Book Description:

Structure As Architecture provides readers with an accessible insight into the relationship between structure and architecture, focusing on the design principles that relate to both fields. Over one hundred case studies of contemporary buildings from countries across the globe including the UK, the US, France, Germany, Spain, Hong Kong and Australia are interspersed throughout the book. The author has visited and photographed each of these examples and analyzed them to show how structure plays a significant architectural role, as well as bearing loads. This is a highly illustrated sourcebook, providing a new insight into the role of structure, and discussing the point where the technical and the aesthetic meet to create the discipline of architecture.

* Presents a comprehensive analysis of how building structure contributes to architecture
* Connects architectural design ideas and structure in the context of contemporary architecture, materials and structure
* Highly illustrated, providing a sourcebook of architectural and engineering design ideas

This book explores the potential of structure, that is beams, columns, frames, struts and other structural members, to enrich architecture. At the most basic level I hope to raise architects’ perception of structure as an integral element of architecture rather than as just an applied technology. I also wish to challenge architects to design structure themselves.
That is, to attend to all aspects of its design, in collaboration with structural engineers of course, in order to realize their design concepts.Where structure contributes architecturally, other than in its primary load-bearing role, it contributes another layer of aesthetic and functional richness to designs. It increases interest in and enjoyment of buildings, improves their usability, and raises the spirits of their occupants.
