ARCHITECTURE
Architectural Material & Detail Structure Concrete
Concrete usually gives the impression of being rough, cold and grey. Therefore, how to make it more friendly and acceptable to the public is an important issue in architectural design. Many architects have made positive attempts. For example, the mixed use of concrete and wood or metal will make concrete more accessible. In addition, the perfection and abstraction of concrete will attract those familiar with modern arts as well. The book approaches the use of concrete in architecture from a new perspective. Through presentation and analysis of the latest projects, you will gain a new understanding of this traditional material and get inspirations as well.
