Summary:
Hungarian-born French architect Yona Friedman is one of the most fascinating architectural theorists of our time. Gaining early recognition for his Manifesto de l’Architecture Mobile, he is best-known for his sketches of the Ville Spatiale, or Spatial City, which applied the core concepts of the manifesto to create mutable “superstructures” over existing cities. The Spatial City represents an important thread running throughout Friedman’s work: He has always sought to provide people with the structures within which to construct and reconstruct their own environment, be it within the slums of the Third World or modern Western cities.

Summary:
''Entangled Landscapes'' is an independent print publication dedicated to telling regional food stories - stories about the many entangled and regenerative efforts, visions, and practices that all co-exist within the realm of food and sustainability. All in the context of one specific region at a time. This first volume is dedicated to the Abruzzo region, Italy : '' 'Forte e gentile' best defines Abruzzo. Translating to 'strong and gentle', these two little words juxtapose the tenacity and tenderness of the region's vast and varied ecosystems, along with the people who have been shaped by it. Within this duality to be two very different things at once, both pastoral and coastal, Abruzzo has left us completely entranced, ultimately inspiring our first edition of 'Entangled Landscapes'.''
