Journalist and writer, Will Jones, presents a complete guide to past and present architecture and urban history of the city of New York. Organized chronologically and by the architectural style, Reading New York: a crash course in architecture major studios and catalogs Apple an exorbitant amount of historic buildings, monuments and other built environments that are characteristic of New York. In addition, the book also highlights many lesser known architectural housing intrigue. Including over 430 illustrations and drawings deftly drawn, the book contains a map section that suggests several walking tours throughout the city. The 256-page guide is available from Rizzoli sometime in February 2012. Acetate and nitrate film requires optimal conditions for permanent retention and can easily burn if not protected properly. BFI knew they needed to store your movies in the best condition, so Edward Cullinan Architects asked to conduct a feasibility study and offer recommendations. The London-based firm BFI suggests that construction of new facilities to consolidate its collection rather than try to renovate one of its existing facilities. The new warehouse was completed in 2011 and breaks new ground in terms of capacity, storage conditions, green building and energy efficiency. The resulting wine has a simple design and the necessary research and intensive collaboration between the architect, engineers, experts in the film and the BFI. The warehouse stores of 460,000 square meters 3000 film cans to -5 ° C and 35% relative humidity. In order for this not to cost an arm and a leg on energy bills, the design team came up with a system that uses 4 industrial chillers, 4 floors dehumidification and air conditioning units 12 and as heat recovery and a long tight, insulated and very watertight enclosure. Precast concrete construction provides a very stable environment and can maintain temperatures below freezing for 3 consecutive days of summer, although it was light. For the amount of air conditioning needed in the warehouse stores BFI using relatively low amounts of electricity and serve as a striking example of what is possible. Arup Fire Engineers helped with the design for the building could withstand combustion temperatures nitrate film and keep the heat is distributed to the rest of the collection or environmental control systems. In addition, the building has a sedum blanket living room system, a wildflower meadow, ditches to provide a sustainable drainage system, a bat and a hanger measures to protect Great crested newt, badgers and nesting birds construction activities. BFI movie stores are expected to achieve 'Excellent' BREEAM rated. Edward Cullinan Architects + Through Images © Edmund Sumner ArchDaily
