Language of templates. Cities. Building. Construction. 3rd edition. Aleksander K., ISIKAVA S., Silverstain M.
In this book, first published in 1977, a radically new approach to architecture and construction is presented. The authors believe that people themselves should design their homes, streets and areas, and this idea is based on simple observation: the most remarkable places on the planet were created not by architects, but by ordinary people. The book describes the “Language” for the design of the environment, the units of which - templates, or patterns - answer architectural questions: what heights to make windows, how many floors should be in the building, what area to take in the microdistrict to trees and lawns.
The publication contains more than 250 templates - each includes a description of a particular problem, its discussion, supported by the illustration, and the decision. With the help of this book, it is possible to design a house for yourself and your family, develop an office project, a working workshop or a public building, together with neighbors to improve your area and even the whole city.
