Today’s innovative architecture would be inconceivable and unbuildable
without the rapid development of new building materials and
technologies. Against this background Made of… not only
presents unconventional approaches to the use of materials in
architecture and design but also describes the current state of research
and rediscovered technologies. The book is an inspirational reference
for everyone who is looking for a specific material, who would like to
expand their design palettes with further cutting-edge possibilities, or
who can use an overview of current developments in this area.
Today’s innovative architecture would be inconceivable and unbuildable
without the rapid development of new building materials and
technologies. Against this background Made of… not only
presents a comprehensive overview of unconventional approaches to the
use of materials in architecture and design but also describes the
current state of research and rediscovered technologies.
Made of… shows possibilities for using new building
materials for sophisticated building concepts. The content of the
chapters reflects practice-oriented architectural themes – for example
structurally efficient building materials, free form or ornamental
surfaces, protective building layers, energy generating and luminous
surfaces, or renewable and recycled resources. Made of… not
only collects a broad spectrum of fascinating materials and examples of
international projects, it also provides in-depth explanations of
relevant technologies and applications including technical details.
Today, the demands on planning a building in terms of its
structural, functional and energy efficiency are constantly rising. With
them, the demands on building materials and on the architects who use
them are rising as well. Made of… gives architects both
valuable insight and practical advice as to how they can work with
innovative building materials today in a way that is also viable for the
future. The book is an inspirational reference for all architects,
designers, and artists who are looking for a specific material, who
would like to expand their design palettes with further cutting-edge
possibilities, or who can use an overview of current developments in
this area.
Made of... is comprised of five chapters:
Light and Strong (Reinforced, Sandwiches, Foams)
Material follows Form (Solidified, Shaped, Digitized)
Coats and Covers (Protective, Insulating, Visual)
Powered Surfaces (Energetic, Illuminated, Responsive)
Re-Materialization (Re-cycled, Re-used, Re-grown)
The architect Christiane Sauer, who has established herself as an
international expert in the field of building materials, has written the
texts for and edited Made of…. In addition to her practical
work, she advises the industry and architecture offices the world over
on the subject of new building materials and their application in an
architectural context.
