Summary:
Archivio opens its third editorial cycle: four thematic issues, each curated by a Guest Editor with deep expertise, offering access to worlds where past, present, and future converge. The third issue, Archivio N°11, focuses on technology and is curated by Massimo Banzi, co-founder of Arduino, together with Cecilia Botta, technology historian and Head of Memories at Promemoria Group, the magazine's publisher.

Created using PETSCII, the character set of Commodore 8-bit computers, it evokes the visual language of technology in its formative years. Archivio N°11 maps the international landscape of technology archives, tracing the roots of the digital revolution and exploring the places where our technological past is preserved, along with the collectors and institutions that recognized its cultural value.

Summary:
En comité, nous nous sommes beaucoup demandé ce que nous attendions de ce dossier sur la roche. Car il allait de soi qu’il devait s’inscrire dans une perspective anti-extractiviste. Mais, en incorrigibles littéraires, nous ressentions la nécessité de construire cette réflexion commune en cherchant, en plus des discours à défaire, quels autres récits et quels autres rapports à la roche nous avions envie de cultiver, de répandre, de favoriser. Écrire un dossier anti-extractiviste, ça ne signifie pas uniquement s’exprimer contre la logique d’exploitation des sols; ça implique aussi de tailler une place à d’autres relations que nous souhaitons créer ou renouveler avec le minéral. Ce serait quoi, prendre soin de la roche avec nos mots, avec nos gestes de pensée et de création? Quels liens sont à creuser? Est-il possible d’en réparer certains? Lesquels? Ce n’est pas vrai que rien ne pousse sur les cailloux.

Summary:
When it comes to Jun Aoki’s projects related to art, regardless of the intended function, the architecture remains open to diverse uses, inviting relationships that have yet to be fully seen or defined. Aoki embraces ambiguity and contradictions, allowing for the coexistence of differing values and rhythms that each individual brings to the experience of art. The 25 featured projects include public art museums, galleries, exhibition designs, and artworks. Each transforms into a unique spatial experience depending on the art it hosts, the people who visit, and its moment in time. With new essays and commentary by Aoki, this is a glimpse of architecture’s potential to suggest a freer future.

The cradle-to-cradle principle envisions buildings returning to the natural cycle after use. In practice, however, most are only partially composed of natural or compostable materials.

Summary:
The cradle-to-cradle principle envisions buildings returning to the natural cycle after use. In practice, however, most are only partially composed of natural or compostable materials. One notable exception is Florian Nagler’s Garden House, winner of the Detail Award, which closely follows this principle. Another route is the reuse or refurbishment of components from demolished buildings. But this, too, is complex – components are often scarce and costly to extract and and make fit for new applications. To facilitate recycling, some structures are being designed for disassembly. Yet even timber joints fixed with screws can prove difficult to undo after years in place. A research group in Arles sees itself as a recycler of remnants, developing new materials from construction debris and agricultural waste: sunflower stalks become acoustic panels, while rice straw from cultivation is turned into insulation. The team also experiments with local resources: in nearby salt pans, salt crystallises on metal racks to form tiles, while algae are used to make lamps, vases, and wall finishes. Architecture made from rubble, clad in salt, rice, and seaweed – a compelling vision of the future. Perhaps the most promising path lies in combining these diverse strategies.

Summary:
No. 652 of ''a+u'' showcases 25 projects by Renzo Piano Building Workshop from 2010–2025, revealing how RPBW’s Genoa and Paris offices adapt to diverse urban contexts. Whether working in historic cities like London and Istanbul or creating new landmarks, RPBW emphasizes human experience through structural lightness and environmental integration. The solarpunk spirit that has distinguished RPBW over the years comes through in humanist projects like Uganda's Children's Surgical Hospital, combining rammed-earth construction with solar technology. Monumental institutions such as the cliff-like Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center in Athens demonstrate an analytical approach to site-specific challenges.
