On Weathering illustrates the complex nature of the architectural project by taking into account its temporality, linking technical problems of maintenance and decay with a focused consideration of their philosophical and ethical implications.In a clear and direct account supplemented by many photographs commissioned for this book, Mostafavi and Leatherbarrow examine buildings and other projects from Alberti to Le Corbusier to show that the continual refinishing of the building by natural forces adds to, rather than detracts from, architectural meaning. Their central discovery, that weathering makes the "final" state of the construction necessarily indefinite, challenges the conventional notion of a building's completeness.By recognizing the inherent uncertainty and inevitability of weathering and by viewing the concept of weathering as a continuation of the building process rather than as a force antagonistic to it, the authors offer alternative readings of historical constructions and potential beginnings for new architectural projects.Mohsen Mostafavi is Associate Professor of Architecture and Director of the Master of Architecture I Program at the Graduate School of Design, Harvard University. David Leatherbarrow is Chairman of the Department of Architecture and of the Program in Urban Design at the Graduate School of Fine Arts, University of Pennsylvania.

评分90年代的文风还很情怀的样子,一句是一句的。建筑表面的衰颓,质感的暴露,一定程度上构成了现代意义上的纪念性。斑驳粗糙构成时间感,时间感构成距离感,距离感构成崇高感,崇高感构成纪念性。因此20世纪初才会有Zyklopenstil。
评分对于建筑生命的关怀在其中。

评分Some age, some only die. Buildings and human are alike. But, wait, isn’t that refusal to aging a modern way of aging?
