Abstract

Some believe windows to take a life of their own, with light and wind behaving in such a way that strangely lures people to dwell by windows. Windows create cultural, urban and social spaces, giving rest, relaxation and rejuvenation to those who seek it. 'Window Behaviorology' tours the world featuring the most enigmatic, alluring and beautiful windows. It provides commentary on the enchanting features of these windows, and how they are a cultural force that restores people's sense of life that creates positive spaces within buildings.

Abstract

In this fourth volume, Atelier Bow-Wow delves into the window behavioural characteristics in nordic architecture, showing how climate and culture are strongly reflected in their windows. The works and influences of six architects are featured: Gunnar Asplund and Sigurd Lewerentz from Sweden, Alvar Aalto from Finland, and from Denmark, Kay Fisker, Arne Jacobsen and Jørn Utzon. After three years of research, the team visited about 235 works and measured 470 windows. 114 selected works are presented with photographs, detailed drawings, and analyses, examining the transformation of window technology and design, and the history and social issues of each country.

Abstract

In this second volume, Atelier Bow-Wow shifts from studying the behavioural characteristics of the window typology to investigating their origins, history, and relationships. How humans experience encounters with each other and the spaces inside and outside buildings is key to deciphering how combinations of context and environmental factors lead to various functions and typologies in different regions. From Belgium, France, Germany, and Spain, to Vietnam, Hong Kong, China, and Japan, the quest spans a variety of buildings and streetscapes, encompassing both the contemporary and historic. The result is a remarkable collection of photographs and analyses.

Abstract

In 2010, architect Tsukamoto Yoshiharu published his first book from the WindowScape series. The book takes on an investigative angle to study windows around the world, as well as the relationship between windows and the local habitudes. The third book of the series is finally released. To prepare for WindowScape 3: Windows and Workspace, Tsukamoto visited studios of many Japanese artisans to explore the role of windows in architecture that serves a particular function.
