Summary:
Although it is doubtful that the aggressive attitudes exercised during the 20th century for ever faster, more dominant infrastructures can ever be completely tamed, there is already a movement in recent years towards softer, greener, slower infrastructures that can improve social life while addressing ecological offenses. This special issue looks ahead to a brighter future for urban infrastructure through the lens of fifteen recent works. Among these are the Princeton Transit Hall and Market by Rick Joy Architects, Luís Pedro Silva’s Porto Cruise Terminal, Lahti Travel Centre by JKMM Architects, Napoli-Afragola High Speed Train Station by Zaha Hadid Architects, and more.

Summary:
Courts of law are projections of civic power into the built environment. States have traditionally expressed themselves with monumentality, with its implications of permanence, but modern government aspires to transparency, which society also expects.

Summary:
University architecture has been significantly changing in recent decades. Globally, institutions of higher learning are gradually adapting their traditional buildings to meet a growing societal demand for a more democratic, equal, and diverse education system.
