Capsules: Typology of Other Architecture - Peter Senk - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Capsules: Typology of Other Architecture - Peter Senk - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

This book investigates the architectural, product design, and urban typology of the capsule which, beginning in the 1960s, broadened the concept of the basic building blocks of architecture to include a minimal living unit, called the "capsule." Here it is presented with regard to the continuity of the development of the Modern Movement, its revisionist criticism, pioneering examples, as well as contemporary examples and uses. The typology of the capsule allows us to consider this theme in terms of the architecture of resistance, with the potential to search for an "other" architecture that is embedded in our contemporaneity (manifested in small dwellings, composite structures, and container units; shelters and mobile homes in nature and the urban environment; technology transfer in high-tech designs; devices, additions, and extensions etc.). The concept of the capsule as a building element of architecture, as well as a spatial element, can therefore be regarded as having a generative potential for an architecture of personal space for the individual, forcing us to reflect on our existing living and dwelling conditions.

Tracts of the American Revolution, 1763-1776 - - Bog - Hackett Publishing Co, Inc - Plusbog.dk

This volume brings together seventeen of the most important pamphlets produced by the American colonies as they opposed British measures and policies after 1763, and as they disputed the issue of independence with one another between 1774 and 1776.

Students of American history and political thought will find in these tracts rich evidence of the colonists'' grievances against Britain, their methods of persuasion, and the development of political thought that led to the Declaration of Independence.

Japanese Military Sake Cups • 1894-1945 - Dan King - Bog - Schiffer Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

This new book is the first in English on this fascinating and increasingly popular military collectible.

Sake cups were commissioned by naval troops, pilots, tank crews, supply crews, infantrymen, cavalrymen, telegraph and railroad engineers with an innumerable variation of colors and designs. Each cup is a mini time capsule with the owner’s name and regiment inscribed, enabling the collector to search for the background and history of the soldier who once drank a victory toast, or a farewell toast with these very cups. It is hoped the book will foster a greater understanding and appreciation for this little known field of Japanese militaria/art collecting.
