"PA 24 : some among them are killers" explores unmanaged landscapes, territories that the author calls "wildernesses." These emerge from the cracks of mapping the spaces, at a variety of scales, that literally reside in the margins of error of our abilities to measure and calibrate space.

Résumé:
"PA 24 : some among them are killers" explores unmanaged landscapes, territories that the author calls "wildernesses." These emerge from the cracks of mapping the spaces, at a variety of scales, that literally reside in the margins of error of our abilities to measure and calibrate space. From Yosemite National Park to the ubiquitous one-gallon milk jug, architect David Ross depicts the relationships between architecture and miscalibration and explores the spatial, tactile, and political ramifications of our reliance on modern devices of precision and overdetermination.

Résumé:
The city of Graz in Steiermark, Austria, has been chosen as cultural capital of Europe for 2003. On this occasion, a number of significant architectural projects, art installations and events have been planned in the city. This exhibition at the Aedes West gallery in Berlin focuses on two of the major and most radical architectural projects: the new museum of Modern Art, which was the object of an international design competition won by the London architects Peter Cook and Colin Fournier, and the Stadthalle designed by the Graz architect Klaus Kada. The Kunsthaus is currently under construction and will open on the 23rd of September 2003. The Stadthalle opened on the 6th of October 2002. These two projects make an unusual pair in that they are in complete contrast not only in terms of programme and but mostly in terms of their design philosophy: the Kunsthaus is a biomorphic project conceived as a smooth bulbous volume of continuous double curved surfaces, while the Stadthalle is distinguished by a slender roof cantilevered high above the street. The playful aesthetic tension between these two extreme designs, at this interesting and provocative point in history when the architectural envelope is being pushed in many contradictory directions, provides the dominant conceptual and visual theme of the exhibition, which also offers an overview of some of the other key design projects recently completed in the city.

Résumé:
A new council office, designed by Squire and Partners, opened in Nairobi in November 2004. The design utilises the local climate and orientation to passively control the building’s environment and has evolved from Squire and Partners’ ethos of contextual modernism. The practice works hard with site locations, aspect and orientation to develop proposals that are both appropriate and culturally of their 'place’. The design responds specifically to both the culture of the British council in East Africa and the site context of central Nairobi to create a dramatic, beautiful space. The British Council’s Visual Arts Department commissioned a site specific work for the new building from artist David Tremlett who was invited to contribute wall drawings to the front and back elevations and to the main corridors leading to the teaching areas within the building. The drawings of rubbed pigment and varnish highlight accentuate the flat planes of the building and the colours harmonise with the vibrant richness of the Kenyan soil, vegetation and sky.

Résumé:
The changes which Information Technology has brought to all areas of our lives have been dramatic. Even in architecture it´s influence has been far-reaching, creating new processes opening up exciting new prospects. In this book, Peter Eisenman, Derrick de Kerckhove, and Antonino Saggio write boldly on the challenges which now face young architects. The IT Revolution offers opportunities which were previously undreamt of, but at the same time, danger lurks in the realm of virtuality with its implication of unlimited possibilities. Furio Barzon uses examples from contemporary architecture to underscore the three text contributions and also places them in the context of state of the art technology and future developments.

Résumé:
Since the famous competition for the Park La Villette in Paris where the participants included Bernard Tschumi, Peter Eisenman and Gilles Deleuze, the relationship between building and landscape has been dramatically transformed. Concepts such as metamorphosis and interaction, layers and fields are becoming as much a part of architectonic discourse as the practical designs and the realization. Author Paola Gregory examines this interplay between buildings and landscapes present in today´s architecture scene, illustrating her analysis with exciting examples including the ecological landscapes of James Wines and Greg Lynn, the virtual environments of Marcos Novak and Nox, buildings by Jean Nouvel and Toyo Ito which actively incorporate passers-by and surroundings by means of new media.
