(Ebook) Discovering Architecture: Built Form as Cultural Reflection by Frank Jacobus ISBN 9781465241788, 1465241787

Architecture is a cultural resultant and reflects the collective cultural pressure that was exerted in order to bring it into existence. Georges Bataille and many others have made note of how architecture acts as a cultural mirror. Whether through a particular sensibility for spatial definition, a material or constructive capability bound to an age, or a reflection of current ideas and events rooted in the panoply of moods, ideas, technologies and rituals of an era, architecture embodies the cultural realities of the age in which it becomes manifest.

Architecture is also personal and intimate. As Michael Benedikt states in For an Architecture of Reality, “buildings with significance are significant to someone, rather than, or in addition to, being symbolic of something.” Every building or architectural type discussed in this book has been personal to someone. e story of architecture is first and foremost a cultural story, and to learn about architecture is to learn about culture.
