Communication and Design with the Internet: A Guide for Architects, Planners, and Building Professionals

Jonathan Cohen

Overview

Gives architects the vision and skills needed to take advantage of the new communications technologies

The Internet is beginning to have a profound effect on architectural practice-are you prepared for it? Fundamental changes in the way that architects, clients, and builders communicate with each other have already begun, yet few architects have discovered all the creative opportunities of this new medium. Jonathan Cohen has introduced thousands to the Internet in seminars. In this book, he shows architects and other building professionals how to create and manage Web sites for use in project management, marketing, public relations, and participatory design. He demonstrates how to use the design skills you already possess, or can easily acquire, to develop and implement an Internet strategy for your firm. Web authoring, for example, is presented as a creative design problem, not a daunting technical challenge. A Web site supplements the book with examples, bookmarks, technical data, and other resources.
