INDISCERNIBLE ELEMENTS: CALCIUM BY KORYNN NEWVILLE
Victor, ID — Author Korynn Newville will release her first book, Indiscernible Elements: Calcium, exploring the vital role of calcium not only in the body but also in architecture and human relationships.
Calcium is a vital element that plays a fundamental role in various physiological processes in the body. As an architectural designer, Newville tells us how this element connects all of us, beyond our bodies.
“A lot of building materials are made of pieces of calcium,” Newville says. “My teeth are made of the same things as dry wall. Buildings are made of bones. These structures are just like us.”
With a focus on practical advice and evidence-based research, Indiscernible Elements: Calcium provides readers a new perspective of this element, and helps readers look at the world differently.
Her book stems from her thesis work on how architecture needs to practice with living and dying. Newville envisions a series of future books focusing on more elements, and is embarking on a journey of sharing her art through events, media, and other vehicles.
Newville adds, “This book is just the beginning of what could be. By breaking us down to our core elements, we can understand the importance of our connection to the planet. And maybe that will help prepare us to live in a world that is rapidly evolving and changing.”
Indiscernible Elements: Calcium by Korynn Newville is available as an advance reading copy on NetGalley.
I am in your teeth, your bones, your nails. I help your muscles contract. I will help your heart beat. You need me.
