Summary

"Nomadic Tiny Challenges" delves into the intricate world of mobile architecture, focusing on the critical aspects of transporting tiny houses across different jurisdictions. This comprehensive guide tackles the often-overlooked challenges of moving small-scale dwellings, combining structural engineering principles, regulatory requirements, and practical transportation logistics into a systematic approach for successful relocation.

 
The book uniquely bridges the gap between theoretical design and real-world mobility by organizing its content into three essential sections. Beginning with structural considerations, it examines load-bearing calculations and material stress factors crucial for mobile conditions. The text then navigates through the complex landscape of transportation regulations, offering detailed insights into state-specific requirements and permit processes. The final section provides practical implementation strategies, including route planning and equipment selection, supported by real-world case studies and technical drawings.

 
What sets this resource apart is its interdisciplinary approach, combining architectural design principles with mechanical engineering requirements while addressing regulatory compliance. Written for both professionals and informed enthusiasts, the book maintains technical accuracy while remaining accessible through clear diagrams and step-by-step procedures. Its focus on structures under 400 square feet in North American jurisdictions makes it an invaluable resource for tiny house builders, designers, and DIY enthusiasts planning to navigate the complexities of mobile housing solutions.

On the Boardwalk

Martin Sherman

A memoir from the writer of BENT with a foreword by Ian McKellen 
 
Sherman takes us on a journey through America in the mid twentieth century, starting in New Jersey – where he was born in the 1930s to a Jewish immigrant family – ending on Broadway with the premier of his seminal play Bent starring Richard Gere. On route, we encounter other famous performers including Meryl Streep, Bee Gees, Joan Baez, but the scene-stealing character is always his father – a charismatic narcissist who might have given Trump a run for his money. We stop off in Woodstock, Los Angeles and London – a city Martin would eventually make home; he relays his story with self-depreciating humour as he struggles to make it in theatre, with his sexuality, and under the shadow of the inheritable disease that killed his mother tragically early – a disease from which he finds himself finally free, as he turns forty in the book's closing pages.

Fin-De-Siecle Vienna - Politics...

Carl E. Schorske

A Pulitzer Prize Winner and landmark book from one of the truly original scholars of our time: a magnificent revelation of turn-of-the-century Vienna where out of a crisis of political and social disintegration so much of modern art and thought was born.

"Not only is it a splendid exploration of several aspects of early modernism in their political context; it is an indicator of how the discipline of intellectual history is currently practiced by its most able and ambitious craftsmen. It is also a moving vindication of historical study itself, in the face of modernism's defiant suggestion that history is obsolete." —David A. Hollinger, History Book Club Review

"Each of the seven separate studies can be read separately....Yet they are so artfully designed and integrated that one who reads them in order is impressed by the book's wholeness and the momentum of its argument." —Gordon A. Craig, New Republic

"A profound work...on one of the most important chapters of modern intellectual history." —H.R. Trevor-Roper, front page, New York Times Book Review

"Invaluable to the social and political historian...as well as to those more concerned with the arts." —John Willett, New York Review of Books

"A work of original synthesis and scholarship. Engrossing." —Newsweek

This audiobook is expertly read by Caroline Hewitt, with audio engineering by Sam Platt. It was produced and published by Echo Point Books & Media, an independent bookseller in Brattleboro, Vermont.

Blue Architecture - Water Design...

Brook Muller

2023 PROSE Award in Architecture and Urban Planning 
 
 
 
Le Corbusier famously said, "A house is a machine for living in." We now confront the litany of environmental challenges associated with the legacy of the architectural machine: a changing climate, massive species die-off, diminished air and water quality, and resource scarcities. Brook Muller offers an alternative: water-centric urban design that fosters sustainability, equity, and architectural creativity. 
 
 
 
Inspired by the vernacular, such as the levadas of Madeira Island and both the arid and drenched places of the American West, Muller articulates a "hydro-logical" philosophy in which architects and planners begin by conceptualizing interactions between existing waterways and the spaces they intend to develop. From these interactions—and the new technologies and approaches enabling them—aesthetic, spatial, and experiential opportunities follow. Not content merely to work around sensitive ecology, Muller argues for genuinely climate-adapted urban landscapes in which buildings act as ecological infrastructure that actually improve watersheds while delivering functionality and beauty for diverse communities. Rich in practical examples, Blue Architecture will change the way we think about our designed world.
