Architecture for Kids 2 by Horacio Sanchez Pdf

Architecture for Kids 2 is a book that shows an evolution in form and content. In Architecture for Kids 1, I used pictures instead of words to make learning easy and to help you exercise your brain's ability to remember things. Architecture for Kids 2 was designed around the idea of design thinking. As explained in Architecture for Kids 1, design thinking helps architects to design with empathy -- that is, to find out how the design is to be used. If you have empathy with another person that means you can think the same way they do. It is empathy that helps architects understand what their clients need, and to remember that every part of a project has an impact on someone. Architecture is an art and a discipline that helps you transform your creativity and ideas into something real. This book is for you, future architect, or designer. If you decide to follow the architecture path, I can guarantee you that it is going to be an amazing journey!

Architecture for Kids by Horacio Sanchez Pdf

Architecture for Kids is a book dedicated to children interested in architecture or design. It provides a visual learning style that helps to develop a design in thinking mentality and a photographic memory. In other words, kids will learn to see things in a different way, with more detail, focused on the design and space of elements. In this book, the author will show you how architects develop ideas from single forms like squares, rectangles, circles, or even triangles--geometric forms that kids study in school and that can identify in places that kids visit in their daily life or at home. Kids will also see how color, textures, and light play with the other elements create buildings, public spaces, parks or plazas, and cities or landscape. Architecture is an art and a discipline that helps you transform your creativity and ideas into something real. This book is for you, future architect or designer. If you decide to follow the architecture path, I can guarantee you that it is going to be an amazing journey!

What Adults Don’t Know About Architecture by The School of Life Pdf

Children are rarely introduced properly to architecture, but there are in fact few subjects more important – because the quality of the architecture that surrounds us has such an impact on our mood and sense of well-being. The bitter truth is that in modern times, we’ve built a world that’s far too often ugly or uncharming – and we’ve done so because only a very few people ever feel they have the right to comment on what gets built around them. This is a chance for the next generation to develop the tools to talk about architecture with confidence, knowledge and passion. It tells us about what a satisfying building is, what makes a street enticing (or not), why some cities are charming and others repel us – and how we might build going forward in a way that will reliably delight and uplift us. This engaging and beautifully illustrated guide is designed to help children (and their favourite adults) to understand how buildings work and how we might create the better looking world we all crave and deserve.
