The Baroque Style shop-houses has become a local architectural characteristics in Qi Shan district, Kaohsiung city, Taiwan today. However, the residents had carry out the building alterations styles themselves in unification to improve the living environment which mostly depend on their own needs to renew or reconstruction and resulting the derogation of historical features. Therefore, by way of “partially preserved and partially alterations” to conducted the landscaping preservation of shop-houses, while “historical landscape preservation line” and “mass control” as the two ways of research methods in simulated preservation and alterations of building. Look forward to the equilibrium of preservation historical landscaping for shop-houses and building alterations to consistent both needs of preservation and alterations. From two case studies on the traditional shop-house, in Qishan Dist, Kaohsiung city, Taiwan, we surveyed to understand what spaces the dwellers need, when they live in their traditional shop-houses for contemporary life. And we simulated renewal to work out the minimal preservation space by “volume control”. Results of this study showed that the house's length would affect the minimal preservation space, the shorter house is “the historical arcade”, and the longer house is “the historical arcade and the first atrium”.

<p>The Pantry House Pantry or Mill of the Tithes is a baroque style building constructed at the end of the 18th century for the cash collection of the decimal rent, a tax repealed with the Madoz's Disentailment Law in 1855. The Pantry House of Espera is one of the most representative houses of the thirteen remaining in the province of Cadiz, and the only one that was also used as oil-mill (olive press). Organized around a central courtyard, is one of the few Andalucía houses that offers a full structure. The framework, which consist on a rectangular floor and double height, still preserves the old barns, the warehouse, the oil storages, the offices, and the former machinery in a relative good condition.

Full textAbstract:
Sille is located 8 km northwest of Konya city center in the Central Anatolia region. It is one of the most important and historically rooted residential units in Anatolia. Although it is located in close proximity to Konya, Sille draws attention as a unique site with its geographical structure, cultural life, beliefs and tradition. In this study, firstly, Sille’s historical significance, cultural and social characteristics are addressed with a particular focus on its distinct structure pertaining to its culture, belief, tradition and geography. Then, a typology study is carried out by explaining the city settlement constituting Sille’s historical fabric, façade characteristics and elements of Sille traditional houses. In this context, 16 traditional house façades are chosen in line with the infrastructures formed through the literature review on the subject. These house façades are examined and analyzed through the help of visual data. In the light of the data obtained from the results of this analysis, evaluations and suggestions on the preservation of Sille’s historical fabric are made.

Full textAbstract:
As immersive technologies have become ubiquitous today, traditional museums are finding success augmenting existing exhibits to increase visitors’ satisfaction. However, due to the immutable nature of house museums, and their tendency to place visitors in direct contact with historical artifacts, museum managers are seeking original approaches to cultural preservation. Implementing mixed reality systems into historic house museums is one such approach. The goal of this study is to develop and test a conceptual matrix that guides how designers use the affordances of mixed reality systems to create experiences that align with the range of historical narratives found in house museums. Experiences that can contribute to improving visitors’ satisfaction, self-interpretation, and understanding of the homeowner’s life and the community within which they lived. Building on human-centered design methods, the researcher developed and tested a prototype of an augmented reality (AR) mobile application centered on the Pope House Museum in Raleigh, North Carolina. The outcome of the research suggests house museum visitors should have agency in deciding the lens through which they experience the variety of historical narratives present in the home.

Full textAbstract:
Ancient cities are hierarchical in the social structure and acquire a definite social structure in the process of its development. Zamoskvorechye (the area beyond the Moscow River) on the map of Moscow is separated by the river and opposed to the center with its architectural composition and historical social structure. The center of Zamoskvorechye is the Kadashevskaya Sloboda (Kadashi settlement) making the basis of compositional construction of the entire district. The dominant of composition is the Church of the Resurrection of Christ in Kadashi, a unique monument of architecture of the XVII century. On the territory of the settlement exists the 401th quarter with the historical objects located in it. The authors carried out a historical-sociological and architectural-historical study of the homesteads located in the area of the Resurrection Church. Most of the parish of the temple in the XVIII–early XX centuries belonged to the merchant stratum. With the liquidation of settlements, social strata have changed. The authors calculated the estate and professional composition of inhabitants of the quarter in various eras, the graphs of the quantitative ratio of estates and professions of the composition of inhabitants of 401th quarter of the Kadashevskaya Sloboda are presented. The growth of interests and opportunities of the inhabitants is evidenced by the research data of V.P. Pushkov and L.V. Pushkov. The distribution of functional use of buildings and sections of the quarter in the XX–XXI centuries is analyzed. Certain houses and homesteads have survived to the present day. One of them is the house of merchant D.R. Olenev. The tragic fate befell the historical building “house of the deacon”—a sample of the main house of the city homestead, transferred to the Resurrection Church “for eternal remembrance”. On the territory of the 401th quarter was the famous sausage factory of Nikolay Grigoriev, the locally revered saint of the Yaroslavl region. Directly on the territory of the temple is located the house of merchant M.P. Krupennikov, in which today exists a Museum “Kadashevskaya Sloboda”. In the XXI century the commercial development threatens the historical and architectural appearance of the quarter.

Full textAbstract:
The Beard, Alington, and Mackay houses represent the endpoint of a direction in New Zealand domestic architecture that was both internationalist and based within the realities of local house building in the mid-twentieth century. Imi Porsolt, while reviewing Stephanie Bonny and Marilyn Reynolds'book Living with 50 Architects in 1980, specifically points to the Alington house as the final formalisation of this purist trend. Porsolt's review provides an historical subtext to Living with 50 Architects that opposes the "altogether austere style" of the pavilion with the vernacularism of what is best described as the "elegant shed" tradition of New Zealand house design. More elegant than the elegant shed, these pavilions reveal something of a "blind spot" in New Zealand's architectural history – aside from the inclusion of the Beard and Alington houses in Living with 50 Architects,they have not appeared in any of the canon-forming historical surveys such as Mitchell and Chaplin's The Elegant Shed or Shaw's A History of New Zealand Architecture. The Mackay house also has not featured until its recent appearance in Lloyd Jenkins' At Home: A Century of New Zealand Design. This paper uses Porsolt's view as a useful starting point from which to consider the relationship that exists between the Beard, Alington, and Mackay houses, and their place in the development of New Zealand's domestic architecture during the 1960s.

Full textAbstract:
This article introduces the house of mirrors as an analytical device with the aim of cracking open binary comparative work. It offers close readings of debates regarding US colonialism among Puerto Rican intellectuals and politicians at two distinct historical moments. These are the 1910s, prompted specifically by the 1912 War in Cuba, and the early Cold War, the 1950s and 1960s moment of intentionally modeling Puerto Rico as the “Showcase of the Americas.” In changing the focus to examine the play of images intrinsic to the house of mirrors, this meditation seeks to avoid reproducing the single and contained national gaze that often frames comparative narratives, even when they acknowledge the overlapping geographic, sociocultural, and political circuits shaping historical subjects. Instead, the house of mirrors reveals the operational mechanisms of the national modern gaze historical actors often employed to organize their experiences, project themselves onto others, and advance their political desires.

Abstract. Manor Houses were the homes and centres of operation of Basque noble families during the Late Medieval Period. From early defensive Tower Houses to the Palaces of the early 16th century, Manor Houses evolved during the Late Middle Ages, adapting to different historical periods. Despite their heritage value, these buildings are in danger of being lost. Investigations of past centuries encouraged the emergence of false beliefs around Manor Houses – excessively old constructive periods, assignment of defensive origins to most buildings, etc.–. This has resulted in serious errors in heritage catalogues and, subsequently, a high number of unfortunate architectural interventions. This paper aims to analyse and characterize the typological evolution of Basque Manor Houses, in order that the results be used as guideline for future protection strategies. The work was divided into three sections: field work, documentary research and historical-constructive analysis. Collected data was uploaded into QGIS software, which was then used to carry out a comparative analysis. An inventory of 2050 Manor Houses has been developed, which includes a “Red List” of 472 buildings in danger of being lost. Five typologies of Manor Houses have been identified: one with a defensive function – the Tower House – and four types of non-defensive constructions – Tower Palace, Rural Palatial House, Large Palace and Village Manor House –. Most of the existent Basque Manor Houses were built after the mid-15th century and were non-defensive from their original construction.

Full textAbstract:
This is a first approach to the application of virtual reconstruction techniques of a colonial house. In Argentina it is still uncommon to perform 3D modeling of archaeological sites and especially in historical archeology. As a first step, we used the Google SketchUp to model the country house located on the banks of the Río de la Plata (Buenos Aires). It has historical significance because it belonged to a Spanish councilman, housed hundreds of slaves and was the place where stayed the troops that carried out the Second British Invasion of Buenos Aires. In this case, the 3D modeling was useful for evaluating the future excavationa and activities of preservation of cultural heritage.

The period from the 19th to the beginning of the 20th century is considered in relation to historical evolution of architecture of traditional individual residential building. Social, religious and natural factors contribute to the formation of the structure of traditional residential house and provide the most comfortable microclimate, ensure security and noise protection for residents. Traditional house consists of both inner and outer courtyards. The paper gives the description of housing types in the province of Anbar: a tent, a house with rivak, a house with a Lebanon, rural and urban houses. It is found that in the Anbar province, the main type of the traditional individual urban residential building is a city house with courtyard that meets the requirements of urban residents.

Full textAbstract:
The role of the “Evangelical house of diligenceˮ in the religious space of St. Petersburg is considered. The tradition of creating “Houses of diligenceˮ originated in St. Petersburg in the 19th century and began to revive again in the city on the Neva River at the beginning of the 21st century. At present time a few “Houses of diligenceˮ operate as rehabilitation centers for children and adults with disabilities engaging them in various workshops and other labour activities. It is obvious that the possibility of providing unemployed citizens with social assistance through the provision of temporary work, as well as assistance in their further employment, does not lose its relevance. The goal of this paper is to assess the role of “The Evangelical house of diligenceˮ in the religious space of Saint Petersburg. During the writing of this paper we used materials from the Russian Central State Historical Archive of St. Petersburg. For the main research we used chronological and comparative historical methods of analysis. Using the chronological analysis, we explored the sequence of formation and development of “The Evangelical house of diligenceˮ. Using comparative historical analysis, we determined the structure of that institutions, sources of his financing and the underlying mechanism of his operation. The article makes an effort to evaluate the role of pastor A. Mazing in organisation of “The Evangelical house of diligenceˮ. Management of “The Evangelical house of diligenceˮ and in addition to organising of the temporary employment to those in need of the Evangelical Lutheran faith, was providing charitable assistance to the disabled individuals. It was also involved in creations of a hospice and a shelter for alcoholics. In that “institution of labour assistance” they paid a special attention to the concerns for morality of the wards in accordance with the canons of the Evangelical-Lutheran Church, therefore they prioritised the faithful of this Church dur-ing the admission. “The Evangelical house of diligenceˮ was offering its workers in need an option to live on the premises, which was a welcome offer especially during wintertime.

Full textAbstract:
The existence of traditional houses in Banda Aceh has been extinguished in modern times. With globalization's impact, the traditional house connotates as ‘old house style,’ and thus, the house style is not up to date. A large number of house owners demolish them and reconstruct them with new modern houses. Despite that, it is approved that the traditional houses of Aceh were survived the earthquake that frequently hit the region. As Banda Aceh is one of the regions resided on Sumatran's segment, the region has a large number of earthquakes. This paper, which is part of the previous study on the thermal comfort of traditional and modern houses in Aceh, explores a historical architectural example that reveals local experiences that involve local wisdom and expertise. This paper focuses on a traditional house located in a modern housing neighborhood in Banda Aceh city. In doing this, the paper identifies how Acehnese ancestors, through their local knowledge, have constructed a traditional Acehnese house. The article also shows how its architectural form's construction techniques respond to the region's geographical condition. In constructing this study, interview and observation toward the building as primary data collections are conducted. Also, several written sources, as secondary data, related to an Acehnese traditional house, are reviewed. This paper shows that constructing a conventional house is a responsive architecture toward hot climate and earthquake. Therefore, this architectural building type with the local wisdom value's involvement is worthy of being applied and adapted in modern life.

Full textAbstract:
The article deals with study and attribution of rare portable iconostases (“movable church”). Their features include the Sovereign tier (with the Royal Doors) absence, the small size, and the four remaining tiers (Deisis, Great Feasts, Prophets, and Patriarchs) painted on one board. Portable iconostases were used during long pilgrimages, missionary trips, or military campaigns, as well as in Bezpopovtsy (priestless) houses of worship.In liturgical practice, both in ancient times and now, portable iconostases were used under certain circumstances for long journeys. They are easy to set up in any place, whether it is a house, a tent or a field. In the 16th century, embroidered iconostases, rapidly installable in field and stationary conditions, were brought along in military campaigns. Thus, in his military campaigns, Emperor Alexander I used a silk-painted iconostasis made by masters of the Moscow Kremlin Armory. Movable churches were also used in remote and sparsely populated areas (for example, in the Olonets Governorate). The services were held in a big house and lasted for two or three days.There were quite a lot of portable iconostases in the past, but only few of them have been preserved, among which there are rather peculiar ones, shaped as cupboards, nightstands, kiots. At the beginning of the 20th century, an iconostasis icon was painted with five tiers on one board.

Full textAbstract:
The article studies the problems of a semantic shift in the meanings of the words “house”, “village”, “city” in the Nenets language. Based on descriptions extracted from dictionaries and historical and ethnographic works, it was established that the Nenets used the words “dwelling” and “settlement” exclusively for traditional tchums and campsites. During the historical processes that took place over the centuries on the territory of the Nenets, wide contacts with Russian settlers, they did not directly borrow Russian words for their language, but rather began to use Nenets words for stationary houses and villages. In these examples, we can observe how the language adapts the traditional words and concepts in a constantly changing environment. Key words: tundra Nenets, tchum, camp, house, settlement, city, semantic shift.

This paper on the urban preservation has dual themes to discuss that preserve the value of the architectural culture, and satisfy the needs of the architectural renewal. The intention is to set up a suitable way for the urban preservation on the view of the dwellers. Therefore, we should be allowed to renew the part of the traditional shop-house on the needs of contemporary life-style, but also have to preserve a minimal space for the historical characters. From the case study on the traditional shop-houses of Sheen-None street, Wu-tiao Gang, in Tainan city, Taiwan. We survey to understand what spaces the dwellers transfer, when they live in their traditional shop-houses for contemporary lifestyle. And we use the information to work out the minimal preservation space by “volume control”. In conclusion, the minimal preservation space is “the first hall and the first atrium”, but it also needs to keep the use of the first floor and the second floor of the second hall, so these total spaces could be sufficient for a household living.

AbstractOld Government House (OGH) is one of Queensland’s premier heritage buildings, and is located within the Gardens Point campus of Queensland University of Technology (QUT). This 156-year-old building, now a house museum, offers a tangible link to Queensland’s early colonial life. The museum strives to present the stories of all who lived and worked here. Children generally do not visit historic houses willingly, and to address this OGH collaborated with Imaginary Theatre to develop an innovative and fun way to interpret and present the historical significance of the House to a younger audience. The result was a one-hour site-specific theatre performance, The Voice in the Walls — part game, part audio tour, part theatre. The key objective of the project was to create a visitor experience that captured the attention of nine- to twelve-year-olds by encouraging them to imagine an unfamiliar world and time while also conveying historical information. This article discusses the background to the development of the project, and its evolution from inspiration to practical reality.

Recent research has found significant evidence of a 52-week high affinity effect in the stock market. A stock's historical highest price, in the previous 52 weeks, approximately one year, exhibits an anchoring effect on investor decisions. In this paper, I examine whether the highest past price, over several years, can contribute to predicting returns in the real estate market. I find the 9-year high has a positive relation with the return of house prices, while the 2-year high shows a negative relationship in the U.S. housing market. Additionally, economic variables have differing effects on the behaviors of households when considering prices within the context of the threshold point of the highest price of the previous years. This is the first investigation to highlight the importance of an n-year high in the housing market.

Purpose The study looks at the characteristics of upswings and downswings for UK housing cycles. Specifically, the purpose of this paper is to empirically analyse cycles in house prices and housing affordability on the characteristics of persistence, magnitude and severity. Design/methodology/approach The paper draws upon the triangular methodology of cycles and utilises housing data from the last three decades. Findings From an empirical perspective, the study obtained four main results. First, the graphical trajectory of cycles in house price and housing affordability is highly synchronized. Second, upturns in both cycles tend to be longer than downturns on average. Third, the recent upturn in house prices and housing affordability is characterised by larger duration, magnitude and severity than the earlier case. Fourth, the latest downturn in both cycles is highly synchronised in terms of time occurrence, persistence, magnitude and severity; in addition, in both cases, the latest downturn is considerably smaller than the previous one. The study additionally indicates that on average the length of a complete house price and housing affordability cycle is 19 years on a peak-to-peak basis. Research limitations/implications This paper is essentially exploratory and raises a number of questions for further investigation. Future research should, first, arrive at a more nuanced definition of affordability and, second, examine causality. The fact that two phenomena appear to have some significant synchronicity is not an indication that they are interdependent, although logic would suggest they might be. Originality/value This is among the few papers that analyses cycles in UK house prices. It is the first study that draws attention to the housing affordability cycle and the first to compare cycles in house prices with cycles in housing affordability.

Indonesia has traditional architecture and traditional custom house that are specific and varied according to locally aplicable tradition, one of them is traditional house located in Aceh province called Acehnese house or rumoh Aceh. Lubok Sukon Village in Aceh Province is one of the village that still maintains the Acehnese houses as the residency and phisically as the identity of its region. The current development of residence is more directed to be current modern model of houses. This will threaten the existency of Acehnese houses sustainability and will impact to the physical of its historical area, therefore an effort to preserve the Acehnese traditional housesis needed through community participation so that a sustainable preservation concept can be realized. The metodology applied in this research is qualitative and quantitativecombination method (mixed method) with descriptive analysis. The result of the research shown that the community participation on Acehnese houses preservation is still high based on their concern and interest along with their eagerness to maintain the existency of Acehnese traditonal houses by 82.5%. This is also in accordance with the conditions of the Acehnese housesalthough some traditional elements of the house have undergone changes, but visually the identity of Acehnese houses generally remains visible. The development of Acehnese houses preservation in Lubok Sukon is not only covered the building arrangements, but also the environment of village area.

Full textAbstract:
On several occasions, the poet Pablo Neruda referred to Isla Negra as his favorite house and, for many years, he worked to transform it into his primary home. The building of this house, an incremental process over time that saw Neruda’s direct participation in its planning, constitutes a perfect case study for understanding the poet’s intention in the construction of his particular environment: the Nerudian space. Much has been written on Neruda’s houses, but the novelty of the approach presented here lies in the configurational perspective that privileges both the totality (instead of the parts) and the historical process behind its construction (instead of the final product). This article presents a morphological study of the Isla Negra house, using the Space Syntax methodology and analyzing the parts and stages of growth of the house in relation to one another and among themselves until Neruda’s last intervention in 1973.

Full textAbstract:
The Casa di Sallustio at Pompeii is one of the houses that belongs in every book and study on domestic life and architecture in the Roman era. The fact that it was excavated at the start of the 19th c., however, means that large parts of its decoration have long since been lost through weathering and neglect, a situation further compounded by the damage resulting from Allied bombing in 1943. In order to reconstruct, as accurately as possible, a picture of the house as it stood in antiquity, it is therefore particularly important to evaluate all the historical visual sources that document the house in a better condition. This task has already been extensively carried out in the monograph of A. Laidlaw and M. S. Stella (2014). With a similar goal, I propose to take a fresh look at a cork model dating from 1840 today housed in Aschaffenburg (Bavaria) in order to discuss its context and original function. Next, A. Laidlaw will compare the model's meticulously detailed copies of the structure and decoration, still in 1840 almost perfectly preserved, to the present battered state of the extant remains, thereby confirming the importance of the Aschaffenburg model as the primary archaeological source for the house.

Full textAbstract:
The article explores structural and semantic features of names of houses (oikodomonyms) in the Turkish language. The author proceeds from studying individual names’ motivations, contexts of their usage, and functional meaning (compared to the corresponding Russian designations) to the description of the general urbanonymic formula of Turkish house names. Typically, the name’s affiliation to this class is indicated by the element apartment (borrowed from French) which is used in modern Turkish to refer to the buildings intended for rental housing. In Turkish grammar, appellative nouns occur in postposition and agree with the complemented onym that specifies the nominated object. With names of houses, when these derive from other titles — a personal name or a sea name, the onymic component is formed through appellative onymization or transonomization and can consist of one or several elements with a variable degree of complexity. The study identifies typical patterns of house naming: “possessive” names, names verbalizing the concept of ‘home,’ reference names formed by metonymic transfer, “panegyric” names with double nomenclature element, communicative “greeting” names. The cultural and historical context of Turkish oikodomonymy reveals itself in less common yet present “memorial” names commemorating remarkable events. Another peculiar group is “associative” house names conditioned by the appearance of the building. There is a strong influence of extralinguistic factors in the urban onomasticon of Instanbul: the names of houses reflect cultural and historical traditions of the people, features of the city’s natural landscape, the multi-ethnic composition of the population of the metropolis. The large scope of this category of onyms, the variety of semantic patterns and the functions it displays, as well as extensive, continuously replenished vocabulary, brings Turkish house names into a separate and well-established microsystem within the Turkish urban toponymicon.

The article reveals the historical experience of designing an apartment building in Kiev, intended for living and organizing the work of doctors. The purpose of the article is to present and analyze the domestic experience in the design and further functioning of multi-apartment buildings for residents of certain professions, in particular medicine. The article may be of interest to an audience who studies national historical monuments, unique buildings, or deals with the problems of designing multi-apartment buildings for certain groups of the population. The research methodology is based on historical analysis, systematization of the data obtained from various information sources. Ukraine has its own historical experience in the design and construction of unique and special buildings, which may arouse interest among the international community, domestic specialists in the architectural and design sphere and among investors interested in creating multi-apartment housing for a group of residents united by a certain profession. Unfortunately, these Ukrainian practical developments are still insufficiently disclosed and not represented at the proper level in the research community. In particular, the problem of designing apartment buildings for doctors and medical personnel is an open and unresolved issue for international researchers. Today, the First Doctor's House is a prestigious building, although over time it turned out to be located on a very noisy and busy city highway in the center of the capital city. In this house there are no longer any indigenous people of Kyiv and those for whom this project was developed by the architect - people of the medical profession. Almost none of today's residents of the building and its surroundings remember why it has such an unusual name. Alas ... A couple of decades ago, well-known Kiev doctors, some of the best Ukrainian surgeons of the Soviet school, lived in the First House of Doctors. Now the house is filled with «new Ukrainians», «new financial elite». And the people who were the pride of Kyiv and Ukraine, the best specialists in their field, remained only in memories. Such a personal fate of this particular historical building, it has lost its purpose to unite people of medical professions, perhaps this is due to its location in the prestigious central urban environment of Kyiv. But at the time when doctors really lived in the «First House of the Doctor» - the building was an ultra-comfortable object for combining residential, professional functions for its residents.

The traditional Iraqi courtyards house demonstrates fundamentals principles in term of construction, its spatial organization and design can be compared with the modern home. The research claims the current housing design in Iraq does not fulfill the cultural and the social need of their residence; the traditional courtyard houses have manifested that in the uniqueness form in the plan. This research attempts to analyze the historical and traditional courtyard house as the arisen construction of houses in Iraq. The research objective is to document the architectural forms of the courtyards houses in Iraq. The form of the house is one of the aspects to be studied and understood as it measures and establishes the architecture design concept of these dwellings. Morphological study on the form of eight case studies of the Iraqi Traditional Courtyards Houses has been utilized. The aim is to discuss and inspect the uniqueness of these units that served their residences for decades. Additionally, the author used computer software (AutoCAD and 3d Max) to redraw the cases to be more representative. The study’s significance is to add a distinct understanding among designers, planners and decision-makers to put into consideration the future architecture of houses design and to preserve the traditional houses from vanishing. The findings revealed that privacy has a great influence on the design layout of the traditional house which presented in the simplicity of design and the separation between zones.

Full textAbstract:
In the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, country-house tourism became increasingly popular in England. By 1770, hundreds of tourists were visiting the country’s greatest estates every summer. The nature of the attraction varied from house to house. Some, such as Kedleston Hall and Stowe, were considered ‘elegant’ modern buildings, while others, such as Blenheim Palace, were already seen as historical sites. Although country-house visiting as a concept dated back to the seventeenth century, there had never been so many tourists, nor such a variety of them. While one needed to be relatively wealthy and genteel in order to travel and gain admission to great houses, tourists included not only those who had their own estates but also those who could only be spectators. Early country-house tourists have been examined by a number of historians, but the ways in which the houses themselves were presented have hitherto been little studied. A better understanding of this manner of presentation illuminates the nature of tourists’ experiences and how the country house itself began to be identified as an attraction during this period. In essence, in an effort to cope with the influx of visitors, country-house owners began to formalize the terms under which their estates were open to the public. As part of this process, houses were metaphorically ‘remade’ in order to function as tourist attractions as well as private residences. It was not enough for owners simply to allow entry. They had to decide what would be shown to visitors, and how to provide visitors with information about the house and its contents. At first, these problems were solved by instructing housekeepers to guide visitors, but, as certain houses became exceptionally popular, a new practice developed: publishing guidebooks. This article considers the methodologies by which the interior spaces of country houses were remade in guidebooks (a type of re-presentation that can still be observed in many properties that are open to the public today), as well as the effects of this process.

Full textAbstract:
The process of historical data analysis through data mining has proven valuable for the industrial environment. There are many models available that describe the in-house process of data mining. However, many companies either do not have in-house skills or do not wish to invest in performing in-house data mining. This paper investigates the applicability of two well-established data mining process models in an outsourcing context. The authors observe that both models cannot properly accommodate several key aspects in this context; therefore, this paper proposes the Three-phases method, which consists of data retrieval, data mining and results implementation within an organization. Each element is presented as a visual method fragment, and the model is validated through expert interviews and an extensive case study at a large Dutch staffing company. Both validation techniques substantiate the authors’ claim that the Three-phases model accurately describes the data mining process from an outsourcing perspective.

Full textAbstract:
That architecture makes social statements is obvious in grand buildings from Norman castles to country houses. In smaller houses, such statements are often muted by our ignorance of their historical context and their date. This paper examines a small but sophisticated medieval house in which the combination of precise dating and informative documentation surmounts simple architectural analysis, to reveal something of its social importance to the family who built it. In the early nineteenth century, the status of Hall House, Sawbridge, was the lowest possible. It belonged to the Sawbridge Overseers of the Poor and was rented to families receiving parish support; later it became farm labourers' cottages. Most of the stages in the decline of the elegant medieval house to this lowly state can be documented, and links established to the only family in fifteenth-century Sawbridge with pretensions to sophistication. These clues lead to the identification of John Andrewe as the builder of Hall House in 1449, and to the recognition of it as a concrete expression of a family pride that was also being fostered by the invention of a distinguished ancestry.

Full textAbstract:
This paper explores how people within Neolithic villages were connected to co-resident multi-family households, and considers the potential material footprint of multi-family households within Neolithic villages. Drawing upon data from Çatalhöyük, I suggest that Neolithic communities were organized around multiple competing and cooperating Houses, similar to House Societies, where house members resided in clusters of abutting buildings, all largely the same size and with similar internal organization. These space were deeply connected to telling the generative narratives of the House as a historical and genealogical social unit, including the lives and actions of the ancestors, and in some cases embedding them physically within the fabric of the building. Çatalhöyük multi-family House members decorated some important rooms with display elaboration that focused on the past, the future and the family, while the dead from the households, who in many ways were still alive and part of the ancestral House, lived beneath the floor. This study underlines that researchers need to consider social scales beyond the single-family household and consider how the multi-family House existed as an organizational foundation within Neolithic villages.

Damascus has a long and distinguished history as a center for scholars and scholarship. The Umayyad Mosque has been a hub for Muslim scholars since the first Islamic century. Under the Ayyubids and Mamluks, a flurry of madrasa-building brought professional scholars to Damascus from all corners of the Muslim world. During the late 19th and early 20th centuries in Damascus, many scattered manuscript collections were consolidated into the National Library, housed in the Mamluk-era Madrasa al-Zahiriyya, the pride of Syrian scholars in the age of Arab nationalism. With French rule in 1920 came an army of researchers and catalogers who established one of the region’s best library collections at the Institut Français des Études Arabes à Damas. And, in 1984, the Asad Library was established to serve as a national library and to house manuscript collections from around the country. The mid-1990s is an auspicious time for American researchers in Syria because of the establishment of the American Research Institute in Syria, Inc. (ARIS), a consortium of American universities that has been working for the past several years to establish an institute for research and residence in Damascus on par with the European facilities there. The Institute has yet to be officially approved by the Syrian government, and present efforts depend on the outcome of regional political discussions.

Since it is highly desirable in the reuse of historic monuments not only to maintain their values but to promote them in contemporary life, authenticity is considered one of the measures of success in adaptive reuse projects. Nara Grid, which is designed concerning authenticity, is used as a tool to assess the authenticity of cultural heritage. This paper investigates authenticity in the adaptive reuse of Manouchehri House in Kashan based on the Nara Grid. The importance of this house lies in the fact that it is one of the first which has been reused by the private sector in this city and also has managed to encourage private sector partnership in the reuse of houses in this city and other historic cities of Iran. It has also been able to increase government trust, which shifts from top-down to a bottom-up approach in the field of cultural heritage, in the private sector. In this research, using Statistical Analysis methods, it is determined within the adaptive reuse of this house which ‘Dimensions’ and ‘Aspects’ of authenticity have received more attention and which ones received less; and also significant differences among individual’s viewpoints according to their gender, field, education, and age were investigated.

The analysis of inn, as first catering companies, was performed in the present article. There were explored their planning, functional, typological and compositional features in the context of the tools search for the formation unique images and national identity of the environment of catering institutions. The main inn functions are highlighted as food and beverages consumption, accommodation service, administration, trading, social and cultural entertainment, warehousing etc.
The building of the simplest inn was based on a planning type of the house ”by two halves” – consisted of two rooms that were divided by the hay: inns and accommodation were the one could stay over. The inn, in turn, was divided by a wall into two parts: a tavern with counters and tables with benches. A type of inn were ones with drive-inns (drive-inn backyards). They were larger, with longer arcades that went deep through entire building. Later, a new type of inn appeared – drive-in accommodation. Those differed from the normal inn by a larger number of rooms of various purposes, that were separated in groups according to their purposes. These included the owner’s family accommodations, guests rooms, utility rooms and a horse yard or covered stable.
It was discovered that the taverns by their spatial and planning structure were derived from the buildings similar to countryside houses and their functional, decorative and compositional means were quite humble. Therefore, the source of architectural and artistic means for the ethnic motives use in the modern environment of catering establishments is both the inn architecture and housing mean (Ukrainian rural housing of the late XIX and early XX centuries).
There were identified the main architectural and artistic means of using Ukrainian ethnic motifs in the architecture of modern interiors of catering establishments.

Full textAbstract:
On 25 October 1993, British artist Rachel Whiteread revealed her most ambitious sculptural work to date ‐ House. The solidified space of this Victorian-era, terraced home physically existed for a mere 80 days; yet, during this time it became the subject of an intense media interest and heated public debate which reached the United Kingdom’s Houses of Parliament. While House has been discussed in depth within art historical scholarship for almost 30 years, trends in this academic body of work tend to focus on absence and memory in a highly contested public space, as well as thoughts on loss, death, architecture, the art market, politics and gentrification in London’s East End during the latter part of the twentieth century. What is lacking, however, is an examination of House within the larger context of visual culture and what it may, or may not, mean for contemporary viewers. Analysing the historical context of the work’s location through a Marxist lens, reveals the dehumanization which occurred within the East End’s class constructs throughout the nineteenth century, and its effect on housing policies well into the twentieth century. Reading the sculptural work itself, using the methodologies of semiotics, unveils mythologies regarding what is and is not expendable in our western spaces; particularly, the working class, houses and works of art in post-industrial capitalist societies. The ideologies embedded within these mythologies continue to appear in our mass media images to this day, leaving unanswered questions regarding what is truly valued in our societies. Thus, Whiteread’s unique work is an artistic intervention into an image-saturated environment, asking the viewers and readers of cultural texts to consider at what point in time we will seek to change how we treat that which has been arguably undervalued.
