Résumé:
Cee Cee is Berlin’s most widely read online medium. Launched as a newsletter for friends in 2011, it covers and comments on the capital’s perpetually changing urban landscape and the multifaceted goings-on in the culture and restaurant scenes. The selection of recommendations is carefully vetted and has become an indispensable guide for Berlin lovers in Germany and abroad, for expats and locals. Working with a small team of photographers and authors, the people behind Cee Cee, Sven Hausherr and Nina Trippel, have now compiled a book presenting over two hundred of the most exciting features. The mix is diverse, subjective and authentic: secret bars and hidden art collections, idiosyncratic cafés and extravagant restaurants, eccentric concept stores and native originals. Numerous illustrations and full-page views show the Berlin of today. Recommendations, cross-references, guest columns by fashion designers and musicians, and insider’s advice sourced from the Cee Cee community make this book a treasure trove of information for explorers. A Berlin book for Berlin visitors, Berlin lovers, Berlin residents, and future Berliners.

Résumé:
Curated by landscape architect Dirk Sijmons, IABR 2014 claims the world’s environmental problems can only be resolved by addressing the problems of the city. Seeking to redefine how we deal with urban challenges by analysing our relationship with nature, it sees the city as an integral part of the urban landscape, a complex system that has become our natural environment. This approach opens possibilities to develop spatial interventions that make use of its metabolism. The work of three IABR project studios is featured, presented alongside essays and information about conferences, lectures and events.

Résumé:
Michael Cho began creating drawings of the back alleys near his Toronto home in 2008. With this book, he has amassed a collection that speaks to the beauty of the urban landscape: sometimes grittily citified, sometimes unexpectedly pastoral, and always bewitching. With each season's change, different color schemes become dominant, and a whole range of moods and moments are articulated. Cho lets the reader visit his city as a virtual flaneur, lingering equally over dilapidated sheds and well-groomed gardens in a dazzling tribute to the urban environs.

Résumé:
Forced to thrust skywards by the constraints of its position on a narrow strip of land between the sea and high mountains, Hong Kong has developed a breath-taking skyline. One of the most densely populated areas in the world, it has a greater number of high-rise structures than any other major international city: more than 2,300 buildings at over 100 metres high – and more are completed almost daily. The originally wild and now largely domesticated topography of the island seems exhausted, fully restricted and there is no more land to be taken from the sea. Mainly European and American architects have played a role in creating the buildings of Hong Kong, but local architects maintain their hold with confidence on this hotly contested market. This guide to architecture presents 100 characteristic buildings that define the urban landscape of the former British Crown Colony.

Résumé:
This book on urban design extends and develops the widely accepted 'compact city' solution. It provides a design proposal for a new kind of sustainable urban landscape: Urban Agriculture. 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.
