• Sommario/riassunto: Architectures of Weaving reimagines the art of weaving as the combined result of fiber techniques and cultural practice. Addressing today’s urgent energetic and environmental challenges, the book explores new approaches for resilient and adaptable material systems by examining the boundaries between softness and rigidity, material and shape, and functionality and structure. With the aim of fostering interdisciplinary research and developing sustainable practices, this thoughtfully designed book assembles contributions by practitioners and theoreticians working in the fields of anthropology, architecture, art, biology, cultural history, design, materials science, and textile technology.; Architectures of Weaving untersucht die Idee des Textilen als Kombination von Fasertechniken und baukultureller Praxis. Mit Blick auf die drängenden energetischen und ökologischen Herausforderungen unserer Zeit erforscht das Buch neue Ansätze anpassungsfähiger und resilienter Materialsysteme, indem es die Grenzen zwischen Weichheit und Stabilität, Material und Form sowie Funktionalität und Struktur auslotet. Mit dem Ziel, interdisziplinären Austausch anzuregen und nachhaltige Praktiken zu entwickeln, versammelt diese durchdacht gestaltete Publikation Beiträge von Praktiker*innen und Theoretiker*innen aus den Bereichen Architektur, Anthropologie, Biologie, Design, Kunst, Kulturgeschichte, Materialwissenschaft und Textiltechnologie.
