Introduction - Bridging Technology and Culture in Architecture -- Patterns Redefinition in Beijing East Qianmen, Kengo Kuma Office in Damochang 220 Courtyard House -- Chinese Vaulted Avant-garde Architecture. Materials and Tectonics as Design Tools for the Pursuit of Monumentality -- All That Glitters Is Not Gold: Laurie Baker's Alchemy in Brick -- The Reciprocal Development of Craft and Industry in Twentieth-century Japan Through the Lens of Plywood as a Material -- Toyo Ito's Wood Architecture Reimagined: A Critique of Modernist Ideology -- Hyperboloid Structure, also Known as Reciprocal Tower, in Bamboo Architecture -- The Cross-border Spread and Modernization of Modern Treaty Ports Cities: The Jardine Matheson Warehouse of Tianjin -- The "Chinese Curved Roof" for a Christian University: Interactions Between Building Technology and Cultural Perception in the Case of the University of Nanking -- Digging Cultures of Production Using Design Practice: Transforming the Main Oxygen Factory Workshop in Shougang, Beijing.

This book compiles a curated selection of texts authored by architects and scholars hailing from Asia, Europe, and North America. Their research, often intertwined with practical applications, delves into the intricate relationship between material culture, technology, and architecture within the broader cultural and social milieu. Three keywords-construction, materials, encounters-serve as the organizing framework for the book, guiding readers through a diverse array of case studies and experiences where these elements intertwine seamlessly. Indeed, these terms are intricately interwoven, reflecting the inseparability of technology from culture. The first part of the book delves into the poetics and theoretical underpinnings of construction, drawing from the works of various designers across China, Japan, and India. The subsequent section navigates the terrain of construction materials, exploring their evolution, manufacturing processes, and utilization, with a particular focus on diverse timber products and bamboo. The final part of this compilation embarks on a journey through historical encounters between the East and West spanning over a century. It meticulously investigates the exchanges, misunderstandings, and innovations catalyzed by these interactions. Collectively, these texts offer a profound and original perspective on the myriad experiences and challenges associated with the intricate interplay between technological advancements, tectonic preferences, and socio-cultural dynamics within the architectural landscape of the Asia-Pacific region.
