Summary:
This publication examines the economic conditions of architecture, which are all too often disregarded in the day-to-day life of people working in the profession. The focus is on contracts, jobs, and office structures, on profitability and phases in the construction industry’s economic cycles, on work processes, authorship, and labour rights, on digital outsourcing, and digital out- sourcing. The book sets out to reveal the business footing on which architecture stands: How does it operate today in economic terms? "ARCH+ The Business of Architecture" is intended as a stimulus, offering tools that will empower budding and practising architects alike. A rich variety of (for the most part) up-and-coming offices are presented that have developed new, forward-looking business models, organizational strategies, and resource concepts: these include ARGE c/o, Assemble, Chybik+Kristof, Ana Filipovic, IFUB*, L’atelier—Nomadic Architecture Studio, and Space & Matter.

Summary:
Légèreté ne signifie plus simplicité : elle exige désormais un équilibre subtil entre innovation et impact, où chaque décision architecturale engage un avenir partagé. Les numéros 83 et 84 de Faces sont consacrés aux thèmes du léger et du lourd. Ces deux notions entretiennent souvent un rapport d'antonymie et d'antinomie ; elles signalent une opposition de deux propositions conceptuelles et pratiques entre lesquelles l'architecte doit en principe opter, en fonction du lieu, de la culture et de la tradition constructive dans lesquels il s'inscrit et en vertu de ses convictions esthétiques, techniques, économiques, politiques ou éthiques. Cette opposition en apporte quantité d'autres à sa suite, parmi lesquelles l'éphémère et le durable, le mobile et l'immobile, la liberté et la contrainte, le fragile et le solide.

Summary:
The intersection of architecture and the machine has a history that stretches back to the Industrial Revolution, however the machine has recently begun to appear in new ways in speculative architectural drawing and modelling. This issue of AD considers the influence of the machine as an allegorical device for exploring alternative architectural practices, and includes a cross-section of viewpoints from emerging and established international practitioners and academics. Allegory, a technique native to literature, provides a critical method through which machine typologies can contribute to deeper architectural narratives, offering new lenses for challenging or reassembling conventional modes of thought. An allegorical architectural project can unveil a story that enhances our awareness of something important. This AD reveals how engagement with the machine as an allegorical device in architectural discourse provides an avenue for architecture to provoke new ideas in response to current environmental, political, economic, cultural and social issues. At the forefront of this discussion, it extends the criticality of the topic within the broader spectrum of history, theory, philosophy, allegory and new technologies.

Summary:
"Welcome to Issue #3 of Sociotype Journal, the type specimen for designers who like to read. Our theme this time is Home. What makes a home? Or a home away from home? And how does power (or a lack of it) change the concept and the reality of what ‘home’ means? Join us for a top-down and bottom-up tour of domesticity, from geometrically pristine masterplanned utopias, to an altogether more DIY approach: unplanned and off-grid, into the margins, into ruin, and into hiding in plain sight. We’ll look at Potemkin villages and replica cities, McMansions and sham castles, cube farms and hot desks; spite fences, coffin homes, hippie communes, suburban malls, Cold War-era radar stations and more."
