Introduction : diagrams -- Introduction : Histories and theories of the diagrams of architecture / Part I : Histories and theories of the diagrams of architecture. Part I : Diagrams -- Diagrams of diagrams : architectural abstraction and modern representation / Scientific management and the birth of the functional diagram / Urban diagrams and urban modelling / Dummy text, or the diagrammatic basis of contemporary architecture / Diagram : an original scene of writing / Poetics of the ideogram / Diagrams in multisensory and phenomenological architecture / The hammer and the song / Part II : multidisciplinary dimensions of the diagrams of architecture. Part II : Diagrams -- Diagramming the interior / Diagrams in landscape architecture / Inhabiting the forest of symbols : from diagramming the city to the city as diagram / Diagrams and their future in urban design / Diagrams in structural engineering : applied diagrams, engineering precision / Spatial notation and the magical operations of collage in the post-digital age / Part III : Architects of the diagrams of architecture. Part III : Diagrams -- The diagrams of Bernard Tschumi / The diagrams and the becoming unmotivated of the sign / Expressive abstractions : the diagrams of Will Alsop / Diagrams / Diagramming the contemporary : OMA's little helper in the quest for the new / Between ideas and matters : icons, indexes, diagrams, drawings and graphs / Metacity/Datatown / Atlas of novel tectonics / Parametric diagrams / NOX diagrams / Part IV : Epilogues. Part IV : Diagrams -- Architectural evolution : the pulsations of time / Epilogue (A beginning of other diagrams of architecture and the futures of the diagrams of architecture) / Select bibliography -- Index.

"Diagrams of Architecture is the first anthology to represent - through texts and diagrams - the histories, theories and futures of architecture through the diagram." "Spanning the Pre-historic to the Parametric, Diagrams of Architecture illustrates over 250 diagrams and brings together 26 previously published and newly commissioned essays from leading international academics, architects, theorists and professional experts. These combine to define the past and future of the diagram's discourse. Prefaced with a critical introduction by Mark Garcia, each text investigates a central concept or dimension of the diagram ranging from socio-cultural studies, science, philosophy, technology, CAD/CAM, computing and cyberspace and virtual/digital design to methodology, environment/sustainability and phenomenological, poetic and art architecture; as well as interior, urban, engineering, interactive and landscape design."--BOOK JACKET.
