Summary:
Fifty years ago, architects imagined worlds to come. Today, many have ceded the future to market logic, treating global capitalism as inevitable and reality as fixed. This issue of Architectural Design argues that when collective imagination falters, the utopian impulse returns?not as a blueprint for perfection, but as a vital means of reopening what can still be conceived and made. As planetary computation, climate instability and synthetic cognition converge, utopia becomes a tool for speculative world?building: a way to design new systems, realities and relationalities with the more-than-human. Contributors navigate this shifting terrain from a range of vantages?from those who embrace technological acceleration as an instrument of renewal to others whose address to futurity is aimed at resisting the exhausted capitalist logics of the present.

Summary:
This publication looks closely on transforming existing real estate by promoting creative clusters, starting with specific architectures that are examined using an open-minded approach. What are the economic, political and design mechanisms used to build and legitimise them? What city concept is designed and built in these spaces? Can we identify recurrent features, general issues, and compositional orders and logic? The book discusses creative clusters as fertile ground for research and action involving the architectural and urban project and outlines several distinctive traits of professional and design practices in China in the last decade. In particular, the book focus on three recurrent methods used by architectural projects to reconfigure space—Collecting icons, Shifting scale, Bounding borders.
