What is Architecture About? - Pier Paolo Tamburelli

Pier Paolo Tamburelli presents his latest book 'What is Architecture About?' as part of the Architecture Foundation's 2023 Book Week. "In this collection of idiosyncratic lessons, architect and teacher Pier Paolo Tamburelli engages with the very foundations of architecture, proposing a series of new and open-ended perspectives on how we build the world. Developed for the ‘Grundkurs’, or ‘basic course’, at Vienna Technical University, Tamburelli’s lessons are presented through the annotated sketches that form the basis of his lectures – variously rough and precise, sarcastic and sincere, and always uniquely expressive." ABOUT THE ARCHITECTURE FOUNDATION For over 30 years, the Architecture Foundation has brought together professionals from across the built environment to discuss and act on issues related to design and the built environment. With a renewed focus on the city and the critical intersection of architecture and politics, the Architecture Foundation works to effect meaningful change on policy and practice. » Sign up to our monthly newsletter http://www.architecturefoundation.org.uk » Support the work of The Architecture Foundation, by donating or becoming a member: http://architecturefoundation.nationbuilder.com » The AF Store https://shop.architecturefoundation.org.uk/ » Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/architecturefoundation/ » Twitter: https://twitter.com/ArchFoundation » Download the London Architecture Guide for iPhone https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/london-architecture-guide/id1179176485 » Download the London Architecture Guide for Android https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=uk.org.architecturefoundation.londonguide&showAllReviews=true
