Summary:
In the age of the Anthropocene, in which humanity acts on cycles and systems with all its power and capital, architecture and energy together mean more than operational or embodied energy, active and passive solutions. In the face of the climate crisis, beyond the phase-out of fossil fuels, architecture has a mediating role; it is about socio-cultural rethinking.(...)

Summary:
In the age of the Anthropocene, in which humanity acts on cycles and systems with all its power and capital, architecture and energy together mean more than operational or embodied energy, active and passive solutions. In the face of the climate crisis, beyond the phase-out of fossil fuels, architecture has a mediating role; it is about socio-cultural rethinking. Disquietude addresses the entanglement between architecture and energy in the 20th century, using Portugal as an example. Featuring different local Portuguese voices, the publication identifies the potential for a transition that could be local, sustainable, diverse, and just and be meaningful also in an international perspective.

Summary:
Through much of the twentieth century, a diverse group of thinkers engaged in an interdisciplinary conversation about the meaning of time and history for modern art and architecture. The group included architects Louis Kahn, Everett Victor Meeks, James Gamble Rogers, Paul Rudolph, and Eero Saarinen; artists Anni and Josef Albers; philosopher Paul Weiss; and art historians Henri Focillon, George Kubler, Sibyl Moholy-Nagy, and Vincent Scully. These figures were unified by their resistance to the idea that, to be considered modern, art and architecture had to be of its time, as well as by the pivotal role that Yale University held as a backdrop to their thinking. These thinkers sponsored a new kind of approach, one that Eeva-Liisa Pelkonen terms ''untimely,'' emphasizing a departure from a sequential course of events. Ideas about temporal duration, new tradition, the presence of the past, and the shape of time were among the concepts they explored. With an interdisciplinary focus, Pelkonen reveals previously unexplored connections among key figures of American intellectual and artistic culture at midcentury whose works and words would shape modern architecture.

Summary:
Covering twenty-seven examples, illustrated by newly commissioned drawings and photographs, this volume reflects on the architectural ambitions and lived realities of these quotidian buildings. Architectural and urban designer Karin Templin considers the ways in which the mansion block came to define large areas of the city from Westminster and South Kensington in the nineteenth century to Kilburn and Stratford in the twenty-first. Reflecting London’s development from its consolidation as a metropolis in the high Victorian era to its present efforts to address a longstanding housing crisis, this volume explores the mansion block’s centrality to the capital’s identity and its wider relevance to discussions of housing and urban planning. This book is first in a series on types of London housing, reflecting on the place of the home in the city in the light of its longstanding housing crisis.

De la commune d'Etterbeek à celle de Schaerbeek, de la place Royale au parc du Cinquantenaire, Nicholas Lewis nous guide lors d'une déambulation sensible dans les rues de Bruxelles afin d'examiner en profondeur le rapport qu'entretient la société belge à son histoire coloniale. La présence durable de noms de rues, de monuments, de bâtiments et d'institutions glorifiant explicitement la colonisation du Congo constitue un point d'entrée pour regarder en face les déclinaisons de la négrophobie contemporaine. L'ouvrage formule ainsi une remise en question radicale des structures du pouvoir colonial et racial à travers une critique politique et esthétique de l'espace public bruxellois.

In this book, Martin Marker and his students from The Royal Danish Academy - Architecture, Design, Conservation at the Institute of Architecture, Urbanism and Landscape - BA Programme investigate Copenhagen as a Wunderkammer of architectural typologies. Leaving the focus on materiality and visual aesthetics aside, the book explores how programmatic complexities and existing structures can form foundations for future urbanism in a rapidly changing world with a growing population, climate changes, and limited resources. This book extends a welcoming invitation to explore and examine our urban structures, sparking a vital conversation that encourage a fresh perspective on our existing typologies, ensuring their continued relevance for the people who inhabit them.

Summary:
"Prishtina in 53 Buildings" draws a multifaceted portrait of Kosovo’s capital city by using architecture as a prism to understand political, cultural and economic processes. Essays on fifty-three built structures, written by different authors with different geographical background and different professional perspective, add up to multilayered account of the city’s history and present. "Prishtina in 53 Buildings" is more than a guide book for visitors or residents of the city. Buildings are not only the materialization of design principles or architectonic ideas, but the outcome of socio-economic processes. The built environment is constantly re-appropriated, re-interpreted and re-valuated as architects do not have the final say as to the meaning and the function of an edifice. By conceptualizing architecture as materialization of societal processes, "Prishtina in 53 Buildings" pushes beyond notions that assume an intrinsic and coherent "logic" of cities. The editors Donika Luzhnica and Jonas König show that a polyphonic approach is more apposite to depict the often-contradictory trajectories of urban development.

The publication brings together a collection of more than 300 photographs by Francisco Ascensão illustrating about 70 projects made by young architecture offices in Portugal."Today, it is nearly impossible to distinguish architectural schools or styles. Regional schools are homogenized by a universal system of education and references, temporal periodization is absorbed by the ‘contemporary’. In the book there is no claim about a certain tendency. The absence of captions is programmatic. Rather than competing for clients and attention the images show a culture of generosity and mutual curiosity, a culture of openness and collectivity, immediacy and care, optimism and liveliness. A new beginning." - Philip Ursprung, 2024
