Résumé:
Each volume analyses the construction process from the first design idea to the call for bids, covering the fundamental design principles and concrete details. The series title, Scale, signifies that the perfect detail is the result of a process through various levels of conception and design, from the abstract to the particular. Although the focus is on communicating hands-on constructional know-how, Scale’s innovative presentation does not just simply show solutions, but demonstrates how to develop them. Each volume presents essential information for design and implementation, from the first sketches to details of connectors in a scale of 1:10. Consistency in the plans and drawings, clear hierarchies in the headings and structure, and a clear, easily readable layout with helpful captions simplify the search for specific information, and make Scale volumes ideal for quick, targeted consultation.

Résumé:
Receive a free copy of the third issue of AMag PT, a new series exclusively dedicated to Portuguese architecture, together with the purchase of AMag 32. Issue 32 features eighteen works by three French studios located in three cities – two collectives and one singular office – which have both essentially and formally different approaches, intervention contexts, and languages. Atelier Ordinaire develops its small-scale projects using vernacular knowledge and mainly natural, local materials. Atelier EGR focuses on large-scale projects that often entail social impact and collective use. Paris-based architect Jean-Christophe Quinton primarily seeks opportunities to make a qualitative contribution through his work. Depending on the context, scale, and function, this can shift between an individual or a collective point of view. Issue 03 PT features João Mendes Ribeiro, an architecture practice based in Coimbra (PT).

Résumé:
Hermann Czech gained recognition in Europe in the 1970s with projects based on a strategy of continuation and convention instead of contrast. His work includes homes, hotels, schools, and urban planning, as well as small-scale interventions and exhibition design. In rejecting facile connections between theory and practice, he developed a multidimensional, critical and early postmodern position amid a climate of reformation and avant-gardism. Guest-edited by Christian Kühn of Technische Universität Wien, this issue explores the many facets of Czech’s architectural thought and practice through works ranging from furniture design to urban-scale infrastructure.

Résumé:
Helle Juul and Flemming Frost have been busy contributing assignment solutions from dialogue-based consultancy to concrete planning, designing and realization of architecture. The signature of their work is the discussion about context and scale with respect to urban time and space. Juul & Frost manifest their professional conceptual foundation through a philosophical and theoretical approach to architecture. There is a focus on the architectonic idea, which is consistently pursued and tested throughout the entire course of the project. The origin of their work was established through the editorial responsibilities for the Danish journal of architecture, SKALA, and the running of an architectural gallery, also known as SKALA, at the end of the nineteen-eighties. In the nineteen-nineties, Juul & Frost continued working as curators of large scale urban exhibitions, symposia and workshops known as SKAZKI Architecture Forum.Comprehensively unified planning and the contextual angle stand as indispensable points of reference for Juul & Frost, regardless of the assignment's scale.
