Описание:
For over three decades, the firm Toshiko Mori Architects has been dedicated to designing ecological, technologically innovative architecture at the forefront of "the social turn in architecture", as Andres Lepik calls it in the foreword. When the firm's founder Toshiko Mori, a New York local with Japanese roots, joined the Harvard University Graduate School of Design (GSD), she became the first female faculty member. Later she sat as Chair of the Department from 2002 to 2008. Many of her architectural projects have received international acclaim, as has she herself, with awards such as the Architectural Record's 2019 Women in Architecture Award for a design leader, and the AIA/ACSA's Topaz Medallion for Excellence in Architectural Education - the highest distinction for teaching in the field.
The focus of Toshiko Mori Architect Observations is on observations as the foremost, indispensable method in the developmental process of architectural projects. TMA projects are geared toward creating infrastructure for the development of society. The wide sense in which the word infrastructure is used in the book gives an impression of the conceptual nature of Toshiko Mori's work.
In the eight chapters of this publication, projects are introduced which foremost consider social and ecological demands such as community building. Backed by thorough research and engaged with architectural tradition while also questioning industry norms, the projects remain on the cutting edge of the architectural profession. They include a think-thank called VisionArc which Mori founded together with Landon Brown, the award winning Thread and Fass School and Teachers' Residence in Senegal and several curatorial works at the MoMA and Smithsonian museums. The vast variety of projects featured in the publication illustrates Mori's philosophy that there is no universal design solution for every problem, which makes each of her architectural engagements unique.

Описание: This Japanese Philosophy Will Help You Regain Happiness, Appreciate Imperfection, And Lead A Mindful And Decluttered Life
Mainstream culture teaches us to strive for perfection and to want more.
You've probably thrown things away just because they got tiny scratches or other signs of use. You've probably scrolled through endless feeds of perfect bodies, perfect homes, and perfect meals on Instagram and Pinterest - and then you've spent time and money trying to achieve that perfection... and ended up being sad and frustrated.
Let's stop and think whether it's really necessary. Perfection gets boring, so why don't we enjoy the uniqueness of imperfection? People and things age with time, so why don't we accept and appreciate aging as an inevitable part of life?
The Japanses have been doing it for centuries and even invented a name for it: Wabi-Sabi. In short, Wabi-Sabi is about appreciating the beauty and uniqueness of imperfection.
This book will teach you how to incorporate Wabi-Sabi into your mindset and your daily life. This isn't yet another decluttering book that will tell you to throw everything away. This isn't yet another book on minimalism that makes a cult out of empty desks and sterile white walls. Instead, this book will help you notice and cultivate beauty in your life and your possessions.
Here's what you'll learn:
The three principles of Wabi-Sabi
How to apply Wabi-Sabi to your home: minimalism, shabby chic, and more
How to stop obsessing about perfection and lead a relaxed, mindful life
How to gain mental clarity and focus by getting rid of non-essential physical and mental clutter
And much more
Some Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: Isn't Wabi-Sabi just a fancy name for hoarding piles of broken things?
A: No. Wabi-Sabi is about appreciating the beauty of imperfection. Once you're able to do this, you'll naturally tend towards minimalism and discarding non-essential things.
Q: How will Wabi-Sabi make me feel better?
A: Among other things, it will make you more forgiving towards yourself and others. Besides, practicing Wabi-Sabi will boost your physical health because you'll get a brand new perspective on nutrition and exercise. There are many other benefits - just try Wabi-Sabi and see for yourself
Are you ready to embrace the beauty of imperfection?

Автор: Mori Yoshikazu Название: Mechatronics for Wheelchair Users ISBN: 6202528311 ISBN-13(EAN): 9786202528313 Издательство: Неизвестно Рейтинг: Цена: 9411.00 р. Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ.
Описание: This book discusses surmounting steps and transferring for wheelchair users. Three kinds of ideas based on mechatronics are introduced. The first idea is a pair of step-climbing units that can be installed in a standard manual wheelchair. The lightweight units do not prevent folding of the wheelchair, therefore, loading a wheelchair fixed with these units into a car is easy. The second one is a portable patient lift that is small and light, sufficient to be carried using a wheelchair in a folded state. It is compact, light, and portable because it has no actuator. Moreover, its operation is simple. It is useful not only at home or in a nursing home, but on any flat surface during daily excursions and activities, even in a conventional lavatory. The last one is a wheelchair with a lifting function designed to assist a caregiver when transferring a wheelchair user not only indoors but also outdoors. The target user is typically a severely disabled person with disabled upper and lower limbs. The user can approach above the toilet stool or the bed from the rear because the large driving wheels are in front of the body and the seat can be folded.
