Coles Michele De Lucchi & AMDL Circle: Earth Stations: Future Sharing Architectures at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
A former Memphis designer’s visionary new architecture This book looks at the Earth Stations of the legendary Italian designer and architect Michele De Lucchi (born 1951) and his multidisciplinary studio AMDL Circle. The Earth Stations are a new typology of building conceived to foster productive human relationships—living monuments created to celebrate the importance of humanity, where people can experience meaningful collective existence. The book puts this new building typology in dialogue with experts from a variety of disciplines, who reflect on the ways that spaces are designed.
“What can we as architects do for the world to come?” asks De Lucchi here. “If we do not get used to thinking with a sustainability mindset, building the greenest house in the world will not make the slightest difference, because inside we will be continuing to behave like irresponsible consumers. Consequently, we must intervene with a new way of thinking, through the qualities of the space we can foster that mutually beneficial behavior that enables people to get along well together.”
