The third volume in the series of urban readers centres around the term synergy and uses the internet as an artificial urban space connecting the makers and the contributors. This issue is team work. People who live in different cities, countries, and even continents work together without meeting in person. Synergies exist when different elements interact and produce a result that any individual part could not achieve alone. This book, as a combined whole aims at supporting the assumption that the generated synergy is more than just the sum of its parts.

Ouvrant sur une série de constructions sphériques, comme s'il s'agissait du chantier des mondes, pour se conclure sur l’image d’un bunker renversé, c’est à une longue divagation, une sorte de mélopée hypnotique avec ses récurrences et ses variantes, ses répétitions et ses ruptures, ses harmonies et ses dissonances que ce livre vous invite. Plus qu’un ouvrage sur l’architecture ou la photographie, Atlas of Forms est d’abord un éloge de la diversité, de toutes les diversités. / Within its 256 pages, are nearly 1500 photographs patiently collected from the Internet and classified according to the rudimentary criteria of geometry (circle, square, triangle, polygon) and their current state (construction site, completed, abandoned or in ruins). These categories mix and mingle without interruption. Opening with a series of spherical structures, like small worlds under construction, and concluding with an image of an overturned bunker, this book proposes a long meandering, a sort of hypnotic chant with its recurrences and variants, its repetitions and ruptures, its harmonies and dissonances. More than a volume on architecture or photography, "Atlas of Forms" is primarily an elegy to diversity, every forms of diversity.

Drawing on over a decade of fieldwork and interviews, as well as internet ethnography, media analysis, and case studies,''In visible presence'' offers a rich account of the role of family photography in creating communities of affect, enabling nostalgic longings, and processing memories of suffering, violence, and hardship.

The success rate of Jencks' forecasts and his method of combining expert prediction with structural analysis make this book an important contribution to the art of conjecture. Not only did he predict a series of innovations that have changed the world, such as the Internet, but he identified six main architectural traditions that continuously transform over time. This provides a method of gauging what are likely to be the future movements in architecture, a useful and fascinating tool for speculation.

Summary:
No other region of the world currently has such a high concentration of top-quality graphic design as Switzerland. Traditionally understated, Swiss design is now creating an international sensation as young designers successfully combine radical approaches to design with unerring lightness of touch, craftsmanship and attention to detail. Their use of forms is often reduced, which also meets the standards for use on the Internet and enhances the international reputation of Swiss design. "Benzin" reviews the work of the most talented of the younger generation of Swiss designers. The book strikingly shows how local scenes can shape developments in design despite globalisation.
