Summary:
The title is open to interpretation but it’s clear that the subject of the future of architecture is intoxicating. The field is full of tensions-between regionalism and globalism, virtuality and reality, functionality and aestheticism. "Architecture rausch" opens discussion on architectural training in this volatile time, and who better to articulate those challenges (as well as to challenge the limits of the profession) than the students who will face them in the 21st century? The book presents works by students from a studio at Technische Universität Berlin (TU Berlin), Germany’s largest science and engineering school. Among the editors are faculty members whose work includes the Gallery for Contemporary Art Leipzig and projects with Daniel Libeskind.

Summary:
This volume examines one year of research and pedagogy at the University of Virginia School of Architecture, engaged in the conditions of the built environment, relative to 3 states of Flux, Stasis and Crisis. The questions we ask are: What is the impact of design on the forces that shape our contemporary reality? To what extent do contingencies of time and place impact our practice, and in return how effective is our response in re-shaping the same contingencies?

Summary:
Dedicated to the work of Portuguese architect Ricardo Bak Gordon, this issue reviews his career from 2008 to the present day through a selection of 17 projects, documented with plans, photographs and construction details. The selection includes emblematic projects such as the D. Dinis Secondary School in Lisbon and the García da Orta Secondary School in Porto, the National Museum of Carriages (in collaboration with Paulo Mendes da Rocha) and various detached houses that demonstrate his sensitivity to the domestic scale. Each project demonstrates his search for a timeless architecture based on fundamental values such as scale, proportion, light and materiality.
