As architecture programs throughout the country break out of the classroom and adopt the holistic methods of design/build programs, the need for a textbook that bridges the gap between construction materials and design sensibility is sorely needed.

Students must be taught how a choice of material affects the form and look of a structure; they must also learn how inspired design can inject any material with true personality and zeal. Broken into five sections — glass, wood, metals, plastics, and concrete — "Materials for design" makes a thorough study of each material's properties, followed by a series of 10–12 case studies of that material put to imaginative use by today's architects from around the world.

While their building designs shaped Vienna’s urban landscape and exemplified the famous Secession movement, these three architects also applied their eclectic principles to domestic interiors, or Wohnkultur (meaning "living" or "dwelling culture"). This book follows the progress of their debates and works, and how each designer sought to frame his own distinctive vision of living. The result was a split between the imperatives of style, function and livability that is still in play today.

Summary:
radition and precedent inspire invention, architectural drawing, and media practice. This issue of AD presents a series of encounters with printed drawings, leading to their transformation and reimagination. Archival media from the John Nichols Printmakers & Publishers Collection, located at the A83 gallery in New York City, becomes the foundation for a series of new works by contemporary architects. Collectively exhibited at A83 under the title ''The Sixth Somewhat Annual Meeting'', these drawings explore ways archival artifacts can be newly activated, how intricate material objects invite non-normative readings, and how shifts in media forms produce complex differential effects. The contributors address these concerns through close engagement with specific works, expanding the conversation between drawing, archive, and publication.

''The arsenal of exclusion & inclusion'' examines some of the policies, practices, and physical artifacts that have been used by planners, policymakers, developers, real estate brokers, community activists, and other urban actors in the United States to draw, erase, or redraw the lines that divide. The Arsenal inventories these weapons of exclusion and inclusion, describes how they have been used, and speculates about how they might be deployed (or retired) for the sake of more open cities in which more people have access to more places. With contributions from over fifty architects, planners, geographers, historians, and journalists, ''The arsenal'' offers a wide-ranging view of the forces that shape our cities.

The use of existing residential buildings scores not only with the charm of what has been handed down, be it a baroque villa, a 19th-century farmhouse, or a post-war bungalow, but actually also always with an excellent ecological balance. The extensive reworking, whether modernization, renovation or extension, is a widespread and thoroughly rewarding task for many architects. Since the initial situation is documented for each of the presented projects, the reader can clearly understand the redesign process.
