这本一半是设计灵感,一半是旅行日记的书着重介绍了快速发展的适应性复用运动
《“酷”无处不在》用摄影的形式对在美国最酷的城市兴起的适应性复用设计运动进行了一次概述。多年来,Michel Arnaud一直在研究城市生活在小城镇中的传播,研究当今的建筑师如何以令人兴奋的方式将过去与现在融合在一起。
《“酷”无处不在》突出了那些将普通建筑变成艺术品的杰出设计。从马萨诸塞州的北亚当斯,到加利福尼亚的奥克兰,和米歇尔(Michel)一起探索那些让他相信“酷”无处不在的摩天大楼和别致的住宅区。
Equal parts design inspiration and travelogue, this book highlights the rapidly growing adaptive reuse movement
Cool Is Everywhere is a photographic survey of the adaptive reuse design movement in America’s coolest cities. Michel Arnaud has been studying the spread of urban life into smaller towns for years now, looking at how today’s architects are blending the past with the present in exciting ways. These cities’ and towns’ residents are rethinking the usage of available architecture and repurposing it. Explore the arts and design district of Richmond, Virginia, where an old department store was turned into the beautiful Quirk Hotel. Journey to Greenville, South Carolina, home to a synagogue that became a church that became a private residence.
Cool Is Everywhere highlights remarkable designs that have transformed ordinary buildings into works of art. From North Adams, Massachusetts, to Oakland, California, join Michel as he explores the skyscrapers and quaint neighborhoods that led him to believe that cool is, in fact, everywhere.
