Summary:
SUKO Magazine is an artist-run, Montreal-based publication featuring the work of artists and cultural workers based locally and internationally. "Frontiers" reveals discussions critiquing imposed political barriers, tangible and symbolic borders, categorized identities, and binary worldviews. This issue features an array of photography, writing, styling, object design, and more, all expanding on ideas of the either/or, the here/there, the back/forth, and the blurry space of the in-between. The selected works reveal varying perceptions and challenges brought on by the copious ways borders and boundaries exist. Placed in context with one another, these contributions honour lineage and storytelling as methods of truth telling and resistance against ongoing forms of violence and occupation.

The escalation of ecological, military, and capitalist destruction has dominated current developments in many places. This issue of TEXTE ZUR KUNST puts forward two psychanalytical concepts that lend themselves to describing destructive tendencies, as well as to possible ways of redirecting aggression away from violence and into creative work: the death drive and(...)

Summary:
The escalation of ecological, military, and capitalist destruction has dominated current developments in many places. This issue of TEXTE ZUR KUNST puts forward two psychanalytical concepts that lend themselves to describing destructive tendencies, as well as to possible ways of redirecting aggression away from violence and into creative work: the death drive and sublimation. Contributions subject these concepts to a discursive stress test and set them in relation to historical and contemporary examples of artistic production. Although this does not alleviate structural hopelessness and its affective dimension, it makes these amenable to negotiation.

Summary:
This double issue of TC Cuadernos explores two decades of Kengo Kuma & Associates' prolific production, focusing on their urban architecture between 2006 and 2024. Through a careful selection of projects, the monograph offers a comprehensive overview of KKAA's evolution and its constant interplay between the rural, explored in TC 158, and the urban. The work is organised around five key strategies: attract, mimetize, hide, occupy and organise. These categories reveal how Kuma approaches urban design in complex contexts. Projects such as the V Dundee Museum in Scotland and the 1550 Alberni Street Tower in Vancouver demonstrate his ability to create architectural landmarks without resorting to traditional monumentalism, prioritising materiality and the environment. On the other hand, the Asakusa Tourist Information Centre in Tokyo and the Nezu Museum show how his architecture is subtly integrated into the urban landscape.

Summary:
When departments within an organisation fail to share information with each other, the popular term is “silo mentality”. Universities also suffer from this phenomenon, with learning and research in one field literally walled off from others. But architecture can create a very different environment: transparent, flexible, interactive. The magazine examines ''UCL East(...)

Summary:
When departments within an organisation fail to share information with each other, the popular term is “silo mentality”. Universities also suffer from this phenomenon, with learning and research in one field literally walled off from others. But architecture can create a very different environment: transparent, flexible, interactive. The magazine examines ''UCL East Marshgate'', designed by Stanton Williams, and the Faculty of Arts at Warwick University by Feilden Clegg Bradley Studios as excellent examples. Also in this issue, a special feature on the Chilean practice of Pezo von Ellrichshausen and new work by Snøhetta, Wallmarkers, Peter Pichler Architecture, Atelier FCJZ, and more.

The use of mass timber (also called engineered wood) in architecture involves prefabricated modular parts, making construction quicker and cheaper, and applying digital technology to design and fabrication.

Summary:
The use of mass timber (also called engineered wood) in architecture involves prefabricated modular parts, making construction quicker and cheaper, and applying digital technology to design and fabrication. Both glue-laminated timber (glulam) and cross-laminated timber (CLT) are load-bearing materials that offer buildings not only a positive carbon footprint but also flame-retardant qualities. A special feature on mass timber includes exemplary projects such as the ''World of Volvo'' by Henning Larsen and the ''Rehmannia Root Crafts Exhibition Hall'' by LUO studio. In addition, the magazine features a special profile on new Basque topography through the eyes of Ele Arkitektura.

Summary:
For architects, designing adaptive reuse projects for buildings originally constructed for religious purposes is a challenging task. Different approaches to transforming historic structures often spark intense debate. The three projects examined in this issue’s special feature on the future of preservation illustrate different interpretations of the principles set forth in the ''Charter of Krakow'' (2000), a document aimed at establishing common ground. In addition, the magazine zooms in on Max Núñez Arquitectos through an interview with the architect and selected projects, including the Hogar Alemán Elderly Care Home and MUSEAT Atacama Regional Museum, both in Chile.
