505 _613-141 Nature's Lack of Design : An essay that traces the history of humanity to better understand the relationship between the built environment and the ground on which it sits. It includes a timeline of pivotal moments in which humankind constructed, embraced and retreated to its own environment over the last millennia. -- 143-1365 Building Bound to the Ground : Six strategies for reconnecting architecture and landscape, merging building and ground. -- 153 Bury : The building sits below the earth's crust, allowing for an uninterrupted landscape above. -- 389 Embed : Building and landscape share an equal position within the earth's crust. The building is embedded in the landscape and the landscape is manipulated to accommodate the building. -- 619 Absorb : The building sits atop the earth's crust, receiving information from the land below. Externally, the building alters the landscape, but within the interior, landscape dictates. -- 755 Spiral : The spiral twists the ground upwards or down-wards, multiplying the building's surface area with-out breaking it into discrete floors. The fluidity of movement and continuity of surface offer a way of unifying building, infrastructure and landscape. -- 961 Carve : Space is carved out of the centre of the building to form a new interior landscape. Natural elements of air and light are invited inside and enclosed. -- 1141 Mimic : The building learns from the landscape. It mimics and simulates natural features and systems, terracing, branching and growing. Building and landscape have begun to merge. -- 1369 List of figures -- 1383 Bibliography -- 1389 About the authors -- 1390 Credits and acknowledgements --

520 _aBuilding is one of very few endeavours that are physically connected to the surface of the earth, fixed and enduring. Nevertheless, for centuries, especially in the West, we have considered ourselves separate and above nature, drifting away, defining our own systems and order, and using the ground as a nothing more than a passive foundation. Other times we sought connection, drawing on nature for ritual and religion, fortified protection, and ecological balance. This global compendium of nearly 1,400 pages brings architecture back in harmony with Earth’s surface. For years, Bjarne Mastenbroek and his architectural firm, SeARCH, have delved into the relationship architecture has, had, and will have with its surroundings, seeing buildings as landscapes that fit into their site without dominating or disturbing it. For Dig It!, they have dug deep into the history of building culture and brought to light fascinating examples of this philosophy―some well known, some previously overlooked. -- Provided by publisher
