Abstract:
This thesis investigates space through its relationship with society based on the idea of the social production of space. By employing the social concepts of community and institution, and the spatial concepts of shelter space and marker space, it provides a theoretical perspective for the evaluation of space in architectural history. This theoretical frame is supplied with a case study on the evolution of Early Christian community and their meeting place.

Dans le même temps, ils indiquent des synergies possibles entre une plus forte motivation sociale et la précocité de la ponte, ou une plus faible réactivité émotionnelle et une productio

Abstract:
The intensification of downtown Vancouver is the result of a structured fiscal, design and planning project. Cardinal to this effort is the realization of public amenities through the development process. However, those involved in the struggle to control the provision of amenities deny that no less than the determination of legitimate public goods is at stake in the contest. Employing Bourdieu's understanding of capital and related description of social space, the objective of the thesis is to examine how amenity production is oriented by the public benefit's utility to the dominant interest

Because of this, classic studies dedicated to the Brazilian case look to present the Southeastern region with the title of father of modern Brazil, at the

Thesis (S.B.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Architecture, 2013.<br>Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.<br>Includes bibliographical references (p. 34).<br>The purpose of this study is to investigate the benefits of adding natural fiber tensile reinforcement to aerated concrete. Concrete is a great composite material which can be created in various proportions and with various materials to alter its strength, density and porosity, amongst other properties. Concrete which is used commonly in construction of columns, beams, and slabs acts well in compression but fails under te

The ability to design and prototype structural forms inspired by nature has challenged architects preconceived notions of space and form. With the assistance of parametric modeling and rapid prototyping we now not only have the ability to physically generate complex forms, but al

Financial meltdowns, the lack of affordable housing, the decline of manufacturing, resource scarcity and global warming - we seem to be immersed in a state of constant emergency, which offers opportunity for design.

Based on the Micro Urbanism, the project is to propose a system of micro architecture that provides ubiquitous ideal public spaces for local inhabitants' daily social activities within Beijing's 25 hutong-preserved districts.
