Résumé:
The Bauhaus, the legendary school in Dessau, Germany, transformed architecture and design around the world. This book broke new ground when first published in 1991 by introducing psychoanalysis, geometry, early childhood education, and popular culture into the standard political history of the Bauhaus. "The ABC's of Triangle, Square, Circle" also introduced two young designers, Ellen Lupton and J. Abbott Miller, whose multidisciplinary approach changed the field of design writing and research. With a new preface by Lupton and Miller, this collection of visually and intellectually stimulating essays is a must-read for educators and students.

Résumé:
The eponymous catalogue for an exhibition by Swiss architects Gramazio & Kohler in collaboration with systems engineer Raffaello D'Andrea, shown at the Frac Centre in Orléans. The book presents a fascinating exploration of their perspectives and multidisciplinary interests, ranging from computational design and robots to material innovation, plus research on architecture, system design and autonomous robotic technologies. Through detailed diagrams and texts, it gives insight into the exhibitions realisation in which an architectural installation was constructed by flying robots and reveals radical new ways of both thinking about and materialising architecture.

Transcultural Cities uses a framework of transcultural placemaking, cross-disciplinary inquiry and transnational focus to examine a collection of case studies around the world, presented by a multidisciplinary group of scholars and activists in architecture, urban planning, urban studies, art, environmental psychology, geography, political science, and social work. The book addresses the intercultural exchanges as well as the cultural trans-formation that takes place in urban spaces. In doing so, it views cultures not in isolation from each other in today’s diverse urban environments, but as mutually influenced, constituted and transformed.

Résumé:
The Pocket Books series is an assemblage of small publications which compile theoretical texts by various architects or institutions in different collections. These writings reflect different areas of interest and performance in the architectural discourse. For its second edition, written and compiled by Federico Bucci, the series reflects on the multidisciplinary work of Luigi Moretti (1906–1973). He was the embodiment of the intellectual architect, capable of interweaving art and architecture, and his works are considered among the most original examples of Italian modernism. This book reveals the complex aspects of his theory on form and structure, space and time.

Résumé:
Boston's Big Dig was the most expensive urban public work in U.S. history. The city's elevated six-lane highway, called the Central Artery, and the two tunnels under Boston Harbor, were some of the most congested, accident-prone motorways in the United States. The city's solution, nicknamed The Big Dig, was to replace the elevated highway with a series of eight-to-ten-lane underground expressways. Public Works presents a series of 14 disarmingly modest, speculative interventions by the Boston-based MY Studio, a multidisciplinary design firm operating in the space between architecture, art and landscape.

Résumé:
"Goose Village," unveils the lost history of a vibrant neighbourhood decimated by urban development in the 1960s. This first edition chronicles the once-thriving Goose Village in Pointe-Saint-Charles, Montreal, and the lives of its displaced inhabitants. Portolese's comprehensive body of work, spanning four years of production and research, delves into the narrative of Goose Village. This multidisciplinary endeavour combines oral history interviews, portraiture, urban landscapes, and a forensic gaze into thousands of historical images housed at Les Archives de la Ville de Montréal. The result is a heartrending exposé of how short-sighted urban planning decisions devastated a close-knit community, forever altering the cultural and social fabric.

At a time when fundamentals of design education are being questioned and studios are being used as laboratories for everything ranging from design-build and fabrication practices to community service, material research, and multidisciplinary incubators, this volume of Catalyst positions the current pedagogy at the University of Virginia School of Architecture within an extended history of the school through an archival project that traces the lineages of its faculty. It considers design pedagogy through the lens of the formative experiences and agendas of the faculties of the Departments of Architecture and Landscape Architecture, examining their role in shaping the school’s direction, independent of top-down mandates and institutional agendas.
