Morocco &#8211; located at a crossroads between  Sub-Saharan Africa, the Arab-Muslim world in the Maghreb, and  Mediterranean Europe &#8211; has struggled to withstand the resulting cultural  and sociopolitical clashes ever since.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Fez Lessons: Industrious Habitat<\/strong><\/em><br \/>\n looks at Fez, Morocco&#8217;s famous former capital and today its  second-largest city. Based on a recent research program conducted by  EPFL&#8217;s Laboratory Basel (laba), it investigates how these clashes have  marked the city&#8217;s socioeconomic structure and urban fabric, and whether  or not it offers alternative and relevant means of human association and  community.<\/p>\n<p>Given the growing stream of large-scale international  investment, the constant enticement of tourism, and a worldwide revival  of nationalism, Laba&#8217;s student&#8217;s and researchers were looking for tiny  cues, nagging doubts, and signs of the fusion between form and life,  raising questions about identity, authenticity, tradition, the  globalisation of culture, and the use of local resources. Their findings  are visualised in the book in striking images, graphics and maps.  Students&#8217; proposals for architectural interventions addressing these  issues are presented through images and plans.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Explores the impact of cultural and sociopolitical clashes caused by European colonisation of the ancient Arab-Muslim world in the Maghreb on the urban fabric and socio-economic structure of Fez, Morocco&#8217;s second largest city.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":14611,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":""},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[5559],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-14610","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-architecture-landscape-design","7":"author-edited-by-alexandros-fotakis","8":"author-edited-by-augustin-clement","9":"author-edited-by-harry-gugger","10":"author-edited-by-sarah-bart","11":"author-edited-by-tiago-trigo","12":"publisher-park-books","13":"series-teaching-and-research-in-architecture","15":"first","16":"instock","17":"shipping-taxable","18":"purchasable","19":"product-type-simple"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.0 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Fez Lessons - ACC Art Books UK<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Title: Fez Lessons, Pages: 204 Pages, Publish Date: 17th Dec 2019, Author: Edited by Alexandros Fotakis, Edited by Augustin Cl\u00e9ment, Edited by Harry Gugger, Edited by Sarah Bart, Edited by Tiago Trigo, ISBN: 9783038601692.
