Ephemeral urbanism
$72.00
(available to order)
Summary:
The scale and patterns of urbanization today challenges the notion of permanence as the default condition for cities. Rubrics like informality have meanwhile become counter-productive, as they also implicitly aspire to create new processes in imagining permanence. Does permanence, as the sole instrument in urban imaginaries, really matter? For the over 700 million(...)

Summary:
The scale and patterns of urbanization today challenges the notion of permanence as the default condition for cities. Rubrics like informality have meanwhile become counter-productive, as they also implicitly aspire to create new processes in imagining permanence. Does permanence, as the sole instrument in urban imaginaries, really matter? For the over 700 million people represented in this research, stability is a luxury! Permanence is not an affordable condition and does not really affect their daily existence. What does this then mean for architecture and the city?

Urbanism without effort
$22.95
(available to order)
Summary:
In ''Urbanism Without Effort,'' Chuck Wolfe argues that 'unplanned' places can often teach us more about great placemaking than planned ones. From impromptu movie nights in a Seattle alley to the adapted reuse of Diocletian's Palace in Split, Croatia, Wolfe searches for the 'first principles' of what makes humans feel happy and safe amid the hustle and bustle of urban(...)

Summary:
In ''Urbanism Without Effort,'' Chuck Wolfe argues that 'unplanned' places can often teach us more about great placemaking than planned ones. From impromptu movie nights in a Seattle alley to the adapted reuse of Diocletian's Palace in Split, Croatia, Wolfe searches for the 'first principles' of what makes humans feel happy and safe amid the hustle and bustle of urban life. He highlights the common elements of cities around the world that spontaneously bring people together: being inherently walkable, factors that contribute to safety at night, the importance of intersections and corners, and more. In this age of skyrocketing metropolitan growth, he argues, looking to the past might be our best approach to creating the urban future we dream about.
