Résumé:
In 2018 Urbanarium held an international design competition to develop and present exciting options for addressing Metro Vancouver’s unprecedented housing affordability crisis and social health challenges with outstanding design and social innovation. This document contains both the insight and policy recommendations gathered from the various competition entries for adding innovative density to existing single-family zones. Included are the winning projects located in one of four sites in Vancouver, Port Coquitlam, Burnaby and Surrey. Results from this competition inform the “Policy Impact Proposal,” suggesting five small shifts in current zoning policy that can contribute to housing affordability and vibrancy in communities, while maintaining existing character.

Résumé:
"Architecture of invention" explores the experimental side of architecture through an architecture of books. It brings together ten experimental bibliographies conceived as a dialogue between expanded, spatial art and a critical, relational architecture that reflects on its own status. An intertextual and generative framework structures the project, producing narratives and cross-references among books and publications that are not necessarily contemporaneous or disciplinary. The ordering maps multiple cultural trajectories along a non-linear timeline marked by epochal leaps, ranging from avant-garde architecture to conceptual, radical, experimental and hardcore architecture. These constellations address themes such as construction and deconstruction, image and media, the body, the city, crisis, and critical practice.

Résumé:
Ecological crisis has driven contemporary artists to engage with waste in its most non-biodegradable forms: plastics, e-waste, toxic waste, garbage hermetically sealed in landfills. In this provocative and original book, Amanda Boetzkes links the increasing visualization of waste in contemporary art to the rise of the global oil economy and the emergence of ecological(...)

Résumé:
Ecological crisis has driven contemporary artists to engage with waste in its most non-biodegradable forms: plastics, e-waste, toxic waste, garbage hermetically sealed in landfills. In this provocative and original book, Amanda Boetzkes links the increasing visualization of waste in contemporary art to the rise of the global oil economy and the emergence of ecological thinking. Often, when art is analyzed in relation to the political, scientific, or ecological climate, it is considered merely illustrative. Boetzkes argues that art is constitutive of an ecological consciousness, not simply an extension of it. The visual culture of waste is central to the study of the ecological condition.

Aside from the health crisis presented by the global pandemic, the economic catastrophe deepened peoples’ suffering and uncertainty in a tense climate of political polarisation. In his introduction, editor Luis Fernández-Galiano analyses the year’s main architectural events and key topical issues in a chronicle of four seasons. The yearbook presents a selection of 24 buildings that reflect the discipline’s current panorama in Spain, categorised as destinations, industrial spaces, cultural or social projects, edifices for education, and collective alternatives. Other features reflect on a year like no other, but with hope for the future.

Additionally, ‘Bargains to Valuables’ illuminates the possibilities for delivering quality architecture within a limited budget. Included are several low-cost ‘crisis’ projects like Casa Never Never Land in Ibiza (ES) by Andrés Jaque Architects and the prefab Mima House, designed to be fast-produced, light and flexible. Rounding out this issue is an interview with Mumbai-based Malik Architecture, plus an overview of their work.

Résumé:
Though scientific knowledge corresponds to only one of the many possible modes of existence Latour describes, an unrealistic vision of science has become the arbiter of reality and truth, seducing us into judging all values by a single standard. Latour implores us to recover other modes of existence in order to do justice to the plurality of truth conditions that Moderns have discovered throughout their history. This systematic effort of building a new philosophical anthropology presents a completely different view of what Moderns have been, and provides a new basis for opening diplomatic encounters with other societies at a time when all societies are coping with ecological crisis.

Résumé:
In the late 2000s human society entered a new urban epoch in which the majority of human beings live in cities. Whilst the city has historically been viewed as the foundation of democracy and citizenship, the geo-political spaces of modern cities are widely misunderstood despite their key role in shaping contemporary global society. How and why have cities become the command centres of the world economy? Does globalization menace cities as we know them? Are cities able to exercise democratic control and strategic choice when multinational corporate competition increasingly limits the importance of place? The Rise of Cities offers intriguing responses to these questions by analyzing how cities coalesce, develop and thrive, and how they can remake themselves for better for worse. Examining key issues such as the parasitic relationships cities have with Nature, the webs of trade and immigration they rely on to survive, and the spatial structure of the contemporary metropolis, the contributors develop a startling outline of cities in crisis and demonstrate why the State has failed, and must fail, to end the urban crisis. These themes are explored through a variety of concrete, real-world examples of the challenges of urban politics: metropolitan governance, urban redevelopment policy, housing problems, grass roots activism and urban planning. In the background looms the spectre of neo-liberal globalization, with the development of influential world cities related to the emergence of modern telecommunications, the growth of multinational corporations and the generation of a world economy with an increased movement of cultural symbols and artifacts across national borders.
