SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
"Probably for the first time domestic architecture of the whole Arab region to the Gulf, is being considered. In a systematic fashion the factors influencing architecture are analysed and the extent and character of the Arab region are determined. Construction materials and building techniques are reviewed and the evolution of settlement from the nomad's tent to the tightly packed town is discussed. The domestic planning elements are identified, from roof to basement and from the closed cell to systems of courtyards with loggias and galleries. Water and waste management also receive proper attention.
Text of Note
The analytical part is supported by a collection of more than 200 domestic examples from all thirteen countries comprising the Arab region. Having treated the traditional Arab architecture, the author then turns to present times and the impact of the West on Arab architecture. He contrasts Eastern and Western ways of planning and design, largely based upon environmental differences".--BOOKJACKET.
