Summary:
Necessity and investigation are prerequisites for the design of housing: Total Housing refers to the need to understand that social, environmental, and economic factors affect form, and that living space is a base for our increasingly complex and varied societies. This new survey into multi-family housing focuses on the responses proposed by architects who are dealing with the dynamic and diverse demands of contemporary society. Featuring works by Lacaton-Vassal, BIG, + JDS, Sadar Vuga Arhitekti, Ryue Nishizawa, FOA, SHoP, and many emerging new architects, this volume is not a simple catalog, but rather a studied collection of inventive projects.

Crisis implies the questioning of beliefs and habits, it demands adjustment in perception and in modes of action.

Summary:
A crisis is a turning point, a decisive moment when tensions and instabilities peak and change becomes inescapable. Crisis implies the questioning of beliefs and habits, it demands adjustment in perception and in modes of action. So it is in this sixth installment of Verb that we take the opportunity to widen our angle of view. Having previously explored the positive impact of innovation and technological progress on the built environment, Verb now confronts underlying questions and doubts regarding current models of urban development, in the three chapters 'places', 'positions', and 'projects', including contributions by Shigeru Ban, Markus Miessen, Chantal Mouffe, Teddy Cruz, Takuya Onishi, Foreign Office Architects, and many more.

Summary:
The second issue of Verb asks: What can we really build? Verb Matters explores the formal and material possibilities for construction in our present information era, with its extensive data processing, global networking, and increasingly blurred distinctions between natural matter and artificial technology. This critical itinerary begins with reflections on the results of sophisticated ideas applied to the shaping of buildings including Toyo Ito's ephemeral work, recent attention to inflatable architecture and building with air, and the low tech approach of practitioners like LOT/EK. Consideration of the growing potential of current technology is also examined in a piece equating recent sneaker design technology to that of car manufacturing, as well as the use of artificial intelligence in home control networks at MIT's "Media House" project. Colorful, tactile, dense, and packaged in its own very contemporary design, Verb Matters remains devoted to cutting-edge issues in architecture and design. includes contributions from Toyo Ito, Greg Lynn, LOT/EK, Klein & Dytham, and Sherry Turkle
