Introduction: Architecture otherwise -- Performances -- Breathing walls -- Unscripted performances -- Materials matter -- Roughness -- Situations -- Table talk -- Sitting in the city -- Practically primitive -- Topographies -- Skylines -- Landings and crossings -- Space in and out of architecture -- Law of meander.
´Renowned writer and thinker David Leatherbarrow argues for a richer and more profound, but also more rational, way of thinking about architecture, namely on the basis of how it performs. Not only how it functions, but how it acts, ´its manner of existing in the world,´ including its effects on the observers and inhabitants of a building as well as on the landscape that situates it. In the process, Leatherbarrow transforms our way of discussing buildings from a passive technical or programmatic assessment to an active and engaged examination of the lives and performances of buildings, intended and otherwise.´--BOOK JACKET.
