Actar Distribution

distributing books on architecture

Actar Publishers is committed to investigating the culture of the architectural, urbanism and landscape disciplines through innovative design, theory, criticism and pedagogy. Actar is focused on the works and research of established and emerging practitioners, professors, and thinkers such as Charles Waldheim, Neil Brenner, Kiel Moe, Abalos+Sentkiewicz, Alejandro Zaera-Polo, AKTII, Farshid Moussavi, Lateral Office, Pezo von Ellrichshausen, ODA, nArchitects, LAN, Rania Ghosn & El Hadi Jazairy, Daniel Ibàñez, Mimi Zeiger, among others.

Actar also participates in publishing the periodicals Bracket, New Geographies, and Kerb, documenting issues overlooked yet central to our cultural milieu. These publications have evolved out of the new disciplinary territory at the intersection of architecture, landscape, environment, and digital culture.

Since 2015, Actar’s new digital platform urbanNext has shaped and expanded architecture and design practices to rethink cities.

Through urbanNext, Actar is producing new tools for its global dissemination with new impulses, new proposals, and new goals to expand architecture publishing. As an example of this very successful symbiosis between printed and digital contents, we have partnered with the First Seoul Biennale of Architecture and Urbanism 2017 “Imminent Commons,” which has resulted in the publication of four books as well as a vast amount of videos, essays and projects at www.urbanNext.net.

In addition to its own publications, Actar Distribution, “Actar D” represents these premier architecture publishers to the book trade in the Americas: Applied Research + Design, Birkhäuser, Detail Books, DOM Publishers, and ORO Editions. Actar D also co-publishes and distributes books internationally from eVolo and from renowned schools of architecture including Harvard University Graduate School of Design; Yale School of Architecture; Columbia Graduate School of Architecture Planning and Preservation; University of Virginia School of Architecture; and Cornell University.

New Geographies #10: Fallow Different authors 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, New Geographies #10 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.

Ultimately, it is hoped that this compilation will provide a foundation on which designers can build new lines of questioning regarding processes of urbanization that will illuminate new speculative horizons for the design disciplines, while also demarcating points for cross-disciplinary study of the built and unbuilt environments.

Operative Mapping The Use of Maps as a Design Tool 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.

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.

Layered Landscapes Lofoten

Understanding of Complexity, Otherness and Change

Magdalena Haggärde, Gisle Løkken This book discusses approaches towards landscapes under pressure and transformation, and the importance of unprejudiced and experimental investigations to reveal its natural and cultural complexity.

It aims to challenge internalized concepts about how landscapes are considered and investigated, to open for alternative research, and legitimize subjective, singular and experimental approaches as valid and appreciated as a foundation for an informed process. These approaches take into consideration both the landscape and the practices taking place in the landscape, that are consistently full of individual and collective stories and experiences—the complexity created in both time and space, which influences our societies.

Under the concepts of complexity, imbrication, vulnerability, fieldwork, flexibility and reorientation ideas are developed, all based in the contemporary and historic layers of the dramatic and contested landscapes of the Lofoten Islands in Northern Norway.

Echos

University of Cincinnati School of Architecture and Interior Design

Mara Marcu, Mitchell McInturf The publication captures the work done at the University of Cincinnati School of Architecture and Interior Design while showcasing student work, faculty research, co-op stories, study abroad programs, and snapshots from the many events happening at our school.

Echos is a platform for simultaneous conversations with shared ethos at UC SAID. Various constellations begin to surface and map our diverse milieu of academic and social interactions that revolve around the following five main themes: anxiety, praxis, trope, chreod, and utopia. Introduced by a series of analytical diagrams which are paired up with essays by lead figures in the discipline, the themes expand on the issues of theoretical anxiety, architectural discourse, practice, typology, self-made analogies, ad hoc morphologies inherent to research, flux and reflux similar to the natural cycle of compression and release generated by our co-op program, and the fictitious, the ideal.

Mara Marcu is a designer and educator who understands space as having an ineffable power over people due to a primitive ‘built in’ intelligence.

GSD Platform #11: TBD Esther Mira Bang, Lane Raffaldini Rubin, Enrique Aureng Silva

Platform 11 is the 2017–2018 installment of Platform, the annual compendium documenting select student work, events, lectures, and exhibitions at the Harvard University Graduate School of Design.

The Harvard Graduate School of Design has always recognized the indispensable importance and values of architecture, landscape architecture, urban planning, and urban design, yet has transcended their individual aspirations through intellectual cross-fertilization and collaboration.

The material presented in this publication forms a small part of the incredible range and diversity of proposals and visions and is indicative of the School’s commitment, as a global leader in the field, to exploring and articulating transformative ideas through the power of design. It is as important for us to share and communicate the outcome of our research and design investigations as it is to show the fertile circumstances and conditions for the making of these projects.

A Toolbox for Exuma, The Bahamas Environmental Management, Design and Planning Mohsen Mostafavi, Gareth Doherty, Robert Daurio 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.

Buildings and Almost Buildings 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?.

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. 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.

This book won a Graham Foundation Grant.

LA Forum Reader Rob Berry, Victor Jones, Michael Sweeney, Mimi Zeiger, Chava Danielson

The LA Forum Reader brings together three decades of discursive writings and publications on architecture, urbanism, and Los Angeles culled from the archives of the Los Angeles Forum for Architecture and Urban Design.

Today, Los Angeles is a major architectural and urban player, but for decades the city was dismissed suburban and centerless. In republishing three decades of material on architecture and design in Los Angeles, reclaims and reconsiders the city’s architectural and discursive histories. It establishes, or reestablishes, a textual context for critical experimentation and urban investigation.

Published under thematic sections: Experiments, Detours, Hunches, and Santa Anas, with interludes dedicated to Art and Architecture, Downtown, and the long-running LA Forum Newsletter, the collected essays and interviews track an uneven and lesser-known history of experimental architecture, postmodern geographies, and alternative urbanism in L.A. as told by the city’s key designers and thinkers.

Repair

Australian Pavilion, 16th International Architecture Exhibition, La Biennale di Venezia 2018

Mauro Baracco, Louise Wright Responding to the theme “freespace”, Repair at the Australian Pavilion, curated by Baracco+Wright Architects in collaboration with Linda Tegg, aims to expand the point of view from the object of architecture, to the way it operates in its context, advocating a role that catalyses or actively engages with the repair of the places it is a part of.

Repair as an approach to architectural thinking is set to become a critical strategy of architectural culture. It is particularly relevant to Australian architects who work in one of the most diverse and ecologically sensitive landscapes in the world. Uniquely, our cities are interspersed and bordered by remnant vegetation and often connected to large natural systems as well as built over the traditional cultural landscapes of our First Nations peoples.

They are also scenes of developing ecosystems at which humans are at the centre of.

Mauro Baracco and Louise Wright are the directors of Baracco+Wright Architects founded in 2004 in Melbourne, Australia. Mauro is also an Associate Professor at RMIT University in the School of Architecture and Design, Melbourne, Australia.

RCR Dream and Nature Catalonia in Venice Pati Núñez, Estel Ortega, Rafael Aranda, Carmen Pigem, Ramon Vilalta

This book compiles the RCR Arquitectes own unique cosmogony: a vision of humans, of nature and life in general that transcends mere architecture.

Nature and history is the physical place that has been chosen to develop a space by RCR Arquitectes to conceive and experiment and to rethink man’s relationship with the world. This physical space is located in the La Vila, in the Bianya Valley (Catalonia), surrounded by woods, water, farmland, country houses, etc. It’s a creative, experimental project, and one that is constantly evolving. Technological advances and innovation are applied on an experiential basis in this landscape. New realities are generated, like the humanitacle, a project about the synthesis of man and the built habitat in relation to the surroundings, nature and technology, and la dona i l’home núvol (cloud woman and cloud man), creative beings par excellence and creators of reality. Book introduces this utopia under construction.

Ramon Vilalta, Rafael Aranda and Carme Pigem are the 2017 winners of The Pritzker Architecture Prize.

This book examines how reading, writing and criticism can address the urgent issues faced by architecture as it is practiced, taught and studied today.

The publication is drawn from an international public symposium organized in the spring of 2017 by the Department of Architecture at the University of Hong Kong.

From Crisis to Crisis reflects Hong Kong’s ongoing transformation from a gateway between China and the world, to a regional hub opening up a new milieu for the cultural, economic, and intellectual resources of Asia. The HKU Department of Architecture is part of this ongoing transformation, attracting thinkers from Asia, North America, Australia and Europe to engage in critical, relevant dialogues. The publication reflects this diversity and is characterized by its flexibility, contingency, vitality, and openendedness.

America Recovered Chad Ress, Jordan H. Carver, Miriam Paeslack America Recovered reveals the point where abstract political processes manifest themselves in the physical world, thus providing an alternate means of experiencing the contemporary American landscape. Collectively, the images and essays show what aspects of our everyday lives are being assigned value in the promise of a recovered America.

The book collects forty images that mark one of the only efforts to document the breadth of projects funded by the 2009 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. Unlike the New Deal and other programs designed for employment and infrastructural development, the Recovery Act was passed without any funds dedicated for photographic documentation. The publication of America Recovered at this moment allows for a critical reassessment of the Act and its lasting impact on the American landscape.

The two essays by architectural writer Jordan H. Carver and photography historian Miriam Paeslack situate Ress’s photographs within broader discourses of urbanism, infrastructure, and politics.

Re-Visiting Metropolitan Barcelona Public Space 2013-2017 Projects and Urban Design Section, AMB / Poch Comunicación This volume, the fifth in the collection Metropolitan Spaces, is published with the intention of marking a turning point as it broadens its sights and moves away from the concept of catalogue.

Its objective, beyond incorporating a historical reflection of the vital role that the AMB has played in the design, the construction of public space, and the transformation and structuring of the metropolitan territory, is to blaze new paths for the future.

In order to do so, the volume offers three types of concepts: data, texts and projects. The data explains the context and offers the reader an objective idea of the territory. Then, the texts and their authors help to explain the complexity of the territory, its past and its future potential. Visiting public space, the way of understanding it and acting in it contributed by guest practices, is complemented by re-visiting the work carried out in the last 30 years, contributed by the team of the AMB.

Wood Urbanism From the Molecular to the Territorial Daniel Ibañez, Jane Hutton, Kiel Moe 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 –from the working forest to the mid-rise building to the cell itself. 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.

Daniel Ibáñez and Kiel Moe are faculty at Harvard University Graduate School of Design (GSD).

Architecture in Effect #1 Rethinking the Social in Architecture: Making Effects Sten Gromark, Jennifer Mack, Roemer van Toorn Architecture in Effect present research on the co-constitution of architecture and the social by addressing concrete problems and forwarding explorative theories and methodologies.

While it takes its point of departure from within the specific context that is Sweden, it includes contributions from authors based in the Nordic context, in the United Kingdom, Europe and the United States. A central premise of the collected research is that the built environment and societal norms are co-constitutive and that architecture as a discipline and as a professional practice plays a fundamental role in this relationship.

Contemporary political and environmental conditions place specific demands on society and on the everyday life of individuals. There persists, as such, an obligation for actors within the discipline of architecture to contribute to a rethinking of the situated knowledges within architecture and interdisciplinary studies.

Architecture in Effect #2

After Effects: Theories and Methodologies in Architectural Research

Hélène Frichot, with Gunnar Sandin and Bettina Schwalm Architecture in Effect is a substantial collection of essays emerging from the Swedish research environment of the same name.

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 combine historical, material, and critical research approaches that respond to our current crises and challenges. Ultimately, this enables new modes of knowledge production within architecture to be advanced in its relation to societal transformation.

The two books are set together in a slip case with the ISBN: 978-1-940291-99-4

Bracket 4 [Takes Action] Neeraj Bhatia, Mason White Bracket [Takes Action] provokes spatial practice’s potential to incite and respond to action today. Over 28 essays and 15 projects investigate the role of design to catalyze a public, as well as forums for that public to act upon.

The rise of several divisive leaders within contemporary politics, has once again brought action to the foreground. As a new generation makes their voices heard, they are also grappling to find effective platforms for action through design.

The notion of action simultaneously evokes a discussion on what we are acting for and value. This is particularly important to consider at a moment when the authoritative systems –governments and corporations– appear more divergent to the voices on the ground. At the same time, within an increasingly pluralistic society, what we collectively value is increasingly unclear, which presents a primary challenge on action.

Neeraj Bhatia is Assistant Professor at the California College of the Arts; Mason White is Associate Professor Architecture at the University of Toronto.

Andrea Branzi. The Project in the Age of Relativity From Radical Territory to Neo-Primitive Metropolis.

Andrea Branzi’s Theoretical Urbanism

Andrea Branzi, Elisa C. Cattaneo Starting from the Radical research to contemporary design, the book collects Andrea Branzi’s work about the relationship city-design.

Starting from the Andrea Branzi’s reflection on the relationship civilitydesign, from the Radical’s research on mass-production civilization to the “infinite territories”, the book proposes new territories able to interpret and anticipate the new dynamics of society.

In particular, if the first chapters review the historical/critical works of Andrea Branzi and of Radical Movement, the last opens a new parenthesis of research, right now never expressed: the issues ignored by Modernity, like life, death, destiny and the sacred: themes which underline the new drama and the fracture between tragedy and normality, between consumerism and death, between theology and technology, between the silence of reason and the voice of an irrational reality.

Possible Mediums Kelly Bair, Kristy Balliet, Adam Fure, Kyle Miller The Possible Mediums book will present a diverse collection of texts, drawings, and images from invited contributors. Five chapters – Histories, Figures, Objects, Parts, and Projections – group together contributors with related interests and frame the book’s content in relation to contemporary topics of interest.

This structure reflects an approach to understanding and organizing contemporary architectural discourse, which is approached with neither cynicism nor divisiveness. Instead, architecture’s potential is framed as simply and optimistically “possible,” while providing secondary categories that allow for more nuanced discourses to emerge. This book is not a systematic theory, not a manifesto, not a banal survey. It is a teeming caldron of potential, containing the seeds of architectures and knowledge to come.

“Not only does the exhibition showcase inventive design research, it also plays host to student workshops, discussions and catered events. Providing a survey of the state of the art on the American scene, the organizers hope to elicit frank conversations concerning nascent speculative discourses. By this measure Possible Mediums is a rousing success.”-Architecture Review

POSSIBLE MEDIUMS presents the work of a diverse group of contemporary architects working through speculative design mediums.

Unconcious City Conversations with Wiel Arets John Bezold Unconscious City: Conversations with Wiel Arets navigates and questions the future of the modern metropolis, and how largely invisible, unconscious forces, increasingly lead by interconnected technologies – as artificial intelligence – shape and influence the world’s cities, and the ways they’re experienced by global citizens.

No one tells people to move to cities; people do so on their own. In 1965 Jean-Luc Godard’s film Alphaville, showed to the world that the new human being would–one day soon–live in a new, nomadic condition. That day has arrived; tomorrow, the situation will be amplified to unknown heights. This book speculates upon what may soon happen to the world’s metropolises, and how the human condition might change, as a result.

Today, we navigate by flying between continents; each continent contains a treasure trove of unique neighborhoods-cities. We should no longer speak about cities of the past, and instead discuss the world becoming one cosmopolis: The Unconscious City.

Between East and West: A Gulf Hamed Bukhamseen, Ali Karimi Between East and West: A Gulf looks towards the contested hydrography of the Arabian/Persian Gulf and proposes a new masterplan for the region.

In an area of physical, religious, and political division, the publication tells the story of the Gulf ’s islands and the possibilities they hold for a joint territorial project.

Hundreds of islands dot the waters between the Arabian and Persian shores.

An afterthought in the political maneuverings of their respective coasts, tell an alternative narrative to the one which drives conceptions of the region.

They represent a possibility greater than spaces of political contestation and hesitant demarcation. These islands are the sites of identity in formation, places of experimentation and architectural invention. Their historical roles were as varied as places of leisure, spirituality, planning, war, exile, and health.

The book was an accompaniment to the third Kuwaiti participation at the 15th International Architecture Exhibition – La Biennale di Venezia 2016 with a pavilion that shares the same title.

Twisted: Lafayette 148 New York Factory in China Mehrdad Hadighi, Marc Neveu, Tsz Yan Ng A collected volume of essays using the Lafayette 148 New York factory in Shantou, China as a foil to discuss issues of textile manufacturing, global/ local building practices, concrete construction in relation to labor, and evolving nature to factory typology.

The book presents the building as an artifact of architecture, with detailed documentation of images and drawings. The book also presents essays that offer a series of distinct but interrelated responses to the many questions that arise when building a garment factory facility in contemporary China.

Issues addressed range from the architectural import of the building typology, to the ecological footprint of a factory, to social and architectural concerns regarding labor as well as construction practices, to the ethics and aesthetics of factory building.

Is it ultimately possible to address the social inequalities produced by global garment manufacturing through design?

Made Up: Design’s Fictions Tim Durfee, Mimi Zeiger At a time when “fake news” is part of our daily cultural lexicon, Made Up: Design’s Fictions explores lies, fantasies, and other un-real scenarios as tools of design.

Through essays, interviews, and narratives by Bruce Sterling, Fiona Raby, Sam Jacob and other significant voices in the field, this volume questions the initial discourses around “design fiction”—a broad category of critical design that includes overlapping interests in science fiction, world building, speculation, and futuring. Made Up: Design’s Fictions advances contemporary analysis and enactment of narrative and speculation as an important part of practice today.

Geostories Another Architecture for the Environment Rania Ghosn, El Hadi Jazairy Geostories is a manifesto on the environmental imagination presented in architectural projects that engage the planetary scale with a commitment to drawing as medium. In 12 geographic fictions, the book invites critical and speculative engagements of humanity’s relations to Earth and technology.

How do we make sense of the Earth at a moment in which it is presented in crisis? To live in an epoch that is shaped by extensive environmental transformations is to be confronted with risks and uncertainties at a planetary scale. Paradoxically, we remain little mobilized, in part because of our failures to comprehend the reach of a story that is both difficult to tell and hear.

Geostories responds to the environmental crisis not only as a crisis of the physical environment but also as a crisis of the cultural environment.

This book won a Graham Foundation Grant.

Naive Intention Pezo von Ellrichshausen This title is a resulting work of the Mies Crown Hall Americas Prize (MCHAP) emerge, given to the firm Pezo von Ellrichshausen for their 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 drawing, painting, photograph, model or building, evokes the mental world behind Maruricio Pezo and Sofia von Ellrichshausen’s production. This volume could be read both as a collection of ideas, one after another, or as the same one that persists over time.

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.

General Theory of Urbanization 1867 Ildefons Cerdà First translation into English on the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the publication of the General Theory of Urbanization by Ildefons Cerdà, an essential work on urban development.

In 1867 Ildefons Cerdà published his “Teoria general de la urbanització.”

In this text, the “science of building cities”, understood as a phenomenon, became a new discipline with a broad economic, social and cultural impact on the life of the people of the city. Coinciding with 150 years since its publication, its first translation into English is being presented along with the publishing online urbanization.org with the statistics transformed into interactive graphics and open data, with the aim of expanding the knowledge of Cerdà’s work and encouraging debate on the process of “urbanization” in the future.

Yamuna River Project Iñaki Alday, Pankaj Vir Gupta This publication presents the result of more than three consecutive years of focused research initiatives and designs from The University of Virginia School of Architecture towards the revitalization of New Delhi’s water bodies.

In collaboration with the Delhi Jal Board, The University of Virginia’s Yamuna River Project is an inter-disciplinary research program, proposing to revitalize the ecology of the Yamuna River in New Delhi, and creating vital urban links with the Yamuna river, as it flows through India’s capital city.

Through the research, methodologies, and designs contained within this publication, this project aims to serve as a catalyst for the urgent recovery of the Yamuna River and its tributaries, building a publicly accessible body of information and expertise resulting in visions of what an alternative future would be. Only by addressing human equality and the complexity of Delhi’s urban phenomenon can the social and ecological crisis manifested through these neglected water bodies be solved.

XPositions: Pavilion Dialogues Yichen Lu, Kenneth Namkung In May 2015, Studio Link-Arc completed its most prominent work to date, the China Pavilion for Expo Milano 2015. The project was China’s first freestanding Expo Pavilion outside of its own borders.

The design and construction of the project raised a number of issues relevant to current architectural discourse: temporality and the legacy of Expos; nationality and representation; instant place-making and iconicity; and the relationship between parametric design and craft.

XPositions is not conceived as a monograph that focuses on one project.

Instead, it carefully examines the larger ideas woven into the design of the China Pavilion and explores their implications for design and global culture.

In addition to presenting the story of the project –from conception through construction and occupancy– the book addresses the larger design forces at play via discussions with key figures in the architecture community: Stefano Boeri, Xiangning Li, and Daniel Libeskind.

Kerb 24 [Territory] Louella Exton, Kim Morte, Hayden Matthys, Millicent Gunner, Emma Groot Kerb Journal is a 24 year running, produced by the Landscape Architecture program of RMIT University. 2016 sees Kerb24 focus on the thematic of ‘Territory’ and its place in the discourse of Landscape Architecture and the broader design industry.

Territories start off as nonphysical, often simple ideas, emerging in the physical and becoming a perpetual mixture of the two. Often formed to acquire resources, yet inherently a resource. Land is seized for economic gain, borders are traversed through changes to regulations, and new territories of control are born from land reclamation where previously none existed. Imposing order and control over landscapes in varying states of flux.

Conflict often leads to territories shifting or being taken by force. Territory can be a landscape of blurred and invisible boundaries, overlapping in time and space. All these assertions lead us to questions. To create a territory, must one first understand it? What becomes possible when we start to question what territory is?

Open(ing): Space-Time-Information & Advanced Architecture Underlying Architectonic Logics in the Turn of the Millennium

Manuel Gausa In defense of a new architectonic logic, Manuel Gausa explores a pioneer decade of decisive experiences in the turn of the millennium.

The last few decades have confirmed the evidence of a spectacular change of scale –and thinking– in our spaces of exchange and sociability –in our own habitats– linked with the exponential capacity to process and interact complex and digital parameters of information.

Transversal, relational and multi-scalar. Focusing on the mapping of the contemporary project and city in the turn of the millennium, this book explores the capacity of links between dynamic systems and irregular structures. Manuel Gausa defends a new underlying architectonic logic (spatialtemporal in conception) that has emerged within current culture of the informational age. In accordance with a shared terrain of inquiry, which represent a series of decisive experiences from the past years, this new logic can be considered an advanced “logic of complexity”.

Architecture and Dystopia Dario Donetti, Marco De Michelis, Oliver Elser, Dominique Rouillard, Marco Biraghi, Marie Theres Stauffer, Maddalena Scimemi, Simon Sadler, Massimiliano Savorra, Anthony Vidler

A homage to the 1973 publication Architecture and Utopia by Manfredo Tafuri –echoed in the title– this book is devoted to the radical experiences of the 1960s and to their consequences for the most recent developments in contemporary architecture.

How to define a unified “dystopian” method of design, i.e. a common ground for an architecture that, by its very nature, seems to resist systematization?

Are the most recognizable architectural expressions of this theoretical framework –characterized by brazen displays of technology and structures of overwhelming scale– merely isolated cases, albeit of particular iconic power?

Or do they belong to a wider landscape of antirational architectural projects?

And to what extent are these disturbing expressions premised on the utopian tradition or, better yet, the conceptual model of “negative thought”?

The goal of this book is to respond to such questions, thus initiating an open dialogue about the legitimacy of this critical category.

Shared Structures, Private Spaces 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 geographic, social, and economic diversity of Mexico constitute a prime example of the challenges inherent to meeting individual needs in an increasingly crowded world. The drawings and essays comprise new ways of looking at theories and buildings in order to redefine the connection between housing and the city.

This research is centered in drawings of 70 housing projects, creating a common language highlighting different attempts at reinventing the house not as isolated battles 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.

Fernanda Canales holds a PhD degree cum laude in Architecture (ETSAM, Madrid), her Bachelor degree from the Universidad Iberoamericana, México City and her MA at the ETSAB (Barcelona).

Good Vibrations

Clichy Batignolles: Lot E8 & Parc 1

Gausa+Raveau actarchitecture, Avenier-Cornejo Architectes The Clichy-Batignolles stands as a new urban landscape liaison element, an essential urban portal along the peripheric territorial arc, just by the historic city.

The site thus becomes an important urban platform, a place of exchange in the relational-spaces web organization of Paris. It shall serve as connection point for the various territorial, urban, environmental, social and cultural scales.

The aim of the book comes from the relations that are given between both buildings done on the sustainable Clichy-Batignolles neighborhood in Paris built by Gausa-Raveau actarchitecture & Avenier-Cornejo Architectes. The concept and material display of the book arises because of the visual quakes that present the materiality of the two towers.

Finally, the idea of vibration is given between the buildings and the environment.

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.

Roland Snooks is a senior lecturer in the School of Architecture and Design at RMIT.

Imminent Commons: Live from Seoul

Seoul Biennale of Architecture and Urbanism 2017

Hyungmin Pai, Hyewon Lee, Yerin Kang, Jie-Eun Hwang, Soo-in Yang et al.

The fourth book from the Seoul Biennale 2017 explores the sites, exhibition installations, and diverse array of programs that were realized during the Seoul Biennale.

Imminent Commons: Live from Seoul is Centered on the Live Projects sections (Production City, Urban Foodshed, Walking the Commons) and the Public Programs, the book highlights Seoul’s complex urban fabric as a theatre on which the Seoul Biennale was played out. It is a book that focuses less on individual installations and more on the biennale as a specific set of places.

It shows how much the character of theses places is an integral part of the Biennale’s cosmopolitan, transnational gaze.

The book includes essays by Hyungmin Pai, Hyewon Lee, Yerin Kang and Jie-Eun Hwang, Soo-in Yang and Kyungjae Kim, Soik Jung, E-Roon Kang and Wonyoung So, Won-joon Choi, John Hong, Kyubg Yong Lim, Sunjae Kim, Nayeon Kim, Dongwoo Yim and Calvin Chua, OBRA Architects, with photographs by Kyung Sub Shin and Suyeon Yun.

Superhumanity

Post-Labor, Psychopathology, Plasticity Chin Jungkown, Common Accounts (Igor Bragado & Miles Gertler), Arisa Ema, Hong Sungook, Yuk Hui, Kim Jaehee, Catherine Malabou, Hannah Proctor, Erik Rietveld, Mark Wasiuta

Focused on post-labor, psychopathology, and plasticity of human mind and body, this book introduces insight, critiques, and propositions in the area of “self-design,” ranging from design and architecture to science, media, history, philosophy, and contemporary art.

The field of design has radically expanded. As a practice, design is no longer limited to the world of material objects, but rather extends from carefully crafted individual looks and online identities, to the surrounding galaxies of personal devices, new materials, interfaces, networks, systems, infrastructures, data, chemicals, organisms, and genetic codes.

Faced with the fourth industrial revolution, this book shed light on the necessity to recognize that manmade, artificial objects are continuously reshaping our daily lives, and thus to rethink the intimate and fundamental relationship between design and what it means to be human.

Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Seoul, Korea, MMCA, organized the Superhumanity Symposium in Korea, consisting of lectures and panel discussions by experts from diverse disciplines.

New Geographies #09: Posthuman Mariano Gomez-Luque, Ghazal Jafari NG09: Posthuman, surveys the urban environments shaping the more-thanhuman 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, NG09: Posthuman investigates the urban landscapes, fostering a debate about both the potentials and challenges for design to engage with the complex spatialities, more-than-human ecologies, and diverse forms and habits of life in a post-anthropocentric world.

With Contributions by Rosalind Williams, Erik Swyngedouw, Cary Wolfe, McKenzie Wark, Jason Moore, Benjamin Brat-ton, Luciana Parisi, Eyal Weizman, Shannon Mattern, Rosetta Elkin, Mimi Sheller, and Stephen Graham, among others.

Unfinished

Ideas, Images, and Projects from the Spanish Pavilion at the 15th Venice Architecture Biennale

Iñaqui Carnicero, Carlos Quintáns Eiras The book displays the work of seven photographers and fifty five projects of architecture, presenting the problem through the unfinished constructions strewn across different points of Spain´s geography, as well as five critic essays and eleven interviews with prestigious professors from the international academia.

The dictionary definition of “unfinished” presents the following synonyms: unadorned, crude, formless, imperfect, raw, rough, under construction, unfashioned, unperfected, unpolished, unrefined. All of these adjectives conjure in the imagination of designers a new type of architectural intervention that perceives the existing built environment as a constraint upon which we can leave an important but impermanent mark. In this way, architects become a link in the chain of a structure’s life. Through the concept of the “unfinished,” we may understand the desirability of a perpetual state of evolution of the architectures that define our societies. The architecture of the unfinished leaves open a door to the unexpected, and to ideas and interventions of the future .

MCM Milan Capital of the Modern Lorenzo Degli Esposti Modern architecture articulated itself in specific centers of propulsion, revision and critique during the 20th century. The case of Milan is exemplary: Terragni and Razionalismo, the reconstruction (Ponti, Rogers, Moretti, Viganò, etc.), the Tendenza of Rossi, product design, up to the current research. MCM traces this history from several contributors’ points of view.

MCM - Milan Capital of the Modern, is made up of texts and images from over 300 contributors from Europe and the US, across three generations, involved in the activities of the Padiglione Architettura in EXPO Belle Arti of Vittorio Sgarbi, a programme by the Regione Lombardia hosted in the Grattacielo Pirelli during the EXPO 2015.

The idea of MCM is that each capital of the Modern brings an original version of modernity in architecture: in the specific Milanese case, this kind of Modern is characterized by the simultaneous presence of abstract, systematic and syntactic features and an ontological conception of both buildings and architectural and urban voids.

AERIAL PICTURES OF BARCELONA

Barcelona Jon Tugores

This book is an idea of architects and friends Carles Llop and Vicente Guallart, who were seduced by the way Barcelona is read by Jon Tugores’ eyes.

For the first time, the city is shown from the sea side, acknowledging the close relation of the city and the topography that encloses it. It somehow actualizes the drawings that imagined Barcelona done by the ancient navigators.

The main reason for this book is to offer another point of view on the way Barcelona is read. A tribute to scale, territory, nature and architecture.

A complete vision of the evolution of a city that knows how to dialogue with mountains and the Mediterranean constraints. A magnificent example of well-understood urbanism that dealt with the Roman Empire all the way to the re-shaping of a car infested city during the post-Olympic era. Without falling into imported clichés from other continents. A city always under a constant re-thinking attitude.

Jon Tugores is an architect, university professor and airline pilot.

The Arsenal of Exclusion & Inclusion

BEST SELLER

Interboro Partners With contributions from over fifty architects, planners, geographers, historians, and journalists, The Arsenal offers a wide-ranging view of the forces that shape our cities.

Who gets to be where? The Arsenal of Exclusion & Inclusion examines some of the policies, practices, and physical artifacts that have been used by planners, policymakers, developers, real estate brokers, community activists, and other urban actors in the United States to draw, erase, or redraw the lines that divide. The Arsenal inventories these weapons of exclusion and inclusion, describes how they have been used, and speculates about how they might be deployed (or retired) for the sake of more open cities in which more people have access to more places. Some of the entries in The Arsenal are probably things you didn’t know had anything to do with cities at all, let alone this war for what Henri Lefebvre called the “right to the city.”

Interboro Partners is a New York City-based architecture, urban design, and urban planning office led

Many Norths Spatial Practice in a Polar Territory Lola Sheppard, Mason White

By employing research techniques and spatial analysis that describe building in Arctic regions, Many Norths explores how Arctic settlements have responded to climate and geography, as well as ever-increasing global pressures, to ask: What is next for the North?

Many Norths charts unique, often surreal spatial realities of Canada’s arctic regions, documenting the geospatial, infrastructural, techno-cultural, and 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.

This project won a Graham Foundation Grant.

Clinical An Architecture of Variation with Repetition María Hurtado de Mendoza Clinical means “relating to a clinic”, but also “based on observation of an individual”. It also means “analytical”.

This book is a clinical study of a trilogy of health-care centers built by estudio. entresitio in Madrid, Spain. A trilogy of three individuals, three case studies that share the same formal configuration and yet are perceived as different.

Books, as projects, have an initial stage of explosion in which many directions and possibilities are opened at once. Then comes a quieter stage, in which ideas are reorganized, distilled and rounded out. For this book, the detonator is drawing. A collection of analytical representations of the clinics are the foundation for an exploration of a number of questions in the project, in the search for their best translation. It is an iterative process in which words are a second step. They provide an additional layer of information, structure and even room for debate.

Imminent Commons: Urban Questions for the Near Future Alejandro Zaera-Polo, Hyungmin Pai

The first publication of the Seoul Biennale of Architecture and Urbanism 2017, proposes a framework where set basic commons – an evolving network of agencies, resources and technologies – as the critical issue in the move towards a sustainable and just urbanism.

The cities of the world stand at a crossroads. Amidst radical social, economic, and technological transformations, will the city become a driving force of creativity, diversity, and sustainability, or will it be a mechanism of inequality, despair, and environmental decay? At this critical moment, where do the stakes lie and what are the agents of change? From the time of its birth, the city has been held together by the commons.

Imminent Commons: The Expanded City Alejandro Zaera-Polo, Jeffrey S. Anderson 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.

Alejandro Zaera Polo is an architect and founder of London and New York-based AZPML. He is the former dean of the School of Architecture at Princeton University and a prolific theorist.

Imminent Commons: Commoning Cities presents questions and answers concerning the current state and near future of cities of the world through the lens of public initiatives, projects, and urban narratives. Cities are searching for new possibilities that will help them survive and thrive within new systems of municipal governance. The strategies of cities with regard to rapid urbanization, scarcity of public resources, and privatization of commons will be examined through the diverse spectrum of focused projects. It also discusses the present and future of cities as commons in the 21st century through examining various ways the cities use to deliberate, operate, imagine and execute their policies for the city.

GSD Platform #10: Live Feed Jon Lott, John May Platform 10: Live Feed is the latest installment of Platform, Harvard University Graduate School of Design’s annual compendium of select student work, events, lectures, and exhibitions.

Platform 10: Live Feed confronts a central paradox: the “live feeds” of our lives are exponentially more mediated than the analog forms of documentation they are so quickly replacing and erasing. This fact, in combination with the rapid manipulability endemic to all electronic media, now presents us, its users, with radically new conditions of knowledge and imagination.

Under these conditions, real-time platforms for meaningful self-expression and fictionalization are inextricably tied to the novel consequences—political, ethical, epistemological—of a world in which distortion, simulation, and manipulation are often indistinguishable from their opposite.

Architecture and Waste A (Re)planned Obsolescence Hanif Kara, Leire Asensio-Villoria, Andreas Georgoulias 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.

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.

Kiel Moe is Associate Professor of Architecture and Energy at Harvard University Graduate School of Design.

Third Coast Atlas: Prelude to a Plan Daniel Ibañez, Clare Lyster, Charles Waldheim, Mason White Third Coast Atlas: Prelude to a Plan describes the conditions for urbanization across the Great Lakes region.

Measuring over 10,000 miles, the Great Lakes coastline, known as the “third coast,” is longer than the Atlantic and Pacific coastlines of the United States combined. It is difficult to overstate the history and future of the region as both a contested and opportunistic site for urbanism. This publication comprises in-depth analysis of the landscapes, hydrology, infrastructure, urban form, and ecologies of the region, delivered through a series of analytical cartographies supported by scholarly and design research from internationally renowned scholars, photographers, and practitioners from the disciplines of architecture, landscape, geography, planning, and ecology.

“Third Coast Atlas is a weighty tome, the product of years of research on the Great Lakes region. Its four editors—all architects and urbanists—and numerous contributors explore the deep connections between the region’s geography, ecology, economy, infrastructure, and urbanism, all to produce a foundation for later planning efforts.” --Metropolis Magazine This publication was awarded with a grant from the Graham Foundation for Advanced Studies in the Fine Arts.

Public Catalyst Manuel Bailo Demonstrates the existence of public space catalysts, as well as the need for their presence for an expectant or indifferent place to be activated.

This work – which understands that the city, now and always, has had and must have public spaces of intensity – proposes urban catalysts as agents that are capable of activating a place that was previously indifferent.

The comparative work of historical and recent cases, developed by research and drawings, has allowed us to discover that the vivid public spaces of identity and reference have been formed due to the urban effect caused by these agents that we call “catalysts”. Manuel Bailo’s work includes a wide range of projects, ranging from urban scale to interiorism. It has been widely published and presented with awards.

The Berlage Affair Vedran Mimica The Berlage Affair is an anthology of critical essays, reviews, and interviews cataloguing 20+ years of work and insight from architectural educator, Vedran Mimica.

Kenneth Frampton once called Vedran Mimica, “the spiritual leader of the Berlage Institute.” The Berlage Affair is a book that investigates the educational legacy of that institution, and in the process, explores new ways to research and project new models of global urbanization.

What sets The Berlage Affair apart from other architectural literature is its very subject. Rarely do we learn about innovative or alternative educational models that have produced and imparted applicable, real world knowledge in the field of architecture. This knowledge was produced in an experimental environment as a result of exchange between leading and emerging Dutch, North American, Japanese, and European architects and their students from around the globe.

Passages

Transitional Spaces for the 21st-Century City

Mireille Apel-Muller Tunnels, footbridges, escalators, urban cable cars, pathways – passages are essential links, with the potential to generate distinctive urban environments.

Designing and building passages is a way to act quickly and to lay the foundations for larger scale transformations: international analyses and examples.

The product of a joint program with an international network of cities, universities, and experts from different disciplines, as well as the catalog of a touring exhibition, the book analyzes more than 150 completed passage projects and describes methods for action.

Eight articles by the exhibition curators punctuate the catalog and provide insights into passages in their historical, spatial, social, and sensory dimensions, as well as from the perspective of emerging mobilities and the desires of citydwellers.

Kerb 23 [Digital Landscapes] Georgia Aldous, Sophia Horomidis, Rebecca Pike, Robert Williamson Originating as a RMIT University pamphlet in 1989 for the purpose of discussing landscape architecture. The journal now boasts a diverse selection of contributors, focusing on contemporary landscape architecture themes.

Kerb seeks to set the agenda for designers and architects, establishing a platform for new ideas and contemporary design theory.

It is the identification and manipulation of matter that has the potential to inform, change, align, and drive a physical interaction and making with the world. Kerb 23 examines ways in which ‘Digital Landscape’ discourse can be applied to landscape architecture. Through exploring Simulation, Fabrication, Augmentation and emerging theories of ‘Digital Ecologies’ we can navigate new horizons of what is made ‘possible’ within and through the realm of digital landscapes in regard to unlocking, transforming, storing and distributing the way we might reveal, uncover, and generate alternative modes of translation and interaction.

Ellen Kooi Above Rotterdam

One Glass Tower by Wiel Arets & Nine Situations by Katrien Van den Brande

John Bezold Colliding modern architecture, theatrically informed photography, and surreal poetry and prose.

This carefully-crafted collaboration between artist Ellen Kooi, architect Wiel Arets, and artist Katrien Van den Brande documents five sets of highlystaged visual ‘scenarios’, and nine textual ‘situations’, of numerous imaginary guests, who simultaneously inhabit the B’ Tower–a high-rise in the center of Rotterdam.

Interspersed throughout Kooi’s sets of imagery are separately created scenes of poetry and prose, by artist Katrien Van den Brande, which alternate with Kooi’s narratives–all graphically woven together by a design from Mainstudio. This publication is a two-dimensional immersion into a parallel urban reality, that’s at once fantasy and fiction–yet remarkably familiar. building, public space and landscape.

Ellen Kooi is an internationally renowned artist based in Haarlem, the Netherlands.

The Total Designer

Authorship in the Architecture of the Postdigital Age

Lluís Ortega This book develops an alternative and inclusive approach -based on the hypothesis that the impact of digitalization on architectural culture is similar to the effects of the linguistic turn in philosophy- and steers clear of exclusive dichotomous approaches, without the foundational reconsideration of the discipline or its ontological conservation.

Most studies on the digital phenomenon carried out in the context of the discipline are focused on the more technical aspects, with expert discourses based on the standpoint of the optimization of existing processes.

Given the general tendency toward creating experts and encapsulating knowledge, this text is meant to be based on a transversal vision, which can help non-specialist readers to understand certain complex phenomena.

Lluís Ortega is Associate Professor at IIT Architecture Chicago and Visiting Professor at the Universidad Torcuato di Tella in Buenos Aires.

This publication won a Graham Foundation Grant.

Rosetta S. Elkin Tiny Taxonomy offers a visually engaging collection of images and texts drawn from a series of contemporary garden installations, which highlight the role of individual plants in landscape architecture.

Tiny Taxonomy showcases species that are in cultivation or in profusion, but rarely purposefully planted. A grouping of plants is categorized by common traits derived from an evolution towards feature miniaturization, generating another form of classification. Due to the diminutive size of their features, these plants are often over-looked and therefore tend to be under specified.

It seems that as the world around us gains complexity and intricacy, our biological world is tending towards monotony.

Tiny Taxonomy considers smallness a design opportunity, offering innumerable microcosmic considerations of the leaf form, flower structure, and physical habitat of individual plants.

(Un)Precedented Pyongyang Dongwoo Yim An urban research on how Pyongyang, the capital of North Korea, was reconstructed from the Korean War based on the idea of socialist urbanism and how those socialist urban spaces will transform when it adopts the new market-economy system.

After the three years of Korean War in the 1950s, Pyongyang was completely demolished. Although the current morphology may not be exactly same as the original master plan, many urban spaces and infrastructures remain as evidences of socialist urban planning. And interestingly enough, these are urban elements that have major conflict with the idea of market-oriented economy, and at the moment, the morphology of the city is already changing.

Then, the question is, will Pyongyang become one of post-socialist cities, having them as precedents to the city, or will it have its own development path that is unprecedented?

Dongwoo is a faculty member of Rhode Island School of Design. His research interest focuses on integral urbanism and architectural typologies that catalyze urban transformation in various urban scales.

The Social Imperative

Architecture and the City in China

H. Koon Wee This book aims to put the social agenda squarely back in the rapid development of the built environment in China. Beneath the veneer of a very successful China, a quiet revolution is taking place within the realms of architecture and the city.

This book contains multiple short critiques, reflections and manifestos, affording each contributing architect and intellectual the time and space to imagine new social paradigms in China. Emerging from a tumultuous history of high culture and complex territorial conditions, there is nothing straightforward about the social development of China. The complexity of the social practices developed by architects and shapers of the built environment can be explained in part by the last three decades of an intensified adoption of the market economy by the Communist Party of China, after an equally short three decades of closed-door communist control. There is no political meltdown like the democratization of the former Communist Bloc, but there is a constant managing of discontent and resistance across China.

Water Index Design Strategies for Drought, Flooding and Contamination Seth McDowell Water Index highlights critical design projects from around the world that radically engage the fragile issues of drought, flooding, and contamination, revealing opportunistic, adaptive design strategies in response to the mounting global crisis.

Water Index is a collective vision of the future that provides solutions for every continent and spans the disciplines of urban design, landscape and architecture.

The book works to create an enduring manual and manifesto for water development and design in the twenty-first century and to acknowledge crisis-initiated design as an important trajectory for architectural discourse.

McDowell’s interests in urban infrastructure, water, and advanced sustainable design and construction combine with his strong sense of materiality. His research and speculative design projects that examine a hybrid condition of architecture and infrastructure in an age of ecological awareness have received several awards and been published in a number of publications and exhibitions.

XXL-XS: New Directions on Ecological Design Mitchell Joachim, Michael Silver Architecture must not only be functionally green, but its formal, conceptual and physical properties also need to constitute a novel and integrated living material system, one that can flourish within the larger world around it.

XXL-XS represents the emerging discipline of ecological design by assembling a wide range of innovators with diverse interests. Geoengineering, synthetic biology, construction site co-robotics, low-energy fabrication, up-cycling waste, minimally invasive design, living materials, and molecular self-assembly are just a few of the important advances explored in the book. At one extreme are massive public works, at the other, micro to nano-sized interventions that can have equally profound impacts on our world. From terraforming to bio-manufacturing, a whole new generation of designers is proposing unique ways of confronting the difficult challenges ahead. Globalization demands a restructuring of the profession as we know it. This requires a new breed of generalists who can work across fields and engage research on multiple sites around the globe.

Treacherous Transparencies

Thoughts and Observations Triggered by a Visit to Farnsworth House

Jacques Herzog, Pierre de Meuron

REPRINTING, COMING SOON

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.

Jacques Herzog and Pierre de Meuron were awarded the Pritzker Architecture Prize in 2001 and the MCHAP 2009-2013 Award in 2014. Their projects include highly recognized public facilities, such as the National Stadium for the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing, China (2008), and the conversion of the Bankside power plant into Tate Modern in London, UK (2000) and its extension, The Tate Modern Project (2016).Co-published with Illinois Institute of Technology College of Architecture.

Making it Modern: The History of Modernism in Architecture and Design Aaron Betsky

This book traces the astonishing opening up of a brave new world of open empty space, the arrival of the beauty and terror of the machine into daily life, and the attempts to represent them in the construction of a modernist world.

At its root, modernism is that fundamental. It is a question of having something to represent that is of the moment. In the most radical interpretation, modernism always comes too late. The modern is that which is always new, which is to say, always changing and already old by the time it has appeared. Modernism is always a retrospective act, one of documenting or trying to catch what has already appeared –an attempt to fix life as it is being lived. Modernity is just the very fact that we as human beings are continually remaking the world around us through our actions, and are doing so consciously.

Aaron Betsky (born 1958) is a critic, curator, educator, lecturer, and writer on architecture and design, who since August 2006 has been the director of the Cincinnati Art Museum. From 1995-2001 Betsky was Curator of Architecture, Design and Digital Projects at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. He is the current dean of the Frank Lloyd Wright School of Architecture.

The Generic Sublime Ciro Najle 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.

The Function of Style REPRINTING, COMING SOON

Farshid Moussavi

During the 19th and most of the 20th century, discussions of style revolved around pure formalism or pure functionalism. Style, as the way of assembling forms, was trapped in producing consistency and sameness across architectural forms.

This publication is the third in a series at the GSD focused on researching a contemporary idea of style in architecture. The previous publication investigated the architecture of the latter part of the 20th century which defies the senselessness and anonymity of the early 20th century city. The aim was to establish whether the systems of differentiation identified earlier were exploring their style as formalism or whether they were based on a new idea of style that would work with form and function simultaneously as a way to use form to subvert function as set out for each type by early 20th century modernism. “...brings a welcome lucidity and a real sense of critical curiosity to how both architecture and the role of the architect are understood.” –Architectural Review.

Ciro Najle, Lluís Ortega This book is an Atlas of rural protocols of two parallel regions: the Argentine Pampas and the American Midwest, understanding both as coherent pieces of territorial-scale architecture, yet to be unleashed.

The Atlas is structured along eight systems of organization: transport and infrastructure, land subdivision, agricultural production, water management, storage and maintenance, human habitation, animal management, land management. Each of these systems possesses a number of organizational types, which become available through a manual of instructions for a Suprarural architectural environment.

As part of the Mies Crown Hall Americas Prize program recognizing the best built work in the Americas and launched in 2014, MCHAP is publishing a series of books that will include the inaugural “MCHAP Book”, as well as publications by the MCHAP and MCHAP.emerge winners.

The “MCHAP Book” will use the seven finalist projects to identify broad, thematic reflections on the American condition. In that context, “American” necessarily refers to the entirety of the continent, from Alaska to Tierra del Fuego.

Fabrizio Gallanti is a lecturer at McGill University and a founding member of the collective gruppo A12 (1993-2004) and the architectural research studio Fig-Projects (2003-present).

Co-published with Illinois Institute of Technology College of Architecture.

Bracket 3 [at Extremes] Lola Sheppard, Maya Przybylski Bracket 3 [at extremes] includes critical articles and unpublished design projects that investigate architecture, infrastructure and technology as they operate in conditions of imbalance, negotiate tipping points and test limit states.

We are conditioned, as designers of the built environment, towards the organization of people, programs and movement. Indeed the history of modern urbanism, architecture and building science has been predicated on an anti-entropic notion of programmatic and social order. But are there scenarios in which a state of extremity or imbalance is productive?

Bracket [at extremes] seeks to understand what new spatial orders emerge in this liminal space. How might it be leveraged as an opportunity for invention? What are the limits of wilderness and control, of the natural and artificial, the real and the virtual? What new landscapes, networks, and urban models might emerge in the wake of destabilized economic, social and environmental conditions?

Shannon Bassett (Re)stitch Tampa is a design research platform which includes essays and design proposals from the international design ideas competition (Re)stitch Tampa.

Discourse framed by the underlying themes of the competition, examines (re)designing the city with natural systems and envisioning a new design for the city’s civic realm through connective urban landscape hybridized with ecological infrastructure which (re)stitches the city back to its river.

This publication critically examines these issues through essays, in addition to showcasing selected competition entries, the results of (re)stitch Tampa. The discourse distills the design schemes and examines their possibilities as viable alternative urban models for development, which reconsider the relationship of landscape to the city and urban redevelopment.

Shannon Bassett is an architectural and urban designer. Her research, teaching, writing and practice operate at the intersection of architecture, urban design and ecological systems.

Beyond Patronage: Reconsidering Models of Practice Joyce Hwang, Martha Bohm, Gabrielle Printz This book explores contemporary architectural practices and design agendas that are being shaped or enabled by new forms of ‘patronage.’

Essays, projects, and interviews will examine emerging forms of sponsorship, new forms of connectivity –technological or social– that produce innovative modes of collaboration, and strategies for cultivating relationships that allow us to rethink typical hierarchies between those in power and those in service.

One could argue that the profession of architecture has traditionally been characterized by patronage. Throughout the twentieth century, private clients have enabled architects to develop and realize their most significant work.

Coming out of the Buffalo School of Architecture and Planning’s 2012 Martell Symposium, the book has three sections: “Architect as Initiator,” “Architect as Detective,” and “Architect as Advocate.” Each section is structured with an introductory essay followed by contributions from architects and then interviews with them. These include Hansy Better Barraza’s “Searching for an Authentic Production,” Juliette Spertus’s “Build It In: Making the Case for Garbage Collection in Urban Design,” Lola Sheppard’s “Navigating Territories of Engagement: Investigations in a Remote Territory.”-A Daily Dose of Architecture.

Total Latin American Architecture Libretto of Modern Reflections and Contemporary Works Ana de Brea A selected, fully open, and deep assemblage, that carries the explicit intent of outlining, conceptual and practical verifications, on critical views and specific projects, concerning the actual architecture in the Latin American territory.

The book intends to communicate a targeted objective, to circumscribe a segment, a series of observations and actions in architecture. However, it is a selected, fully open, and deep fragment, outlining conceptual and practical verifications on critical views and concrete projects, concerning the actual, extensive world of architecture in the Latin American territory, and in the first years of the new century.

It is a sequence of topical segments organized as an unsystematic series and through a number of different projects in each case: the single family house; searches on bigger scales; poetical structures; topics under consideration; a look over laboratories; terrain, landscape and topography; covering folk factors; and the volumetric reasoning and physical features. A selected and deep assemblage of the current architecture in the Latin American territory.

Time for Play: Why Architecture Should Take Happiness Seriously AZC - Atelier Zündel Cristea Over the last 15 years AZC’s architectural work has developed through a diverse range of experiences. This book, Time for Play, presents exhibition pavilions, temporary installations, and ideas competitions – a mix of built and un-built projects. “...Today’s situation promotes innovation, supports creativity and enriches projects, calling on our intelligence. We are forced to take a new look at practices and uses, to consider different ways of doing things, to think about the humanity of a place; and all this when we still find it so hard to understand community needs, and even more so to keep up with changing society.”

And this is the position taken by AZC architects. Faced with a changing world, they propose solutions that are novel in their shape, use, cost and temporality.

Territories of Disobedience Linna Choi, Tarik Oualalou Architects build in and for a system that is not only pathological, but toxic. It is ruining the only planet we have, and we are clearly at the end of what is still possible within this ecology.

The architecture presented in this book is a form of resistance – one which actively engages in the societies and territories it is inscribed in and which presents an antidote to the accelerating banalization of our everyday environments. The search for singularity is not a search for formal distinction or a fetishism of the architectural object, but instead the desire to inscribe oneself into a unique territory and moment in time.

This compendium of essays and projects presents a confrontation of radically dissimilar projects which underscores the exploration of architectural empowerment at the core of the office’s work. Four themes are presented in four volumes: Cultural Resistance, Occupying Earth, Public Prerogatives, and Territory and Transgressions.

Soupergreen!: Souped-Up Green Architecture Doug Jackson A collection of projects and essays that argue for a technologically expressive approach to green architecture.

Soupergreen! features projects that offer a long overdue critique of the current approach to “green” architecture and, in turn, demonstrate a more appropriate way for architects to address the challenges posed by the environmental crisis. In sharp contrast to contemporary examples of “green” or “sustainable” architecture—which primarily rely upon the invisible agency of unremarkable technologies and materials to reduce resource consumption—Soupergreen! demonstrates how green technology can not only perform from a measurable standpoint, but can also produce engaging experiences that profoundly alter, enhance, and transform the public’s understanding of the environment.

Includes a foreward by Sanford Kwinter.

Doug Jackson is architect and professor. His word focusses on theorizing about trasnformable architecture, desregulating architectural authorship, and spatializing environmental disturbances.

Landscape Tunings An Urban Park at the Danube Silvia Benedito, Alexander Häusler Landscape Tunings foregrounds design as mediator between the community and the riverbanks through its civic, ecologic and micro-climatic affordances. The book unpacks the design process (bottom-up) and the design strategies (tactical) of the “Danube Park / Danube-Loop” project in Ingolstadt an der Donau.

Flowing through 10 countries, the Danube is one of the most international rivers in the world. Regardless of its international scale, economic and ecologic relevance, the Danube acts as a civic anchor when permeating through urban fabrics. Initiated in 2013, the Danube Park / Danube-Loop project in Ingolstadt results from a three-year design study developed with the communities in the city aiming at increasing the civic potentials of the riverbanks. Rather than totalizing, the design results from specific spatial tunings. These interventions aim at intensifying the particularities of the river with its distinct environments, and at leveraging the potentials of the riverbanks as a “thick” space in the pressing commitments to ecological, economic and social wellbeing.

Geographies of Trash Rania Ghosn, El Hadi Jazairy Geographies of Trash reclaims the materiality and spatiality of municipal solid waste systems.

In the Age of Environment, the scale of 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.

Cerdà 150 Years of Modernity Fancesc Magrinyà, Fernando Marzá This book takes a historical look, starting with urban planning and architecture, at the main characteristics of the Cerdà Plan for Barcelona, in order to call attention to the continuing force of Cerdà’s ideas.

With the help of experts on Cerdà’s work it examines each of the most distinctive features of Cerdà’s work: the island as the city’s basic unit, the island’s interior spaces as sites of urban independence; the relationship between the building’s height and the width of street so as to ensure public health; the chamfered corners as a space where movements converge; and the integration of transportation and service networks into street design in order to allow streets to be maintained without interfering with the traffic flows – to cite just a few examples.

Carefully edited includes unpublished material and historic pictures.

Enric Jardí

Enric Jardí Twenty-two tips on typography (that some designers will never reveal)

This is a recipe book, a book that will tell you what works in typography and what you should do with letters.

If you are familiar with the world of design, have studied at a school, or collaborate with designers on a regular basis, you will know that many of the teachers you have had, and many of the professionals in this field, are against a system that would tell you “what you must and must not do,” like the system you hold in your hands. They will probably tell you that it is anti-pedagogical or conservative. They will say that in design you always have to try to break the rules, that the great designers are the ones who did just that. And they are right. But it is also true that typography is that important part of graphic design in which it is so difficult to define criteria. It is a specialty that everyone says they love and respect but then nobody, from what I know, is too sure about it.

This is a recipe book of twenty-two tips for creating the best typography and twenty-two things you should never do with lettering. Secrets which many designers will never reveal.

The Blindspot Initiative

Design Resistance and Alternative Modes of Practice

José Sanchez This book documents the professional work of twenty-one design practices that are expanding their respective fields and hybridizing traditional design outputs through the intersection of other disciplines.

By blurring the boundaries between fields, design innovation can become more aware of the systemic interdependencies that often live in our current disciplinary blind spots. From the critique of competitions, The Blindspot Initiative attempts to create an alternative loop between design and resources, one in which the propagation and documentation of new knowledge developed in design research can economically sustain its production, generating a positive feedback loop between innovation and knowledge propagation.

Texts by Jenny Wu, Jason Kelly Johnson, David Gerber, Mustafa El-Sayed, and Kate Davies, introduce the designers by offering alternative perspectives on the contributions of the field of robotics, software, film, product design and prototype thinking, to the practice of architecture.

José Sanchez is an Architect based in Los Angeles, California. His research ‘Gamescapes’, explores generative interfaces in the form of video games.

The Mexican Social Housing: Promises Revisited Louis I. Kahn Visiting Assistant Professorship

Tatiana Bilbao This book is a compilation of the projects developed at the Yale School of Architecture in an advance studio called, Diversification: How to reintegrate abandoned social housing complexes in different areas of Mexico.

In response to the aggravating abandonment rates in Mexican social housing complexes, the studio aimed to address this issue and simultaneously offer solutions to the actual housing deficit. The studio’s focal point was to understand the specific environmental conditions each of the chosen case study housing complexes, and to cast a proposal that could architecturally reintegrate these spaces and transform them into a positive detonator for its surroundings. The book features a general introduction of the problem and thematic of the studio, and a chapter for each of the projects: Monterrey, Tijuana, Ciudad Juárez, Guadalajara, and Cancún.

“It is that empathy that distinguishes much of Ms. Bilbao’s work, infusing a vision of architecture as a platform that people can use to improve their quality of life according to their own needs, rather than those mapped out for them by planners and developers.”

Future Real Louis I. Kahn Visiting Assistant Professorship 08

Michael Young, Kersten Geers, David Erdman The future is not as far away as it might seem.

What seemed a problem of the next generation now has become a problem of tomorrow. We are accelerating towards a future that is evermore present, guided by political and economic forces that seem unintelligible. Is this quick-paced intangible progression, the role of the architect is at stake. How can architecture keep up with society? Can it adapt quickly enough to frame it? And is so, what should that frame look like?

The book features interviews with the professors and essays on their specific studio topics. Michael Young investigates the past from the future in “Aesthetics of Accelerationism: The Icelandic Infrastructure 2036-2056.”

Kersten Geers analyzes visions for agricultural ensembles for communal living in “Architecture Without Consent 19: Almost Classicism.” And David Erdman looks to the potential of building on top of housing estates in Hong Kong in “Objects and Qualities.”

Caza: 2011-2015 Carlos Arnaiz The inaugural monograph of the Brooklyn-based design studio CAZA, celebrating the first five years of the firm.

Includes photographs, drawings, building descriptions, essays, and conversations that relate to CAZA’s global architecture and design practice.

The book opens with a photo essay by world-renowned photographer Iwan Baan, who documented CAZA’s first internationally acclaimed project, the 100 Walls Church, in Cebu City, Philippines.

With offices in Brooklyn, New York; Bogotá, Colombia; Lima, Peru; and Manila, Philippines, CAZA has emerged as a risk-taking, forward-thinking studio working on a mixture of residential, civic, and corporate projects that are shaping the built environment in cities around the world.

NESS. On Architecture, Life, and Urban Culture Issue 1/ Between Cozy History & Homey Technics

Florencia Rodriguez, Pablo Gerson NESS is a printed magazine on architecture, life, and urban culture which intends to address diverse ways of thinking about the built environment.

For the Spring 2018 issue, NESS warms up with a selection of the nine installations that rocked 2017 and further browses through the work of Eleni Petaloti & Leonidas Trampoukis, whose sibling practices shift from one scale to another with subtle sophistication.

Next, NESS headed to Detroit and dedicates a 38-page survey to draw a portrait of the city through their own curious and questioning lenses. In the Dossier section, “Between Cozy History and Homey Technics”, architects, critics, and thinkers were asked to provocatively discuss the intellectual and pragmatic set of tools. Finally, NESS sat down with two acclaimed architecture offices: French Bruther and New York-based SO-IL.

With contributions of: Stan Allen, Emanuel Christ, Daniela Freiberg, Anna W. von Huber, Sharon Johnston, Isabella Moretti, Lisa Naudin, Enrique Ramirez, Camilo Restrepo, Javier Agustín Rojas, Mariam Samur, Lisa Ubelaker Andrade, Jesus Vassallo, Lena Wimmer, Mimi Zeiger.
