Inside their spaces, objects participated in the construction of their own categories. Such facts were, as Yanni shows, explicit and clear to those who built, and paid for, such buildings, and who had in mind very fixed (if also very contested) visions of what architecture can say ]]> 2016-12-23 14:56:09 UTC https://padlet.com/squirek/ca6rpx95rmg/wish/144743826 manufacturing trade https://padlet.com/squirek/ca6rpx95rmg/wish/144743827  , no one seeing the Crystal Palace could infer from that ferrovitreous masterpiece anything less than adoration for manufacturing and trade.

In optics, transparency refers to a material that transmits light so that we can see through it. In architecture, this usually translates into the use of glass as the primary building material, but other materials are also transparent, such as crystal or �nely woven and diaphanous fabrics, or lattice screens. ]]> 2016-12-23 14:56:09 UTC https://padlet.com/squirek/ca6rpx95rmg/wish/144743857 https://padlet.com/squirek/ca6rpx95rmg/wish/144743858  glass and steel construction techniques of nineteenth-century greenhouses, exhibition pavilions, and floras
