Summary:
Opening with an essay by Andreas Marx on the role of workplaces in cities, this special edition of the magazine presents eighteen international works that reflect the increasing flexibility of creative jobs in the 21st century. Designers, artists, and many other professionals are approaching their daily activities in new ways, and the freedom offered by mobile devices and Internet ubiquity is liberating their fast-paced work from prescribed locations and times. Office systems are incorporating new functions and activities as a result, like open zones without hierarchies and areas that operate like urban public spaces. With works by 3XN, Torafu Architects, OMA, Davidson Rafailidis, and more.

The new generation of museums, besides being geopolitically diverse, has also become more egalitarian, which in turn makes branding and consumerism integral to their operations.

Summary:
This issue introduces the most recent works by three Korean architects: Seung H-Sang, Byoungsoo Cho, and Heesoo Kwak. Four critics travelled across Korea to visit three buildings and interview the architects in person. Also featured are reviews of five communal buildings that are intended to be shared and enjoyed by their communities. Each is set in a tranquil location and has its own personality. Finally, the issue investigates the hybrid nature of large community complex buildings, vertical towns that provide one-stop service systems. Clearly, with the acceleration of urbanisation, the position of architects in small rural towns versus mega-cities tends to differ greatly.
