Conceived as part of the one-year investigation Catching Up with Life, A Section of Now aims to re-establish a dialogue between architecture and society that would allow for architecture to begin to contend with and address our changed and changing social norms.

Summary:
Conceived as part of the one-year investigation Catching Up with Life, A Section of Now aims to re-establish a dialogue between architecture and society that would allow for architecture to begin to contend with and address our changed and changing social norms. The publication serves as a meditation on new behaviours, rituals, and values and their spatial implications and seeks to catalyze urban and architectural interventions that accommodate, influence, and, in some cases, pre-empt our new lived realities. Authors address topics ranging from the safety of digital spaces to how normative life trajectories affect the elderly and the many selves each of us puts forward, while architects present frameworks for spaces for blended families, thirty-year-old retirees, and contested monuments, among many others. Bringing together analytical essays about the contemporary moment and the direction in which society is moving, projective texts that outline new architectural types to address societal needs, alongside television series, photography, and architecture and design projects, A Section of Now outlines a new relationship between the spaces in which we live and the ways we live within them.

Summary:
Conçu dans le cadre du projet annuel Ressaisir la vie, le livre Une portion du présent vise à rétablir un dialogue entre l’architecture et la société, lequel permettrait à la première de commencer à composer et à traiter avec nos normes sociales modifiées et fluctuantes. Cette publication est une réflexion sur de nouveaux comportements, rituels, valeurs et sur leurs implications spatiales. Elle cherche à catalyser des interventions urbaines et architecturales qui concilient, influencent et, dans certains cas, anticipent nos réalités vécues d’aujourd’hui. Les auteurs abordent des sujets qui vont de la sécurité des espaces numériques à la façon dont les trajectoires de vie normatives touchent les personnes âgées et les nombreuses expressions du soi mises de l’avant par chacun d’entre nous, ainsi que la manière dont les architectes créent des contextes pour des espaces destinés à des familles recomposées, des retraités de trente ans et des monuments contestés, entre autres. Rassemblant des essais analytiques portant sur le moment contemporain et la direction que prend actuellement la société, des textes projectifs qui présentent des types architecturaux inédits pour traiter des besoins sociétaux, de même que des séries télévisées, photographies et projets d’architecture et de design, Une portion du présent trace le contour d’une relation nouvelle entre les espaces dans lesquels nous vivons et les manières dont nous le faisons.

In their conversations, history becomes a tool that can be used in production, rather than just an object of study. The book features newly produced plans, sections, models, and perspectives for projects by Go Hasegawa and OFFICE Kersten Geers David Van Severen, juxtaposed with reference material chosen from the CCA Collection. Introduced and annotated by the architects, these images form a visual manifesto for a unique relationship to history.

At the time, following the end of the Franco regime, architects were valued more for their technical ability than for their contributions to theoretical research.

Summary:
Iñaki Ábalos and Juan Herreros established the renowned architectural firm Ábalos & Herreros in Madrid in 1984. At the time, following the end of the Franco regime, architects were valued more for their technical ability than for their contributions to theoretical research. In this context, Ábalos and Herreros’s melding of design with a range of publications and curatorial projects presented a remarkable challenge to assumptions about the role of an architect. In 2012, the Canadian Centre for Architecture obtained the Ábalos & Herreros archive, which contains documents related to more than 160 projects. The material comprises sketches, slides, models, collages, and drawings. The archive presents a compelling opportunity to reconstruct Ábalos and Herreros’s planning and design process. Each of the book’s three contributors—two of whom worked with Ábalos and Herreros—approaches the archive with specific questions, and their essays explore topics including the architects’ fascination with industrial architecture, their capacity to construct a hybrid materiality without recourse to building technology as language, and their innovative visions for landscape architecture.

Summary:
This 2G monograph celebrates the craft and ingenuity of MOS, the Harlem-based architecture and design studio founded by Hilary Sample and Michael Meredith in 2005. Recipient of the 2015 Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum National Design Award in Architecture, MOS is responsible for a variety of international projects, from private residences to art studios and community centers, which draw on and combine a consistent vocabulary of readily identifiable shapes from its own architectural catalog—chimneys, corridors, courtyards, roofs, windows. Recent projects include the Huyghe + Le Corbusier Puppet Theater at Harvard’s Carpenter Center; Artist Studio in Ancram, New York; the Floating House in Lake Huron, Ontario; the Welcome and Education Center, Apan Housing Laboratory in Apan, Mexico; and the IVY Coathook System. This volume looks at a representative sampling of its acclaimed projects from the past two decades.
