Summary:
At a time marked by the climate crisis and violent conflicts, an increasing number of architects are turning to impermanence and adaptability to show an alternate path to tackle the fragility and scarcity affecting our planet. Counter to the neoliberal appetite for abundance and the delirium of indefinite growth, this issue explores the relationship between nature and economy. It examines the social construction of scarcity, finding in certain communities signs of resilience and adaptative intelligence. Case studies in Thailand, India, Iran, Rwanda, Niger, Colombia, and Ecuador serve to illuminate this new path. Also in this issue, an interview with Mexican architect Fernanda Canales.

Summary:
Dutch landscape and garden architect Mien Ruys (1904–1999) was born into a horticultural family in Overijssel, where her father owned an internationally renowned plant nursery.

Pour le quinzième anniversaire de la revue, « Cura. » dédie son 42e numéro à la figure du monstre, un numéro spécial « horreur » consacré à l'exploration du rôle révolutionnaire des monstres dans la civilisation moderne. À travers une vaste série de figures monstrueuses, de personnages bestiaux, d'aberrations et de masques, d'hybrides humains et animaux, de cauchemars et de chimères, ce numéro examine l'intérêt des artistes pour les formes de vie étranges produites par l'imagination, ainsi que la déconstruction d'une idée fictive de la normalité et de ses catégorisations qui divisent. Dans un monde qui cache la monstruosité derrière l'« altérité », les monstres révèlent ainsi un univers dynamique, varié, multiforme et transformateur.

Summary:
This monographic issue examines recent work by Belgian architects Kersten Geers and David Van Severen and their Brussels-based firm, OFFICE, which was established in 2002 as a means of exploring the prospect of architecture within the contemporary culture and urban environment. Currently a team of about 40 architects, it has evolved a practical and pragmatic approach to design in which architecture becomes nothing less than a civic obligation. An overview of 25 projects, including a crematorium, dental clinic, and art gallery, is introduced by a conversation with Giovanna Borasi, director of the Canadian Centre for Architecture in Montreal, and the two founding architects.

Summary:
Made up of eight different muscles, Tongues are the focus of Safar’s forthcoming eighth issue. From speaking in tongues to translating them to tasting with them, the tongue is central to human connection, be it through language and communication, food and sustenance, or sex and intimacy. This eighth issue of Safar seeks to explore the tongue-in-cheek moments that get lost (and sometimes found) through translation; to map tastes and taste buds on the tip of the tongue; to chew over when and where to hold one’s tongue, and when not to; to consider slips of the tongue and tongue twisters; to visualize and engage with a lost mother tongue; and more.

Summary:
The climate crisis has meant a return to the principles of traditional construction and the use of passive systems, with the purpose of achieving maximum comfort with a minimum environmental impact using strategies such as solar orientation, form factor, or wind patterns. AV Monographs collects sixteen houses designed according to this bioclimatic approach to respond to a huge variety of situations, from the intense heat of the African coast to the heavy snowfall of northern Europe, via the tropical rain of Southeast Asia, the marked seasonality in some areas of South America or China, and the mild temperatures in Central America and the Mediterranean.

Summary:
Since they set up their studio in 2006 – a time marked by the impact of the financial crisis – Arquitectura-G has completed a considerable number of projects while continuing their research and dissemination work in the field. Almost two decades later, AV Monographs collects twenty works that take stock of the polyphonic creativity and international expansion of the studio: from exemplary interventions on existing structures to lucid new-build housing projects, via experimental spaces for retail or transformations of historical complexes. All this is accompanied by a foreword signed by Harquitectes, who propose an impressionistic analysis of their work; and an epilogue written by the architects themselves, in which they unravel the office’s internal work process.
