Résumé:
ROAM is an unconventional academic reader, looking at 'the Aesthetics of Mobility'. Under five themes - narrative, representation, glocalisation, telematics, velocity - ideas around what it is to 'roam' are explored, from theoritical texts to magazine style snippets of information. Against an architectural understanding of urban spaces and mobility. ROAM also engages with discourses from art, cultural studies, design and politics. In line with its unconventional approach, the texts in ROAM are designed to be read at different speeds, so that design projects are interspliced amongst essays and soundbites, provoking the reader with new views about our increasingly mobilised society.

Résumé:
The midwestern city of Columbus, Indiana, is more than a mecca of modern architecture; it is an example of how design can help foster a remarkable community. The dozens of buildings and projects by legendary architects – from mid-century titans such as Eero Saarinen and I. M.

Résumé:
The midwestern city of Columbus, Indiana, is more than a mecca of modern architecture; it is an example of how design can help foster a remarkable community. The dozens of buildings and projects by legendary architects – from mid-century titans such as Eero Saarinen and I. M. Pei to contemporary practitioners Deborah Berke and IwamotoScott – remain integral to its urban fabric. This book explores Columbus’s optimistic program of bold new architecture and landscapes, initiated by the legendary industrialist J. Irwin Miller and local leaders, and the generations-long quest to develop the ideal American city through design excellence.

Résumé:
In a positive departure from modernism, the work of the art critic and urbanist Ludwig Hilberseimer offers schemata towards the design for the city itself: its mereological composition. The resonance of parts unfolds to an alternative of a purely contrasting equation of form and content. It reminds us, that when the ground (logos) of the city is defined by its parts(...)

Résumé:
In a positive departure from modernism, the work of the art critic and urbanist Ludwig Hilberseimer offers schemata towards the design for the city itself: its mereological composition. The resonance of parts unfolds to an alternative of a purely contrasting equation of form and content. It reminds us, that when the ground (logos) of the city is defined by its parts (meros), its architecture, the city in turn always also is part of the architecture as its desire. The Mereological City introduces a mereological methodology and contributes to an ongoing discussion about an ecological form of urban design.

Résumé:
Interpreting design as a geographical agent deeply involved in the territorial engravings of contemporary urbanization, "New geographies 09" investigates the urban landscapes shaping the posthuman geographies of the early 21st century, fostering a wide-ranging debate about both the potentials and challenges for design to engage with the complex spatialities, more-than-human ecologies, and diverse forms and habits of life in a post-anthropocentric world. With Contributions by Rosalind Williams, Erik Swyngedouw, Cary Wolfe, McKenzie Wark, Jason Moore, Benjamin Bratton, Luciana Parisi, Eyal Weizman, Shannon Mattern, Rosetta Elkin, Mimi Sheller, and Stephen Graham, among others.

The book highlights the fundamental aspects of this charismatic architect's work that are relevant from a contemporary perspective: his redefining of the house and urban development, the effect of order and discovery in his designs, the poetic force of his buildings and, lastly, their cultural permeation seen, for instance, in Japanese influences. Daniel Treiber has been teaching architctural design and architectural history for twenty-five years. Since 2002 he has done so in the context of a Design Chair at the École d'architecture in Lille. He is also the director of the advisory board for the national training of architects in France.

Résumé:
When weather becomes part of the design of buildings, new affiliations between meteorology and architecture emerge. As the interaction with and use of energy and natural flows within cities and buildings becomes increasingly crucial to the future of urban design, questions regarding the appropriate formal and spatial expressions of these forces must also be addressed. ROEWU, a collaboration between Stephen Roe and Chiafang Wu, combines the experiences each brings from the volatile weather inherent to their respective places of origin, Ireland and Taiwan. This book offers new perspectives as the intersections of climate and architecture are explored.

Résumé:
Observatorium is a unique consortium of three artists that has developed a philosophy and a working procedure that aims to make the grey areas and interfaces of architecture, urban design, landscape architecture and art more productive. Instead of creating autonomous art in public space, the group uses the media of sculpture and installation to make functional facilities that are monumental, symbolic and meaningful. This publication is at once an overview and an outcome of their design philosophy, and is accompanied by photographs, drawings and narratives, along with a complete list of their works produced to date.
