Produktbeschreibung
Centred around an essay by Roan Ching-Yueh that offers a history of major events in modern Taiwanese architecture, this insightful investigation illustrates the connections between ‘Dao De Jing’, the Chinese classic text fundamental to both philosophical and religious Taoism – as well as a continuing source of inspiration for artists and others today – and topical issues for contemporary building in Taiwan. Social and ecological environments are found to be crucial points for action. Fifteen architects are profiled, each with a distinct style and presented in various thematic contexts through mostly small-scale projects that are free and unrestrained.
