| Summary: | "Nordic Talking unites projects from the last 4 1/2 years in the individual fields of work of the Institute for Experimental Architecture and Building Construction of the University of Innsbruck in Tyrol.The focal points comprise design, building construction, thesis work, competitions and project realization. The heads of the institute during this period were Professor Kjetil Thorsen (Snøhetta Architects, Oslo) and Professor Patrick Schumacher (Zaha Hadid architects, London).At the institute, architecture is considered a cultural-scientific subject in which research can be a creative, applied process. Gathering direct experience with the realization of a project is one of the main points at the institute, along with experimental design and building construction research.Visiting professors make it possible for students to create a worldwide network and have contact with a variety of educational institutions and fields of work.The book documents the best work and expands it with texts and contributions by world-famous architects and theorists."--Publisher's website. |

"Nordic Talking provides an insight into project work--creative spaces--of the various departmental research goals, such as scale 1:1 projects, diploma projects, architectural design, advanced building technologies and competitions taking place in the years 2004 to 2008 under the supervision of Kjetil Thorsen at the institute for experimental architecture. Hochbau with theoretical texts, general statements and project-related commentaries--creative criticism--provided by non-affiliated guests, who regularly reviewed the projects, held lectures, and were therefore in a position to comment and reflect critically on the curriculum and content of this publication."--Page [004]. |
