Summary:
"Verb - conditioning" investigates the potential of architectural signification. As our ability to control the production of form and the creation of environments parallels that of natural processes, architecture is not only conceived as a platform for the development of human activity, but more and more as its generator and possibly also as its limiting framework. As in other industries ranging from computer applications to car manufacturing, mass-customized theming impregnates the way buildings are conceived and used. If this trend is inevitably linked to commercial success, what are the potentials for the discipline?

The inner courtyard of a Moroccan house promises refuge from the bustle of the outside world, while remaining in touch with nature. Reached by a dark and winding passage, the courtyard is the physical and spiritual centre of the house. Green vegetation, flowering plants (in the garden-like Riads), and fountains fed by narrow channels of flowing water provide a cool, shaded enclosure. Light from above combines to create a serene and sheltering atmosphere, a peaceful paradise. A venerable tradition, still very much alive. Werner Blaser has captured this marvellous architecture in duotone photos.

These overlapping rates of change in the Earth system—some fast, some slow—demand a poly-temporal worldview, one that Bjornerud calls “timefulness.” She explains why timefulness is vital in the Anthropocene, this human epoch of accelerating planetary change, and proposes sensible solutions for building a more time-literate society.
