Paige Kontrafouris: The Art of the Find

The Art of the Find

Guide to Affordable, Designer-Worthy Home Decor with Thrifted Finds and DIY Projects

A stylish guide to art of 'house hushing' and how to dial down the visual 'noise' in your home through decluttering, curating your possessions, shopping more mindfully and decorating with calming colors. “‘House hushing' is a new interiors trend that's making (the right kind of) noise in these troubling times."&nbsp;Guardian A beautiful, authoritative guide to the concept of house hushing,&nbsp;The Quiet Home&nbsp;incorporates design principles and strategies for dialing down the visual noise in your home, and creating serene interiors that promote calm and wellbeing. It takes a pared-down, thoughtful approach to home interiors and explains how to create spaces that whisper rather than shout. The Quiet Home&nbsp;takes as its starting point the idea that everything in an interior has a voice and creates noise. By reducing this visual noise through thoughtful design principles and strategies we can create a more serene living environment that in turn increases our wellbeing. A concept that delves deeper than aesthetic principles and how a home looks, quietening the spaces we live in can greatly affect how we feel. The book offers a guide to hushing our homes covering mindful minimalism, the art of editing, spatial design, and room-by-room strategies. It provides insights for both creating a quiet home and adopting a more considered way of life. It begins with five key principles that provide a framework for the concept - Soothing Color, Natural Elements, Tactility, Soft Shapes and Flexibility, then, chapter by chapter, presents detailed methods for cultivating quiet spaces. with chapters on Mindful Minimalism, The Art of the Edit, Room by Room and Quiet Perspectives. Analysis of the work of renowned designers and brands offers further insights, along with beautiful imagery that takes the reader on a global journey of inspiring homes and design. A comprehensive guide to read cover to cover, the book's chapters can also be read in any order, providing clear reference points for a range of home projects, large or small. &nbsp;

House Hushing for Calm and Intentional Living

The Quiet Home

Offers a bold and materially grounded rethinking of design with artificial intelligence, and proposes a new model of agency distributed across material, artificial, and human actors Rooted in material philosophy and ecological design thinking, Material and Artificial Intelligence in Architecture establishes a comprehensive framework for understanding AI in architecture. Conceptually rigorous yet accessibly written and visually rich, the bookinterweaves design, theory, technology, and practice to explore how artificial intelligence, material agency, and human authorship will co-create the built environment of the future. Challenging both pervasive fear-driven narratives and techno-solutionist hype that dominate public discourse around AI, the book proposes a new plane of engagement--introduced as Shared Materiality. This concept recognizes the entangled agency of human, artificial, and material actors. It also addresses the ethical, ecological, and social implications of AI technologies, including the vast energy demands of AI systems, embedded algorithmic bias, and broader concerns about systemic inequity and access. Specifically within the field of architecture, it critiques the dominance of image-based AI in current architectural discourse and practice, redirecting attention to geometry, morphology, and structure--fundamental spatial dimensions of architecture--and discusses emerging AI models that engage these domains. Drawing on the author's extensive teaching and research experience, Material and Artificial Intelligence in Architecture discusses: ● Theory, technology, and design a rare integration of architecture's core domains, combining deep conceptual framing, technological insight, and advanced experimentation in design. ● Comprehensive conceptual framework: for understanding AI in architecture, rooted in new materialist thought and philosophical realism. ● AI intuition cultivating future designers' ability to collaborate with AI through attuned expertise rather than control. ● Advanced methodologies for Urban Design and Urban Housing design with a detailed presentation of speculative studio work that integrates AI, robotic fabrication, and material practice. ● Critique of typology in architecture proposing instead an open taxonomy: a dynamic, adaptive classification system that aligns with the distributed logic of AI systems. ● Critique of image-based AI in architecture: advocating geometry-based approaches that emphasize spatio-tectonic reasoning, material articulation, and spatial intelligence. ● Ethical and ecological implications of AI systems: addressing authorship, access, equity, energy consumption, algorithmic bias, and the extractive infrastructures underlying current technologies. Material and Artificial Intelligence in Architecture delivers cutting-edge insights for architects, design enthusiasts, and interdisciplinary readers interested in the intersection of design, philosophy, and artificial intelligence. It is also highly suitable for students, educators, and researchers in architecture and design, with particular relevance to graduate-level and post-professional programs.

The Complete Guide to Home Permaculture

Award-winning Dene activist and writer Katlia teaches us Indigenous ways to protect Mother Earth from destruction.The Dene in Canada’s North West territories have lived alongside nature for many generations. From battling environmental racism on the front lines of historical environmental protests, to innovating sustainable resources, to living a balanced life through effective individual and collective governance, the Dene have long protected Mother Earth from destruction through their intricate knowledge systems, natural laws, and age-old principles.Now more than ever, institutions and citizens alike are seeking out and relying on the resilience of Indigenous knowledge systems to help solve the climate crisis. This book brings together a diverse group of Dene elders on the subject of climate change to answer the calls for help. Adhering proudly to these responsibilities and values, Katlia (pronounced cat-lee-ah) writes a Dene manifesto fit to address the state of emergency we’re in. Informed by Katlia's decades-long award-winning work and advocacy as a writer and activist, and her life experiences as a Dene woman from the north, this book achieves global relevance by focusing on the local.This is ancient information, but it’s new to those outside the Dene community, and Katlia's voice channels our collective energy toward surprisingly simple scalable solutions such as:<ul><li>sustainable, ethical food sources as a path toward food sovereignty</li><li>intermittent renewables and innovative alternatives to heat and power homes</li><li>housing systems incorporating green technologies into cultural ways of knowing that include living off grid</li><li>cultural burning to mitigate out of control wildfires</li></ul>With evidence of how this all works for the Dene people, we see how it might work for us as well. This generous, pragmatic, and hopeful book shows us how to find coexistence with Mother Earth and embrace the wisdom of our local Indigenous communities.Mother Earth Is Our Elder features 10 original black-and-white photographs.
