Summary:
Vector Architects, founded by Gong Dong in 2008, has prioritised the relationship of built work to its site, from seasides or mountains to the heart of the city, while investigating both natural and artificial landmarks for clues on how best to address the requirements of each programme. And while the office is no stranger to bold gestures, a recent work such as the Jingyang Camphor Court seems to retreat from view, knitting itself into the urban fabric until structure and surroundings become inseparable. The issue also features Xiangshan Library, Changjiang Art Museum, Shanghai Maritime Pavilion, and more, plus essays by Gong Dong, David Leatherbarrow, and Michele Bonino.

Ce dossier veut tisser des liens, recoudre ce continent appelé Amériques, malgré tout ce qui le déchire. À travers une série de rencontres : traductions, mutations, fuites et autres longs parcours, il se tourne, pour penser art et politique, vers des créateurices d'Amérique latine. Il y sera question entre autres d'identités troublées, de mémoires à retrouver, de survie et de vie bonne, de réciprocité nécessaire. Une invitation à écrire ensemble, marcher hors des grandes routes pour réduire les distances, contourner les dominations et chercher des ancrages sensibles dans un territoire blessé.

If it is understood that we are now in age that that does not look at modernity uncritically, how does its optimistic imagery continue to play a vital role in architecture?

Summary:
"Perspecta 32" is an investigation into architectural modernism in a postmodern age and exploration of surface as a subject with depth. If it is understood that we are now in age that that does not look at modernity uncritically, how does its optimistic imagery continue to play a vital role in architecture? The issue, "Resurfacing modernism", is composed of essays and images that invoke the two simultaneous meanings of the verb tu resurface. In the first sense, some of the contributors interrogate ongoing returns of past "stylistics", specially the recent vogue for postwar, mostly American, production loosely united under the rubric "The fifties". In the second, other contributors reflect upon current emphasis being placed on architectural surfaces.

Summary:
Building plots are becoming scarce, housing costs are soaring, and apartments in new developments are shrinking. Properties long considered unsuitable or uneconomical for building are now being developed, and residential units are increasingly stacked – side by side and on top of each other – into ever-larger blocks. Standardisation and industrial prefabrication seem indespensible. The March issue presents outstanding housing projects in Amsterdam, Barcelona, Brooklyn, Brussels, Frankfurt, and Vienna, showcasing innovative responses to urban challenges.
