Trespassing means physically to enter without permission, but also metaphorically, to subvert and ignore the rules and norms of the city. To trespass is to critique the concept of ownership, the idea that we must pay, obey, or ask permission to occupy urban space. / L’intrusion illégale va à l’encontre(...)

The publication documents research, fieldwork, and newly commissioned projects by architects, artists, and practitioners who engaged with farmers, craftspeople, and residents of Al Ahsa. Through essays, images, oral histories, and archival material, it reflects on the shifting relationship between land, water, and community in a landscape transformed by modernization and urban expansion.

The Tower of London is an urban castle unique in Europe, St Paul’s is one of the world’s greatest domed cathedrals, and the squares and crescents of the West End inspired Haussmann’s Paris. Private ownership has shaped the city, and architects have served a wide variety of clients. London’s Classical era produced an elegant townscape between 1600 and 1830, but medieval, Tudor, and Victorian London were a potpourri of buildings large and small, each making its own design statement. "In London : an architectural history", the author takes the reader through two thousand years of architecture from the sublime to the mundane.

Summary:
What might be considered the research output of a walking practice? An important caveat to this would be to ask where and when the research occurs in relation to the walk, the walking, and the walkers. Does the walk activate our senses, or do our senses demand that we walk? Since walking involves encounters with various objects and subjects, how might it help us emphasise(...)

Does the walk activate our senses, or do our senses demand that we walk? Since walking involves encounters with various objects and subjects, how might it help us emphasise our connection to the more-than-human world? In addition, walking reveals different entry points to a city. Could walking provide a path toward more socially just urban spaces and commons? With an introduction by design critic and educator Alice Twemlow and urbanist and researcher Tânia A. Cardoso. Published in collaboration with Soapbox Journal.

How can architecture make a contribution to achieving a paradigm shift? Can architecture not only be designed to be removable and recyclable, but to be additionally green as well? Can architecture also be an ecological system? What is blue-green architecture? Architects face the demand to fully exploit unused potential and find ways to use plants as tools for design. This is both the case in the development of spaces as well as urban environments, but particularly on buildings themselves. "Green facades" provides architects with the necessary specialist knowledge to competently deal with the living architecture on the building envelope.

The international practice, which is involved in architectural, urban, and product design – as well as branding – is known for its experimental and interdisciplinary designs as well as for its strong social commitment. The publication will document only projects characteristic of this social responsibility – it portrays architecture as an active tool for driving, in a global context, the development of places worth living in. One key project is the Solar Kiosk developed in 2012, a high-output, solar-based unit which is already used by many communities in Sub-Saharan Africa to secure their power supply.

In meandering, impressionistic style, and drawing on their favorite writers, such as Johann Peter Hebel, Stendhal, Nabokov, and T. S. Eliot, their exchanges explore how history, time, and temporalities reverberate across Zumthor’s oeuvre. Looking back, Zumthor ponders on how a feeling of history has informed his attempts at emotional reconstruction by means of building, from architectural interventions in dramatic landscapes to his design for the redevelopment of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, which conceived the building on a suitably grand urban scale.

Summary:
Space, place and territory are concepts that lie at the core of geography and urban planning, environmental studies and sociology. Although space, place and territory are indeed polysemic and polemic, they have particular characteristics that distinguish them from each other. They are interdependent but not interchangeable, and the differences between them explain how we simultaneously perceive, conceive and design multiple spatialities. After drawing the conceptual framework of space, place and territory, the book explores how we sense space in the most visceral ways, and how the overlay of meanings attached to the sensorial characteristics of space change the way we perceive it – smell, spatial experiences using electroence phalography, and the changing meaning of darkness are discussed.
