Description

Explore the deep connection between magic and the built environment in The Architect as Magician. Part of the Routledge Research in Architecture series, this book examines how a better understanding of magic can provide new insights into the design processes used by architects. Just as magicians perform rituals to influence the forces of nature, architects shape the effects of nature through the construction of buildings. This text argues that architects can benefit from incorporating concepts from magic into their own creative workflows. By looking at both historical and current examples, the book demonstrates how these two seemingly different fields share significant common ground. It is an essential read for those interested in architectural theory, criticism, and the philosophical foundations of design.

Analyzes how architects influence nature through building construction, similar to magical rituals.
