  3. 2. Tectonics & disassembly

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö

    Author : Augusta Blohm; [2022]
    Keywords : Arts and Architecture;

    Abstract : The construction of a building does not always work the way it appears to work. Within a theoretical framework rooted in writings by Eduard Sekler, Karl Bötticher and Martin Heidegger, this thesis presents a discussion on the importance of the tectonic expression when designing a building with the intent that it should be easy to disassemble.
