Typology

Typology offers a framework for understanding architectural form through recurring spatial patterns. This selection investigates building types—houses, museums, schools—not as static templates but as evolving responses to context, culture, and use. It invites a deeper look at how form and function intersect across time, tradition, and innovation. These books explore typology’s role in shaping architectural identity, tracing historical influences while highlighting contemporary reinterpretations. By analyzing spatial arrangements, material choices, and cultural significance, they reveal how typologies adapt to societal shifts, technological advancements, and evolving user needs, ultimately enriching our appreciation of architecture as a dynamic dialogue between past and present, tradition and experimentation.
