Charles Holland challenges us to look beyond the day-to-day familiarity of buildings to rediscover the pleasure of experiencing architecture Architecture is bound up with our daily lives but, for most of us, it is experienced as a blur of habit. Our reactions towards the buildings that surround us are often culturally generated, and we experience them in ways that are immediate but often mundane. How to Enjoy Architecture: A Guide for Everyone encourages us to move beyond this and, instead, really look at buildings. Renowned architect Charles Holland talks about the buildings and architects that excite and inspire him, and the ideas and principles through which we can engage with architecture. By breaking buildings down into categories such as materials, structure, space, and use, Holland guides us through drastically different styles and building types—from the satisfying symmetry of a Queen Anne house to the thrill of a high-tech tower, or the social ideals that lie behind a housing estate. In doing so, he demonstrates how looking at, experiencing, and using architecture can bring joy in itself. "A book that will enrich any encounter with a building, it made me want to look harder and be more curious. We are led playfully through the fundamentals of architecture so that we might enjoy the details and the poetry of buildings all the more. A walk through the city feels more fun and also more profound after reading this book." Grayson Perry, artist "We so often encounter architecture when it goes wrong, or offends us with its looks. Holland, though, is the perfect, clear-headed tour guide to help us appreciate it with newly sharpened senses and fall in love again – even those buildings we think we hate." Tom Dyckhoff, academic and broadcaster "An enlightening and urbane exploration of architecture that resonates beyond conventional chronological histories" Catherine Slessor, architecture writer and critic

Architectural Expressions turns on its head the notion that architecture must be deadly serious in order to be valid. It is a testament to the wit and inventiveness of a selection of architects and building designers over the last century who have injected a sense of fun into the built environment. Over the last 30 years, brothers Peter and Tony Mackertich have travelled the western world seeking out buildings which are inspiring, innovative, and show a touch of humour. Their stunning colour photographs bear witness to the fact that it is possible to make legitimate architecture whilst still retaining a smile. Boldly juxtaposing 'high' architecture with less recognised structures, the book traces the development of the spirit of fun in 20th-century building design. Buildings featured include: * Einstein Tower, Potsdam, Germany (Erich Mendelsohn, 1919-24) * Hoover Factory, London, UK (Wallis, Gilbert and Partners, 1932) * Pan-Pacific Auditorium, Los Angeles, USA (William Wurdamen, 1936) * AT&T Headquarters, New York, USA (Philip Johnson & John Burgee, 1982) * Guggenheim Museum, Bilbao, Spain (Frank O Gehry, 1997) * Peckham Library, London, UK (Will Alsop, 2000) For too long the complex theories of architecture have tended to alienate the man in the street. Happily we have now reached a time when the same buildings that are admired by architects for their cutting-edge innovations are also appreciated by the general public for their wit and visual appeal. This book will delight anyone with either a personal interest or an active role in the design of the built environment - and a sense of humour!

* Grouped into finished works by typology and thematic idea, this monograph is packed with rich illustrations, plans, full-color, photography, and incisive commentary on storytelling through design, toolkits for wayfinding, embedding research for better experience outcomes, with strategies and tactics behind each project's development to help attract and engage people to play, learn, explore, and experience these places* Projects featured include the Mid-Michigan Children's Museum, Young at Art Museum, Lincoln Park Zoo: Pritzker Family Zoo, The Latin School of Chicago Interactive Science Forum, and the DuPage Children's Museum, among many othersIn a follow-up to the very successful monograph Design for Kids (Images Publishing, 2007), here Sharon Exley and Peter Exley go about expanding on the key philosophies behind their unique practice. Namely, that play is an invitation to Architecture Is Fun. Through architecture, play can be manifest, challenged, and celebrated. Finding out who will play (and live, work, and learn) in our buildings is an intriguing challenge. The firm likes to discover the architectural catalysts that will give character to a building. Often this involves the universal language of Play. Play fits all bodies. Play is accessible. Play inspires innovation. Play puts us in the present. Play engages us. Play is memorable. Play connects us to others and to the world. This beautifully illustrated book offers a glimpse into the firm's interdisciplinary and participatory processes and how it believes that architecture and play are transformative.

The book covers the author's personal experiences from commencement in the 1950's until approx. 2002 working in various Architectural and Project Management positions for practices both in London and Johannesburg South Africa. There is very little Architecture discussed as It mainly reflects the atmosphere of the times along with social activities and even a spell of Army National Service. There are many humorous anecdotes and, in South Africa dangerous incidences in Soweto. People in both countries' will probably recognise some of the practices and situations and will find it both interesting and very entertaining. WARNING: - The book accurately reflects the mores of the times and no attempt is made to be so called Politically Correct.

Authoritative and readable, this excellent text, illustrated by a unique pictorial record of period architecture, surveys and examines how and why the architecture of pleasure related to the stylistic and ideological concerns of modernism in 1930s Britain. Responding to the current interest in modernism and packed with a substantial archive of high quality photographs and other documentation, it relates the professional, entrepreneurial and institutional infrastructures affecting the pleasure industry’s architectural development and appearance in 1930s. A broad range of building through which the general public first experienced Modernism are covered, including: commercial – holiday camps, cinemas and greyhound racing stadia municipal and governmental projects – zoos, seaside pavilions, concert halls, and imperial and international exhibitions. Arguing that the responses to modernism through the architecture of pleasure were conditioned by wider debates about the role of design in relation to high and mass culture, this book is an ideal resource for all those interested in architectural history and design in Britain between the wars.

Serious Fun is about architecture and urban design games that have been conceived and created by architects, urban designers, artists and game developers since the end of the twentieth century ? from doll?s houses to construction games and city building games, from SimCity to Block by Block.00The games are looked at from both a game technical and an architectural-critical point of view. As much attention is paid to the games themselves (the way they look, their construction and rules) as to their playing ? in particular, to the space that players receive or take for their personal, spontaneous, unexpected and especially subversive moves and ideas. What perception of, and interaction with, the built environment do they express? What messages do the games communicate? How critical and innovative are the underlying concepts: Are stereotypes confirmed or broken? Do they address environmental and social issues? Serious Fun presents games and playfulness as serious tools for every architect and urban designer.00This book concludes a triptych about alternative forms of representation and communication in architecture and urban design.00Exhibition: Architekturzentrum Wien, Austria (16.03. - 02.09.2022).
