The contemporary workplace has derived from successive compression and decompression. First, there was the hierarchical Taylorist office. Then came the rational, well-lit and organised space with individual cubicles.

Summary:
The contemporary workplace has derived from successive compression and decompression. First, there was the hierarchical Taylorist office. Then came the rational, well-lit and organised space with individual cubicles. A return to the open landscape office came later, with free layouts shrouded in vegetation – the forerunner of the dematerialisation of the workplace. Today, we are in a far more fluid state that envisages the specialisation of space and brand expression: diversity and identity. The workplace should not only encompass tasks like individual and group work, but also those involving learning and socialising.

Summary:
Inside The Rainbow reprints for the first time in English a unique compendium of Soviet picture books from the 1920 and 1930s. In the dark and dangerous world of revolutionary Petrograd, a group of Russian poets and artists came together to create a new kind of book for children. They dreamed of endless possibilities in a new world where children and grown-ups alike would be free from the bitterness of ignorance. For a time, when children's publications still escaped the scourge of state censorship, their books became a last haven for learning, poetic irony, burlesque and laughter. In this book 250 examples of illustration and design are complemented by some translations of poems and stories as well as texts from the victims, criminals and witnesses to the Russian revolution.

Summary:
After two successive thematic issues, "Log 38" (Fall 2016) returns to its classic open form, bringing together myriad perspectives from architecture’s center and periphery. Cynthia Davidson’s expansive interview with New York architect Harry Cobb, of Pei Cobb Freed & Partners, illuminates Cobb’s 60-plus years in practice, as well as the history of modernism in America. Eve Blau explores the contexts that drove the 1968 Learning from Las Vegas studio at Yale, and Pier Vittorio Aureli and Maria Shéhérazade Giudici reevaluate the roots of modern domestic space. "Log 38" also features critical perspectives on the current moment in architecture, with reviews of OMA’s Fondaco dei Tedeschi, reflections on this year’s Venice Architecture Biennale, and reactions to Brexit from architects and educators affected by the vote, and even an imaginative look at the work of Sam Jacob Studio from 20 years in the future.

We live in a hyper-mediated world, drowning in an ocean of images and information. ''Conflict in my outlook'' gathers contemporary artworks and new texts that shed light on human experience in an era of ubiquitous networked technologies. From digital intimacies and the weaponization of social media to invisible power structures, clickwork, and the 'gig' economy, contributors seek a better future in the context of algorithmic racism, machine learning, and the new colonial frontiers of surveillance capitalism. The anthology, which is published on the occasion of a two-part exhibition series at UQ Art Museum, focuses on art as a means to explore the techno-politics that define our age.

Summary:
University buildings pose an interesting challenge for contemporary architecture. The seven liberal arts have long ago been joined by countless other faculties and departments. This branching out of knowledge requires a specialization of its structures which play a role in the transmission of learning and the creation of new knowledge. In addition, subjects of interconnectivity and sustainability on campuses step into focus together with the multimedia requirements imposed by modern universities. For both teaching and research it is essential to enable the preservation and access to the constantly growing knowledge of mankind. This volume presents about 70 recent projects from around the world by means of texts, photos and drawings.
