Spuren / Traces - Bog

How can architectural constructions be integrated into the landscape? How is architecture conceivable in flood-prone areas or arid landscapes? What role do the topography and materiality of the landscape play in architecture? These and other questions are addressed in the newly published DETAIL edition 'Spuren - Traces'. It discusses how 'reading', observing and capturing space and landscape determine an architectural design in different landscape contexts. The book provides insight into an approach to architectural design. On the basis of selected works created between 2021 and 2023 in the master's programme at the Chair for Building and Design under the direction of Prof. Uta Graff at TUM Munich, certain aspects become the focus of consideration. Colourful, large-format illustrations of artefacts and models, project descriptions and essays document the various issues. The order of the works is chronological, but can be understood and read differently. The open structure of the book makes it possible to discover and follow 'traces' while reading it.
