Solid States

Concrete in Transition

Michael Bell, Craig Buckley

In Solid States: Concrete in Transition, an interdisciplinary group of architects, historians, theorists, engineers, fabricators and materials scientists collectively explore the past, present, and future possibilities of this highly calibrated, fluid material. Solid States presents new theoretical and cultural analyses of concrete architecture, both historically and in the context of newly built work, by Sanford Kwinter, Antoine Picon, Detlef Mertins, Toshiko Mori, Qingyung Ma, Bernard Tschumi and many others. It presents a portfolio of recent and forthcoming achievements in ferro-concrete and it features the latest advancements in materials science, tensile strength, energy expenditure and sustainability, as presented by experts in the field.
