Description: Cartea este o lucrare de cercetare despre arhitectura si urbanismul societatilor postindustriale. Studiul este compus din argument, un capitol introductiv si capitole de analiza despre gradini si peisaje, insotite de o bogata bibliografie si ilustratie cu exemple de peisaje urbane cu cladiri si gradini din spatiul european. Volumul aduce o noua abordare asupra arhitecturii. Reflectia asupra arhitecturii ocupa un loc oarecum aparte intre literaturile de specialitate. Specificitatea teoriei arhitecturii sta mai cu seama in aceea ca cerceteaza un gen de arta autoreferential: mediul pe care-l locuim e un spatiu amenajat caracterizat printr-un grad variabil de artificialitate. Intrebarile la care cartea incearca sa gaseasca un raspuns sint de felul: Ce semnificatii poarta azi mediul locuit ? De ce a evoluat modul de amenajare a locuirii de la formele traditionale la cele de azi ? Cum putem imagina mediul locuit intr-un mod mai adecvat din punct de vedere semantic?-- Amazon, book description

The book is a research paper on the architecture and urbanism of post-industrial societies. The study consists of an argument, an introductory chapter and analysis chapters on gardens and landscapes, accompanied by a rich bibliography and illustration with examples of urban landscapes with buildings and gardens in Europe. The volume brings a new approach to architecture. The reflection on architecture occupies a somewhat special place among the specialized literatures. The specificity of the theory of architecture lies especially in the fact that it researches a kind of self-referential art: the environment we live in is an arranged space characterized by a variable degree of artificiality. The questions to which the book tries to find an answer are: What are the meanings of the living environment today? Why has the way of arranging housing evolved from traditional forms to today's ones? How can we imagine the environment in a more semantically appropriate way? - Amazon, book description
