Summary:
Architecture Without Content is architecture reduced to its very perimeter. The books in the series are the outcome of studios offered at EPFL. This 21st incarnation of Architecture Without Content is, more than previous editions, a report related to our current (political) malaise. Apart from political urgency, what has changed? If always an architecture of necessity and economy (of means) was central to our argument, we felt it necessary to refine our recent arguments with a more Spartan catalogue. Classicism, acting as a catalyst for simplification, results in this collection of The Commons; an ambiguous collection of possible architecture themes. The catalogue spans from the obelisk, as pure architecture, to the fatto urbano, as a collection of architectural events in which the urban layout becomes the dominant factor.

Summary:
Architecture Without Content is architecture reduced to its very perimeter. The books in the series are the outcome of studios held at EPFL. In Architecture Without Content 16, an interest in Neo-Palladianism has been added to a project that investigates the impact of scale, as Palladianism was a defining factor in the early identification of 'American Architecture.' Thus, the studio was both formalistic and pragmatic and tried to inflate Palladian architecture to the scale of the strip: Neon Palladian. In the vast landscape of the United States of America, the scale of food production has always been gigantic. At the same time, it has seldom regained an architectural form similar to that of its most defining orgins. In this book, you will find projects that are organising an aspect of food production. In one way or another, they reconnect to the long-lost virtues of Jefferson's Palladianism.

Summary:
Architecture Without Content is architecture reduced to its very perimeter. The books in the series are the outcome of studios offered at EPFL. In Architecture Without Content 19, Almost Classicism continues where Neon Palladian left us. It starts in full conviction that the current project on the United States has to focus both on the countryside and on an attenpt to introduce some kind of commons. We feel the best way to illustrate this is to start where the commons have dissolved, in what used to be called 'The Village'. Here in this booklet, two tracks are presented: a set of projects in agricultural Iowa that rethink co-op into small village centers, and another in post-industrial Ohio, where in the post-Hoover restart, fragments and islands are formalised as micro-urban organisms.

Summary:
Portman’s America & Other Speculations takes an unconventional and speculative approach towards the understanding and future potentials of the work of one of the world’s most creative, controversial, daring, and prolific architects. Combining the talents of an architect, artist, and developer, John Portman was able to embark on a series of large-scale building projects—megastructures—that radically redefined the relationship of architecture to the city and its citizens. Portman’s own voice and ideas complement the contributions of others, including new photographs by Iwan Baan, to present a more complex and nuanced reading of both the architect and his architecture. Finally, the repertoire of Portman’s buildings is analyzed in meticulous detail and used by a group of students from the Harvard Graduate School of Design as a catalyst for a host of divergent and new architectural speculations.

Summary:
Revolutionary developments in economics are rare. The conservative bias of the field and its enshrined knowledge make it difficult to introduce new ideas not in line with received theory. Happiness research, however, has the potential to change economics substantially in the future. Its findings, which are gradually being taken into account in standard economics, can be considered revolutionary in three respects: the measurement of experienced utility using psychologists’ tools for measuring subjective well-being; new insights into how human beings value goods and services and social conditions that include consideration of such non-material values as autonomy and social relations; and policy consequences of these new insights that suggest different ways for government to affect individual well-being.
