Summary:
HK Lab 2 picks up where HK Lab left off, and extends it. It brings together artists projects and a number of theoretical and critical viewpoints on Hong Kong interior spaces. The changing nature of urban experience and inhabitation calls for new critical paradigms and interdisciplinary approaches. It is perhaps time to move on and explore the concept of the city and its urban practices, not from visual, panoptic constructions, but from opaque, poetic, lived and embodied experiences of the city.

Common to(...)

Rooms You May Have Missed reclaims the significance of inhabitation and is for that reason a collection of domestic spaces—entry porticos, kitchens, bedrooms, closets, dining rooms, courtyards, gardens, vestibules, living rooms, offices, dens and washrooms—as reinvented in the work of two very different architects: Umberto Riva in Milan and Bijoy Jain in Mumbai. Common to their practices is a genuine concern for the details that support living in and our common rituals of waking, bathing, eating, entertaining and sleeping.

Summary:
In Auditions, Rob Stone proposes a new and transformative view of architecture and sound. He offers a radical rethinking of the inhabitation of architectural space in terms of its acoustic dimensions, presenting a concept of aurality as an active, speculative, yet conditional understanding of the complexity of social spaces. The aural architectures he discusses are(...)

Summary:
In Auditions, Rob Stone proposes a new and transformative view of architecture and sound. He offers a radical rethinking of the inhabitation of architectural space in terms of its acoustic dimensions, presenting a concept of aurality as an active, speculative, yet conditional understanding of the complexity of social spaces. The aural architectures he discusses are assembled from elements of architecture and music -- including works by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and John Cage -- but also from imagined spaces and other kinds of less obviously musical sounds.

Beginning with Jules Verne's Captain Nemo—an undersea Renaissance man with a library of 12,000 volumes on his submarine—and proceeding through aquariums, undersea photography, artificial seas on land, nuclear-powered submarines, undersea film epics, giant squid, and NASA satellites, Firebrace examines the undersea as a zone created by exploration and invention. Throughout, the history of undersea life is accompanied by an imagined undersea, envisioned by cultural figures ranging from Verne and Herman Melville to Orson Welles and Jimi Hendrix.

Summary:
This illustrated catalogue presents the work of @Lab, a research laboratory based in Halifax, Canada. This group has created crafted textiles transformed with electronics, in an intellectually chanllenging proposition to make spaces respond to human inhabitation. The reader will discover a wealth of forms, patterns, colours, and textures, and learn how textiles can be activated by electronics to light up, change their space or acoustic qualities. This work extends contemporary research in wearable electronics to an architectural scale, in the design of an animated architecture that moves and earns.
