present day, Paul Davies' unconventional, engaging style brings the past back to life, helping you to think beyond separate components and styles to recognise ‘the bigger picture’. The author is an academic and journalist with three decades of experience in introducing students to architectural history. The book is based on his successful entry-level course which has used the same unstuffy approach to break down barriers to understanding and engagement and inspire generations of students....

Excerpt from The Architectural Review, Vol. 11: For the Artist and Craftsman; Jan.-June 1902 The largest church in London, except ing St. Paul's and the Abbey, is now, after eight or ten years of labour, rapidly nearing structural completion. Nothing but praise and congratula tion is due to all concerned in this fine work, and nothing but good fortune seems to have attended its progress. The site was a wonderful space to find in crowded Westminster. The faithful have supported the scheme with loyal enthusiasm, and the work was confided into the hands of an architect Of great gifts and matured powers, Mr. J. F. Bentley, who in turn has simply built his life into the Church with unmeasured devotion. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
