Publisher: Amsterdam : The Architecture Observer, ©2018Copyright date: ©2018Description: 159 pages : illustrations (some color), plans, portraits ; 24 cm.Content type: text | still image Media type: unmediated Carrier type: volumeISBN: 9789492058065.Subject(s): Diederendirrix (Firm) -- Catalogs | Architecture -- History -- Designs and plansGenre/Form: Architectural drawings. | Catalogs. | History. | Print books.Summary: Architecture builds upon history. Even the avant-gardist creed to 'make it new' still assumes a past. It is impossible to imagine novelty without an awareness of what existed before. This is even more true for the reuse and appropriation of existing structures, where designers take a stance relative to the past. In their transformation projects the office of diederendirrix architects retell stories of buildings and sites - by paraphrasing part of the story, by recasting central actors, by making architecture speak in other words. In so doing, they make it anew.
