ArchitectureWeek Description
An innovative, highly illustrated book that connects materials to designers' needs. By defining a material by its composition rather than current use, the book shows designers how to fully understand the potential and limitations for a material while conceiving of its new application. Organized to follow the model of the Material ConneXion library, the chapters are on: metals, glass, ceramics, polymers, natural materials, carbon-based materials, and cement-based materials.
