    The origin of the ‘living machine’
    Around 1800, one of the most influential architectural concepts of the last 250 years emerged – that of built spaces as technical devices. Climate, morality, and comfort are the three main themes of this study, and each is vividly examined in separate chapters through synchronous comparison and with the help of examples. The emergence of corresponding metaphors, knowledge, and construction forms is traced over a period of about 70 years. The author focuses particularly on the operative dimension of architecture. Thus, the book provides a historical perspective on a key topic for the future of architecture. The book is aimed at readers interested in architecture, technology or the cultural history of building and living.

David A. Garcia

This publication emerges from ‘Architecture and Extreme Environments’, a master’s programme at the Royal Danish Academy that aims to generate a positive impact on the issues our world faces today. Through a site-specific approach, the programme responds to present and future global challenges through research by design, fine-tuned and site-specific strategies, and active fieldwork in remote locations around the world. The book compiles fieldwork investigations, personal and student work, reflective, methodical and personal essays and finally a summary of the MAP Publication issues to date. A selection of these MAP publications will also be reissued and independently available alongside the book.
