Summary:
This issue focuses on diverse combinations of architecture and support structures. The structures presented include a pre-stressed concrete construction, a twisted wood frame truss, a point-supported bowl composed of pre-fabricated steel elements and a lattice bowl with an enormous span width. Helen & Hard's library in Norway illustrates how a support structure made of glue-laminated timber can merge with built-in components and furniture. A pavilion at the University of Tokyo makes use of a strut system in the form of a tensegrity structure for its temporary architecture. A framework of a completely different kind was used by gmp Architekten for the national stadium in Warsaw: the roof consists of a modified bicycle-wheel-like structure that can be completely enclosed by a membrane. In an interview, Volkwin Marg of gmp Architekten talks about his experiences in conducting major representative projects in many different countries all over the world.

Summary:
Economic decline and social cuts have engendered widespread unease across the whole of the Iberian Peninsula. In the case of architects, the situation is especially dire, as the region has seen the collapse of the housing market and diminishing funds for public projects. This issue of AV Monographs concentrates its focus on Portugal, where there is yet an optimistic outlook for exceptional architecture which demonstrates both material quality and formal refrain. Included are texts by Luis Fernández-Galiano and Jorge Figueira, plus diverse projects like the Lisbon Oceanarium Extension by Pedro Campos Costa, Casa NuDi by Nuno Piedade Alexandre, and the Pedestrian Bridge in Covilhã by Carrilho da Graça & Afaconsult.
