Summary:
Hong Kong’s border with Shenzhen is dissolving. By 2047, the border will likely not exist. Integration with the Mainland will remove distinctions created by the "One Country Two Systems" policy. The uncertainty surrounding what will happen has created anxiety relating to law, identity, freedom of speech, and voting rights. Caught in this debate is the Frontier Closed Area, a 1951 undeveloped buffer zone of estuaries, fish farms, forests, villages and military posts. In contrast, Shenzhen, has exploded into a metropolis of 15 million plus. The book explores this unique border ecology. Design strategies inserted within this ecology promote alternate forms of development. The example widens the discourse on borders to raise critical issues that impact the contemporary city.

ROAM is an unconventional academic reader, looking at 'the Aesthetics of Mobility'. Under five themes - narrative, representation, glocalisation, telematics, velocity - ideas around what it is to 'roam' are explored, from theoritical texts to magazine style snippets of information. Against an architectural understanding of urban spaces and mobility. ROAM also engages with discourses from art, cultural studies, design and politics. In line with its unconventional approach, the texts in ROAM are designed to be read at different speeds, so that design projects are interspliced amongst essays and soundbites, provoking the reader with new views about our increasingly mobilised society.

Summary:
The midwestern city of Columbus, Indiana, is more than a mecca of modern architecture; it is an example of how design can help foster a remarkable community. The dozens of buildings and projects by legendary architects – from mid-century titans such as Eero Saarinen and I. M.

This book explores Columbus’s optimistic program of bold new architecture and landscapes, initiated by the legendary industrialist J. Irwin Miller and local leaders, and the generations-long quest to develop the ideal American city through design excellence.

Observatorium is a unique consortium of three artists that has developed a philosophy and a working procedure that aims to make the grey areas and interfaces of architecture, urban design, landscape architecture and art more productive. Instead of creating autonomous art in public space, the group uses the media of sculpture and installation to make functional facilities that are monumental, symbolic and meaningful. This publication is at once an overview and an outcome of their design philosophy, and is accompanied by photographs, drawings and narratives, along with a complete list of their works produced to date.

Summary:
"Decolonising the built environment: process, product, and pedagogy" provides an important and much-needed comprehensive overview of how decolonisation is shaping the built environment in theory, in practice, and as a process/project today. The contributors provide an inclusive and trans-national conversation between a diverse set of academics, design practitioners and thinkers, and activists. This book is structured around three thematic and practical categories: Part 1 studies decolonisation conceptually; Part 2 studies decolonisation as a process; and Part 3 studies the products of decolonisation as materialised in the form of buildings, urban design, planning, policy, and social practices.

With 16 chapters brimming with grand scales and detailed thought, this series probes the young Japanese architect's mind for architectural methods concerned with topical issues: residential and urban development that factors in ecosystems and the global environment, off-grid homes powered by solar energy, architecture and landscaping that restore soil health, and ecological design that plans for circulation of materials from production to disposal.

Summary:
When weather becomes part of the design of buildings, new affiliations between meteorology and architecture emerge. As the interaction with and use of energy and natural flows within cities and buildings becomes increasingly crucial to the future of urban design, questions regarding the appropriate formal and spatial expressions of these forces must also be addressed.(...)

As the interaction with and use of energy and natural flows within cities and buildings becomes increasingly crucial to the future of urban design, questions regarding the appropriate formal and spatial expressions of these forces must also be addressed. ROEWU, a collaboration between Stephen Roe and Chiafang Wu, combines the experiences each brings from the volatile weather inherent to their respective places of origin, Ireland and Taiwan. This book offers new perspectives as the intersections of climate and architecture are explored.
