David Leatherbarrow is a leading voice in architectural education on the world stage, whose books and research address how architecture appears, is perceived and shapes topography.
Featuring a collection of essays by renowned scholars and architects from Asia, Europe and North America, Communicative Construction explores architectures communicative purpose partly between architects, builders and clients, but more largely, the conversations buildings themselves have with others constructed in their location, through their orientation, articulation and materiality.
This book examines the way in which architecture communicates. A study in architectural theory, it discusses the communication between architects and what buildings themselves communicate through their orientation, articulation and materiality. This makes the book a unique and culturally pertinent contribution to architectural literature.
