Gothic Architecture, Geometry, And The Aesthetics Of Transcendence, Robert Bork
Gothic Architecture, Geometry, And The Aesthetics Of Transcendence, Robert Bork
UNIversitas: Journal of Research, Scholarship, and Creative Activity
In these remarks I will discuss Gothic architecture, geometry, and what I call the aesthetics of transcendence. I’ll focus mainly on the design of great buildings like Strasbourg Cathedral, whose spire is the tallest surviving work of the Middle Ages, a 466-foot symphony of intricately carved stone. I also want to talk about how I came to study and admire this material, starting out from a curiously backdoor approach involving the sciences. Ultimately, therefore, I will argue that Gothic architecture can be fruitfully compared to a variety of things, such as fractals, heavy metal guitar music, and dinosaurs. These are …

Northwest Arkansas Comprehensive Environmental Analysis And Regional Smart Growth Plan, Nick Cerra, Zac Prange
Northwest Arkansas Comprehensive Environmental Analysis And Regional Smart Growth Plan, Nick Cerra, Zac Prange
Inquiry: The University of Arkansas Undergraduate Research Journal
For the past two decades, Northwest Arkansas has experienced rapid growth and increased urban development; population projections see the continuation of these trends (Wiley, 2010). Environmental conditions in the study area make it particularly sensitive to the effects of urban development, while existing landscape hazards and nuisance land uses jeopardize the quality of the urban form. Despite these phenomena, there is no comprehensive land use analysis or development management plan for Northwest Arkansas. This study presents a comprehensive environmental analysis of three sub-watersheds within the Illinois River watershed in Northwest Arkansas. Based on this analysis, the authors recommend planning overlays …
Investigating 3 Axis Cnc Processes For Creating 3d Objects, Michael Jake Newsum
Investigating 3 Axis Cnc Processes For Creating 3d Objects, Michael Jake Newsum
Inquiry: The University of Arkansas Undergraduate Research Journal
Using 3 axis CNC (computer numerical code) routing processes of the Visualization Lab, the CNC was tested for 3D object milling. The CNC process was designed for manufacturing 2D cut out objects with or without a 3D surface. The processes of modeling the object, using CAM (Computer Aided Manufacturing) programs, producing the Toolpath, post processing, editing G Code, positioning the stock material, and setting the machine origin were tested for an understanding of what changes had to be made to the process to accurately mill and cut out 3D objects. Solutions were discovered through digital and physical setups that are …
Sprawl In The Western United States: Do State Growth Management Programs Reduce Sprawl?, Jenna Nash
Sprawl In The Western United States: Do State Growth Management Programs Reduce Sprawl?, Jenna Nash
McNair Scholars Research Journal
Sprawl is faulted for contributing to excessive commuting and transportation costs, raising the cost of providing infrastructure and other public services (Carruthers, 2002). With the advent of the environmental movement in the 1960s, concern for the impact urban growth was having on the environment caused a surge of growth management legislation that eventually led to several states implementing state growth management programs (SGMPs). While there have been several studies done on the effectiveness of SGMPs in containing sprawl, there have been no studies of state-growth management that focus solely on the Western States, states that have many characteristics in common …
Suan Nai Bangkok And Suan Nok Bangchang: The Emergence And Transformation Of Floating Markets In The Chao Phraya River Delta Of Thailand, Luxana Summaniti, Wannasilpa Peerapun, Khaisri Paksukcharern
Suan Nai Bangkok And Suan Nok Bangchang: The Emergence And Transformation Of Floating Markets In The Chao Phraya River Delta Of Thailand, Luxana Summaniti, Wannasilpa Peerapun, Khaisri Paksukcharern
NAKHARA (Journal of Environmental Design and Planning)
This article aims to analyze the emergence and transformation of orchard-based fl oating markets in Suan Nai Bangkok in Thonburi district, Bangkok and Suan Nok Bangchang, Samut Songkhramprovinces on the west bank of the Chao Phraya River Delta, Thailand. Riverside settlements originated as ridge and groove orchard farming and developed into a complex water network of fl oating markets as the trading centers of the regional community. However, the development of roads as the main routes for transportation has altered the larger regional system from water to land-based distribution and communication. From an analysis using geo-informatics and the Space Syntax …
The Ghostless Garden City: Evaluating The Clean And Green Movement In Singapore, Jun Yi Ong
The Ghostless Garden City: Evaluating The Clean And Green Movement In Singapore, Jun Yi Ong
NAKHARA (Journal of Environmental Design and Planning)
The Garden City image of Singapore is visually projected through roadside tree-planting, parks and nature reserves. This image has been promoted by the Clean and Green Movement, which broadlyrefers to government policies that enforce regulations in relation to cleaning and greening. So far, literature concerning the Movement has focused on promoting the Garden City. On the contrary, this paper argues that the lack of the original sense of place through constructed greenery has lead to the Ghostless Garden City, which can also be seen as being authentic to Singapore.
The Future Needs The Past:Problems And Challenges Of Post-Cataclysm Heritage Management In Kotagede, Jogjakarta Special Province, Indonesia, Widjaja Martokusumo
The Future Needs The Past:Problems And Challenges Of Post-Cataclysm Heritage Management In Kotagede, Jogjakarta Special Province, Indonesia, Widjaja Martokusumo
NAKHARA (Journal of Environmental Design and Planning)
In addition to traditional causes of decay, cultural heritage is increasingly threatened by natural disasters. Earthquakes interrupt the historical continuity of place making and create an opportunityto both reconstruct historical fabrics and to create new meanings and functions. As demonstrated in Kotagede, Jogjakarta Special Province, Indonesia, sustainable conservation should evolve with new contemporary needs and not be about making static museum places. Two case studies of post-calamity reconstruction illustrate the utilization of existing urban fabric, in which through redefi nition and reprogramming do not reveal solutions, but demonstrate the challenges in response to the urban dynamics after the 2006 earthquake.
The Signifi Cance Of Implicit Socio-Cultural Values In Self-Built Housing Transformation, Tareef Hayat Khan
The Signifi Cance Of Implicit Socio-Cultural Values In Self-Built Housing Transformation, Tareef Hayat Khan
NAKHARA (Journal of Environmental Design and Planning)
Households' spatial needs change along with inhabitation. At certain points in time, these needs may reach a critical point when households decide to make changes in the usage of space. Moving or transforming are the two basic options. Studies show that irrespective of location or context, scale or affl uence, users prefer transforming instead of moving. Moreover, transformation can occur more than once during inhabitation. Besides being identifi ed as economicaly a more sustainable option, there are several explicit reasons behind the preference for transformation. But this study goes deeper and investigates the impact of implicit values behind those explicit …
Anthropological View Of Architecture: An Alternative Approach To Study Human Environments, Supakit Yimsrual
Anthropological View Of Architecture: An Alternative Approach To Study Human Environments, Supakit Yimsrual
NAKHARA (Journal of Environmental Design and Planning)
Architectural descriptions mostly focus on the material aspects of a building with relatively little said about the social life of the people who inhabit architecture. In recent decades, many architects andanthropologists have begun to connect architectural works with the development of social and cultural anthropology. The term "architectural anthropology" has been suggested to describe the interrelation between humans and their built environment. Based on historical documents, this paper outlines the development of architectural anthropology and aims to illustrate how this approach can help us to understand the relation between people, their ideas of the world and the creation of a …
Embankment Settlement In Bangladesh: A Study On The Self-Generated Pattern Of Vernacular Architecture, Masud Ur Rashid, Naimul Aziz
Embankment Settlement In Bangladesh: A Study On The Self-Generated Pattern Of Vernacular Architecture, Masud Ur Rashid, Naimul Aziz
NAKHARA (Journal of Environmental Design and Planning)
Due to the erosion caused by the aggressive river Jamuna in Sirajganj, Bangladesh, every year many villagers have move their homes. The poor, who cannot afford land at a safe distance fromthe aggressive river, generally move to the nearby fl ood protection embankment. Without any land ownership, the embankment settlement in some ways appears as a 'rural slum.' But the embankment settlement differs from traditional rural architecture. Scarcity of land and strong linear direction of the embankment control the total organization of the settlement. This paper is focused on the unique features of fl ood embankment settlement as a self …
Thermal Comfort In The Traditional Rural Bangladesh House, Rumana Rashid, Mohd. Hamdan Bin Ahmed, Sayem Khan
Thermal Comfort In The Traditional Rural Bangladesh House, Rumana Rashid, Mohd. Hamdan Bin Ahmed, Sayem Khan
NAKHARA (Journal of Environmental Design and Planning)
Bangladesh Traditional House (BTH) is considered to be a prime example of environmental design responses to regional conditions. The house forms, building styles and materials used in construction have signifi cant variations in different areas of Bangladesh, but one element in common is the design concept for the upper space. The upper space of BTH plays a vital role with diurnal variation of ambient environment to provide comfortable interiors. This paper analyses the above hypothesis in the traditional stilt house in the city of Dhaka. The analysis of actual performance of the traditional house may provide information on the effectiveness …
The Architecture Of Batak Toba: An Expression Of Living Harmoniously, Himasari Hanan, Surjamanto Wonorahardjo
The Architecture Of Batak Toba: An Expression Of Living Harmoniously, Himasari Hanan, Surjamanto Wonorahardjo
NAKHARA (Journal of Environmental Design and Planning)
Batak Toba people have a fi gurative imagination through which they orientate themselves to nature and the surrounding landscape. The architecture of the house is created to create a beautiful fi gure in the natural landscape as well as to act in moderating warm-humid climate. Dramatic roof forms have been developed as an expression of this culturally determined sensitivity towards natural forces and practical wisdom towards thermal comfort. Building a house deals with human needs within a structure of static and living components from the environment. Aesthetic qualities emerge genuinely out of the adaptive process within the corresponding multidimensional aspects …
Ecological Architecture With Vernacular Character: Contemporary Mud Architecture Practices In Bangladesh, Rumana Afroz, Mohammad Zakaria Ibne Razzaque
Ecological Architecture With Vernacular Character: Contemporary Mud Architecture Practices In Bangladesh, Rumana Afroz, Mohammad Zakaria Ibne Razzaque
NAKHARA (Journal of Environmental Design and Planning)
The vernacular construction technique of mud architecture in Bangladesh has been in practice for a long time and forms a major part of rural buildings. However, a lack of formal practice and patronagehas allowed the vernacular techniques to be neglected. Thus the indigenous architecture appears as incompatible with mainstream development and modern knowledge. Therefore, support is necessary to sustain vernacular mud architecture. This paper examines an internationally awarded case study where modern knowledge and ecological building techniques have been initiated as an inter-cultural initiative of mud architecture to improve the current situation. This paper intends to critically investigate how far …
Suburban Self-Suffi Cient Living: An Implementation Of The Philosophy Of Suffi Ciency Economy, Sirimas Hengrasmee
Suburban Self-Suffi Cient Living: An Implementation Of The Philosophy Of Suffi Ciency Economy, Sirimas Hengrasmee
NAKHARA (Journal of Environmental Design and Planning)
Sufficiency signals a combination of having enough and being satisfi ed. In Thailand, the idea of sufficiency has been reintroduced as the philosophy of Sufficiency Economy. Self-reliance and self-sufficiency are playing a big part of its implementation. This paper suggests a hypothetical adaptation of suburban lifestyles under such philosophy, where the immediate environment of the house is considered the main source for exploitation of food, water, and energy. It illustrates the possibility of being more self-reliant at a household level. The link between outcomes and the reduction of environmental impacts through simple Ecological Footprint estimation affirms that practice of self-sufficiency …
