The Alchemy of Architecture: Memoirs and Insights from Ken Tate is celebrated architect Ken Tate's creative memoir about his life in houses. Beginning with his days growing up in Columbus Mississippi where he was surrounded by beautiful Greek Revival houses, the book journeys through Ken's upbringing as a creative adolescent to his early days at Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta where he started his collegiate architectural career. There Ken struggled to keep up with the hard-edged modernism that was being taught in school and longed to design beautiful buildings with soul. Thus, his quest began leading him to Auburn University in Auburn, Alabama where he found what he was looking for in two professors, Jim Jones and Lewis Lanter, who began mentoring him. That tutelage led him to write his thesis Architecture in Search of a Soul. Following graduation from Auburn, Ken journeyed to work for the eccentric talent Bruce Goff in Texas and afterwards for Sambo Mockbee in Jackson, Mississippi. He established his own firm, Ken Tate Architect, in 1984 in Jackson, Mississippi which began a lifelong career for designing houses in an alchemical way where truth, beauty and an inner essence was distilled into them. Full of rich detail and texture, the book follows Ken's 35-year career of soul from Jackson to New Orleans and onto Palm Beach where the firm has opened their second office. Covering his approach to design, how architecture relates to cinema and photography, advice, reflections and even epiphanies, the book is a must read for any fan of the profession. Features many black and white photos taken over Ken's life and career.

From a creative and inductive architectural vision, an exploration is formed, driven by an alchemical approach between perception and its origin that is found in the natural environment.Focusing the project from nature, we obtain a construction designed as the medicine of the body and soul, embodying an integral view from alchemy, between the meanings of nature and its formal representation.The 2nd edition is subdivided into two volumes. Volume 1 has a demonstrative approach to the alchemical influence that exists at the time of projection, throwing a series of sensitive instruments of application for the construction of a place. Volume 2 focuses on the scientific research of materials, opening a broad panorama of possibilities for the choice of materials in construction.Based on the experience of the book "Archigenesis" and reflected again for the writing of this series of small books "Khemergy", "Scale & Architecture" and "Biodimension" carried out based on an investigation developed in the different philosophical and religious currents as Geometry, Topology, Theosophy, Metaphysics, Art, Biophilia, among other studies, outlining an inspiring itinerary to creativity and innovation for architecture scholars.

Over 300 years ago an alchemist-come-chemist immersed clean iron into molten zinc; to his amazement a shimmering silver coating developed on the iron. This was to become the first step in the genesis of the galvanizing process. Unknown to many, galvanizing is all around us today, and plays an important role in our everyday lives. It is used in construction, transport, agriculture and power transmission. It helps light our roads with lighting columns, and provides power to our homes, hospitals and offices via high voltage pylons. More recently, galvanizing has been used in prestigious buildings and projects by key artists, architects and engineers including Grimshaw's Eden Project, Studio Liebskind's Imperial War Museum North, The National Glass Centre in Sunderland by Gollifer Associates and O'Donnell + Tuomey's Lewis Glucksman Gallery in Cork. Presenting these projects and more, The Alchemy of Galvanizing: Art, architecture and engineering celebrates the creative and technical contribution of galvanizing to contemporary art, architecture and engineering.
