Summary:
In Manhattan Atmospheres , David Gissen explores the rise of the “late-modern” architectural environment as a form of “socio-nature” during New York City’s crisis years. The period between the mid-1960s and early 1980s in New York City has long been a case-study in the collapse of urban networks. Images of blighted buildings, degraded landscapes, and collapsed(...)

Summary:
In Manhattan Atmospheres , David Gissen explores the rise of the “late-modern” architectural environment as a form of “socio-nature” during New York City’s crisis years. The period between the mid-1960s and early 1980s in New York City has long been a case-study in the collapse of urban networks. Images of blighted buildings, degraded landscapes, and collapsed infrastructure typify the way this period in the city have been represented. But rather than a site of urban collapse, the ambition of New York City’s built environment continued, albeit inside the environments of late-modern architectural space.

Summary:
"The limitless city" offers an accessible examination of the predominant form of land use in the United States today - the all too familiar pattern of commercial and residential development know as sprawl. Oliver Gillham, an architect and planner with more than twenty-five years of experience in the field, considers the history and development of sprawl and examines current debates about the issue. The book offers a comprehensive definition of sprawl in America; traces the roots of sprawl and considers the factors that led to its preeminence as an urban and suburban form reviews both its negative impacts (loss of open space, increased pollution, gridlock) as well as its positive aspects (economic development, personal freedom, privacy); considers responses to sprawl including "smart growth," urban growth boundaries, regional planning, and the New Urbanism; looks at what can be done to improve and counterbalance sprawl. The author argues that whether we like it or not, sprawl is here to stay, and only by understanding where it came from and why it developed will we be able to successfully address the problems it has created and is likely to create in the future. "The limitless city" provides a realistic look at sprawl, with a frank recognition of its status as the predominant urban form in America, now and into the near future. Rather than railing against it, Gillham charts its probable future course while describing critical efforts that can be undertaken to improve the future of sprawl and our existing urban core areas.

Summary:
This publication is about the relationship between energy and the form of our built environment. It examines the optimisation of energy flows in building and urban design and the implications for form and configuration. It speaks to both architectural and engineering audiences and offers for the first time a truly interdisciplinary overview on the subject, explaining the complex relationships between energy and architecture in an easy to follow manner and using simple diagrams to show how energy design strategies can be used to maximize the energy performance of our built environment, while at the same time leading to new aesthetic qualities and radically new forms in architecture and urban design. Case studies are used to illustrate the theory.
