represent the starting point for every product and every architectural
work. The book is an encyclopaedic compendium of around 1,000
terms in this field, from aerogel to marble to zirconium. It features
traditional and frequently used materials, as well as new and obscure
materials. Their respective advantages and disadvantages are precisely
described. In addition, terms related to production processes, such as
upcycling or tanning, that describe the properties of materials or are
closely related to the topic have also been included.
