Abstract

This book presents a reflection on how to do architecture with installations, that is, to achieve their integration and take advantage of the synergies between the building and the technical systems to generate architecture.

The book begins with an introduction describing the technological advances of the last 250 years, such as the toilet, central heating, the lift or air conditioning, and how they have been progressively incorporated into the building, to the point that today a building is inconceivable without these services.
