Abstract:

"Tectonics as a Process in Architecture explores the dynamic nature of building processes and their impact on architectural tectonics. Authored by Yonca Hurol, a seasoned educator and researcher in architectural tectonics, this book delves into the evolving changes during construction and their potential to foster innovation. Through detailed case studies and theoretical reflections, it offers invaluable insights for academics, students, and professionals, presenting tectonics not merely as an outcome but as an inclusive, collaborative process that enhances architectural quality"-- Provided by publisher.
