Summary:
In the age of the Anthropocene, in which humanity acts on cycles and systems with all its power and capital, architecture and energy together mean more than operational or embodied energy, active and passive solutions. In the face of the climate crisis, beyond the phase-out of fossil fuels, architecture has a mediating role; it is about socio-cultural rethinking.(...)

Summary:
In the age of the Anthropocene, in which humanity acts on cycles and systems with all its power and capital, architecture and energy together mean more than operational or embodied energy, active and passive solutions. In the face of the climate crisis, beyond the phase-out of fossil fuels, architecture has a mediating role; it is about socio-cultural rethinking. Disquietude addresses the entanglement between architecture and energy in the 20th century, using Portugal as an example. Featuring different local Portuguese voices, the publication identifies the potential for a transition that could be local, sustainable, diverse, and just and be meaningful also in an international perspective.

The COVID-19 pandemic has forced a re-examination of the architecture and design of our interiors from a wide range of perspectives. As containment measures were imposed, the private dwelling became central to the lives of many people worldwide; no longer a simple accumulation of furniture and objects, the interior is an intimate, socio-cultural construction anchored in a precise moment of space and time. A text by Swiss architect Philippe Rahm, who has long worked on climate phenomena and is now looking at its relationship with the pandemic, is among the ten articles by international contributors in this issue, guest edited by design historian Penny Sparke.

Summary:
''Almanac for the anthropocene'' collects original voices from across the solarpunk movement, which positions ingenuity, generativity, and community as beacons of resistance to the hopelessness often inspired by the climate crisis. To point toward practical implementation of the movement’s ideas, it gathers usable blueprints that bring together theory and practice. The result is a collection of interviews, recipes, exercises, DIY instructions, and more—all of it amounting to a call to create hope through action. Inspired by a commitment to the idea that there can be no environmental justice without decolonial and racial justice,'' Almanac for the anthropocene'' unites in a single volume both academic and practical responses to environmental crisis.

Being visual climate thermometers, glaciers are usually portrayed and talked about from that perspective. But Swiss photographer Julian Stetler looks at glaciers as living beings and active protagonists. Born out of the permanent metamorphosis from snow to ice, they are uniquely dynamic.

Summary:
Being visual climate thermometers, glaciers are usually portrayed and talked about from that perspective. But Swiss photographer Julian Stetler looks at glaciers as living beings and active protagonists. Born out of the permanent metamorphosis from snow to ice, they are uniquely dynamic. From the human perspective, we can only ever perceive slices of them; they exist in a different timescale, beyond our grasp. This book examines the many ways of glacial expression, the diverse shapes and colours they assume, and how they influence and mingle with their surroundings. With a poem by Daniela Molnar, plus contributions by a journalist, a landscape architect, and a microbiologist.
