Taylor and Francis Ltd Spatial Transparency in Architecture 1st Edition 2022 by Rosales, Camilo
- Explores spatial transparency as a form of spatial continuity that articulates depth through permeable, layered or porous three-dimensional organizations _x000D_- Divided into four parts: spatial transparency in massive opaque constructions, spatial transparency in light constructions, spatial transparency in glass assemblies and spatial transparency in hybrid systems _x000D_- Presents 20 international case studies and examples, including those from the UK, Europe, North America, South America, India, China and Japan _x000D_- Includes over 150 illustrations to explore significant built works, analytical drawings and comparison charts_x000D_ _x000D_
