Use of the eBook format in describing Changing Architecture

eBooks bring new possibilities of describing architecture that traditional books cannot offer. The traditional book has strongly influenced our understanding of architecture through the restricted means of perspective, plans and images used in combination with text to describe architecture. But new technologies, such as streaming media expand the possibilities of reproducing architecture by adding the component of time and walk-through helping to experience space or follow change in flexible architecture. Interaction, especially hypertext, allows to influence the flow of narrative and gives the reader more independence when reading a text. In many aspects eBooks are still far from perceiving the real architecture, but the new possibilities of mediation help shift the perception to a better understanding of architecture.
