Résumé:
The international touring exhibition "Die gute Form" was conceived by MAx Bill on behalf of the Swiss Werkbund SWB and was shown for the first time in 1949 at the Basel Mustermesse trade fair.

The show caused some upset in Switzerland and fueled heated debates abroad. But it also exerted a wide-reaching influence-for example, on the way in which consumer goods were perceived.

Résumé:
C3 442 presents nine projects from Korea and abroad that reveal how architecture engages landscape, memory, materiality, and urban transformation. The issue explores architecture’s capacity to respond to natural systems, preserve cultural narratives, and generate meaningful spatial experiences. Among other projects, the Brumadinho Memorial examine vernacular craft, material expression, and collective remembrance. In K-Projects, REST by Pezo von Ellrichshausen, Cultural Center Hodu, and Intaglio investigate architecture’s relationship with topography through restraint, preservation, and spatial depth. The Urban Gaps, Small Buildings section highlights three compact interventions that transform challenging sites into distinctive urban experiences, demonstrating the enduring potential of small-scale architecture.

Résumé:
Toronto has been called the Estonian capital abroad, because it is where the largest and most active community of Estonian immigrants was located. Revolutionary in its architecture and social aims, modernism’s post-war emergence was at odds with the cautious, evolutionary nature of Canadian culture. But in the context of growing internationalism, a large number of Estonians began to find success in private practice, influencing Toronto’s cultural landscape and new ideas in architectural discourse. The largely untold story of their remarkable impact on the city and their contribution to an emerging Canadian identity has driven the research presented in this volume.
