Summary:
Taiwan is densely populated along the island's perimeter and largely covered with steep, rugged mountain ranges spanning from north to south. Strong ties exist between the authorities, academics, developers, building professions, and citizens, and despite its volatile political and challenging economic situations, the administering of public works and commissioning of various commercial projects has maintained its creativity and rationality. Through first-hand experience the magazine explores more than 20 projects borne out of the unique conditions on Taiwan, among them works by Mecanoo, Jun Aoki, Jay Chiu, OMA, Casagrande Laboratory, Fieldoffice Architects, and others.

Summary:
Founded in 2000 by four classmates from Barcelona’s Vallès School of Architecture, Harquitectes exudes a clear ambition toward universal relevance while being rooted in Catalonia. Which is why their architecture still holds a particularly Mediterranean feel, blurring the threshold between inside and outside. Simply put, their buildings are passive thermal machines that harmonise the built and natural surroundings to achieve comfort. Of the eighteen projects featured here, half are public buildings while the rest are private residences. Needless to say, their detailed and holistic approach has garnered much-deserved acclaim in the 21st-century architecture world.
