Résumé:
In the middle of the renowned financial and shopping district of Hong Kong lies Exchange Square. The name underlines not only the exchange of monetary value but also the people’s mobility: each Sunday, tens of thousands of female domestic workers from South and Southeast Asia reclaim the public space, here and in the surrounding streets and squares. The artist Moira Zoitl has concerned herself with these women’s living and working conditions and with their everyday life and activism. EXCHANGE SQUARE presents artistic and collaborative projects, complemented by analytical texts and interviews about the forms of and the reasons for globalized job migration.

Résumé:
"Typology", volume 2 of the new series Christ & Gantenbein Review, presents more than 150 buildings located in Rome, New York, Hong Kong and Buenos Aires that have been analysed by the chair of Emanuel Christ and Christoph Gantenbein at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich. This selective and subjective inventory of metropolitan and essentially anonymous 20th-century building production provides a basis for urban project creation. In this new book, the buildings are documented with floor plans, axonometric projections, recent photographs and key information. The theoretical essay by Emanuel Christ and Christoph Gantenbein and four texts by other authors explain the interactions between the contexts, especially the governing urban rule sets and the buildings, and show the potential for the design of a contemporary urban architecture.
