Skogen is the Swedish word for forest, and while the dense woods featured in Robert Adams's most recent series of photographs grow near his home in Oregon, the pictures evoke a wild utopia, and convey a hushed, primeval awe. In this volume, the latest to document Adams's ongoing quest to find form amid the chaos of nature, shadows predominate, tempered by an ambiguous light that is unique to the Pacific Northwest. Skogen features forty-six previously unpublished images. Also included are an introduction by the artist and a poem by Denise Levertov.

No Is Not an Answer presents Marie-Louise Ekman’s art. As one of the most influential artists in Sweden in the postwar period, Ekman was both part of Swedish pop and the rebellious underground in the ’60s and ’70s. She created a unique body of proto-feminist work, which draws equally from the playful imagination of a young woman and popular culture in the social welfare state. She has directed more than a dozen films, TV series, and plays, and since 2009 she has been the director of the Royal Dramatic Theatre in Stockholm.

Summary:
The work of Swedish architect Bernt Nyberg is featured in this monographic issue, which focuses especially on his formative projects from the 1960s and ’70s. A huge endeavour in the making, the research, documentation, and production of materials for this publication have lasted four years. Given the relatively unknown nature of Nyberg’s work, the narratives herein are derived from direct sources, either through archival research or interviews with the architect’s surviving collaborators. Matthew Hall headed the investigation into Nyberg’s currently endangered body of work in Sweden, which ranges from homes and row houses to administrative, care, and maintenance facilities.

Summary:
Architecture with a social conscience comes in several forms in this issue. Miquel Adrià calls for a “redensification” of social housing. In a section on the ‘Corporate Drive to be in Good Shape’, the Hyundai education and research training facility gives workers breathability between sea and mountain in Gyeongju. An all-timber construction of a Norwegian bank in Stavanger has a positive effect on user experience and well being. In ‘Learning within Location and Place’, the patterns of Sami indigenous people shape a major Swedish school. New projects include a Möbius strip-inspired lakeside cultural complex.

Summary:
What are the homes of the Viennese like? And, most importantly, to what degree do the architectural concepts for living space meet the demands of everyday life? Architecture journalist Wojciech Czaja and photographer Lisi Specht take a joint look behind the façades of subsidised housing in Vienna and invite tenants and owners to voice their opinions. 20 residential buildings designed by Viennese architect Albert Wimmer are put to the test and examined from a number of different angles – ranging from their suitability for furniture from a major Swedish furniture chain to the chances and challenges of social togetherness.
