Multispace exists at the intersection of the physical and digital, and in the blurring of their previously clear dividing lines. Multispace is not a single space, but a hybrid space where, in effect, we occupy multiple spaces simultaneously.

Summary:
Multispace exists at the intersection of the physical and digital, and in the blurring of their previously clear dividing lines. Multispace is not a single space, but a hybrid space where, in effect, we occupy multiple spaces simultaneously. We enter it on a Zoom call, when we are in our office and in a meeting with 20 people; when we are cycling down a country lane whilst racing against thousands of others who also use the Strava app; when we are watching a TV show while live tweeting; or, perhaps most literally, when wandering around the local park looking for creatures that only appear on a smartphone screen. A fundamental question of this AD is why the phenomena that multispace describes are of concern to architects. The answer is that multispace points to a situation that is at root an architectural one. Offering both a collective and highly personalised experience, static and dynamically customisable, and above all at the same time public and private, multispace lies at the centre of a set of tensions, concerns and preoccupations at the core of our conception of architecture as theory and practice. It is the messy space between, with rough and uneven edges that are constantly shifting.

The legal and economic frameworks of ownership are so ubiquitous that it is easy to forget that they are human-made, with their own specific histories. The September issue of "The Architectural Review" looks at some of these histories, from the ideas of John Locke to their violent instrumentalisation within a range of colonial contexts.

Summary:
The legal and economic frameworks of ownership are so ubiquitous that it is easy to forget that they are human-made, with their own specific histories. The September issue of "The Architectural Review" looks at some of these histories, from the ideas of John Locke to their violent instrumentalisation within a range of colonial contexts. From new housing in Singapore and Geneva to alternative models of co-living and co-operative ownership, and from prospecting tools of digital gameworlds to a story of placemaking gone horribly wrong, the Property issue examines how the concept of property shapes design, and who benefits.

Summary:
Through an extensive investigation of the new searches and work productions of international artists, the new CURA. 41, New World Agency™ raises questions related to the ability of art and artists to have a transformative role as regards the apparent irreversibility of the events that impact our present. In a shift between fiction and reality, New World Agency™ explores, with a transgenerational gaze, the artists who foresaw the building of new possible worlds and new modes of agency for alternative futures. Not only AI, CGI, videogames and virtual reality, but also highly advanced analog tools, animatronics, and mechanical devices are able to forge the imaginative, creative and narrative space of artists, founding new realities, in which mythology, ghosts, topoi, fables, childhood memories, technology, pop culture and magic intertwine, in the comprehensive illusion to be in different places and in part of it.

Summary:
Dans un monde terreau de multiples scissions, ce second numéro explore les liens entre l’amour, l’architecture et la société, au travers de 400 pages unissant texte et représentation graphique. Du fantasme à la rupture, la structure éditoriale dessine les étapes d’une histoire d’amour générique qu’il vous appartient de déconstruire, à l’instar des trente-cinq contributeur·rice·s issu·e·s de disciplines diverses ont bousculé les normes dominantes et projeter par le verbe et l’image, un monde plus inclusif. Six chapitres interrogeant l'étymologie du terme POLYGONE et constituant autant de débats singuliers, questionnent des notions communes à la pratique de l’architecture et à celle de l’amour, pour que ce sentiment, enfin, infuse la fabrique de la ville et de la campagne.
