Set to open in 2023, British-Ghanaian architect David Adjaye has debuted designs for the Africa Institute’s new campus in Sharjah in the UAE. Acting as a central hub for PhD students, it features a library, archives and lecture and performance halls for visiting scholars and artists. Inspired by North African domestic architecture, Adjaye chose red bricks to reflect the iron oxide-rich soil. Lofted tower blocks over open courtyards with pools and gardens provide naturally cool environments

Review:

"A challenging, accessible and extremely thought-provoking volume which raises a plethora of critical questions about the future of space and power that ought to cause geographers to question too-comfortable theoretical suppositions."
British Journal of Sociology

"There is much within its impressive content that I believe can be of interest to group analysts. This book is steeped in historical appreciation and detail."
Group Analysis

" Space and Power is a compelling and often witty critique of 'the end of geography' thesis, and a searching examination of the contemporary relevance of the work of Febvre and Vidal de la Blache. An important book by a truly first-rate thinker."
Stuart Corbridge, London School of Economics and Political Science

Pottmann, Helmut (2007) Architectural Geometry.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Geometry, the word brings images of lines, points, circles, squares, and other shapes and forms to one's mind. Geometry has an impact on our day-to-day life. Everything around us is a measurement, either defined or perceived, with a visual impression. In the same way, architecture is a domain that majorly deals with geometry and visuals. It plays a vital role in design as well as construction. Euclidean geometry was the only one used for over two thousand years. Now, there are many different aspects developed with time-projective geometry, perspective, Cartesian geometry, trigonometry, fractal geometry, differential geometry, typology, etc. are some of them.

Galileo Galilei says," The book of nature is written in the language of mathematics." Le Corbusier's design philosophy has revolved around harmony and proportion. His utter faith prevailsin the mathematical order of the universe and nature, connected to the Fibonacci Series and the golden ratio which he described as "rhythms apparent to the eye and clear in their relations with one another." These rhythmic patterns are inevitably seen in human activities. Hence, he developed an anthropometric system of Modulor, which goes by the principles of the golden ratio and divine proportion.

Below are the most notable buildings starring the influence of geometry in architecture.

The world-renowned monument displays a golden ratio in the width of its facade with a grand central arch and the heights of the windows. Mughal architecture has a particular mathematical order and astounding aesthetics with perfect symmetry and harmony.

2. Farnsworth House, Plano, Illinois

The incredibly gorgeous Farnsworth house by Mies van der Rohe is an authentic display of golden proportions in every aspect of design, from the floor plan, deck plan, overhangs of the roof to elevations, the house is in classic sync with nature.

3. Rietveld Schroder House, Netherlands

A notable example in the De Stijl movement, which emphasizes on proportions, is constructed using rectilinear Euclidean geometries. The geometrical lengths and widths of the house in plan suffice the 1:1.618 criteria of the golden ratio with the color palette depicting De Stijl's style of architecture.

4. Parthenon, Athens, Greece

Dedicated to the Greek goddess Athena, Parthenon characterizes harmony with the building's ideal proportions. The 9:4 width to height ratio depicts the vertical and horizontal proportions; the elements of its facade can be seen symbolizing golden rectangles.

One of the tallest and freestanding structures in the world, although modern, is designed with consideration of the golden ratio. With varied geometrical forms and shapes, the ratio of the observation deck to the total height is 0.618. The design is unique with a balanced structure.

6. Notre Dame Cathedral, Paris

The cathedral is the most beautiful example of French Gothic architecture, which reflects golden proportions in the heights of each stage of the structure. A similar ratio is seen in the width of the columns at the top, making it an eye-pleasing design.

7. United Nations Building, New York

With the use of the mathematics ofdimensions, the building facade extensively incorporates the golden ratio bringing in the principles of harmony and proportions derived by Le Corbusier.

The geodesic domes made up of hexagonal and pentagonal cells comprise greenhouses. The structure, derived from phyllotaxis (the mathematical basis for plant growth), also implements the Fibonacci sequence in its design. This project shows thatmath in nature and architecture walks synchronically.

9. La Sagrada Familia, Barcelona, Spain

Sagrada Familiafeatures a magic square in which the numbers in columns, rows, and diagonals sum up to 33. An outstanding structure of Gaudi's architecture seamlessly connects geometry, nature, and organic elements.

10. Pyramid of Giza, Egypt

The Great Pyramid of Giza is amongst the most significant and oldest structures, featuring a golden triangle with a height to base ratio of 0.636. The King's chamber is designed based on the Pythagorean triangle and is the most stable structural form. Mathematics makes the design more interesting as the perimeter of the pyramid is 365.24 - the number of days in the year.

11. Sydney Opera House, Australia

Sydney Opera House is appealing through its repetitive geometry and simplicity. The roof designs evolve from parabolic, ellipsoid to finally spherical geometry for the final form of the building shells.

12. Philips Pavilion, Brussels, Belgium

A modern approach in design using technology backed with a mind-boggling geometrical collection of asymmetrical hyperbolic paraboloids is something that won't go unnoticed.

13. Guggenheim Museum, Bilbao, Spain

A display of varied and unconventional shapes and forms not only raises the curiosity of understanding the structure but makes us recognize the treasures of geometrical implementation. The random configuration of the building mimicking a ship and the titanium panels, which look like fish scales is achieved with Computer Aided Three-dimensional Interactive Application.

A 78-feet tall structure is based on the astrological system with 52 panels on each side of the pyramid representing the number of years in the Mayan Cycle. It also depicts the Mayan Calendar and the Solar year, thus extending the geometric correlation with astrology, extending into architecture.

15. The Gherkin, London, UK

Structured with the help of CAD and parametric modelling, the Gherkin is now a unique piece in London's city skyline. The unusual and round building with spiral design gives an illusion of being a shorter one.

16. Cathedral of Brasilia

A crown-like hyperboloid that looks like clasped to the ground is a stunning geometrical creation by Oscar Niemeyer.

17. Santa Maria Novella, Florence, Italy

With basic geometrical figures and platonic philosophy, the structure is a beautiful series of harmonious relationships. The facade is reflecting the influence of geometry and mathematics applied to nature and art.

18. Virupaksha Temple Gopuram, Hampi, India

With a fractal-like design where the parts resemble the whole, the temple employs symmetrical design known as mandalas. Complex calculations and integration with nature, using geometric patterns and alignments form the structure.

19. Eiffel Tower, Paris, France

With hundreds of triangles and parallelograms, Eiffel is one of the ideal examples of geometry and technology. A pyramid-like geometric shape on four sides with four large half-circles on each side is a design wonder.

20. Bauhaus School, Dessau, Germany

Theories in Bauhaus architecture see simple forms in geometry as the basis of natural and organic shapes. The new complex for theBauhaus school is a representation of these theories, which became the emblem of the style.

"The geometry reveals five development directions for applications (each with endless possibilities); dividing, dwelling, trestle, fenestration, and art installation. I find these enabled designs so reflective of an ever-changing world where contextual factors and technological resources are shifting definitions of architecture, design, and the traditional boundaries between disciplines."

Tanvi Saraf, an architect who believes that every space has a story, waiting to be narrated. Always looking to make a tiny effort to connect the dots through experiences.

In 2004, TEN Arquitectos was chosen to carry out the renovation of the Chopo University Museum, which had not been modified since 1975 when the engineer Francisco de Pablo Galán spearheaded the transformation of the property, which for several years in the 1960s had experienced considerable deterioration and even partial abandonment.

Always having respect for the emblematic structure of the building as our main premise, our architectural program was based on an expansion that took the form of a volume inside the original structure. The canopy remains intact and functions as a framework that wraps the added volume. From the outside, the only indication of the "invasion" - which doubles the museum's area - is a small portion of the insert. This fragment stretches across one of the pavilion's walls as a silent reminder of its metamorphosis. In the end, the original building remains intact and yet is completely altered by its new occupant.

Managed by the National Autonomous University of Mexico, the museum is the scene of the most avant-garde art forms in the city, a space for the performing arts, installations, concerts, events, and even film shoots.

Project "Re-Villa"，aims to serve the elderly in the new era， by transforming Villa Arconati into a new pension base. The project is a comprehensive old-age pension base, which integrates housing, nursing care, social entertainment and other functions. In the new pension spaces, the elderly in Milan can enjoy an open and diversified old age. Meanwhile, we chose Villa Arconati as our project base, restoring Villa Arconati's historic glory through the renovation and re-functionalization of historic buildings, made as a new pension base in Milan, rebuilding the connection between humanistic architecture and contemporary society. This paper is divided into six chapters, mainly introducing the global aging and pension model, and we have a clear understanding of the future development trend of pension, upon the physical and psychological characteristics of the elderly. Secondly, by analyzing the historical reasons, current situation, characteristics and learning cases of Italian aging, starting from the needs of the new generation of elderly people, we believe that we should actively put forward the pension solution in the compatible mode of home-based and community-based pension, and obtain a more suitable pension base for their current and future needs. Moreover, through the study of Villa Arconati and the analysis of how to re-function the historical buildings, we are committed to restoring the brilliant time of Villa Arconati. The project is designed into two directions: community kitchen and old-age housing. In Project A, the project aims to provide a new community kitchen that integrates life and social functions for new elderly people. The design concept of the project uses the "intersection" element in the "mathematical set" to create an open community kitchen by combining the elements of life and social interaction. Meanwhile young users can also use community kitchens, so that the lives and social activities of the elderly and young people "intersect", bringing a more vibrant dining space for the elderly, instead of the boring one. This project mainly designs three activity spaces: open kitchen, lounge A and lounge B. In community kitchen, the elderly can improve their diet health, enjoy cooking and make new young friends. In project B, this project is mainly a senior pension center with future smart pension mode, based on home and social entertainment. The residential center is divided into three parts, each with a central space separately. Each part is also divide into residential units and infrastructure ones. The residential one is divided into three types, single rooms, double rooms and suites, which can accommodate up to 72 households living together. Everyone can enjoy an open and diversified old age in familiar family life. Moreover, it provides a whole, complete and seamless smart home system, upon the elderly users' living scene, with AIOT technology.

"Re-Villa"，il progetto mira a servire gli anziani nella nuova era trasformando Villa Arconati in una nuova base pensionistica. Il progetto è una base pensionistica completa per la vecchiaia, che integra alloggi, manutenzione, intrattenimento sociale e altre funzioni.Nel nuovo spazio pensionistico, gli anziani di Milano possono godere di una vecchiaia aperta e diversificata. Allo stesso tempo, abbiamo scelto Villa Arconati come base del nostro progetto.La gloria storica di Villa Arconati è stata restaurata attraverso la ristrutturazione e la re-funzionalizzazione degli edifici storici. Rendilo una nuova base pensionistica a Milano, ricostruisci il legame tra l'architettura umanistica e la società contemporanea. Questo tesi è diviso in sei capitoli, principalmente introducendo il modello globale di invecchiamento e pensione. Allo stesso tempo, sulla base delle caratteristiche fisiche e psicologiche degli anziani, abbiamo una chiara comprensione della tendenza di sviluppo futura della pensione.In secondo luogo, analizza le ragioni storiche, la situazione attuale, le caratteristiche e i casi di apprendimento dell'invecchiamento italiano. Partendo dai bisogni della nuova generazione di anziani, riteniamo che dovremmo proporre attivamente la soluzione previdenziale sotto la modalità compatibile di pensioni basate sulla casa e su base comunitaria, e ottenere una base pensionistica più adeguata per le loro esigenze attuali e future .Allo stesso tempo, attraverso lo studio di Villa Arconati e l'analisi di come ri-funzionare gli edifici storici, ci impegniamo a ripristinare il brillante periodo di Villa Arconati. Il progetto di design è diviso in due direzioni: cucina comunitaria e alloggi per anziani. Nel progetto A, il progetto mira a fornire una nuova cucina comunitaria per persone nuove e anziane che integri le funzioni sociali e di vita.Il concetto di design del progetto utilizza l'elemento "intersezione" nel "set matematico" per creare una cucina comunitaria aperta combinando gli elementi della vita e l'interazione sociale.Allo stesso tempo, i giovani utenti possono anche utilizzare le cucine della comunità, in modo che le vite e le attività sociali degli anziani e dei giovani "si intersechino". Dì addio allo spazio della sala da pranzo noioso per gli anziani, in modo che lo spazio da pranzo per gli anziani sia più vivace.Questo progetto progetta principalmente tre spazi di attività: cucina aperta, salone A e salone B. Nella cucina comune, gli anziani possono migliorare la loro dieta dietetica, cucinare e fare nuovi giovani amici. Nel progetto B, questo progetto è principalmente un centro pensionistico senior con saggezza futura e basato sulla pensione e sull'intrattenimento sociale a domicilio.Il centro residenziale è diviso in tre parti, ognuna con uno spazio centrale.Ogni parte è anche un'unità residenziale e unità infrastrutturale. L'unità abitativa è divisa in tre tipi, camere singole e doppie e suite, che possono ospitare fino a 72 famiglie che vivono insieme.Tutti possono godere di una vecchiaia aperta e diversificata nella vita familiare familiare. Allo stesso tempo, fornisce un sistema di casa intelligente completo, completo e senza soluzione di continuità basato sulla scena di vita dell'utente anziano e sulla tecnologia AIOT.
