Directly confronting the nature of contemporary architectural work, this book is the first to address a void at the heart of architectural discourse and thinking. For too long, architects have avoided questioning how the central aspects of architectural "practice" (professionalism, profit, technology, design, craft, and building) combine to characterize the work performed in the architectural office. Nor has there been a deeper evaluation of the unspoken and historically-determined myths that assign cultural, symbolic, and economic value to architectural labor.
The Architect as Worker presents a range of essays exploring the issues central to architectural labor. These include questions about the nature of design work; immaterial and creative labor and how it gets categorized, spatialized, and monetized within architecture; the connection between parametrics and BIM and labor; theories of architectural work; architectural design as a cultural and economic condition; entrepreneurialism; and the possibility of ethical and rewarding architectural practice.
The book is a call-to-arms, and its ultimate goal is to change the practice of architecture. It will strike a chord with architects, who will recognize the struggle of their profession; with students trying to understand the connections between work, value, and creative pleasure; and with academics and cultural theorists seeking to understand what grounds the discipline.

Описание: Die Neuauflage von Buckminster Fullers Erstlingswerk, fur dessen Publikation 1938 Albert Einstein sich stark machte. In 43 Kapiteln entfaltet der Konstrukteur, Visionar, Erfinder, Designer, Sprachschopfer und spektakulare Performer die Kunst, auf eigene Faust zu denken. Fuller spannt einen gewaltigen Horizont auf, Nine Chains to the Moon kommt einer Navigation quer durch unsere Lebenswelt gleich: „What Is a House?", „Death and Life", „Longing Crosses the Sea", „Dollarability", „We Call it Earth", „Stomach Rhythms", „Ephemeralization" – vom Mikroskopischen zum Automobil, zum Haus, zur Urbanitat, zum Bild des Kosmos in standiger Bewegung. Der Titel, sagt Fuller, stimuliere aufgeschlossenes Denken: Die Weltbevolkerung, einer auf den Schultern des anderen stehend, reicht 1938 neunmal von der Erde zum Mond!
