It documents an Erasmus+ collaboration among five European architecture schools and reflects on design-and-build workshops held in Amsterdam, Trondheim and Volos.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach workshop explored a different side of circular practice: sourcing and understanding materials, reusing components and reusing whole structures. Through hands-on work with reclaimed material and real construction constraints, the book shows how circular thinking can move to the centre of the design studio.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDocuments a five-school European education project\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorkshops in Amsterdam, Trondheim and Volos\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCovers material sourcing, component reuse and structural reuse\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIllustrated throughout with workshop documentation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat You'll Discover\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat 'availability-based design' means in practice\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow design-and-build workshops teach circular thinking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorking with reclaimed materials and real constraints\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModels for embedding reuse in architecture curricula\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMario Rinke and Frederik Vandyck edit the volume, drawing together the reflections of the teachers and students from the five European architecture schools behind the Crafting Circularity project.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Softcover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: 180 × 270 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePages: 192\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLanguage: English\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eISBN: 9783986123338\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePublisher: JOVIS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect For:\u003c\/strong\u003e Architecture educators, students and practitioners interested in reuse, circular construction and studio teaching.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"JOVIS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51123256361185,"sku":"9783986123338","price":90.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1116\/0464\/files\/9783986123338.jpg?v=1792730741","url":"https:\/\/bookshopbyuro.com\/products\/crafting-circularity-rethinking-sustainable-design-and-construction-in-architecture-education","provider":"Bookshop by Uro","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
