The Second edition of Architectural Technology addresses these challenges directly. Much greater emphasis is given to the three core themes of the book - Environmental Sustainability; Innovation; and Design. An increase in the visual material included reinforces the critical role of Design, aiding students to better translate conceptual designsArchitectureTechnological innovationsArchitecture and technologyArchitectural designTechniqueArchitectureTechnological innovations.Architecture and technology.Architectural designTechnique.720.1/05Emmitt Stephen856066MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910790023403321Architectural technology1915536UNINA
