Product Description

Author: Life Creation Publisher: Bright Light Culture Book size: 148mm x 210mm Number of pages: 240 pages ISBN: 978-988-8716-51-7 【brief introduction】 Research on Collective Spatial Memory of Urban Studies, Architecture, and People's Science Analysis of the Drawing Book of Mustard Seed Garden in Modern City McGordon (Professor, Department of Anthropology, The Chinese University of Hong Kong): "I always think that architects are only interested in buildings made of stone, wood, steel, and Cement, rather than living beings. However, the book is short. The content changed my mind." Peter Ferretto (Associate Professor, Department of Architecture, The Chinese University of Hong Kong): "The spontaneous environment in the book is to point out these often neglected urban spaces. It awakens the daily life, social interaction and cultural setting that architects do not care about." Yang Liao (Visiting Associate Professor of the School of Architecture, China Academy of Art) recommended: "Compared with photos and blueprints of architectural space, the drawings in the book are close to our understanding of real memories. They are loose and have subtle differences. Personal memories have different environments. It's different, but the outline is enough to awaken the impression of a certain realm." The combination of schemas creates a landscaping, and the combination of landscaping creates a city. The collective memory of the city is the law of the surroundings and schemas, which shape our daily life behavior. The schema vocabulary that composes the city is compiled from the details of life in order to reinterpret the city. Then, it is not just residential buildings, shopping malls and various types of buildings that make up this city. After redefining the schema vocabulary of this city, we recalled some of the various folk villages that belonged to this place. The memory fragments that make up this city, these surroundings, and these schemas all make this place unique. "Surroundings. At a glance, Schemata seems to be a way of observing the city, introspecting inwardly in the city. But observing the city from the perspective of modern architecture directly affects the design techniques of modern cities. Therefore, "Lin Jing. "Schema" is a process of redefining the architectural space and the city at a time. The purpose of writing a series of schemas about the city is to reconstruct Hong Kong that belongs to the individual and the collective. It is to critique the current urban planning and architectural design techniques. 【About the Author】 Life creation Life makes cities, and cities make life. The team aims to explore the reality of the city and its direct impact on people's emotions, cognition, and behavior from life, so as to reflect on the collective memory of the city, local life culture and architectural design. In this way, we try to give urban theory a discussion that leaves history and pure emotion, and has academic standards and theoretical foundations, and also hopes to inspire people's understanding of local cities.
