Summary:
Like a journey into the heart of urban solitude and its periphery, Serge Clément’s work draws the viewer into an intimate relationship with the image. As the images accumulate, they create an imaginary density of timeless fragments. For Clément, photography has always been closely related to the book, particularly along the idea that an image refers to other images. On(...)

Summary:
Like a journey into the heart of urban solitude and its periphery, Serge Clément’s work draws the viewer into an intimate relationship with the image. As the images accumulate, they create an imaginary density of timeless fragments. For Clément, photography has always been closely related to the book, particularly along the idea that an image refers to other images. On one hand, it signifies that an image is a leaky container with smoke, fog, streams and rivers, reflections, and streets running across the image. On the other, Serge Clément constantly questions the power of the photographic image to capture reality. A certain street, a certain perspective, this deserted place, the passers-by are not tied to a clearly identifiable world, but belong to the abstract universe of an essentially imaginary city. It is not important to know whether the place in question is Montreal or Tokyo, the viewer may rather lose himself between several places.

Since its founding in 2011, the Keller Gallery at MIT Architecture has set out to challenge the nature and limits of design discourse in an exhibition format. The gallery brings the spirit of debate, ambition, and design into the heart of the school. Each exhibition catalog compiles a combination of project images, opening photos, and commissioned texts. Together, the six compact publications touch upon the immediacy of the exhibition itself, as well as a consideration of the context and conversations that surround it. The 2013-2014 Volume includes catalogues for: - "Personal Space" by PostlerFerguson - "99 Marginal Street" by Landing Studio - "Space-Time 1964/2014" by Jorge-Otero Pailos with the MIT Edgerton Center and the MIT Museum - "Get to Work" by Room Studio featuring A:LOG - "New Massings for New Masses" by Milliøns: John J. May and Zeina Koreitem Essay contributors include: Andrew Atwood, Martha Buskirk, Kiel Moe, Andrei Pop, Laura Raskin, and Mechtild Widrich.

Summary:
East is an award winning architecture, landscape and urban design practice established in London since 1995. "We are interested in places, uses and the way they come about. By places we mean cities, spaces within them, buildings, and landscapes. Our work has come to be internationally recognised for a patient and innovative role in adjusting and improving the urban fabric and its uses. A careful understanding and documentation of places as they are found, their spatial relationships, colour, smell, materiality help our development and judgement of design." Illustrated with drawings and photographs, the 14 projects described in the book vary in many ways. Architecturally they may have little in common, but what they share is an engagement with their place, and demonstrate that our primary motivation as architects is not to design architecture, but to discover, prescribe and give shape to the need for it. With an introduction by Jonathan Sergison, the book includes essays by Kieran Long, Julian Lewis, Dann Jessen and Judith Losing. http://www.east.uk.com/

Summary:
Architectural Papers series is edited by the Josep Lluís Mateo Chair at the ETH Zurich since 2005. Covering the wide range of topics related to teaching and architectural culture in general, it is aimed at expanding the narrow boundaries of the discipline. Its fifth issue concentrates around the new conditions for architectural practice and around the new epistemologies that may inform it in the next future. That is, in the period after the financial bubble has collapsed and living and working conditions have significantly changed. Essays, studies and interviews, along with a selection of indicative projects, tackle the actual issues of growth and shrinking, economy and ideology, craftsmanship and social space in the city, materiality and sustainability in architecture. In a logical sequence, they depict the current reality of architecture. With contributions by Iñaki Ábalos, Solano Benitez, Alexander Brodsky, Isabel Concheiro, Frederick Cooper Llosa, Hans Ibelings, Krunoslav Ivanisin, Julio Martinez Calzon, Josep Lluís Mateo, Richard Sennett, Wang Shu and Ramias Steinemann.

Summary:
In this collection of essays Martha Rosler embarks on a broad inquiry into the economic and historical precedents for today’s soft ideology of creativity, with special focus on its elaborate retooling of class distinctions. In the creative city, the neutralization or incorporation of subcultural movements, the organic translation of the gritty into the quaint, and the professionalization of the artist combine with armies of eager freelancers and interns to constitute a new social sphere in which an elaborate retooling of traditional markers of difference has allowed class distinctions to be dissolved or willfully suppressed. The result is a handful of cities selected for revitalization rather than desertion, where artists in search of cheap rent become the avant-garde pioneers of gentrification. And it may be for this reason that, for Rosler, it becomes all the more necessary to locate the functioning of power within this new urban paradigm, to find a position from which to make it accountable to something other than its own logic.

Summary:
This volume explores how leading architects of the twentieth century incorporated climate-mediating strategies into their designs, and shows how regional approaches to climate adaptability were essential to the development of modern architecture. Focusing on the period surrounding World War II—before fossil-fuel powered air-conditioning became widely available—Daniel Barber brings to light a vibrant and dynamic architectural discussion involving design, materials, and shading systems as means of interior climate control. He looks at projects by well-known architects such as Richard Neutra, Le Corbusier, Lúcio Costa, Mies van der Rohe, and Skidmore, Owings, and Merrill, and the work of climate-focused architects such as MMM Roberto, Olgyay and Olgyay, and Cliff May. Drawing on the editorial projects of James Marston Fitch, Elizabeth Gordon, and others, he demonstrates how images and diagrams produced by architects helped conceptualize climate knowledge, alongside the work of meteorologists, physicists, engineers, and social scientists. Barber describes how this novel type of environmental media catalyzed new ways of thinking about climate and architectural design.
