Based on his experiences teaching, researching and practicing in India, Henrik Valeur discusses some of the problems related to the urban transition of India, including air pollution, contamination and depletion of fresh water resources, its precarious food situation, the lack of proper housing, and various environmental and human health problems related to motorized transportation. He proposes a number of possible solutions, including the use of plants and natural ventilation to create clean indoor air, the revitalisation of an existing system of water canals, the creation of vertical kitchen gardens, a strategy for making an entire neighbourhood car-free and a design for self-designed, low-cost housing.

It is a true manual--in format and content--featuring design solutions that expand access to education, food, health care and affordable housing; increase social and economic inclusion; offer improved alternative transportation options, and provide a balanced approach to land use between the built and natural environments. Cooper Hewitt Curator Cynthia E. Smith traveled to post-industrial cities, urban areas impacted by natural disasters, sprawling cities, places of persistent poverty and major metropolitan regions. Her research yielded nearly 400 potential projects from over 30 states and three indigenous nations (Navajo, Lakota, Pueblo).

By growing food within an urban rather than exclusively rural environment, urban agriculture would reduce the need for industrialized production, packaging and transportation of foodstuffs to the city dwelling consumers. The revolutionary and innovative concepts put forth in this book have potential to shape the future of our cities quality of life within them. Urban design is shown in practice through international case studies and the arguments presented are supported by quantified economic, environmental and social justifications.

Nowadays it is hard to hold on to the distinction between landscape and city – the whole planet has become urban. This raises new questions. How can cities defend themselves against climate change? How can you guarantee the supply of drinking water in cities with tens of millions of residents? What can be done about smog choking metropoles? Is food security possible if there is less and less fertile farmland? Rooted City investigates these questions by means of an essay and examples of thirty European cities.

Résumé:
We may encounter different types of packaging everyday, but how many of us truly appreciate the art of packaging? From food packaging to beverage containers, tissue boxes to CD covers, packaging is hard to be missed in our daily lives. Yet not many of us see packaging as a form of art. Are we taking it for granted because it is around us at all times? Or perhaps we see it simply as a marketing tool to sell products? When was the last time you were excited by the packaging of a product? Did it persuade you to buy the product? Packaging is not only a powerful selling tool, it is also an effective method of communication that can stimulate the viewers’ senses. Good packaging can break through the language barrier and can stand the test of time. Like the three previous books in the series, the fourth book ‘It’s a matter of Packaging’ showcases some of the most creative and interesting work produced by designers from all over the world. The book is divided into three main sections: Visual, Touch and Idea, featuring work from almost sixty designers/ companies around the globe. The work ranges from shopping bags to music, food to beverages, books to catalogues, toys to fashion. There are interviews from three established packaging designers, Giannis Kouroudis from K2 design, Sayuri Shoji from Sayuri Studio and Tom Lancaster from Stylo Design. With the diverse collection of work, this book will arouse your senses, inspire your mind and encourage you to appreciate the art of packaging.

Résumé:
The positive effects of urban green spaces are well-known, ranging from the promotion of health, support of biodiversity to climate regulation. However, the practical implementation of urban landscapes is less discussed. How can we make these spaces functional, economically feasible and inclusive, especially as cities become more diverse? The publication explores strategies to reconcile the various demands, such as food production, resilience and nature conservation. Indeed, urban landscapes have to be restorative, ecological and aesthetically pleasing at the same time. This is a particular challenge in high-density cities like Singapore, Seoul or New York where space is a scarce commodity. The continuing growth of the worldwide urban population imbues the topic with a special urgency.

Through research at the intersections of architecture, biology and technology, IDAS (Institute for Design and Architectural Strategies) explores this topic with the aim of transferring the knowledge gained to the design of buildings. This book documents the projects, ideas and experiences shared by 33 international experts at symposia held at TU Braunschweig. Their critical reflections advance the awareness and expertise needed to develop a nature-based urban architecture.
