Résumé:
Photographer Gerry Badger only brought out his camera on overcast days in Berlin between 2007 and 2011. His portrait of the citys back streets and dilapidated spaces is rough, full of refuse and graffiti, and almost completely devoid of human presence.

This series of images depicts the forgotten corners of a living city, full of history; a fact that has seemingly been banished outside the fringes of the frame. What is left is emptiness, broken architecture, neglected parks, vacant lots, discarded things all fading under a metallic, unfeeling sky.

They sought ways to reinvent how we live, from dependence on infrastructure and industry to another relationship: off-grid homes that generate solar power, gardens that harness the power of microbes in the soil, shared homes in vacant buildings, and construction using discarded materials. The wildness that survives the city enjoys fluctuation and overcomes inconvenience. This book introduces the collectives involved in these activities along with practices and resources.

Historically, we see the city as the cramped, crumbling core of development and culture, and the suburb as the vast outlying wasteland – convenient, but vacant. Contemporary urban design proves this wrong. In New SubUrbanisms, Judith De Jong explains the on going "flattening" of the American Metropolis, as suburbs are becoming more like their central cities – and cities more like their suburbs through significant changes in spatial and formal practice as well as demographic and cultural changes. These revisionist practices are exemplified in the emergence of hybrid sub/urban conditions such as parking practices, the residential densification of suburbia, hyper-programmed public spaces and inner city big-box retail, among others.

In the Dutch city of Almere, BouwEXPO Tiny Housing launched an open ideas competition in 2016. The winners built sixteen permanent and greatly varied houses at one location in the city, all of which are actually lived in today. The houses naturally serve as inspiration for small dwellings elsewhere, whether on vacant lots, as infill, on a roof, or in completely new neighbourhoods. This book offers an in-depth reportage on the entire design, funding, and building process of the awarded small homes.

Armed with a camera, spray paint, string and cardboard, the artist would produce one of his most significant photographic projects entitled Vandalism. In this visceral, black and white series of images Divola vandalised vacant homes with abstract constellations of graffiti-like marks, ritualistic configurations of string hooked to pins, and torn arrangements of card, before cataloguing the results. The project vigorously merged the documentary approach of forensic photography with staged interventions echoing performance, sculpture and installation art.

Erlacher had long been fascinated with the ways existing structures are modified to meet new transport needs, but a house wedged between two bridges in her native Vienna inspired a more extensive exploration of the leftover spaces. Erlacher traveled to China, Britain, and the Netherlands, capturing exquisite photographs of bridges, viaducts, and multistory highways, which focus specifically on the vacant and disused spaces and situations created by their construction. Beneath and between these structures, we find housing, parking, and storage, but also skate parks, tea houses, and food stalls in varying shades of legality.

Résumé:
All urban dwellers have seen them: vacant apartment blocks, blighted business districts, destitute streets, industrial wastelands. Exurban growth has led to shrinking cities, a perennial problem. Grappling with this change, both philosophically and practically, is the purpose of this illustrated collection of essays, a rich resource for the generation of architects, engineers, and urban planners who must face the decay. The contributions by a range of politicians, scholars, and planners arose out of the series of "Tatort Stadt" ("Work Place City") events, conferences, and exhibitions sponsored by the German government and the Bauhaus Dessau Foundation (the research and design center carrying forward the Bauhaus legacy). Exploring both current and proposed projects, these approaches recognize the need for structural change, acknowledging that urban redevelopment requires much more than demolition.

Michela Pasquali tells the gardens’ story and their development and evolution over the past thirty years, including the recent risk of their being demolished due to building speculation in the area. First created at the beginning of the 1970s, thanks to the initiative of a group of local residents, the Loisaida community gardens stand out as one of the most interesting examples of New York’s hidden green urban spaces.
