We the Bacteria: Notes Toward Biotic Architecture baixar o livro de graça

How architecture must learn to coexist with bacterial life, from the authors of the bestselling Are We Human?

This provocative book is a manifesto for an alternative architectural philosophy. It treats bacteria as the real architects, construction workers, maintenance crews and inhabitants of buildings. Spanish American architectural historian Beatriz Colomina and New Zealand-born architect Mark Wigley draw on the latest research to rethink the past and possible futures of the built environment, exploring the intimate entanglements of the microbes within bodies and buildings over the last 10,000 years, culminating in the antibiotic philosophy of contemporary architecture. Hostility to bacteria must give way to new forms of hospitality from a more symbiotic architecture that learns from bacteria, embracing them and reconnecting with soil, plants and other species. The main goal of the book is to rethink the very idea of shelter in terms of forms of inclusion rather than prophylactic forms of exclusion.
