New Move: Architecture in Motion

This title takes a new look at contemporary issues in architecture by introducing the category of movement. Adaptive building components and elements shown here extend and make flexible the functions of architectural works, from conserving and gaining energy to reacting to user interaction. More than 50 case studies illustrate types of movement from swivelling, turning and rotating to sliding and folding, using built examples found in contemporary architecture.
