Summary:
Italian architect and designer Carlo Scarpa (1906–1978) left a huge mark not only on architecture but also on a wide range of design fields. His success in his field developed from those moments when he devoted himself to the study of the various techniques of construction. Whether in glassware or museum design, in the use of materials or those involved in essential building skills, what seems to have first seized his attention was the creative limitations implicit in them. This issue is a reprint of an extra edition of the magazine on Scarpa that first appeared in October 1985. Revived 40 years after its initial publication, it once again celebrates the complete picture of Scarpa’s designs.

Summary:
a+u’s March issue interrogates sacredness and how it manifests in architectural space. Taking examples from religious works of architecture in different parts of the globe, such as Saint Pius Church in Switzerland and Bait Ur Rouf mosque in Bangladesh, this issue endeavors to establish a language of light and shadow, materiality, and scale. The notion of "sacred space" is further complicated by the introduction of AI. Guest editor Erwin Viray, using the theme of "sacred space," introduces generative AI tools that not only illuminate the direction that architectural design may take, but also confront human sensibilities and shared ideas about architectural space. Continuing this exploration, 14 nonreligious projects, such as Luis Barragán’s Barragán House, Álvaro Siza’s Tidal Pools of Leça da Palmeira, and Anne Holtrop’s Pearl Museum, ponder how this sense of sacredness, feelings of awe and serenity, can be introduced into our everyday lives.

Besides providing space for worship, each of the projects conveys innovative architectural approaches to express sacredness: classics like Jørn Utzon’s Bagsværd Church, Seema Malaka by Geoffery Bawa, and Lina Bo Bardi’s Church of the Holy Spirit. The issue also contrasts the various ways architecture can nurture a relationship with a higher force, and adds new spaces for contemplation, like Glenn Murcutt’s Cobar Sound Chapel or Motorway Chapel by Herzog & de Meuron.

The selected projects from Midtown and Lower Manhattan provide but a small cross section of the varying typologies of differing scales currently enhancing the architecture of New York City. Projects such as the Moynihan Train Hall by Skidmore Owings & Merrill (SOM) endeavor to preserve the fabric of the city while addressing the increased need for transportation hubs by the expansion of Pennsylvania station to the adjacent historic James A. Farley Building, while adaptive reuse projects such as Gansevoort Peninsula Park by nArchitects are part of a decadeslong effort to transform the industrial waterfront into much needed green spaces and sports facilities. Kohn Pedersen Fox Associates (KPF) addresses the shortage of residential space with projects that integrate the materiality of the building to its context and incorporate the human scale with the urban one. Amid the massive developments taking place, smaller practices such as Worrell Yeung and WORKac seek to preserve urban character, through surgical intervention in their renovation projects.

a+u’s August issue continues Mauricio Pezo and Sofía von Ellrichshausen’s first monograph published 12 years ago (a+u 2013:06, no. 513). The 20 works presented here showcase the evolution of their methodology and philosophy toward the concatenation of painting and architecture. Playing with the limits of the architectural surface through explorations in geometry, Pezo von Ellrichshausen invite the reader to consider the “architectonic picture,” not as a rigid reproduction but as a method of visualizing the self in the world amid all the world’s potentialities, where the physical eye and mind’s eye meet. Architecture, therefore, is not fixed but unpredictable, subject to the individual’s self-perception overlaid with the space and moment they occupy. Paintings by the duo allow us to enter their perception of architecture as both sensual and conceptual.

His portfolio continues to affirm his remarkable contribution to the field. Nervi conceived works involving large spaces and explored material possibilities, structure, technicality, economy, aesthetic expression, workability, and functionality. "Rediscovered" in the 1990s, Nervi’s legacy and the multidimensional facets of his work have re-emerged today thanks to numerous research efforts, such as the conservation efforts by Francesco Romeo, guest editor of this issue.

Following the global financial crisis in 2008, the construction industry faced a slowdown; what was then considered “typically” Dutch has since faded, replaced with a new, more modest attitude in the Dutch architecture scene. Across three themes, guest editor Kirsten Hannema introduces nineteen projects that are perceived as combining broader social issues, and which in turn have taken on a new form of cultural momentum, despite going relatively unnoticed in comparison with the “SuperDutch” generation. With work by NL Architects, Superuse Studios, Mecanoo, more.
