Perihal e-buku ini
Lighthouse Architecture explores the fascinating intersection of architecture, engineering, and maritime history through the lens of lighthouse design. These iconic structures, essential for maritime navigation and safety, showcase remarkable ingenuity in combating harsh marine environments. For example, the tapering form of spiral towers wasn't just aesthetic; it provided crucial structural stability against powerful sea conditions. The book argues that understanding the interplay between design, engineering, and human needs is key to appreciating the complexity of lighthouses.
The book progresses chronologically and thematically, beginning with the historical context of lighthouses and tracing their evolution from ancient signal fires to sophisticated modern beacons. It details various construction materials, from locally sourced stone to concrete and cast iron, each chosen for its resilience against specific environmental challenges. Supported by architectural plans and historical records, Lighthouse Architecture provides a comprehensive overview of lighthouse design across various geographical locations.
