Philippe Rahm Architectes

Philippe Rahm

This book is about climate and architecture. Written by the Swiss architect
Philippe Rahm, it is at the same time a monograph on the architectural,
urbanistic and landscape work of the office “Philippe Rahm architectes”,
a manifesto for a climatic architecture to face global warming, and a
theoretical and practical treatise on the art of building atmospheres.
Architecture and urbanism were traditionally based on climate and health, as
we can read in treatises of Vitruvius, Palladio or Alberti, where exposure to
wind and sun, variations in temperature and humidity influenced the forms
of cities and buildings. These fundamental causes of urban planning and
buildings were ignored in the second half of the 20th century.
The fight against climate change forces architects and urban designers to
take back seriously the climatic issue in order to base their design on more
consideration to the local climatic context and energy resources. We propose
to reset our discipline by highlighting atmospheric qualities as design tools
for composing architecture and cities.

002 · Is the World Urban?
Towards a Critique of Geospatial Ideology
Neil Brenner, Nikos Katsikis

Geospatial datasets and remotely sensed images have become ubiquitous

in scholarly and public discussions of urbanization. This book evaluates the
limits and potentials of remotely sensed data and other forms of geospatial
information as a basis for mapping and understanding urbanization
processes under modern capitalism.
Against the prevalent trend towards cartographic positivism, in which such
data are presented as neutral, photographic “captures” of ground conditions,
our analysis reveals the hidden, pre-empirical interpretive assumptions that
mediate the construction and visualization of geospatial data.
By critically interrogating geospatial data on the most commonly used
indicators for mapping urban space, the book casts doubt on the widely
naturalized assumption that cities are bounded settlement units, and the
concomitant understanding of urbanization as an expansion in the size and
distribution of such units.

Planetary Urbanization
Grga Bašić, Neil Brenner, Mariano Gomez-Luque, Daniel Ibáñez,
Nikos Katsikis / Urban Theory Lab

How can we map the urbanization of the planet? To confront this question,
the Urban Theory Lab presents a series of experimental visualizations of the
worldwide urban fabric.
Reversing conventional understandings of urbanization as a process of city
growth, the 12 data-spheres reveal the importance of operational landscapes
beyond the city (zones of agriculture, extraction, forestry and fishing), as
well as planetary logistical infrastructures, that directly support urban life.
By illustrating how radically divergent cartographies of an urbanized planet
can be constructed on the basis of different indicators, the visualizations
are intended to interrupt the authoritative, scientific “aura” that often
pervades geospatial representations of our urbanizing planet. The counter-
visualizations presented here invite viewers to question their own cognitive
maps of contemporary urbanization, and to imagine new urban worlds that
might more fully embody our collective aspirations.

An Unfinished Cyclopedia

Lydia Kallipoliti

This book documents the intersection of architecture and design with ecology,
environmental history, policy, governance and law from the 19th century
to today. It presents conflicting definitions and concepts of architects and
designers and the parallel histories of their intellectual positions toward
environmental throughout time.
There have been many accounts on the history of ecology and others on
the migration of ecological thought to design and architecture practice. Yet,
the work of a focused and expanded history of ecological design is much
needed. This book presents conflicting definitions and concepts of architects
and designers and the parallel histories of their intellectual positions toward
environmental thought from the 19th century to today.
To survey the formation of this field, the history of ecological design will be
not be exclusively examined chronologically, but also in connected worldviews,
each rendering evolving perceptions of nature, its relation to culture, and the
occupation of the natural world by human and non-human subjects.

Sharing Tokyo is a collection of essays and drawings on the theme of sharing

the urban space of Tokyo.
The book questions how “artifice” and the “social world” can be mutually
and constructively integrated so that the contemporary urban space can be
shared by all. A variety of innovative practices are presented by a diverse
group of contributors including renowned scholars, architects, urbanists, and
photographers from Japan and the US, and the research team at the Harvard
University Graduate School of Design.
While the discourses and architectural works presented deal with the
specificity of Tokyo, they were carefully selected to formulate together a
collection of insights, new perspectives, and speculative experiments in
urbanism and architecture that can also be used in other contexts.

Critical Writings and Proposals. 1970-2020. Housing,
Infrastructure, Pedagogy

Richard Plunz

On the eve of Plunz’s status as Emeritus at Columbia University, New York

Global bridges five decades of his pedagogical commitment to question
the cannons of the design and urbanism fields and their relationship to the
contemporary built environment.
Through interviews, syllabi excerpts, essays, discussions, and projects, New York
City is projected as a lens for understanding the potential for metropolises
everywhere to serve as firewalls against dystopic social inequities and ecological
adversity. In questioning the discourse surrounding urban research and action,
Plunz engages with the primordial question of “urban” itself. This book is not
a cautionary tale, but rather an assemblage of timestamped evidence toward
understanding our current condition. Closely studying the very tools that
have fostered today’s environmental and societal consequences, each segment
contributes to understanding engagement with a post-accelerated future.
“The fact that urban populations have grown nearly ten times in a century has rendered most
urban design principles obsolete. At a time when climate change directly correlates with urban
growth, Richard Plunz’s masterful book provides us with the most pertinent of analyses by
placing the design of cities back at the center of today’s human priorities. A “must-read” for the
early twenty-first century.” —

Architecture, Data, Agriculture

Clare Lyster

Future Farm Forms is a research and design project that explores how
synergies between cloud-based information technologies and agricultural
production catalyze the design of new farm typologies with expanded
program and collective space.
The overwhelming amount of storage required to accommodate society’s
reliance on cloud-based systems is impacting the design of our cities and
regions. Hyperscale big box data farms occupy vast footprints, demand
enormous power, and release warm exhaust air into the atmosphere. Future
Farm Forms explores the potential co-benefits between data and agriculture
(farm + farm) toward the design of unique “info-agri adjacencies” that
reshape the countryside and the city and that offer sustainable and artful
relationships between food, land, and the socio-technical assemblages that
underpin urban life.
Through analysis, narrative and speculative design, the book reveals new
typologies of architecture and landscape space that emerge from the
synergies between data and agriculture.

008 · Biocities
When Cities Follow the Rules of Nature

Vicente Guallart, Daniel Ibáñez, Marc Palahí

Biocities are cities that follow the principles of natural systems to foster
life and biodiversity. Since the first Industrial Revolution in the mid-19th
century, a new city-building model has emerged in Europe every 50 years in
response to the social, cultural and technological challenges of each period.
These paradigm shifts have come about following major crises like the
current one, in which we are battling the climate crisis and fighting for life at
the same time.
At present, the challenge is no longer to grow our cities outward, but to
promote urban regeneration by working across disciplines. We should look to
nature to power this new method of developing urban settlements. What we
call Circular Bioscience promotes a new way of approaching the economic
and social development of global territories, through the implementation of
solutions rooted in nature and the advancement of the circular economy. By
definition, it is an interdisciplinary effort that brings together the fields of
ecology, biology, agriculture, urban planning, architecture, landscape, design,
engineering, economics, governance, medicine, and the social sciences,
among many others.

009 · The Climate Imaginary

Leire Asensio Villoria, David Mah

The Climate Imaginary brings reflects on a global collection of design works

that are engaged with the social, political and cultural transformations
anticipated with climate change.
With the climate emergency dominating our collective consciousness, the
design field has mobilized to engage with the social, political and cultural
transformations anticipated with the effects of this crisis. There has also
been a corresponding widening to the spectrum of climate-informed design
explorations, going beyond the technical imperatives of sustainability.
The Climate Imaginary brings together a global collection of works which
provide a sample of this plurality. This pluralism reverberates more explicitly
with the scope of disruptions that will affect all aspect of our lives. The
pervasiveness of the effects of this emergency opens up a panoply of subjects
to be explored by designers.

010 · The Caring City
Health, Economy, and Environment

Izaskun Chinchilla Moreno

This book invites us to rethink architectural and urban models, prioritizing

not so much the technical, formal and abstract knowledge sought by urban
planners, as the public and civic dimension of citizens’ experience when they
try to care for themselves, for each other or for the environment.
After decades of industrialization, our cities, in their physical and
governmental dimensions, are productivity-oriented places. Cities are,
nonetheless, a more hostile environment for non-productive activities: being
able to choose where to sit and rest, use a public toilet, drink clean water
without paying or breathe unpolluted air. The privilege that productive
activities have enjoyed and those who exercise them has led to the denial of
the various biological and subjective characteristics of its inhabitants and the
multidimensional character of the city, becoming a cultural principle and a
political practice.
The Caring City opens up an extensive field of alternatives that can present a
uniting vision of the economy, the environment and the health of a diverse
community.

011 · Exclusions, Edges, and Ecologies
An Architecture...

César A. Lopez, Jeffrey S. Nesbit

This book isolates and dissects long-overlooked architectural typologies to

unveil political aesthetics and protocols along geographic boundaries shaping
contemporary society.
Exclusions, Edges, and Ecologies is an investigation for identifying and
documenting the infrastructural and architectural typologies along political
boundaries. By revisiting building typology as a method, this project
purposefully meets the entanglement between architecture and power
structures. The study of the architectural type and the interrogation of
architecture’s role becomes its call for social and political change. Citizenry
edges do not only begin and end at nation-state borders but expand from
within the interior of common social junctures.
Exclusions, Edges, and Ecologies catalogs an architectural type across diverse
historical and geopolitical scales, from the interior to vast territories
of remote land, to reveal the edges of architecture and delaminate the
boundaries of our contemporary design discourse.

012 · The Live Centre of Information
From Pompidou to Beaubourg (1968–1971)

Boris Hamzeian

The Live Centre of Information: From Pompidou to Beaubourg (1969-

1971) unpacks the history behind one of the most iconic buildings of
contemporary architecture.
On July 19, 1971, Jean Prouvé presented the winning design of the future
Centre Pompidou in Paris to an astonished audience. The project’s architects,
Renzo Piano, Richard Rogers, and Gianfranco Franchini, were considered
“unknowns”; its sponsors, the engineers at Ove Arup & Partners, were
simply forgotten; the project’s idea of a “Live Centre of Information” was
denigrated as a “metallic dam” in the heart of Paris; the jury was presumed to
have been dominated by the charismatic Philip Johnson and the man who
initiated the competition, President of the Republic Georges Pompidou, to
have been forced to bend to the jury’s will.
Fifty years after those events, it is time to analyze these false certainties
through the first chronological and documentary reconstruction of the
genesis of the Centre Pompidou.

a Petite École
Michael Meredith, Hilary Sample, MOS

A compendium of children’s design exercises by architects from around

the world accompany illustrations and photographs documenting the
construction of the Petite École pavilion.
As part of the 2019 Biennale d’architecture et de paysage in Versailles,
France, MOS constructed Petite École, a small, open-air pavilion to house
educational workshops for children. It is a place for looking and making, and
for making and looking, constructed with 688 aluminum pieces modeled,
flattened, cut, folded, prefabricated, shipped, and then assembled onsite. It
is made to be taken down and reassembled elsewhere. It is designed to be
easily understood, made of simple building elements: a long, low roof with
columns and stacked beams holding it up.
Undertaken during various design workshops, single page design exercises
written by architects were assembled into a large book and given to children.
A Book on Making a Petite École considers basic questions of design pedagogy,
abstraction, accessibility, experimentation, and equity, while considering and
reconsidering architecture.

014 · Bodies of Air
Air as Architecture Materiality

Air might be the opposite of building, but it is not the opposite of

architecture. Air is architectural with all its aesthetic, biological, ecological,
economic, environmental, ethical, financial, philosophical, political, scientific,
social, and technological meanings.
Air belongs to the family of multiple, heterogeneous, and massively
distributed objects in time and space. Air is an hyperobject that brings with
it the planetary scale with all its intense pluralism.
This book opens a series of narratives where air emerges at the intersection
of all materiality—a transient material across time and space scales. This
book works on how to introduce these discussions in architecture practice.
A conscious effort to address the body of air within architecture discourse
will help these questions to be meaningful for architecture practice. The
transscalar dimension of architecture challenges the conventional apparatus
of architecture, opening questions about process, time, and entropy as
opposed to form, space, and order.

015 · A Certain Kind of Life

Jimmy Carter, Abigail Chang, Francesco Marullo, Agata Siemionow

A Certain Kind of Life examines how we dwell and live together, delving
into the relationships between architecture and asceticism, domesticity and
estrangement, rules and transgressions, solitary rituals and collective forms
within both historical and contemporary societies.
This book derives an approach to individual and collective living from
monastic architecture. Alongside research and documentation of a large-
scale pavilion and exhibition featured at the 2019 Lisbon Architecture
Triennale, the book builds on drawings, texts, and images from scholars
and architects who contemplate questions surrounding solitude, retreat, and
quietness. The narrative considers how architecture can distill our everyday
social encounters into a building language through different mediums.
From these various perspectives, A Certain Kind of Life examines how we
have historically lived together, alone while continuing to share, adapt and
build under unpredictable conditions that bind us globally.

016 · Spatial Infrastructure
Essays on Architectural Thinking as a Form of Knowledge

José Aragüez

Titled Spatial Infrastructure: Essays on Architectural Thinking as a Form of

Knowledge, José Aragüez’s second book revolves around a new concept in
architecture, spatial infrastructure, that operates both as a design tool capable of
projecting architectural thinking forward, and as an analytical category that shifts
our understanding of the history of the field and contemporary production.
Taken together, the collection of essays presented here investigates some of
the most intractable issues pertaining to architectural discourse, while also
examining scientific, critical, and cultural dimensions where relevant. Key
subjects include a building’s discursive building, engineering patents and
spatial disposition in architecture, typological invention and sponge surfaces,
“the organic” at the intersection of architecture and philosophy, imageability
in the context of an evolving market economy, language vis-à-vis self-
determinacy in creative practices, a building’s spatial kernel, and the possibility
of architectural metacriticality. Building upon each other to engender a
coherent and distinct outlook on twentieth-century and contemporary
architecture, these essays put forth a strong argument for architectural
thinking that emerges from intimate knowledge of its capacities.

This book presents a collection of ideas, organized as a visual assemblage of

work.
One might ask what is the role of a book in today’s world of digital access,
where the easy availability of information offsets the need for the printed
medium. And the answer might just be that books are made of paper pages,
with texture, and surface finish, things that digital screens do not possess.
But also to borrow potentials from the digital, such as the possibility to
zoom in and zoom out, to rotate, and pan.
All these things can also be done in a book, as we can allow for each page to
be an interface to the space of a drawing. This notion is that the endless grid
that is ubiquitous to any design software, where multiple design iterations
that float beyond gravity, can be grounded on the surface of a page while
maintaining the allure of dynamic design processes.

Designing, building and living for cooperative models

Tomoko Sakamoto, David Lorente, Ricardo Devesa

Barcelona offers a prime example of the co-housing model as an asset

prized for its use value as opposed to investment. This book is a compilation
of cooperative housing projects in Barcelona, both complete and under
construction. It explains how the co-housing process is managed in terms of
architecture, urban planning, financing, legality, and taxation, and delves into
the experience of living in a community fueled a cooperative spirit.
The content of the book presents designs for cooperative housing,
accompanied by a critical vision of the model’s implications in terms of the
transfer of use or co-living. Finished and inhabited projects are compiled
along with ongoing projects, to offer a general view of this way of living in
Barcelona.
The case studies are explained by members of cooperatives, experts and
designers who look at aspects of design, sustainability, construction and
urban life. This book is a tool for understanding the design and construction
of co-housing and the community life that goes on there.

026 · Layering the City
Research on Infrastructure and Public Space in Macau

Rui Leão, F. Carlotta Bruni, LBA

Through expanded design strategies in post hand over Macau and

the research of infrastructure design and public space within dense
environments, LBA defined un-purposed space as a mechanism to
intertwine private and public spaces while setting up a model of
opportunistic urbanism where designers become agents of innovative
procurement strategies.
Working beyond the strict realm of design and the commissioned briefs,
LBA discovered that architects could sometimes become agents of
change, negotiators or policy-makers, thus changing both the culture of
commissioning projects and the spatial propositions for the future city by
adding new layers of community interaction and cultural use to the overall
design. It is a labor of generosity that is at the core of the architectural
agenda, when we architects are able to address the client’s desires and add
our own agendas in response to inherent urban issues to fulfill our true civic
responsibility.

This book tells the story of the new funicular of Tibidabo Park: la Cuca de
Llum (glow worm). The emblematic funicular has been rehabilitated several
times since its installation in 1901, however, in 2020 it was decided to design
a new funicular, which was to be sustainable, transparent, fast and accessible.
The new funicular, designed by MIAS in collaboration with Leitner
Ropeways, achieves maximum integration into the landscape by hiding its
installations, and thus enables the best views of the city of Barcelona. This
book shows not only the history of the park and its funicular, but also all the
details of its innovative design and connection to the city.

028 · Barcelona Fragile City
A Critical Atlas in Times of Pandemic

Mar Castarlenas, Isabel Castiñeira, Isabel Crespo,
Kathrin Golda-Pongratz, Ricard Gratacòs, Marta Llorente,
Helena Majó, Marina Povedano, Antoni Ramon, Carmen Rodríguez,
Maribel Rosselló, Marta Serra, Tiziano Schürch

The book explores the concept of urban fragility during the COVID-19
pandemic in Barcelona, associating the spatial dimension of the city with the
impact of social, cultural and environmental realities that are less visible but
that can be decisive for the city of the future.
Barcelona Fragile City presents an alternative image of the impact of the
pandemic on the city of Barcelona that can be superimposed upon the
images of the conventional city, allowing both to be compared. Through
theoretical approaches, site-specific research and community involvement,
the book seeks to discover and make visible the hidden spatiality of the
city during the first state of alarm. It presents everyday-life practices
associated with space that have not been transmitted by statistics nor media,
representing vulnerable spaces and also associated to consciousness and
memory of space of the private and shared imaginary.

029 · Lines of Development
Analysis, Geometry, Architecture

Cameron Wu

Much attention has been paid to developable surfaces in building technology

recently, especially in the area of digital geometric consultancy. The advent
of complex forms in contemporary architecture has necessitated the use of
developable surfaces to post-rationalize geometries of double curvature for
economy and constructability.
Lines Of Development traces the history of ruled surface geometries and
their relationship to architectural design and practice. Theoretical writings
describe the intractable presence and mathematical significance of ruled
surfaces throughout the history of architecture leading up to contemporary
practice.
A collection of case studies with analytical drawings and descriptions show
how ruled surfaces are used in historical and current precedents. A geometric
primer exhibits various combinatory techniques used to produce formal
architectural idioms. Finally, a collection of architectural projects exhibits
these geometric design techniques.

030 · Flex, Crease + Wrinkle
A Companion to Curved Folding and Developable Form

Joel Lamere

Flex, Crease + Wrinkle exhibits the broad range of formal opportunities

developed through manipulating sheets, and in particular through the act of
folding. This handbook for architects and designers presents a comprehensive
set of rules for curved folding, with an extensive visual catalog of examples at
many scales.
Flex, Crease + Wrinkle is a unique compendium on the geometry of sheets. In
elaborating the formal outcomes made possible through select manipulations
of sheet materials, the book mixes precise geometric definitions, accessible
descriptions of technique, digital resources including example scripts, and
speculative musings on the value of such work.
The included designs range from origami to object to proto-architectural
installation, suggesting techniques for translating such forms across scales,
in turn transcending disciplinary boundaries between industrial design,
architecture, infrastructure engineering and others. The explicit intent of this
book is to instrumentalize folding and related material transformations for
form-making at many scales.

031 · Digital Decoys
An Architectural Index of Deceptions

Constance Vale – The Factory of Smoke & Mirrors

Digital Decoys examines the social and political implications of the decoys
that have emerged in the age of imaging and the new opportunities they
create for architects to challenge existing hierarchies and systems of power
through agency, expressions of identity, and collaborative resistance within
digital platforms.
Contemporary representations are the products of a wide range of tools and
techniques, engaged in ever more complex mediational exchanges, and have
markedly different qualities than their antecedents. That is, architecture’s
mediations today are decoys of past modes of representation.
Digital decoys exist as dualities of data and picture, image and object,
architects’ working space and immersive worlds. These composites of image
and object are not neutral vehicles and understanding and controlling their
forces is a crucial task for architects today. Decoys are inherently political
enterprises that can mask and carry into built form ecological, economic,
social, and political violence embedded in digital media and culture.

032 · A House Deconstructed

Mark Jarzombek, Vikramaditya Prakash

This book ‘deconstructs’ a single recently constructed house located in

Seattle, WA, in an attempt to recover its backstory. The information is
presented along four vectors – atoms, labors, sources and ingredients.
Though remarkably detailed, the A House Deconstructed contends that a huge
proportion of what we ‘know’ about the house is unknowable, not because
our epistemological instruments aren’t strong enough or calibrated precisely
enough, but because things themselves are indeterminate, uncertain.
This begs the question about agency. If we are to critique our profession
and even improve some of its claims about Sustainability, then we must
develop a more robust understanding of the building industry and the
sourcing and making of materials. We must even develop a stronger
awareness of the history of atoms and how architecture brings that history
into a remarkable focus.

Marcel Smets

“With this book, Marcel Smets not only offers an inspiring vocabulary to
describe the spatial features of the city but, above all, a unique dictionnaire
raisonné to discuss past and future interventions in our largest man-made
artefact.”
Tom Avermaete, Chair for the History and Theory of Urban Design, ETH Zürich.

“Marcel Smets’ lexicon of fundamentals offers an operative conceptual

framework for urban design, a series of spatial elements, systems and
approaches that become a starter tool-kit for the contemporary urbanist.
It is an important contribution to the idea of a reflective yet pragmatic
form of urbanism that maps the existing urban condition and at the same
time rewrites it as a series of spatial figures for a possible or even desired
urbanity”.

034 · Participatory Design Thinking in
Urban Design Education
John Odhiambo Onyango

This book provides literature of the social movements that led to the rise of
alternative design methods. It also critically examines the methodologies
used and how they contribute to best practice in place-making; and it
suggests universal application that may be incorporated in the use of the
urban design laboratory model as a tool for educating future architecture &
urban designers.
Since the Boyer of 1996 of ‘Building Communities: A New future for
Architectural Education and Practice’ there has been some movements in
architectural and design schools and practitioners exploring ways to inculcate
a concern for larger social issues in the design process. Several alternative
approaches to the education, practice of architecture and urban design
have emerged rooted in the Social Architecture based on four groups of
participants; the private visionary; the public professional with a vision; the
professional based at non-profit organizations and the activist university. The
urban laboratory model is one such model housed in the activist university.

035 · Plug-Ins
Design for City Making in Barcelona

Ezio Manzini, Albert Fuster, Roger Paez

This book’s central argument is that plug-ins, situated design outcomes that
aim to enrich the complex system of the city and expand its potentialities,
are a solid yet supple conceptual framework for rethinking how design can
be a key agent in city making.
Plug-Ins showcases some of the projects developed by Elisava’s Design for
City Making Research Lab, a research institute that investigates the role of
design in the material and social construction of our habitats, focusing on
spatiality, temporality, interactions, meaning, citizen engagement and social
impact. Projects by students, professors and researchers, in collaboration with
multiple partners including the public administration, NGOs, industry and
academy, articulate the concept of design as plug-ins.
This notion of plug-ins results from a renewed approach to how design can
be a key agent in city making. Given that the city is a system of relationships,
design for city making means understanding, reinforcing and articulating
this network. We posit plug-ins as situated design outcomes that aim to
enrich the complex system of the city and expand its potentialities.

036 · Data. Energy. Matter.
Why Architecture is Key to Climate Change

David Serero

The work of Serero, through investigations of patterns found in nature, does

not envision architecture to create new spaces, but rather as a strategy to
unfold together patterns of cultural, social and spatial origins.
Architecture, as a living organism, establishes a relationship between beings
and their environment, where the notions of energy, breathing and light are
the vectors for the conception of spaces. Serero’s work rethinks architecture
and shifts away its permanent condition towards a transient and ephemeral
one, with greater spatial versatility and multiplying the potential usage to
propose an open architecture.
Data. Energy. Matter reveals three profound transformations of recent
architecture: the digital revolution and its impact on creative work in all
conceptual aspects, the emergence of an internet of energy that buildings
will contribute to create to share energy, and the profusion of new usage
of private and public spaces, both collaborative and connected, creating an
interstitial experience of spaces between the physical and the virtual.

Global Contest to Rethink Our Habitat from the Body to the City.
9th Advanced Architecture Contest

The Institute for Advanced Architecture of Catalonia (IAAC) calls its 9th
Advanced Architecture Contest as a global reflection to rethink human
settlements at a time when our natural environments and the human
habitats are more clearly intertwined.
We look to the model of Biocities, cities that follow the principles of
ecological principles in order to promote life and biodiversity, to provide us
with potential design solutions. How can we reimagine our cities as Biocities,
capable of creating an ecologically attuned and reciprocal relationship with
nature? This year’s competition challenges students and professionals from
all over the world to propose how to design urban spaces, cities, buildings,
objects, or solutions of any scale, directed towards the transition to Biocities.
The contest encourages participants to propose a design at any scale,
anywhere in the world, that reflects different cultural, environmental,
economic, or social conditions.

038 · Geospaces
Continuities Between Humans, Spaces, and the Earth

Alper Derinboğaz

Geospaces is an extended visual essay of ideas, images, drawings and projects

that follows the work of Alper Derinboğaz over the past decade, framing an
approach to architecture based on empathy with earth.
Architectural history is a fragment of the long evolution of forms of
habitat. The shape of the lands and the way we inhabit them are at the
root of all architectural endeavours. However, our established conception
of architecture is based on a hierarchy between nature and culture. To
move towards an architecture more in tune with earth, we need to think
in continuities, looking at the emergence of natural forms, the history of
human inhabitation and the future of fabrication technologies. What if we
see buildings as iterations of nature rather than artificial objects?
Exploring architecture through the lens of evolution, Geospaces traces
relationships between topography, geology, genetics, ecologies, and
construction technologies, arguing that a hybrid approach to making will
shape our future habitats.

039 · Urban Mix
Visualizing Movement in Eight Crossroads Around the World

Stéphane Lemoine – AP5

Urban Mix explores the devices and attitudes observable in urban crossroads
of 8 major world cities. The diversity and complexity of crossings allow
variable freedom of movement and define urban life, according to their
cultural particularities.
Mobility questions our ways of inhabiting the city. They are attached to
multiple social approaches, constrained by the geography of the city and
linked to the available energies. The frequentation of the city is mainly
observed as a saturation or an animation and in an abstract and numerical
way. But what is the nature of the movements in the cities, the daily life
of more than half of the inhabitants of the planet? What are the speeds,
rhythms, interactions, trajectories, specificities in an urban square?
Many data describes flows, but don’t show the dynamics and the diversity of
movements. This book focuses on 8 cases around the world and proposes to
look at them at a human scale by drawing the paths of each moving element.

Adib Cure, Carie Penabad

Made in Miami | Hecho en Miami is an alternative, bi-lingual guidebook of

the city of Miami. Through the power of observation, it highlights the often
overlooked experiences that make this multi-cultural city unique.
The book focuses on the documentation of buildings and spaces that emerge
as a confluence of overlapping cultures to reveal a certain “Miami-ness” in
the current built environment. In viewing a more prosaic or commonplace
city, the book not only accepts Miami in its present condition but grounds
the investigation in a sense of “realism” that reveals a reality that is far from
ordinary.
The book contains essays, interviews, and a collection of 70 drawn examples

The Leaf Plan. Towards the Ecological Transition presents innovative

methodologies and practices to guide and support a sustainable urban
development to cope with climate, social, economic changes.
The book will illustrate comprehensive design approaches to address climate
change, urban metabolism, temporary uses, landscape multifunctionality,

flexibility and adaptability. Trento is the experimental territory where the
innovative process, methodologies and theoretical reflection have been tested
above the framework of the three-year research project “TUT Trento Urban
Transformation”.
The book is structured around the five challenges (Ecological, Accessible,
Smart, Welcoming and Beauty) proposed by the TUT research group for the
Trento Leaf Plan, the new metabolic plan for the city of Trento. Beside the
innovative field-test experimentations, the holistic methodological approach
proposed by the book will be transferable and adapted in other metropolitan
contexts to enhance the urban ecological transition.

Hybrid City

The book is a compilation of essays from a symposium Hybrid Factory/

Hybrid City that Nina Rappaport convened with Future Urban Legacy Lab
at the Politecnico di Torino in February 2020.
The authors wrote about their own projects and urban studies to address
how to mix and reingrate manufacturing in cities. They address questions
such as: How do we break the planning and land use patterns of segregated
zoning by class and function? How can we encourage and design mixed-use
manufacturing at the building and the city scale? How can the hybrid model
change with new technologies, sustainable manufacturing, and advanced
production systems?
After Covid-19 we are seeing that this mix is more sustainable and resilient.
Ultimately the impact will be to encourage, inspire, and help lead cities in a
mix of use, sustainable eco-systems, closed loop production that integrates
all aspect of the built environment. These kinds of spaces and companies will
provide more job opportunities for urban workers and bring new technology
skills to workers so that they can learn new methods for manufacturing.

043 · Beyond Resilience
Are the Cities Ready for Collapses?

Willy Müller

The focus of this book has been concentrated on a criticism of the

current resilience strategies: how adapting an anachronistic model
simply perpetuates its obsolescence, and despite generating temporary
improvements, it does not offer us in its reformist vision a real solution to
the problems that we will have to face.
The focus of this book has been concentrated on current resilience strategies,
a useful concept to understand and act in a complex, global world with signs
of imbalances in the urban models that came from the past, but that has
become a wildcard easy to use.
The increasing impossibility of encrypting the term resilience, of
approaching it from more reliable scientific principles, leads us to a
conceptual drift that this book echoes. Far from understanding and
preparing for a system change, resilient thinking is presented on many
occasions as a survival table that facilitates the permanence of the established
model, promoting small strategic modifications to a trust in a system that is
increasingly compromised.

044 · The Mannerist Mind
An Architecture of Crisis

Francisco González de Canales

Departing from a discussion on what it would be a mannerist attitude in

the architecture of today, and theorizing around it, this book analyzes some
works of contemporary European practices including Lutjens Padmanabhan,
architekten de vylder vinck taillieu, TEd’A, Maio, 6a architects and AOffice
KGDVS.
“Art critics between the seventeenth and nineteenth centuries imprinted a
long-standing derogatory meaning to the word “mannerism”. Even though
scholars such as John Shearman or Wolfgang Lotz rehabilitated the term
to a certain degree during the twentieth century, it is still uncommon
nowadays to find the expression “mannerist” used without certain pejorative
connotations.
This book provides a contemporary revision of the mannerist attitude for the
present, creating a framework to analyze and shed light not only on the work
that these practices are carrying out, but also on the less evident filiations
and affinities, as well as on their deeper implications.

José Luis Alvarez Tinajero

Gilardi House thoroughly documents Luis Barragan´s last project, la ´CASA

GILARDI´, an emblem of Mexican architecture.
In 1976, 10 years after his retirement from the practice of architecture,
Barragan accepted the commission of two young publicists passionate about
his architecture and designed the Giraldi House. This masterpiece was the
last built project of Pritzker Prize winner Luis Barragan´s prolific career.
Gilardi House aims to disseminate the complete history of the project,
from the first sketch to its construction. It presents for the very first-time
documents, plans, images, sketches and memories of distinguished visitors,
ambitioning to shed light about this unpublished and largely unknown
masterpiece and unique cultural establishment. This book not only unpacks
original documentation of the project, but also includes critical reflections
by contemporary architects and critics who have visited this private house,
sharing a critical approach and a unique lesson for today’s architecture.

Rise and Fall of Experimentation in Concrete

This book is a collection of essays centers on Félix Candela’s departure

from Mexico City and arrival in Chicago during the end of the 1960s and
beginning of the 1970s.
Felix Candela, one of the most important and iconic architects of the 20th
century, became world-renowned for his many captivating concrete-shell
structures in Latin America and across the globe. Félix Candela From México
City to Chicago provides a unique lens in the specific political, economic,
and material conditions that always surrounded, often promoted, and
occasionally inhibited his work.
To understand the timeframe of the 1970s, different essays had to delve into
archives and conducted interviews with his former friends, students, and
colleagues at the University of Illinois at Chicago where he was teaching.
Many of these findings will be presented here for the first time, aiming to
illuminate this complex constellation of inventions, events, and external
forces that surrounded Candela’s work.

047 · The ReView
How and What for

Iñaki Alday / Tulane School of Architecture

This edition of The ReView tries to communicate the pedagogical project and
some of the lines of research of the Tulane School of Architecture (TuSA)
through the work, mostly visual, of its students and professors. As in any
educational project, the essential questions are “what for?” and “how?”.
The Review: How and what for, presents the pedagogical project of the TuSA
through the work, mostly visual, of both students and faculty over the past
few years. The book is organized into two main blocks, “how” and “what
for”. On the one hand, “how” exposes the sequence of studies and theoretical
courses with exceptional pedagogical methodologies. On the other hand,
“what for” shows the connection of the TuSA’s academic work with the
social, economic, and environmental reality we face today.
The conceptual link that connects the “How?” and the “What for?” is
the idea of innovation. In a time of global crisis, the Architecture - and
educational systems - needs to be revised. This revision of academic
programs is crucial to educate new architects to address social and
environmental challenges from an innovative perspective.

Re-thinking urban obsolescence

Diego García-Setién, Enrique Espinosa, Begoña de Abajo,

Almudena Ribot / CoLaboratorio

PostDomestiCity is an enquiry and speculative exercise into the conditions of

obsolescence int the post-industrial city, from a contemporary perspective.
Working with three paradigmatic cases that were conceived from industrial
logics – the Packard plant in Detroit, PREVI neighbourhood in Lima,
and the Grand’Mare complex in Rouen– the book explores alternative
ways of reusing, reprogramming, and redensifying the built environment as
alternatives to demolition.
Relevant voices in the field of architecture – including Anne Lacaton,
Marina Otero, Ippolito Pestellini, Duplex Architects, Lacol, Antonio
Vázquez de Castro, Carmen Espegel, Luis Takahashi, OF Architects,
DABG, Luis Palacios, Lys Villalba and Ignacio Borrego – share their
approaches and visions of the future for the pre-existing city, helping
us to imagine post-domesticity in the current climate crisis and socio-
technological context.

049 · My Name Is Univers

Toni Pou

My Name is Universe is a book of interviews with internationally renowned

personalities through which some of the layers of knowledge included in
the Periodic Table are revealed, recreated by Eugenia Balcells in the mural
Homage to the Elements.
Who would have thought that a work of art based on a scientific idea could
explode like a veritable intellectual Big Bang and take us on a thrilling
journey from atoms to galaxies through music, philosophy, art, cinema,
chemistry, poetry, theater, dance, astrophysics, education, architecture,
painting, quantum physics, religion or mathematics?
My Name is Universe is a book in which science, the arts and the humanities
are intertwined, appealing to the transversality and unity of knowledge.
A text that cultivates an attitude of wonder at the world around us, the
engine of artistic and scientific creation, and that stimulates the reader’s
curiosity and creativity.

10 commitments to combat climate change

Batlleiroig

RECENT RELEASES
After 40 years of professional experience developed in three areas of work
—City-Territory, Landscape-Public Space and Building—, Batlle i Roig
acquires a new commitment and positions itself in the face of the climate
emergency, generating a sustainability matrix through which to contextualize
your urban projects and urban strategies.
At Batlleiroig we have been talking about Landscape and Nature since our
foundation in 1981. We are committed to the environment and involved in
finding solutions to solve the climate emergency.
The motto “Merging City and Nature” serves to bring together our
improvement commitments in each of the actions we carry out. We work in
three different disciplines: Urbanism, Landscaping and Architecture, trying
to be very specialists in each of them but from the essential transversality
that is required to develop any intervention. The climate emergency becomes
today our main transversality, the one that should guide our actions.

Architecture of UN Peacekeeping Missions

Malkit Shoshan

RECENT RELEASES
The book is part of FAST’s ongoing activism, research, design, and advocacy
work. It builds on earlier presentations, including the exhibition BLUE:
Architecture of UN Peacekeeping Missions for the Dutch Pavilion of the
15th Venice Architecture Biennale.
At the intersection of architecture, urban planning, international relations
and activism, BLUE: Architecture of UN Peacekeeping Missions seeks not
only to change UN missions but also to open up and expand the operative
realm of architecture.
It combines research and projects involving policymakers, military engineers
and officers, anthropologists, local inhabitants, activists, rebels, diplomats and
ministers, architects and planners. BLUE offers examples of how entrenched
institutional bureaucracies can be confronted by using more inclusive models
of engagement, and it shows how designs rooted in local cultures and
empowerment can address a history of violence.

RECENT RELEASES
Vacant Spaces NY begins gathering the incomplete data available and
documenting vacant spaces in New York City.
Organized from large to small, general to specific, vacancy in the United
States to case studies of specific vacancies in Manhattan, Michael Meredith,
Hilary Sample, and their architecture studio MOS imagine possibilities for
repurposing current vacant spaces in New York City.
Usually empty, sometimes dusty, sometimes with brown paper covering the
glass. Now, vacancy has only increased. In the densest city in the United
States. During a housing crisis. Throughout a pandemic. The quantity of
vacant spaces is anyone’s best guess. It’s only partially documented. They
hide in plain sight. We have provided as case studies that imagine some
possibilities for transforming current vacant spaces into housing or social
services, taking part in a collective process of imagining a better city. There is
also a section on Covid 19, which infiltrated New York during our research.

053 · Systems Upgrade
(Re)fabricating Tectonic Prototypes

Leire Asensio Villoria, David Mah

RECENT RELEASES
The book submits that a deep study of legacy material artifacts, through the
lens of contemporary digital design can constitute a valuable bridge between
design history and contemporary creative practice.
Systems Upgrade focuses on an investigation into the ways that we may re-
describe and upgrade these design legacies for extension in future practice
and explicates this through a deep dive into the re-description and re-design
of the works of Austrian American sculptor and designer: Erwin Hauer.
This long-spanning research into the construction of links between the
deep study of precedent and future practice has been advanced through
a simultaneous engagement with digital archeology and the new tools of
creative practice. Invested in the belief of a need to open design and its
material legacies to a multiverse, this research has yielded a collection of
methods, techniques and novel outcomes grounded in history yet openly
speculative in outlook.

The Americas 2
Territory & Expeditions

RECENT RELEASES
New approaches to nature, landscape, and territory were key in the jury’s
and architect’s architecture discussions during the second cycle of the
MCHAP prize.
Based on the selection of the finalist projects—Weekend House by SPBR,
New Campus for the UTEC by Grafton Architects, Pachacamac Museum
by Llosa Cortegana Architects, Tower 41 by Alberto Kalach, Star Apartmens
by Michael Maltzan Architecture, and Grace Farms by SANAA—, the jury
conversations and “discoveries” were very much conditioned by the ideas of
nature and its intimate relation to architecture and landscape.
This book is part a reader, part a catalogue, part a visual essay/research on
these matters. The texts and projects are in themselves contributions to
the field as they show new understandings about the relationship between
architecture and its environment as well as singularities and genealogies of
the most prominent architectures of the Americas.

055 · The Planet After
Geoengineering
Rania Ghosn, El Hadi Jazairy

RECENT RELEASES
The Planet After Geoengineering is a graphic novel in five speculative fictions
that imagine the worlds of climate modification technologies and their
controversies.
The term “geoengineering” refers to technologies that counteract the effects
of anthropogenic climate change by deliberately intervening in Earth
systems. In the midst of a climate crisis, and with disparate views on whether
planetary-scale design is the appropriate response at all, The Planet After
Geoengineering employs a speculative fiction approach to think with and
against geoengineering as a form of planetary management.
Each geostory— Petrified Carbon, Arctic Albedo, Sky River, Sulfur Storm,
and Dust Cloud —depicts possible future Earths that we come to inhabit on
the heels of a geoengineering intervention all while situating such promisory
visions within a genealogy of climates. Such fabrications of an engineerable
earth open a space to forge a new geo-politics that includes the actual
Earth— its dimensions, processes, and lifeforms —as constitutive of design
and the planet.

056 · Strange Objects, New Solids
and Massive Things
Archi-Tectonics

Winka Dubbeldam, Archi-Tectonics

RECENT RELEASES
The object as solid, having three dimensions, is not just a different formal
trend, but a paradigm shift; a reconceiving of how the architectural object
is produced and experienced, changing the very concept of objectivity and
meaning of architecture.
This book celebrates the potential of the strange object, which finds its origin
in the proto-space –the moment between the becoming of the idea and the
ultimate shape it takes; the state of the still obscure and ‘uninhibited’ object
outside the established framework of signification.
As showcased and examined in Strange Objects, New Solids and Massive
Things, from the earliest projects and regardless of scale, Archi-Tectonics
has valued performance over form, design intelligence over style. Through
prototypes and mock-ups, process documentation and testimonials, the book
presents 10 current and recent projects that celebrate the particular and
singular over the ideal and universal.

058 · Outdoor Domesticity
On the Relationships between Trees, Architecture, and Inhabitants

Ricardo Devesa

RECENT RELEASES
Trees have been deliberately connected with houses since they were
introduced as a prominent part of architectural design.
The first part of Outdoor Domesticity is to present a collection of exemplary
five houses that evinced explicit relationships with preexisting trees. La Casa
(B. Rudofsky, 1969), Cottage Caesar (M. Breuer, 1951), Ville La Roche (Le
Corbusier & P. Jeanneret, 1923), Villa Pepa ( J. Navarro Baldeweg, 1994) and
Hexenhaus (A. & P. Smithson, 1984-2002).
The second part of the book contributes with three theoretical concerns
for the contemporary project, those ones which are established in the
process, with respect to time, place and outdoor domesticity in modern
western housing. Finally, the establishment of these connections between
architecture and trees enlarges the idea of the house: the tree serves to draw
the surrounding environment into the house and, as a result, becomes an
intrinsic part of the house itself.

059 · A Toolbox for Exuma, The Bahamas
Environmental Management, Design and Planning

Mohsen Mostafavi, Gareth Doherty, Robert Daurio

RECENT RELEASES
This book presents an approach to environmental management, design and
planning rooted in fieldwork and engagement. Both a book and a portable
exhibition, A Toolbox includes a number of unfolding pamphlets, which can
be displayed as posters or read as a book.
The world is currently facing many ecological challenges that relate to
questions of resource scarcity, pollution, climate change, and risk. These
issues are amplified in fragile island communities. In this context, how
should society and governments anticipate the future of citizens?
A Toolbox for Exuma, The Bahamas is based on collaboration among the
Government of The Bahamas, The Bahamas National Trust (BNT), and
Harvard University Graduate School of Design. The Toolbox illustrates
a novel research approach leading to an innovative planning process. The
Toolbox offers a complement to land use plans that might end up “sitting on
a shelf.” It offers a process, rooted in fieldwork, which is active and reflexive,
descriptive and prescriptive.

060 · Monsoon as Method
Assembling Monsoonal Multiplicities

Lindsay Bremner, Beth Cullen, Christina Leigh Geros,

Harshavardhan Bhat, Anthony Powis, John Cook, Tom Benson

RECENT RELEASES
An edited volume by Monsoon Assemblages, a European Research Council
funded research project.
The book presents the methods that Monsoon Assemblages has evolved
for engaging the monsoon, a globally connected weather system, as a
co-producer of urban life and space in South and Southeast Asian cities.
It challenges views of climate as an inert backdrop to urban life, instead
suggesting that it is materially and spatially active in shaping urban politics,
ecologies, infrastructures, buildings and bodies.
It combines critical texts with cartography, photography and ethnography
to present the project’s methodology and its outcomes and invites urban
practitioners to think differently about space, time, representation and
human and non-human agency. It offers intra-disciplinary, intra-active
methods for rethinking human and non-human relations with weather in
ways that meet the challenges of climate change and the Anthropocene.

061 · Ambiguous Territory
Architecture, Landscape and the Postnatural

Ellie Abrons, Paula Gaetano Adi, amid.cero9, Amy Balkin, Philip

Beesley, Ursula Biemann, The Bittertang et al.

RECENT RELEASES
This book brings together the work of over forty architects, landscape
architects, artists, and historians engaged in an exploration of art and design’s
place in a time of environmental uncertainty and existential threat.
Conceived in both environmental and disciplinary terms, the concept
of “ambiguous territory” seeks to define conditions of uncertainty
between nature and culture as well as architecture, art, and landscape.
Ambiguous Territory advances the argument that it is through such forms
of transdisciplinary practice that new opportunities emerge for creative
thinking about our changing relationship to the Earth.
Initially staged as an exhibition and related symposium at the Taubman
College of Architecture and Urban Planning at the University of Michigan
the work included in this volume can be seen to engage estrangement as a
productive site of intellectual and creative potential. Resisting at once naive
optimism and cynical pessimism about the place of art and design.

062 · Climax Change!
How architecture must transform in the age of ecological emergency

Pedro Gadanho

RECENT RELEASES
Climax Change! represents the much-needed overview of how climate
change and the current environmental emergency will affect the practice
of architecture.
Offers an overview of how the current environmental emergency will impact
the practice of architecture. At a crossroads in which the construction sector
and built environment produce nearly 40% of greenhouse gases accountable
for global warming, architects are just starting to acknowledge their
complicity in an impending disaster.
In need of a paradigm shift similar to that of the Modern Movement,
architecture desperately requires clear guidelines and targets so as to operate
its inevitable transformation towards an ecologically-friendly design logic.
From historical analyses of ecocide or the environmental avant-gardes, to
topics such as decarbonization, degrowth, the Great Transition and the
aspirations of Green New Deals, this book features ten essays around today’s
climate change debates, bringing them home to architectural thinking.

This edition contains two volumes of Carlos Ferrater and OAB’s work.
BOOK CARLOS FERRATER – Before setting up in 2006, along with
Xavier Martí, Lucía Ferrater and Borja Ferrater, the Office of Architecture
in Barcelona (OAB), Carlos Ferrater developed an intense and prolonged
professional career on his own since 1971, with his advanced project for the
Instant City. This book reflects Carlos Ferrater professional practice, having
proved his worth in many projects of enormous relevance and distinction.
BOOK OAB – This volume is OAB’s latest monograph. The contents
are organized as a collection of chapters that turn the spotlight on both
projects and recently built works. The book covers the theoretical aspects of
each project, focusing on innovation, research, and the application of new
technologies. At the same time, as we explore each project’s development,
emphasis is placed upon context, the building’s objectives, and the social
roots of the architect’s work.

Collective Intelligence in Urban Design

Learning Cities explores the “intelligence” applied in the processes and

outcomes of designing our urban environments.
How do our cities learn? Can machines design and what?
From a variety of applications of artificial intelligence and machine learning
for urban planning to co-creation processes that merge crowd intelligence
with digital technologies, Learning Cities highlights that “intelligence”
in the built environment should be understood beyond human, object
or machinic intelligence alone. Through a variety of contributions from
experts in different fields the current IAAC Bits Journal Issue explores novel
collective intelligence design processes in which designers, users, the built
environment, and digital codes all play a fundamental role in a unique
resonance that takes place among them.

065 · Geometric Taxonomy
Carlos Ferrater, OAB

Ignacio Paricio

RECENT RELEASES
Geometric Taxonomy gets closer to the geometries of Carlos Ferrater and
OAB that are present in timeless architecture, those that are explicit in the
great treatises, those that dazzled us with “the correct and magnificent wise
play of forms under the light”, the elemental forms that inspired modernity a
hundred years ago.
Growing out of the socialization of collective work and based on the
personal tendencies of its members, this report includes the projects and
works built during this most recent period, projects and works that privilege
the desire to work in different contexts by extending and enriching OAB’s
range when seeking new channels of formal expression.
To touch upon the theoretical aspects of the project and upon the
investigation of new technologies, without forgoing a respect for the
location, the social origin of the work of the architect, and the constructional
rationale in the latent aspects of the proposal and the development of the
design.

066 · Behavioral Formation
Volatile Design Processes and the Emergence of a Strange Specificity

Roland Snooks

Emergent processes of formation create intensive, volatile, intricate, complex

phenomena. These processes have come to define our contemporary
understanding of the nature of becoming, which stands in contrast to
established notions of architectural design and authorship.
The design research of Roland Snooks is a speculation on the relationship
between emergent processes of formation and architectural design intention,
and explores the strange specificity of an architecture that is drawn out of
this interaction. This research operates within a larger architectural and
cultural concern for complex systems and their role in algorithmic
design processes.
The original methodological territory carved out from this larger milieu
is the articulation of a design process in which architectural intention is
embedded within emergent processes.

The first monographic publication focused on the Florentine UFO group

(1968-1978) and its legacy for the contemporary project.
The contemporary context is defined by a unique conjuncture. On one hand,
we witness the revival of the Radical Architecture that from the avant-garde
experiments of the origins recovers creative processes and iconographic
fragments while nullifying the original ideological and political values. On
the other hand, we see social protests in defense of fundamental rights of
democracy, as in 1968.
With these premises, Architecture is now reinvestigating those ephemeral
experiments that have endured half a century as new “stone monuments”
capable of indicating new perspectives for both research and design.

068 · Inventing Greenland
Designing an Arctic Nation

Bert De Jonghe

Inventing Greenland is a critical and timely assemblage of stories

highlighting a shifting landscape – one born from the imagination,
projections, and ambitions of a wide range of actors.
Today, especially within the design discipline, there is a lack of
understanding of Greenland as a complex constellation of perspectives,
histories, and forces. This book aims to fill that knowledge vacuum. Geared
towards architects, landscape architects, and urban planners, this book
combines spatial sensibilities with local cultural, social, and environmental
realities and provides a broad understanding of a unique island undergoing
intense transformation while drawing attention to its historical and current
challenges and emerging opportunities.
Distinctly, each individual story is anchored to a common thread and interest
in architecture, landscape architecture, and urbanism. Such discourse may
serve to prepare designers at large as they take on projects in a rapidly
developing Arctic.

Urban Proposals in Indian Cities

Nishant Lall

With their various constraints and unique cultural traits Asian Cities offer a
multitude of approaches and potential engagements in the urban terrain.
It includes 9 projects and collaborations by NilaA Architecture and Urban
Design, a design studio in New Delhi from 2010-2019. The projects range
from small scale approaches in dense inner city conditions to urban resilience
measures in urban riverfront revitalization. With simple diagrams, drawings
and volumetric studies, the book provides compilation of various attributes
of urban infill and strategy projects. Since many are civic funded projects
like local municipality, World bank funded urban scheme, the projects strive
to create a methodology of small scale change that aims to benefit a larger
urban fabric through connections, access, pause and play.
The book includes pedestrianisation scheme for Karol Bagh and Paharganj,
a unique cultural precinct in Delhi and the completed urban initiative of a

071 · From The Mountain to the Sea
Architectural Excursions in the Lebanese Landscape

Ziad Jamaleddine, Makram el Kadi

RECENT RELEASES
The monograph follows the work of L.E.FT Architects, mirroring a
presentation of a selection of the office’s Lebanese projects.
In the 1960’s, Lebanon’s National Tourism Council promoted the slogan
“From the mountain to the sea” as an advertisement of the country’s
attractiveness and striking geographic characteristics. Soon, however, this
frictionless landscape faltered, fracturing under the pressures of a long
sectarian civil war, the subsequent period of reconstruction.
Through thirteen of L.E.FT Architect’s Lebanese projects, located across
an east-west isoline running from the mountain to the sea, the monograph
interrogates the heroic mythologies of Lebanon’s landscape, reading them
against experiential narratives from specific moments with an exploration of
the geographic-historical narratives that have shaped Lebanon’s urban/rural
divide and the socio-cultural and religious characteristics of its
varied environments.

The Making of Making (Architecture)

Josep Miàs

This catalogue shows the exhibition “The making of making (architecture)”

by MIAS architects, exhibited at the Design Museum of Barcelona.
The exhibition analyses the design processes of MIAS studio, founded by
Josep Miàs in 2000 and proposes a route for the design process through
seven concepts: Between lines, Everything could happen, Oniric spaces,
Assemblage, Architecture to take away, X-RAYS and Ripped Surfaces.
These concepts appeal to the most basic actions of the creative and
productive process of study.
“Deeply honed and exquisitely crafted, this prolific demonstration is
a study in the making of making architecture, through its earliest and
slightest emergence as marks on a plane, to its flights in space as a drawing
without paper, to its rigorous rehearsal as an investigation of assembly and
composition” –Bob Sheil
With contributions by Peter Cook, Izaskun Chinchilla, Bob Sheil, Josep Miàs and
Marina Povedano.

The Designed Spaces of John Friedman Alice Kimm Architects

Joseph Giovannini, David Ulin, Eui-Sung Yi, John Friedman, Alice Kimm

RECENT RELEASES
This book showcases the work of John Friedman Alice Kimm Architects
( JFAK), a Los Angeles-based architecture practice recognized for its
creation of iconic, experiential environments that are reflective of culture and
context and expressive of inclusivity and identity.
Founded by John Friedman and Alice Kimm, JFAK is an American
architecture firm in Los Angeles, California, USA that serves clients
ranging from small nightclub operators and homeowners to developers,
universities, and cities. JFAK’s distinct formal landscapes are the result of an
inquisitive design process that mines the possibilities and complexities of our
contemporary, heterogeneous society.
As such, the firm’s wide-ranging body of work rejects adherence to diagram,
at once represents and redefines the City of Los Angeles, and through its
integration of technology and narrative captures a global zeitgeist.

074 · Out of the Ordinary
The Work of John Ronan Architects

John Ronan

This publication on the work of John Ronan Architects explores the firm’s
spatial-material approach to architecture and the underlying themes of its
typologically diverse output.
Over the preceding two decades it has been demonstrated that with enough
technology (and money) anything is possible. What does an architect do
when anything is possible?
In this architectural age of arbitrary shape-making, devoid of context or
meaning, Out of the Ordinary proposes an architecture of innovation rising
from ordinary concerns, about relationships not form, which exposes new
spatial relationships with diagrammatic clarity in a process of distillation
what seeks to lay bare meaningful relationships between essential building
elements. It advocates for architecture which privileges space over form,
experience over image, and narrative over authorship.

period and with offices founded at the beginning of democracy, their
architecture draws a fine line between late rationalism and the
modern movement.
With the focus on the accurate integration with the landscape, the spatial
organization, the knowledge of the materials and the composition of sober
geometry. Without being within trends or fashions, his projects follow
a common, timeless, reasonably understandable and moderately abstract
compositional trajectory.
His work notebooks, which will be present in the book, are considered
authentic Storyboards of the construction. Architecture manuals and
compositional solutions. The book published by ACTAR deals with the
latest works by these Catalan architects grouped into four suggestive

2010-2020 TEN YEARS OODA

João Rapagão

OODA is a Portuguese architecture collective, now celebrating 10 years

of practice.
More than presenting and dissecting the work of the practice, this book is an
adventure in technical and artistic exchanges. It is divided into three parts;
the appraisal of the first ten years, hence the X mark – X– in the title of the
book and also predictions for the next ten; a presentation of case studies and
projects according to six criteria and knowledge approaches – Insertions,
Second Life, Intimacy, Iconographies, Landmarks and Genealogies; and the
Dissection of the ten years that have passed, hence the exclamation mark – !
– in the title of the book, along an explanation of the functional and business
structure.
Based in Porto with experience gained internationally in notable offices, such
as OMA-Rem Koolhaas and Zaha Hadid Architects, the collective aims to
expand internationally, namely New York, São Paulo and Shanghai.

077 · Supertight
Models for Living and Making Culture in Dense Urban

Graham Crist, John Doyle

RECENT RELEASES
Supertight is an exploration of high-density urban life and reducing the
footprint of cites through adaptations in design and behaviour.
The rapidly growing large cities of Asia are critical to understanding our
future footprint. Asian cities provide insights into new ways of being densely
urbanised. The by-product of this unprecedented metropolitan convergence
will be the emergence of new urbanisms and new architectures, new models
for living and making culture.
The Supertight refers to the small, intense, robust and hyper-condensed
spaces that emerge as a by-product of extreme levels of urban density.
Tightness is a series of social, economic and cultural practices that have
developed in cities as a response to the rapid growth and consolidation of
cities. To be tight is to be small and constrained, but also to be open to the
economies and social intimacy of being close. Ultimately this project aims to
unpack and convey both the delight and difficulty that emerges through the
close occupation of large cities.

The renowned group of architects, educators, theorists, critics, and curators
assembled in this volume provide critical insights into the future of
architectural pedagogy, utilizing the thesis and design research projects of
the RISD Architecture class of 2020 as exemplars of the transformations
currently taking place in the field.
This volume considers the forms that architectural activism and advocacy
take in a moment when architects are critically reexamining the conventions
of their practice and the question of which constituencies they serve.

The Introduction of Modernism in India

Pankaj Vir Gupta, Christine Mueller, Cyrus Samii

RECENT RELEASES
Golconde is an astonishing architectural accomplishment. With technical
finesse and extraordinary craft, it offers a living testament to the original
modernist credo - architecture as the manifest union of technology,
aesthetics, and social reform.
This book mirrors the exquisite meters of ennobling everyday routines in
a modest setting. Exemplifies without bombast, a blending of the material
with the spiritual, the inner environment with the outer, the local with the
universal –with a gentle dignity and caring assurance. This book relates
the story of its making, and in the process points to attitudes and ways of
working which can guide the architect today. It is written and illustrated to
beautifully convey the craftsman-like intensity necessary to achieve stillness
and vibrancy in our environments.
It offers an alternative way of understanding modernism in India heretofore
dominated by the heroic monuments of post-independence architecture.

A Suburban Archipelago

Lina Malfona

This book tells the story of the making of a community, which occurred
hand-in-hand with the building of an archipelago of residences in the
countryside north of Rome.
From 2010 onwards, Lina Malfona together with Petrini Architects and
thanks to the support of the structural engineer Tommaso Malfona has been
designing and building this archipelago of villas in the countryside north of
Rome, which is also where their home-studio is located. This experimental
residence has become a point of reference for the design of an innovative
housing typology, an ‘ultra-residential’ villa which reaffirm the value of the
countryside within a technological and digital society.
Lina Malfona together with Fabio and Simone Petrini designed and built
this archipelago of ‘ultra-residential’ villas, a place to experience private as
well as public life.

and its myriad of multi-specie agencies.
The book is driven by a primary vocation: that of defying both the
Promethean flatness of the Platonic chora and the baroque fluctuations
of the Aristotelian topos by fiercely opposing their 20th century
common architectural condition: that of being measurable, that of being
sistematizable, that of being homogeneous, that of being modern.
Limit-Space capitalizes on the Roman territorial notion of limes.
Its spatial nature impacts on the conception of the floor as an architectural
element: it reformulates its continuous and discrete attributes by formal
and performative differentiation, recovering some of the morphological
traces characteristic of pre-modern architecture while marking a definitive
departure from the architectural gestures associated with the 20th century.

Data in the Irish Landscape

Sven Anderson, Alan Butler, David Capener, Donal Lally,

Clare Lyster, Fiona McDermott

The book investigates how data production and consumption territorialize

the physical landscape filtered through Ireland’s role in global
communications and, as told by the Irish Pavilion at the 2021 Venice
Architecture Biennale, features an installation that focuses on the materiality
of data infrastructure in space.
As our everyday lives become increasingly entangled with data technologies,
the book addresses the utopian fantasy that surrounds the Cloud, as
transcending physical presence or resourcing. By bringing the physical
infrastructure around data, and its impact on the environment under the
spotlight, it hopes to reframe how we understand data production and
highlight the myth that information technologies are hidden and without
major material manifestations on the landscape.
The book aims to raise awareness around the hardware of the global internet
and Cloud services, which is interwoven with the Irish landscape over
recent decades.

RECENT RELEASES
Being the Mountain examines the relationship between architecture and
the ground it occupies, revisiting key moments in architectural history to
uncover new potentials in this fundamental interaction.
This richly illustrated collection of essays revists significant moments in
architectural history that cast new light on the techniques and legacies
of modernism, especially in settings like Mexico and California, where
architects such as Ricardo Legorreta and John Lautner incorporated
dramatic natural topography in their agendas. Additional essays investigate
the role of the ground in the thought of Kenneth Frampton in the 1980s
and Luis Moreno Mansilla in the 1990s, as well as point to important
parallels between premodern land practices, twentieth-century art, and
today’s architecture. Together, these episodes call into question our received
assumptions and present new possibilities for the connection between a
building and its site.

Eduardo Gutiérrez, Jordi Fernández, Ricardo Devesa,

ON-A Laboratorio de Arquitectura

This book compiles ON-A work philosophy: a constant search for innovative
ad hoc solutions for each project, using the most updated technologies
and design research.
It exposes and collects the innovations developed through 15 years of work
at ON-A, through lengthy conversations between its founders and directors
(Eduardo Gutiérrez and Jordi Fernández) and the editor. This is not a usual
monograph, but rather an exploration of ideas from an innovation point of
view, according to four basic criteria: Design, Laboratory, Technology and
Emotion.
As a result of these four conversations, the book shows how to innovate in
architecture from different layers with only one concern: helping to reduce
the environmental impact of human intervention, improving citizens’ quality
of life and seeking the emotional interactions between the inhabitants and
their environment.

A Survey of the Possible City

David Leventhal, Lee Polisano, PLP Architecture

PLP Architecture presents ten recent projects as case studies to examine the
emergence of a new typological fluidity and as markers to survey the cultural
landscape of the past decade.
The last decade has seen an accelerated evolution of typologies. Today’s cities
are marked by a growing digital presence and the emergence of a global
sharing economy; shared spaces have increased our social and sustainable
focus, drastically altered our understanding of ownership and responsibility,
and redefined our experience of public and private domains.
Through this multi-layered infrastructure and pluralistic dissection, Another
Kind breaks down the high walls of architecture to highlight how we have
evolved and to speculate on what we can learn for the years that lie ahead.

2021
Canonical Work and Other Visible Things Meant to be Viewed

Paul Preissner

RECENT RELEASES
Kind of Boring looks at the origin of architectural ideas behind a work and
the theoretical and practical consequences resulting from an architecture that
prioritizes class politics through experimentation with formal practice.
The book proposes an alternative to contemporary architecture through a
kind of work which embraces normalcy, and queer deviations from such,
making a kind of architecture which explores basic form, anonymous history,
and the effects of indifference and inattention to make the normal weird.
It also presents the source material for the ideas behind the projects, the
projects themselves, and the essays about the work together in order to better
understand the interest and developing idea behind an architecture which
resists genre categorization, appreciates sloppiness in a field committed to
precision, and makes room for intuition and less formal precedent.

Li Tavor.

at Centre Pompidou
Josep Miàs

“As a kid who wanted to be an architect you could either make clay shapes,
drag pieces of driftwood into vague boxes - or put together Meccano cages.
I followed the last option and surely so did Josep Miàs”. –Peter Cook
Tracing through the pieces being published, you sense that Josep Mias is
essentially a man who takes strips and edges and develops them into meshes,
and then maybe combs, and then maybe honeycombs with a conspicuously
boyish delight in making the sketch, the linear diagram, the scale model and
the built building.
Underlying the apparently fearless is a sense of what can fly, swing, lurch,
lean or rest: in other words the composite that makes something possible to
be as it is in space.
MiAS Architects is an internationally recognized Architecture and Urbanism Studio, founded
by Josep Miàs in 2000, known for both its innovative experimental projects and its practice
combining sustainable technology, innovative manufacturing and cutting edge
construction practices.

089 · The Threefold Logic of
Advanced Architecture
Conformative, Distributive and Expansive Protocols for an
Informational Practice: 1990-2020

Manuel Gausa, Jordi Vivaldi

RECENT RELEASES
During the last 30 years, Advanced Architecture has consolidated an
interactive and informational logic that differs from that of Modernity and
Postmodernity.
The book positions three different ethos by critically approaching the
architectural side of a cultural mutation that has been affecting the
Western experimental areas of knowledge and practice since the end of
the last century. A transformative process constituted by a constellation
of transdisciplinary manifestations, accelerations, turns, shortcuts
and clusterizations that by no means can be read under one single
epistemological umbrella.
In this sense, rather than approaching the practice of architecture focusing
on its disciplinary inner specificity, this book approaches the research of
experimental architecture focusing on its extra-disciplinary entanglements.

090 · Disruptive Urbanism, Glocal Urbanity

J. ACEbillo Josep Antoni Acebillo

This book is the first in a trilogy that proposes a new model of Glocal
Urbanity that contributes to replace the degraded urban situation created
from the post-Fordist transition to current globalization.
From 52 propositions it proposes to understand Glocal urbanity as a new
modernity derived from the Axial Age. It proposes to understand the city,
also as a socio-technological process. Integrate concepts such as Complexity,
Urban Metabolism and Second Order Cybernetics into our disciplinary
corpus. Urbanistically translate the new Glocal Transregionalism that
emerges in step with the progressive dissolution of the Westphalian Nation-
State, and definitely to promote a more Disruptive urbanism formed by
tangible values and intangible virtues that is capable of overcoming the
demagogic-populist currents that today besiege us.
Josep Acebillo has combined professional activity with teaching. For more than three decades,
he has technically led the urban transformation of Barcelona. He has been visiting professor at
Yale, Harvard, NUS-Singapore, Kazan State University, Roma-3, CAUP-Tongji.

091 · Ideología Construída
Cinco mil años de arquitecturas del poder

Fernando Grasa

RECENT RELEASES
Within the Mediterranean construction tradition, sacred architecture has
always played a very prominent role, giving rise to the most numerous and
best preserved historical buildings prior to the 18th century that
have survived.
Throughout 5,000 years the visual plot has been shown as the systematic
alphabet that Mediterranean cultures have used to write multiple
architectural accounts of a sacred and ceremonial nature.
We will begin this memory - a true travel notebook - by presenting what
the Christian temples of discipline have taught us. Then we travel to Egypt,
Rome and finally to Malta and Gozo. The systematicity and similarities in
the crystallization of the ideological discourse were incredible and we invite
the reader to verify those teachings.
To facilitate this, the text includes more than 360 sketches and 300 images of more than 200
buildings belonging to 17 countries.

092 · Ishinomaki Laboratory
An Experiment in DIY and Design

Keiji Ashizawa

Perhaps it is Ashizawa’s forward-thinking and pro-active Do-It-Yourself

mentality that lead to the idea and solution titled ‘Ishinomaki Laboratory’.
The independently owned and operated project was conceptualised in
Ashizawa’s surrounding community in Japan after the 2011 Tōhoku
earthquake and tsunami. The need for immediate furniture encouraged the
idea for affordable and simple designs that are conscious in form
and function.
With a permanent workshop located in Ishinomaki, the DIY concept started
off as a common utility space offered free of charge for locals to conduct
their own repair work, with materials provided by volunteers who are mostly
designers in Tokyo. The facility also lent its hand in restoring local stores.
Awarded the renowned Good Design Award in 2012, Ishinomaki Laboratory is a new
business model that puts the power back into the consumer and the community.

How do we make sense of the Earth at a moment in which it is presented

in crisis? Geostories is a manifesto on the environmental imagination that
renders sensible the issues of climate change and trough geographic fiction
invites readers to relate to the complexity of Earth systems in their vast
scales of time and space.
The book is organized into three sections-terrarium, aquarium, planetarium,
each of which revisits such devices of wonder tha assemble publics around
representations of the Earth. The series of architectural projects becomes
a medium to synthesize different forms and scales of knowledge of
technological externalities, such as oil extraction, deep-sea mining, ocean
acidification, water shortage, air pollution, trash, space debris, and a host of
other social-ecological issues.
Through design research, Geostories brings together spatial history,
geographic representation, projective design, and material public assemblies
to speculate on ways of living with such legacy technologies on the planet.

Building Envelope
A Material History and Theory of Architectural Surfaces

Alejandro Zaera-Polo, Jeffrey S. Anderson

This book theorizes the building envelope as a literal embodiment of the

social, political, technological, and economic contingencies which have
become embedded within it over the last century.
While the façade is one of the most thoroughly theorized elements of
architecture, it is also one of the most questioned since the end of the 19th
century. Within the discipline of architecture, the traditional understanding
of the façade focuses primarily on semiotic and compositional operations
(such as proportional laws and linguistic codes). In contrast to this, our

BEST SELLERS
material and environmental theory of the envelope proposes that the
exponential development of building technologies since the mid-19th
century, have diminished the compositional and ornamental capacities of
the envelope in favor of material, quantitative, and technical performances.
Rather than producing a stylistic analysis of the façade, we investigate the
historical lineages of the performances, components, assembly types, and
material entanglements that constitute the contemporary building envelope.

The Seagram Building Construction Ecology

This book dissects the construction ecology, material geographies, and world-
systems of a most modern of modern architectures: the Seagram Building.
In doing so, it aims to describe how humans and nature interact with the
thin crust of the planet through architecture. In particular, the immense
material, energy and labor involved in building require a fresh interpretation
that better situates the ecological and social potential of design.
The enhancement of a particular building should be inextricable from the
enhancement of its world-system and construction ecology. A “beautiful”

building engendered through the vulgarity of uneven exchanges and
processes of underdevelopment is no longer a tenable conceit in such

Unless architects begin to describe buildings as terrestrial events and
artifacts, architects will—to our collective and professional peril—continue
to operate outside the key environmental dynamics and key political
processes of this century.

Vol 1 - Rethinking the Social in Architecture: Making Effects
Vol 2 - After Effects: Theories and Methodologies in Architectural Research

Architecture in Effect presents research on the co-constitution of architecture

and the social by addressing concrete problems and forwarding explorative
theories and methodologies.
The socially oriented perspective of Volume #1, Rethinking the Social, is
complemented by discussions of architectural and transdisciplinary theories
and methodologies in Volume #2, After Effects. Together these twin volumes
reflect on topics such as the utopian idea of a welfare state, the role of
intersubjective and non-human points of view, and the impact of historical
and current images on the making of realities.
The task of these books is to present a wide range of research topics that

100 · Mute Icons
& Other Dichotomies of the Real in Architecture

Marcelo Spina, Georgina Huljich / PATTERNS

No longer concerned with narrative excesses or with the “shock and awe”
of sensation making; the mute icon becomes intriguing in its deceptive
indifference towards context, perplexing in its unmitigated apathy towards
the body.
Object and building, absolute and unstable, anticipated and strange, manifest
and withdrawn, such is the dichotomy of mute icons. Dwelling in the
paradox between silence and sign and aiming to debunk a false dichotomy
between critical discourse, a pursuit of formal novelty and the attainment
of social ethics, “Mute Icons” reaffirms the cultural need and socio-political

BEST SELLERS
relevance of the architectural image, suggesting a much-needed resolution
to the present but incorrect antagonism between formal innovation, social
responsibility and economic austerity. Intersecting relevant historical
antecedents and polemic theoretical speculations with original design
concepts and provocative representations of P-A-T-T-E-R-N-S recent
work, the book aspires to stimulate authentic speculations on the real.

101 · Projective Ecologies
Ecology, Research, and Design in the Climate Age

Ecology is not simply a project of the natural sciences. Researchers, theorists,

social commentators, and designers have all used ecology as a broader idea or
metaphor for a set of conditions and relationships with political, economic,
and social implications.
Projective Ecologies takes stock of the diversity of contemporary ecological
research and theory—embracing Felix Guattari’s broader definition of
ecology as at once environmental, social, and existential—and speculates on
potential paths forward for design practices. Where are ecological thinking
and theory now? What do current trajectories of research suggest for
future practice?
How can advances in ecological research and modeling, in social theory,
and in digital visualization inform, with greater rigor, more robust design
thinking and practice? How does all of this point to potential paths forward
in an age of climate change and the need for adaptation and mitigation?

102 · Wood Urbanism
From the Molecular to the Territorial

From small-scale thermal properties to large-scale forestry, territorial, and

carbon cycle issues, wood has latent propensities not well addressed in the
current discourse on wood construction.
Through a range of design research formats –from material testing to in-
situ documentation to speculative urban projects– this book articulates and
illustrates future architectural and ecological potentials of wood. This book
brings into conversation scholars and practitioners who focus on wood from
a range of perspectives.

BEST SELLERS
The aim is to examine the implications and potentials of wood urbanism,
drawing particular focus to the complex relationships between land-
use, wood production, and wood construction. While relying on the
inherent intelligence and depth of multiple disciplines, a more totalizing
thermodynamic perspective on the role of wood in contemporary buildings,
urbanization, and territories is needed.

Dominique Coulon

This book explores the public dimension of architecture. In circumstances

that are often difficult, buildings add value to their locations,
transforming them.
This book takes a new look at the eclectic work of Dominique Coulon; his
production of public buildings illustrates the complexity of his architectural
approach. Dominique Coulon plays with context, light, and materiality to
produce public places that are detailed and welcoming. The areas he proposes
affect and accompany the body. His architecture is part of a dynamic
relationship, mobilising the senses to propose a specific universe, which
may be cheerful, or dramatic. These spaces serve the public dimension of his
architecture.
The Dominique Coulon & Associés agency was set up in 2008 in Strasbourg, in eastern
France; its guiding principle is to explore architecture in several different directions.

Thoughts and Observations Triggered by a Visit to Farnsworth House

Jacques Herzog, Pierre de Meuron

Treacherous Transparencies analyzes transparency as expressed in architecture

and art in an attempt to understand the intentions and objectives that
underlie its use by pertinent architects and artists.
The publication looks at a few important works by selected artists and
architects who work with transparency as an artistic strategy, which they
implement primarily by using glass and mirrors but other media as well.
The architects and artists listed together in this context form an unlikely
alliance: Bruno Taut, Ivan Leonidov, Marcel Duchamp, Mies van der
Rohe, Dan Graham, and Gerhard Richter. But they do have something in
common: their work marks salient way stations in the story of modernism up
to the present day.
Published in the context of the inaugural Mies Crown Hall Americas Prize
(MCHAP). Launch of the publication series by the inaugural MCHAP
award winners Jacques Herzog and Pierre de Meuron for their project 1111

WINNER
BIENNALE
2021

Neyran Turan

In light of the current political crisis around climate change, what can
architecture possibly contribute towards a new planetary imaginary of
our contemporary environment beyond environmentalism and
technological determinism?
Architecture as Measure is an elaboration on this question, and on the
disciplinary and cultural potentials of such a provocation. It positions climate
change as a cultural and political idea that requires a renewed architectural
environmental imagination.

BEST SELLERS
The book takes on this task by presenting a set of unconventional collisions
between architecture and climate change, which all extrapolate broader
concerns of the city, environment, and geography through the lens of specific
architectural questions such as form, representation and materiality. In that
way, the book is an invitation to boost architecture’s planetary effect by
collapsing the centers and the peripheries of the discipline, by colliding its
very outside with its very core interior.

107 · Vertical Urban Factory
Enviromental Management, Design and Planning

Nina Rappaport

This revised edition focuses on the spaces of production in cities—both the

modernist period and today—and the technologies that have contributed to
shifts in factory architecture, manufacturing, and urban design.
Vertical Urban Factory tracks the evolution of the vertical urban factory
from the first industrial revolution to the present and provides an analysis
of the political, social, and economic factors that have shaped today’s global
industrial landscape. Ultimately, it provokes new concepts for the future
of urban manufacturing, and the necessity of creating new paradigms for
sustainable, self-sufficient urban industry.
“Rappaport describes the innovations in architecture, engineering, and manufacturing
in the early 20th century that freed American factories from rural sites next to water-
powered mills so they could rise in cities. The new urban factories created jobs and fostered
density, at least until the 1960s, when industry began to move to urban edges, suburbs, and,
eventually, overseas. Rappaport also investigates how architects and urban designers, with
new technologies and the demand for greener industries, today can create urban production
facilities to revitalize cities.” –Architectural Record
Nina Rappaport is an architectural critic, curator, historian, and educator. For over sixteen years
she has been publications director at Yale School of Architecture.

108 · Operative Mapping
Maps as Design Tools

Roger Paez

Operative Mapping investigates the use of maps as a design tool, providing

insight with the potential to benefit education and practice in the design
disciplines.
The book’s fundamental aim is to offer a methodological contribution to the
design disciplines, both in conceptual and instrumental terms. When added
to the resources of contemporary design, operative mapping overcomes
the analytical and strictly instrumental approaches of maps, opening up
the possibility of working both pragmatically and critically based on an
understanding of pre-existing conditions.

BEST SELLERS
The approach is pragmatic, not only discussing the present but, above all,
generating a toolbox to help expand on the objectives, methodologies and
formats of design in the immediate future. The book joins together a review
of the theoretical body of work on mapping from the social sciences with
case studies from the past 30 years in architecture, planning and landscape
design in the interest of linking past practices with future ones.

A (Re)planned Obsolescence

Architecture and design currently play a minor role in the design and
construction of industrial building types, especially waste-to-energy facilities.
Through comparing the well-established waste-to-energy industries in Sweden
with less established engagements in the northeast of the United States,
opportunities and lessons are revealed.
This book presents a refreshed, design-led approach to waste-to-energy (WTE)
plants, reflecting work done at Harvard University Graduate School of Design
(GSD). Architecture and design currently play a minor role in the design and
construction of industrial building types, especially waste-to-energy facilities.
Architects have a role to play in integrating waste-to-energy plants physically
and programmatically within their urban or suburban contexts, as well as
potentially lessening the generally negative perception of energy recovery plants.

Poli House.
Introduced by an essay about the vague contradiction between intentionality
and chance, necessity and accident, reason and futility, authorship and
anonymity, the book presents a selection of images that inform Pezo von
Ellrichshausen’s cross production between art, architecture and academia.
Each page contains a single picture and a brief caption describing it.

Beyond a comprehensive depiction of the individual works, the monograph
underlines transversal notions of inventory, format, scale, regulation and value
within the pictorial representation. In the fashion of a personal album, each

The Expanded City
Seoul Biennale of Architecture and Urbanism 2017

As the second book of the Seoul Biennale of Architecture and Urbanism

2017, it presents contemporary urbanism thoughts on nine imminent
commons, which engage collective ecological and technological resources
relevant to all cities and even extra-urban territories.
Recent years have seen greatly increased political opposition between urban
and rural areas, bordering on crisis. In order to avoid further aggravating this
urban/rural polarization, we need to cultivate a discourse on urbanism that
focuses on the interdependencies between cities and the greater ecologies.
The way we think about cities needs to expand significantly to incorporate
their effects on global natural cycles, how they metabolize resources from
rural areas, and their impact on both local and regional economies.

This book documents a unique experience of a journey by Alvaro Siza Vieira,

Vincent Mentzel and Kenneth Frampton to the early work of Siza in Porto.
It includes a conversation between Kenneth Frampton and Alvaro Siza and
photos by Vincent Mentzel.
Álvaro Siza’s ‘Tidal Swimming Pool’ has been highlighted by critics as a
significant mark in the architect’s career, from a time when he had still
not reached full international notoriety. The 60’s witnessed the design and
construction of this building, which was to be of service to the general
public, providing a better enjoyment of the sea and the sun at the beach of
Leça da Palmeira.
From a simple program for a saltwater tank, Álvaro Siza produced a set of
spaces that lead the bather from the coastal road to the rocks on the sea, on
a course that enhances the relationship between what is artificial and what is
natural. With an extensive presentation of design statements, drawings, and
photographs and an essay by Michel Toussaint.

architectural innovations that have enabled modern life in this territory of
climatic and cultural extremes. It is a region where the reality of daily life is
often stranger and more extraordinary than any fiction one could envision.

This unprecedented book documents the region through five themes:
settlements, architecture, mobility, monitoring, and resources. Many Norths
reveals the challenges and opportunities of building, mobility, and culture
in the dispersed communities of the Canadian North, and speculates the
emergence of a contemporary northern, or arctic, vernacular.

Yona Friedman

In 1958 Yona Friedman published his first manifesto on “mobile

architecture” and founded GEAM (Groupe d’Etude d’Architecture Mobile).
Yona Friedman was influential in the late 1950s and early 1960s, best known
for his theory of “mobile architecture. In a very visionary way he proposed
different strategies and actions geared to the adaptation of architectural
creation to modern user requirements for social and physical mobility.
In this initial manifesto, Friedman claims that architectural knowledge
cannot be the exclusive property of professionals and specialists, and suggests

The Radical Architecture of Little Magazines 196X to 197X

Beatriz Colomina

An explosion of little architectural magazines in the 1960s and 1970s

instigated a radical transformation in architectural culture, as the magazines
acted as a site of innovation and debate.
Clip/Stamp/Fold takes stock of seventy little magazines from this period.
The book brings together a remarkable range of documents and original
research which the project has produced during its continuous travels over
the last four years starting with the exhibition at the Storefront
in November 2006.
The book features transcripts from the “Small Talks” events in which editors
and designers were invited to discuss their magazines; a stocktaking of over
100 significant issues that tracks the changing density and progression of
the little magazine phenomenon; transcripts of more than forty interviews
with magazine editors and designers from all over the world; a selection of
magazine facsimiles; and a fold out poster that offers a mosaic image of more
than 1,200 covers examined during the research.

119 · Buildings and Almost Buildings FOUNDAT.

GRANT

Eric Bunge, Mimi Hoang, nArchitects

Buildings and Almost Buildings explores the work of nARCHITECTS as

a single project – an anti-monograph with a subtle manifesto about the
openended, incomplete, and ambiguous in architecture.
Is architecture inherently complete? Or is it a state of incompletion and
seeming inadequacy that incites us to imagine architecture as an armature
for an ever-changing daily life?
Structured around a variety of modes of representation specially prepared for
the book, it reveals the ways in which the celebrated New York office, led by
Eric Bunge and Mimi Hoang, addresses contemporary issues of a world in
flux. Across a range of buildings, public spaces, and ephemeral installations,
nARCHITECTS argues for the formal and social potential of an
architecture that remains somehow incomplete and ambiguously perceived.

120 · Unboxing New York

ODA New York

In a city like New York, dominated by regulations and defined by a strong

post-crisis development boom, the architect is bound by conventions and
prescribed parameters.
Code, market, and zoning are words as common in the architect’s vocabulary
as context, proportion and light. Consequently, the architect’s power has
been pushed away from the fundamental qualities of living, towards more
decoration. This book investigates these architecture topics to recover the
power to design with quality of life as the number one factor.
In a bind-up of five smaller books with a wide variety of short articles,
research pieces, and an analysis of key facets of residential projects by ODA,
Unboxing New York presents the realities of the profession and lays out an
accessible and engaging roadmap to working within a highly regulated large
metropolis like New York to create valuable additions to urban life.
Eran Chen is the founder and executive director of ODA New York, an
architecture firm that has designed more than 45 buildings in the city.

Megablock Urbanism
Jeffrey Johnson Cressica Brazier, Tat Lam

A wider conversation on the policies and collective experiences of large-scale

development that are shaping China’s urban future.
Superblocks are the basic unit of China’s urban development, but they are
also spatial instruments with social, cultural, environmental, and economic
implications, operating between the scales of architecture and the city. These
redefined ‘Megablocks’ then become laboratories for the consequences,
opportunities, and potential global proliferation of Chinese urban models,
reconsidered through the filters of ecology, economics, and ethics. In this
bilingual guide to Megablock Urbanisms, the Columbia GSAPP China Lab
aims to document and advance the China’s urban future.

122 · Geographies of Trash
Enviromental Management, Design and Planning

Rania Goshn, El Hadi Jazairy / Design Earth

In the Age of Environment, the scale waste management is geographic all

while often relegating such undesired matter to invisibility as matter out
of place.
Geographies of Trash reclaims the role of forms, technologies, economies and
logistics of the waste system in the production of new aesthetics and politics
of urbanism. Honored with a 2014 ACSA Faculty Design Award, the book
charts the geographies of trash in Michigan across scales to propose five
speculative projects that bring to visibility disciplinary controversies on the
relations of technology, space and politics.
The research-design methodology and book structure adopt a threefold
approach, 1) to conceptualize the spatial issues; 2) to chart relations of trash
and space in Michigan across different scales; 3) to speculate on alternative
strategies, rituals and imaginaries that reclaim trash as matter in place. By
making trash visible and formal, the project aspires to engage disciplinary
debates on waste systems in architectural urbanism.

123 · Responsive Environments
Defining our Technologically-mediated Relationship with Space

Allen Sayegh, Stefano Andreani, Harvard REAL Lab

The entanglement of physical contexts with digital environments is

constantly changing our relationship with the surrounding space and
creating new hybrid experiences.
These transformations pose complex design challenges and yet offer novel
opportunities for the understanding and development of human-centered
built environments. Drawing from a 5-year design research collaboration
between the REAL Lab at Harvard GSD and the University of Bergamo,
this book unfolds the experiential facets of our technologically-mediated
relationship with space in the fields of architecture, urbanism and art.
The book attempts to describe what makes an environment “responsive” in
the form of a design manifesto, introducing ten attributes or principles at
both methodological and experiential levels. Critically articulated from the
perspective of leading experts, scholars and professionals, the ideas explored
are unpacked through speculative urban visions and design concepts at
different timeframes, contexts and scales ranging from smart artifacts to
smart cities.

Black Ecologies
Manuel Gausa, Areti Markopoulou, Jordi Vivaldi

The magazine of the Institute for Advanced Architecture of Catalonia, a

collective container of knowledge and material stimulating, promoting and
developing research in the diverse areas of Advanced Architecture through a
multi-disciplinary approach.
In the face of a hyper-technified world, we need more technology. In the
face of an inhuman world, we need more otherness. In front of a perturbed
world, we need more alienation. And above all, in front of an adulterated
world, we need more artifice. In this scenario, biological agents, ecological
agents, technological agents and cultural agents coproduce a reality that is no
longer built from promethean epics, relativist ironies or primitivist nostalgia,
but from accelerated hybrids; poly-plural constructs that hurtle towards a
post-capitalist world.
In the light of this narrative, Black Ecologies displays an architecture based
not only on processes and performances, but also on specific, literal and
hyperrealist protocols; they do not find shelter in abstraction, history or
language, but on the conformation of operative “assemblages”.

Extraterrestrial
Jeffrey S. Nesbit, Guy Trangoš

This issue explores the historical and contemporary consequence of our

planetary relationship with space. It interprets this duality through the
conceptual lens of “extraterrestrial,” which engages an entangled zone of
expanding practices. in geography, landscape, and architecture, stretching
Earth to space, and conversely, space to Earth.
It questions the means through which space is forged as a condition extra to
our own terra. Complicit within this imagination resides a deep political and
economic logic that serves to territorialize outer space as an exception to,
and extension of, Earth. These critical processes are revealed as not extra at
all, but rather distinctly of terra.
Through a series of written, photographic, and representational
investigations, this edition builds on earlier studies of outer space from
science, technology and society, as well as from the design disciplines, history,
and critical geography. It reinforces the need for humanity’s changing
relationship with outer space to be recorded, critiqued, and theorized from a
breadth of academic traditions and projected within design discourse.

Fallow
Michael Chieffalo, Julia Smachylo

The term fallow is borrowed from agriculture as a metaphor to critically

examine the role of strategic dormancy in cycles of valorization and
devalorization of the built and unbuilt environment.
Rather than a strict binary of fecund or barren, however, NG10 conceives of
fallowness as a rich and complex terrain to provoke a critical examination of
the sites, strategies, scales, and imaginaries of the unused, the devalued, and
the dormant, and explore modes of revalorization in all its forms: economic,
ecological, social, cultural. NG10 invites proposals from a multitude of
approaches, theoretical and conceptual frameworks, and diverse analytical
toolkits, to explore the limits of fallow as a category of analysis, while also
asking the question: what does design mean in such contexts? Ultimately,
it is hoped that this compilation will provide a foundation on which
designers—and other disciplines interested in spatial phenomena—can
build new lines of questioning regarding processes of urbanization, while
also demarcating points for cross-disciplinary study of the built and unbuilt
environments.

Posthuman
Mariano Gomez-Luque, Ghazal Jafari

New Geographies 09 investigates the urban landscapes shaping the

posthuman geographies of the early 21st century.
Posthuman signals a historical condition in which the coordinates of human
existence on the planet are altered by profound technological, ecological,
biopolitical, and spatial transformations.
Engendering new ways of being in the world, this condition challenges
long-established definitions of the ‘human’, and by extension, of the human
environment. Interpreting design as a geographical agent deeply involved in
the territorial engravings of contemporary urbanization.
The book investigates the urban landscapes shaping the posthuman
geographies of the early 21st century, fostering a wide-ranging debate about
both the potentialities and challenges for design to engage with the complex
spatialities, more-than-human ecologies, and diverse forms and habits of life
of an increasingly post-anthropocentric world.

128 · The Generic Sublime Organizational
Models for Global Architecture
Ciro Najl

The Generic Sublime recognizes the normative consistency across prevailing

developmental forms in the age of globalization and explores how a
contemporary notion of the sublime emerges out of the generic.
By abstracting the organizational protocols of skyscraper collectives,
high-rise housing agglomerations, mixed-use conglomerates, new central
districts, outstretched suburban enclaves, and instantaneous satellite cities,
architect and theorist Ciro Najle, together with students at the Harvard
University Graduate School of Design, develop new architectural models for
encompassing the unprecedented potential of the extra-extra-large.
Visionary in nature and awe-inspiring in scale, The Generic Sublime
anticipates groundbreaking territorial forms of architecture, complex in their
organization and singular in their presence.

Reclaiming the Littoral Gradient

Fadi Masoud

For centuries, cities have grown and expanded onto previously saturated
grounds; “reclaiming” land from estuaries, marshes, mangroves, and sea-beds.
While these artificial coastlines are sites of tremendous real-estate, civic, and
infrastructural investments, they are also the most vulnerable to the effects of
climate change.
Terra-Sorta-Firma documents the global extent of reclaimed coastal lands,
and provides a framework for comparison across varying geographies,
cultures, and histories. It renders visible the ubiquity and precarity of urban
coastal reclamation in an age of increased environmental and economic
indeterminacy. The five parts of the book question urbanism’s political,
economic, and physical binary relationship to wet and dry grounds in search
of a new understanding of land in a state of permanent flux. It challenges
designers, developers, policymaker, engineers, and urbanists to reconsider
the design and construction of land itself, and to re-imagine this most
fundamental of all infrastructures along a gradient of inundation.

130 · Pan-Arab Modernism 1968-2018
The History of Architectural Practice in The Middle East

Dalal Musaed Alsayer, Ricardo Camacho, Sara Saragoça Soares

Using Kuwait as a case study and Pan Arab Modernism as a lens, this book
comes to fill two voids in the literature on Middle Eastern architecture: one
is in practice and the other is in history.
The current practice of architecture in Kuwait, the Gulf and the larger
Middle East, is typically a-contextual and lacking any understanding of
the local context. The architectural history, on the other hand, ignores the
larger context of the Middle East and the influence of Pan Arabism is not
configured into many analyses. Thus, this project seeks to tackle both. By
providing a [re]contextualizing of the architectural history of Kuwait and
bringing forgotten protagonists back into the dialogue, a nuanced reading of
Pan Arab Modern architecture emerges.
This book aims to create a “knowledge generation” which can [re]define how
a local generation is being influence on the ground.

The largest metropolis in the US by square mileage –and the most diverse–
Houston, constantly processes vacant space into new developments, driven
only by the logic of transaction and opportunity.
The city’s lack of zoning means anything goes: a sprawl of random events
and programs constantly generating new junkspace and drosscape. lt’s a place
where urban developments are always negotiable, where storms and chemical
leaks constantly reconfigures any future planning.
Unlike the scripted corporate urbanism of the generic city, Houston’s glitchy
urban DNA leads to instant evolution and mutation: a Genetic City.
Houston Genetic City is really three books in one. The result of a year-
long University of Houston study, it examines the metropolis from three
interlinked viewpoints: developer city, energy city, unzoned city.
The book asks how Houston might evolve over the next fifty years beyond its
problems, into an open and resilient city of the future.

Seoul New Groundscapes

Manuel Gausa, Young Joon Kim

The concept of n-ground or multi-ground (Superground and Underground)

applied to Seoul recalls a new qualitative development which responds to the
possibility to superimpose a new dense floor in the old infrastructures.
Seoul new qualitative development does not intend to “continue” or
“recreate” the traditional city. Nor impose or positionate, transforming it,
built machines or objects (re-objectualizing the urban plot), but superimpose
a new dense floor (container and articulator at the same time) in the old
obsolete infrastructures; that becomes a new Re-Cyting Topos on, inside, in,
where and through which develop new/old programs, uses and activities of
life and relationship.
A new floor able to maintain a programmatic thickness and also become a
new type of relief, platform that reveals in length and height, horizontally
and vertically at the same time. Obviously the opportunity areas of the old
infrastructures are revealed as the ideal spaces to support these new floors,
real and virtual at the same time.

This effort offers the opportunity for a global reflection to rethink human

how we would like to live in the coming decades. We like to think that each
person’s life begins at home, which is the center of their universe and the
origin of their social interactions.
During the pandemic, we had been confined to our homes and they have
become microcities where we live, work and rest, connected to the world
through information networks. So, after this experience, how do we imagine
the future for our living environment?
The contest encourages participants to propose a design related to their

In the challenging context of accelerating climate dynamics, the core
discipline of architectural design is evolving and embracing new forms
of action. New York-based nonprofit Terreform ONE has established a
distinctive design tactic that investigates projects through the regenerative
use of natural materials, science, and the emergent field of socio-ecological
design. These future-based actions are not only grounded in social justice,
but are also far-reaching in their application of digital manufacturing and
maker culture.
Terreform ONE tackles urgent environmental and urban social concerns
through the integrated use of living materials and organisms and reveals
how future architecture and urban design practices can cultivate biological
processes and create resilient answers to tomorrow’s wicked problems.

for the equilibrium between endurance of the past essence of each place and
the freshness of the new life experiences generated by the architecture. The
book proposes to compile the best architectural IROJE’s works employing
the magnificence of black and white pictures, creative sketches, and
elementary plans and drawings to illustrate the permanent values of Seung
H-Sang.

136 · Mobile Theater
Architectural Counterculture on Stage

Fernando Quesada

Taking as a starting point a design for a mobile theater made at the

Architectural Association of London between 1970 and 1971 by Spanish
architect Javier Navarro de Zuvillaga (born 1942), this book traces the
architectural counterculture of that time and the relations with the
alternative performing arts.
This book intends to release this project, largely ignored by canonical
historiography, and to culturally place it in time and space: the agitated
city of London in 1971. After the convulsions of May 1968, architectural
counterculture rearmed on very different fronts, from the disciplinary rally
to the guerilla positions. This architectural design accounts for these events,
since it had a temporal development that goes beyond its mere conception
as an artifact. The long and frustrated process for construction —1969 to
1976— calls for a particular intra-history, which this books will tell. This book
provides a rigorous historiography and a highly speculative theoretical account.

137 · Empire, State & Building

Kiel Moe

Whence the accumulation of raw matter and energy of building in

New York City?
This book considers the material basis of building as a key impetus of both
urbanization and the energetics of urban life. The otherwise externalized
material geographies and thermodynamics of building’s material basis reveal
much about the dynamics and efficacy of how we build. It plots the material
history and geography for one plot of land in Manhattan—the parcel of land
under the Empire State Building—over the past two hundred years.
Through rich illustrations, it tracks all the building materials that have
passed through this parcel or remain in its geographic and ecological
dynamics: spatially (in terms of their geographic material footprints and
industrial processes) and quantitatively (in terms of embodied energy,
embodied carbon, and energy flow). In successive chapters, the book
articulates the empire and states that are inherent to building, but remain
unconsidered—abstract and unknown—by architects.

138 · Landscape as Territory FOUNDAT.

AWARD

Clara Olóriz Sanjuán

A cartographic book project that critically addresses the agency of architects

in the so-called ‘Urban Age,’ understanding the notion of ‘territory’ as a field
of design praxis through which interconnected landscapes are produced.
Territory, understood as a ‘political technology,’ has the capacity to involve
architects and designers into complex social, political, technical, legal,
strategic and economic processes that are both historical and geographical
engines of contemporary urbanization. Territorial praxis is interrogated in
a collection of threaded theory and design contributions where essays pose
key questions, unfolding arguments related to three sections: (1) territory, (2)
critical cartographies and (3) agency.
This material intends to raise awareness about the consequential
production of landscapes through territorial processes and urges a critical
re-appropriation of cartographic tools, accomplice in the production of
territories, and to question and expand the architect’s agency.

139 · Blueprint for a Hack
Leveraging Informal Building Practices

Susane Havelka, Vikram Bhatt, Dave Harlander

Over five days, some 60 residents from the northern Village of Kuujjuaq
collaborated with designers from southern Quebec to conceive and build
an outdoor community pavilion that activates Kuujjuaq’s primary outdoor
recreational area.
“Blueprint for a Hack” aims to re-imagine community spaces. Faced with
extreme housing shortages, physical isolation, and a challenging climate,
outdoor public spaces in northern Canadian communities remain largely
underdesigned and underused. Most housing and civic buildings emerge
from mainstream southern Canada and stand as physical markers of
southern values. The Royal Architectural Institute of Canada has begun
a discourse on design in northern Canadian communities, but the focus
continues to dwell on housing and civic buildings. A strong need exists to
open conversations about design and the public realm in northern villages,
which this project tries to address, creating a unique experience in which
northern and southern groups could apply a “hacking mindset” to re-imagine
community public space.

Michael Kubo, Amanda Reeser Lawrence, Michael Meredith, Hilary
Sample, Nader Tehrani, Enrique Walker, Ines Weizman, Meejin Yoon,

The book is based on the eponymous symposium, which brought together

scholars and practitioners of architecture in order to focus on one of the
most anxious disciplinary topics: influence.
Influence is not easily quantified. It is elusive, even when we casually admit to it
as we ogle images on the internet, or feel ourselves softening our resolve on an
important issue in light of a beautifully crafted piece of rhetoric; or as the mass-
media drone imperceptibly rewires some of our most fundamental desires.
When Under the Influence symposium took place at MIT in 2012, the
invitation to discuss issues of originality and copying in architecture were
still taboo. There have been a number of projects on the topic since, but
they have hardly exhausted the topics of copying and copyright, whose
importance increases with every act of scrolling or “liking” architectural
images on Instagram.

Housing in Mexico

Fernanda Canales

A case study that analyzes the relationship between ideas and houses, this
book focuses on 100 years of housing projects in Mexico.
The global phenomenon of massive urbanization that originated in
Latin America during the 20th century manifested itself in Mexico at an
unseen scale and has since been a testing ground for novel housing and
urban solutions. The geographic, social, and economic diversity of Mexico
constitute a prime example of the challenges inherent to meeting individual
needs in an increasingly crowded world.
This research is centered in drawings of 70 housing projects, creating a
common language highlighting different attempts at reinventing the house
not as an isolated battle but as part of a strategy for reimagining how
we want to live. This book showcases the pivotal voices that have shaped
major cities through housing projects and explores how policies and ideas
transform into built form, and how in turn buildings shape societies.

Re-thinking the post-Industrial City

Almudena Ribot, Enrique Espinosa, Diego García-Setién,

Begoña de Abajo, Gaizka Altuna

This book inquires into the future of post-industrial cities framing and
speculating on different industrial contexts: archipelagos (Eibar), fabrics
(Cobo Calleja), assemblies (Detroit).
Currently 55% of the world’s population lives in cities, predictably reaching
70% in 2050. Cities are organisms in continuous transformation: growth,
change, but also shrinking or collapse. Open City explores and speculates
from contemporaneity about the future of the post-industrial city, where
industrial archipelagoes (S), frames (XL) and obsolete or deprogrammed
singularities (M/L) represent critical contexts but also opportunities for a
new Open City.
Open Systems have been the research focus of CoLab since 2013. This book
collects some relevant and engagingly contemporary insights. It also includes
new unpublished interviews and articles with international participants
leading players in this field.

New Lessons from Architecture and Engineering

Hanif Kara, Andreas Georgoulias

The subject of this experimental course held at Harvard GSD, with the
students of Harvard and MIT, is to see the potential of interaction between
the two disciplines from these two schools.
Architects and engineers both claim to be designers, though how they define
design and the approaches they use to realize it, vary widely. However their
interaction has also created some of the world’s most memorable, enduring
and impressive buildings.
The unprecedented impact of digital technologies illuminates the complexity
and non-linearity of the process that these designers go through while
massively expanding both the ability to visualize and represent forms, and to
analyze their structural behavior. It has obviously changed both architecture
and engineering.
Hanif Kara of AKT, leads the class, insisting on the importance of each
professional field but trying to erode the borders and boundaries between them.

Design Practice Research in Architecture and Design at RMIT,
1986-2011: The Pink Book (Third Edition)

Leon van Schaik, Anna Johnson

Design Practice Research at RMIT University is a longstanding program of

research into what venturous designers actually do when they design.
It is probably the most enduring and sustained body of research of its kind:
empirical, evidence-based and surfacing evidence about design practice.
Two kinds of knowledge are created by the research. One concerns the
ways in which designers marshal their intelligence, especially their spatial
intelligence, to construct the mental space within which they practice design.
The other reveals how public behaviours are invented and used to support
design practice. This new knowledge combined is the contribution that this
research makes to the field of design practice research.

Differentiation Processes

Leon Van Schaik, SueAnne Ware, Colin Fudge, Geoffrey London

How do designers in research-driven practices differentiate themselves from

each other and form distinctive platforms for future practice?
The research presented in this second edition and carried out in Australia as
part of an Australian Research Council Discovery Program is of significance
for design practice, review, and our deeper understanding of the design of
space and spaces. In continuing the exploration of spatial intelligence,” this
research further develops our understanding of designers, how they work and
what they draw on through their lives that shapes their spatial thinking, and
their practice.
The research also provides broader insights into a more public understanding
and acknowledgement of our collective spatial intelligence. It shows
how this could be developed and enhanced to provide more spatial and
design literacy in our communities, and how these can engage with their
changing environments.

Expanding the Public Sphere through Public

Space Transformations in Latin American Spontaneous Settlements

Elisa Silva

The publication is not intended to serve only as a catalogue, guide, or manual

on how to produce public space in spontaneous settlements.
Rather, it goes beyond the aims of an index of best practices. It is intended,
instead, as an empirical base for a critical and theoretical engagement with
the problematic of development, social inclusion, public investment, (in)
formal settlement, civil society and the public sphere.
The publication achieves its final function at this third level, by providing a
compelling argument to expand the agency of architects and urban designers
and creatively find ways of justifying, financing, and building public spaces
in communities. Spaces that have a catalytic effectiveness in achieving
significant urban and social transformation.
This book was awarded by a Graham Foundation Grant and CAF Development Bank of Latin
America.
Elisa Silva is an architect with a master’s degree from Harvard University in 2002. She has

precision of photographic reproduction in the best-selected papers with a

At that time, the city of Berlin offered huge and visually appealing scars
that were urgent to photograph before speculation and modern architecture
engulfed them. It is very impressive to return now to the same places and see

Metropolitan Barcelona
Interventions and Conversations 2018-2022

AMB

The Barcelona Metropolitan Area (AMB) has a clear commitment in

compiling and presenting an overview of the projects it has carried out
during the last 35 years. Therefore, it has edited and published a collection of
books on completed public space works. This volume is the sixth one of the
collection, with works from 2018 to 2022.
In catalogue form, Public Space in Metropolitan Barcelona highlights the
interventions, classified under different headings, which have defined the
key values this period. The content is divided into six chapters: park space,
water space, covered space, renovated space, urban space and mobility space.
Overall, the volume displays 56 projects selected from the 265 actually built
during the period.
For each chapter, the journalist Anatxu Zabalbeascoa conducts an interview
with two experts that give their points of view from inside and outside the
metropolitan Administration. Two reflections from the architects in charge
of AMB urban planning and public space complete the volume.

257 · Translations from Drawing to Building
and Other Essays
Robin Evans

This book brings together eight of the most interesting and significant essays
by the unequalled historian Robin Evans. Written over a period of 20 years
from 1970 to 1990, the essays cover a wide range of architectural concerns:
domestic space, society’s involvement with building types, aspects of
geometry, modes of projection and drawing as a process for generating ideas.
‘What makes this book so captivating is not just the individual insights, but
also the intensity of Evans’s vision and the coherence of his approach.’ —
Joseph Rykwert, Harvard Design Magazine
The book includes ‘Mies van der Rohe’s Paradoxical Symmetries’ and
other essays first published in AA Files. Evans’s writings are supported by
an introduction by Mohsen Mostafavi, an article on the development of
the work by Robin Middleton, and an annotated bibliography by Richard
Difford.
This AA Documents publication is a re-edition of the 1997 essay collection, originally
published by AA Publications.

258 · Do Your Remember How Perfect
Everything Was?
The Work of Zoe Zenghelis

Hamed Khosravi et al

Do You Remember How Perfect Everything Was? traces the development of

Zenghelis’ artistic career through her paintings, projects and teaching. This
monograph assembles an extensive selection of Zenghelis’ work from the
early 1960s to 2020, alongside a unique collection of her paintings as a
member of OMA.
Zoe Zenghelis’ paintings create an unprecedented imaginary inspired by
metropolitan structures, landforms and abstract tectonics. Born in Athens in
1937, she began her career as a founding member of Office for Metropolitan
Architecture (OMA), where her contributions created new opportunities for
the group at the vanguard of architectural representation. Within, alongside
and beyond this collaboration, Zenghelis developed a body of work
exhibiting a playful and iconoclastic evocation of a very particular urban
form – one that is perhaps a surreal mix of the Aegean landscape of her
youth and metropolitan cities such as Paris, Berlin, New York or London.
She has lived and worked in the latter since 1955.

Designing for the Future at the Brooklyn Navy Yard
Edward P. Bass Visiting Distinguished Architecture Fellowship 15

Abby Hamlin, Dana Tang, Andrei Harwell

The Innovative Urban Workplace documents the Edward P. Bass

Distinguished Visiting Architecture Fellowship studio with Abby Hamlin,
founder of Hamlin Ventures, Dana Tang (’95), architect and partner
at Gluckman Tang Architects, and Andrei Harwell, senior critic in
architecture at Yale. The studio investigated the role of the Brooklyn Navy
Yard in New York City.
This publication aims to understand and meet the BNY’s mission and
design distinctive solutions that speak to the type of workplace needed in
an urban development today. Students in the studio identified potential
urban business models that address future relationships between places
of production and consumption. They looked at comparable waterfront
development projects and addressed issues including flood mitigation and
environmental remediation in their proposals.

334 · I, Like Many Things

I, Like Many Things mobilizes diverse narratives in a meditation on the

nooks and crannies of pandemic life starting at home. Contributions by
people from across many geographies and fields make inquiries about
alternative domesticities, virtualities, ecologies and collectivities that unfold
from everyday practices and suggest spatial agencies and actors within their
complexities.
The pandemic has taught us to unlearn a lot of things and to throw many
of the things we thought we knew back up in the air. Within the blur of
lockdowns, quarantines and remoteness we have become accustomed to
navigating uncanny, strange and ambiguous worlds. In the face of hardship we
have explored alternatives, some nascent, some forgotten and others novel.
Antipodal to the global emergency, individual and collective actions omposed
new scripts for relating to each other and to the places we live—acts that
constitute alterities to existing global orders while subsumed within them.

335 · Retrospecta #45

Retrospecta catalogs activity at the Yale School of Architecture. Each volume

is a snapshot of evolving architectural and graphic design trends. The book
demarcates events such as lectures, publication releases, and outstanding
circumstances that have uniquely impacted the academic, social, and political
environment at the school. Volume 45 covers the activities of the Yale School
of Architecture 2021-22 academic year.
Apart from simply cataloguing student work every year, Retrospecta also
invariably catalogues the rhythms of the School of Architecture and the
cultural zeitgeist that it is ensconced in. As Retrospecta 44 reflected on an
academic year marked by classes taught remotely, this year, Retrospecta 45
celebrates our hearty yet cautious return to in-person classes and aims to
capture what makes an architectural education at Yale—housed within the
walls of Rudolph Hall---unique.
This year, the book is split up into four discrete parts to allow students the
autonomy to reshuffle, reorganize, compare, and contrast parts of the book.

337 · What about Learning

Deborah Saunt

What about Learning? focuses on how architectural education and learning

at large faced ongoing disruptions and pressures under the COVID-19
pandemic and how we can reimagine learning environments.
This books focuses on “What about Learning?” a studio led by Deborah
Saunt of DSDHA, in London in terms of how architectural education
and learning at large faced ongoing disruptions and pressures under the
COVID-19 pandemic. Disembodied learning and a renewed sense of civic
participation, along with increasing awareness of how one’s relationship with
the environment is so critical to life at home, led the students to consider
a twofold architectural question: What is the best site for learning today?
What are the alternative forms of learning and exchange it could nurture?
A collective analysis of YSoA’s changing conditions, from its physical site
to its virtual presence and networks, and parallel research into alternative
learning models, such as University of the Underground and the London
School of Architecture, served as a basis for critique and the making, and
unmaking of curriculum in the students’ studio projects.

338 · Housing Redux
Alternatives for NYCs Housing Projects

Nneena Lynch, Bass Distinguished Visiting Professor,

James von Klemperer and Hana Kassan with Andrei Harwell

The book focuses on ways to reinvent public housing in New York City
through a series of design projects from Yale School of Architecture that
integrate form and provide social programs for the residents.
The students investigated the relationship between housing, equity, health,
and community. The students developed comprehensive frameworks for the
Washington Houses, three connected superblocks equivalent to seven New
York City blocks.
The concepts focused on restitching the project into the city street grid and
sought ways to add new built fabric that would allow the Modernist towers-
in-the park project to connect with public streets. Some found ways to keep
the superblock with interventions to support the community at different
scales and family structures. Urban farms and community facilities as well as
recreation spaces were included in order to have a range of interventions for
care, health, and equity that could reorient public housing.

After

Organized around a timeline that demonstrates the range of “presents” and

“afters” we find ourselves contemplating, this volume considers our terrestrial
occupations from a variety of real and imagined perspectives, from the
prehistoric to the future-imperfect.
It seems that—with increased urgency—we are more frequently finding
ourselves grasping for an “after,” especially as we face futures with
apprehension.
This volume of the Cornell Journal of Architecture looks at a vast range of the
“afters” we architects find ourselves confronting, and offers not just warnings,
but solutions; not just reminders, but projections. Because, while we humans
are obliged to stand squarely within the present, as architects we’re equally
obliged to cast our work into a hereafter that can be only loosely understood.
And then we can hope that, in the aftermath, our intentions bear some
resemblance to their consequences.

Peter Cook

The drawings of legendary architect, founder of Archigram, Sir Peter Cook

are known all over the world for their trippy and explorative nature. We are
presenting a book of drawings exhibited at Louisiana Museum of Modern
Art in Copenhagen spanning from the Archigram days to 2021.
The collage-like layering emanates care and curiosity, they welcome us with
their inviting color flickering and landscapes expanding in all directions.
Uninhibited formgiving, catapulting a vision of the possible into our culture
and minds. The repetitive dreaminess and deliberate intersections between a
colorful, blossoming natural world, and the hard edged built mass, invites us
into new territories of space waiting to be experienced.

378 · Arne Jacobsen (3 volumes)
Approach to his complete works 1926 – 1949

Félix Solaguren-Beascoa

Through intensive studies, the Spanish architect and author has published
all hitherto available projects and works by the architect Arne Jacobsen,
including some that have not been published so far.
The work is divided into three volumes. The 17 first two volumes show
Jacobsen’s works from resp. 1926-1949 and from 1950-1971, when Jacobsen
died. Volume three shows a selection of Arne Jacobsen’s drawings from
1958-65.
The work is inspired by Le Corbusier’s “Oeuvre complète” and constructed
in much the same way. Each volume begins with a review of Jacobsen’s
architectural development in the respective period - seen through Spanish eyes.
In total, the work is over 600 pages, whichcomplements the large book about
Arne Jacobsen also from Arkitektens Forlag.

401 · Builders Housewives and the
Construction of Modern Athens
Ioanna Theocharopoulou

Builders, Housewives and the Construction of Modern Athens reassesses the

explosive growth of postwar Athens through its most distinctive building type,
the polykatoikía, and its different connotations through the decades: from
a monotonous and ugly element of the city to the role it might play in the
urban sustainability.
Theocharopoulou re-evaluates the polykatoikía as a low-tech, easily
constructible innovation that stimulated the postwar urban economy,
triggering the city’s social mid-twentieth-century transformation. The
interiors of the polykatoikía apartments reflect a desire for modernity as
marketed to housewives through film and magazines. Regular builders became
unlikely allies in designing these polykatoikía interiors, enabling inhabitants
to exert agency over their daily lives and the shape of the postwar city.
Written in the light of Greece’s recent financial crisis, the book’s updated
Postscript considers the role polykatoikía might play in building an equitable
and sustainable twenty-first-century city.
