Shohei Shigematsu, whose works include projects from educational facilities, art museums, and exhibition designs to high-rise commercial complexes, has been the lead at OMA New York since 2006.

Through a curated selection of images, this issue captures architecture that demonstrates how the rational box and soft form can coexist, as embodied in the contemporary public realm. A selection of 34 projects representing the architecture of both New York and Tokyo is expanded upon with essays by Shigematsu and others, plus two conversations with the architect.

Summary:
This issue highlights the work of adama-faiden, founded in Buenos Aires in 2005 by Sebastián Adamo and Marcelo Faiden. Nearly two decades of work is traced through 34 projects in chronological order. From small residential projects in their early years, the studio has transitioned into an increasingly diverse practice, including a high-rise in central Buenos Aires and social housing in Europe. Regardless of scale, what remains consistent in their work is a considered approach to urban environments and a sensitivity to airflow. Their designs often feature permeable facades and cohabitating plants, creating a soft, fluid connection between interior and exterior.

Summary:
There is no snow on Mount Fuji. Any hack will tell you the phase change is here, the restructuring of the world is underway. That would be a relief, like a broken fever. But they are wrong. We are still waiting. This period is merely the static on the skin, the rising pressure and building tension before the impending climax of a deluge. We live under a lavender sky, silver and green; this is the time of unsettled air, heavy with that metallic smell of the earth. Soon the wind will awake, driving the rain forward like a cloud of smoke. The tremendous powers by which our lives are encompassed are stirring. How can we prepare for this transformation? We interview professor Jonathan White on the future as a political idea. Artist Dozie Kanu presents a flyer for higher education, while Opioid Crisis Lookbook speculates on semiotics. Peter Saville reviews the mood with Jack Self, who reviews voice notes, moral killing, and the Star Trek universe. Isabelle Bucklow binge-watches tech demos. Satoshi Fujiwara captures law enforcement hardware. Ruba Al-Sweel reviews the non-commercial image, while Martina Rocca and Izzy Farmiloe review the production of culture. Carmen Winant documents the last safe abortion, Felix Mcnamara writes notes on minutiae, John Sunyer attends a run club, plus much more.

Summary:
Interroger l’émergence de nouvelles pratiques professionnelles et de nouveaux enEurope est l’objectif de ce troisième fascicule des Cahiers RAMAU. Le partage des rôles entre maîtres d’ouvrage, maîtres d’oeuvre et entreprises, entre secteurs publics et privés, entre décideurs, techniciens et usagers, dans la production architecturale et urbaine actuelle connaît de profondes mutations. Comment les architectes se positionnent-ils dans ce nouveau contexte ? Les analyses et expériences rassemblées rendent compte de l’éventail des pratiques qui se développent aussi bien en Autriche, au Danemark, en Grande-Bretagne, France et Portugal, de la conception de composants de construction à la gestion des projets urbains négociés avec les habitants. Le cas de la Grande-Bretagne qui fait référence en matière de partenariat public-privé et d’évolution des relations entre les architectes et leurs partenaires est très largement exposé. Ce numéro propose un regard croisé entre des praticiens relatant leurs expériences et positions professionnelles et des chercheurs tentant d’interpréter les changements structurels contemporains.
