Résumé:
Figure majeure et originale des landscape studies anglo-saxonnes, Jackson (1911-1996), fut successivement touriste-reporter un Europe, romancier, cow-boy, officier de renseignement, ranchero, éditeur, et visiting professor dans quelques-unes des plus grandes universités américaines. Les nombreux essais qu'il a consacrés à la lecture des paysages occidentaux et a leurs mutations conjuguent une observation de première main avec une culture historique exceptionnelle et une grande indépendance d'esprit qui s'exprime dans une prose souple et maîtrisée. Dans la Nécessité des Ruines, l'un de ses recueils les plus aboutis, ce précurseur de l'enseignement du paysage livre une sorte de testament : de la balade considérée comme un des beaux-arts.

Résumé:
"Other Russias" is the first collection of graphic journalism by artist and activist Victoria Lomasko. A fixture at Moscow's protests and political trials, Lomasko illuminates the inequality and injustice at the heart of contemporary Russian society and gives voice to Russia's many voiceless citizens. Not content to remain in the capital, she travels the country, visiting schools in dying villages; interviewing sex workers in foundering industrial towns; teaching children at juvenile prisons to draw, all while drawing their stories. Her portraits allow readers to see these people as more than words on paper and to see them as she does: with dignity, compassion, and love.

Résumé:
This volume emerged after years of visiting different architects’ studios and noticing how life intermingles with work. The publication seeks to add to the description of work-life spaces through an explanation of projects in progress at a given time in the featured studio. A two-fold narrative exists in each instalment: photographic and written. Texts by the architects provide explanation, while the images follow a narrative discourse coherent to each edition of the journal. This first edition features Flores & Prats, an architectural practice in Barcelona founded by Eva Prats and Ricardo Flores in 1998. The two combine design and constructive practice with academic activity.

Résumé:
Though she’s been cast as a quirky, shadowy figure, moving on the outskirts, these eye-to-eye portraits reveal a deeper Maier. These pictures show that she yearned to connect with people around her. That she often stopped them, talked to them, and always watched closely. These inspirational pictures teach us that around every corner is a chance encounter. Somebody new. But only if we notice. Here we travel the world with Maier, visiting more than a dozen countries in Asia, Europe, and South America. We take trips with her through the United States and get to tag along as she walks around the block.

In this book we present three projects - UCA (University of Central Asia, Naryn Campus), MM (project MURAYAMA), HUA (Ho Chi Minh City University of Architecture) that are currently in progress in places where the culture and climate happen to be very different. Common to all three is an expansive lot. And regardless of the length of our involvement, all of the projects are now underway. In repeatedly visiting the sites, one things we realized was that in one way or another they were all still in the process of being 'cultivated', while in the past, we might have used the word 'developed'. What exactly, then, is the difference betwee 'cultivating' and 'developing'? -Kazuhiro Kojima + Kazuko Akamatsu

Résumé:
"Conscious community" focuses on three Louis I. Kahn Visiting Assistant Professors’ architecture studios at Yale including that of Chirs Cornelius of the Oneida Nation of Wisconsin in "De-Colonizing Indigenous Housing," New York-based architect Rodney Leon in "National Slavery Memorial" and Jordanian-Palestinian architect and designer Abeer Seikaly in "Conscious skins." The student projects exemplify a commitment to redefining the role of architecture in addressing societal and cultural complexities while redefining the architectural subject. These projects go beyond their proposed physical constructs; they are manifestations of a conversation about space, identity, and memory. This conversation challenges architectural norms, advocating for designs that view environmental, historical, and social aspects as interwoven elements of the architectural brief.

Résumé:
This book reveals Copenhagen's quality of life using the example of built spaces. It leads its readers on a tour of exploration, visiting exciting architecture projects and surprising districts between Ørestadt and Nordhavn. A total of over 25 buildings, urban squares and public spaces created in the past 10 years are presented. Documented with photos, general plans and texts, these projects paint an image of a generation of architects and planners who are not afraid to employ novel solutions. On display are daring typologies such as Amager Bakke, a ski slope on a waste incineration plant by BIG, iconic buildings, including the Royal Danish Aquarium by 3XN or popular public spaces for the urban community.
