Résumé:
The 1970s was marked by a seismic change that occurred in the representation of ideas in architecture as they appeared monthly on the pages of AD. The magazine bears out the energetic, experimental, environmentally-conscious and ultimately pluralist culture that prevailed throughout the 1960s, carrying it through to the emergence of Post-Modernism in the late 1970s.

Résumé:
Architecture and construction are at a turning point. They account for more than 40% of global CO2 emissions. Rising temperatures can only be reduced if there is a radical change in the field of construction throughout the world. However, how should we design our cities, buildings and living spaces so that we can get closer to the goal of decarbonisation? The book gives 20 architects and urban planners their say on the future of construction. Voices are heard from Mexico to Kenya – from Bangladesh to Switzerland. In the interviews experts give an account of their own experiences with climate-friendly construction as well as regional problems posed by rising CO2emissions. They explain pioneering projects and combine them with their personal desire and political ideals.

A persistent narrative portrays the ocean as an uninhabited space. However, centuries of commercial trade and an expanding network of infrastructures above and below the water’s surface have long challenged this view, prompting researchers to conceptualise the sea as an urbanised environment.

A persistent narrative portrays the ocean as an uninhabited space. However, centuries of commercial trade and an expanding network of infrastructures above and below the water’s surface have long challenged this view, prompting researchers to conceptualise the sea as an urbanised environment. While the sea is a global arena where architecture, ecology, infrastructure, and politics intersect, its spatial dynamics remain largely uncharted. In a time of planetary urbanisation, ''The Ocean as Ground: An Offshore Theory on Urbanisation'' explores oceans as urban spaces by unveiling forgotten histories, projects, and narratives. How might we understand land urbanisation starting from the oceans? Through the conceptual lens of “ground”, the book invites readers to rethink how we perceive, design, and inhabit the spaces of both land and sea.

In an age of digital cameras and computer renderings, the tradition of drawing and assembling an architectural sketchbook seems at once either willfully eccentric and or charmingly retrograde. But its profound importance to architecture and urban planning endures. Italian Cities and Landscapes is a compact and lovely sketch book created by architect William H. Fain during a six month fellowship at the American Academy in Rome. Exploring the Italian city and countryside by bicycle, Fain used colored pencil to sketch scenes of the street life, the magnificent landscapes, and the architectural marvels of Italy. Italian Cities and Landscapes shows that for the creative individual, documenting travels through drawing continues to be a valuable means of learning to see, understand, and design.

Résumé:
The devastation of the Second World War gave rise to imaginations both utopian and apocalyptic. In Japan, a fascinating confluence of architects and science fiction writers took advantage of this space to begin remaking urban design. In 'The Metabolist Imagination', William O. Gardner explores the unique Metabolism movement, which allied with science fiction authors to foresee the global cities that would emerge in the postwar era. This first comparative study of postwar Japanese architecture and science fiction builds on the resurgence of interest in Metabolist architecture while establishing new directions for exploration. Gardner focuses on how these innovators created unique versions of shared concepts—including futurity, megastructures, capsules, and cybercities—making lasting contributions that resonate with contemporary conversations around cyberpunk, climate change, anime, and more.

Both architects and novelists tell stories about place; real and imagined. They are in this sense both urban practitioners, creating neighbourhoods to serve communities and articulating the values of societies through the design of their streets.This book of original short stories, written by architects, engineers, and novelists, explores the architecture of the near future glimpsed through the lens of fictional characters, places and buildings. What will the architecture of the future be like? How will cities change with environmental breakdown? How will people travel once cars are ancient history? What will buildings look like when bricks and mortar are no longer instruments of financial accumulation?

OMA - Office for Metropolitan Architecture - is one of the world's most influential think tanks for architecture and urban planning. With his intellectual approach to architecture, Rem Koolhaas, founding father and Pritzker Award winner, is much more than an international architecture super star. The architecture at OMA is developed in close cooperation with AMO, an associated yet independent design and research studio. Now, as then, the goal is to reconsider architecture, break from conventions, discover new possibilities. The journey is the destination, the architecture a never-ending process of constantly changing conditions and perspectives. This monograph on OMA highlights impressive projects from several years of architectural creativity by describing concepts, techniques and processes. And by presenting one thing above all, numerous architectural details.

The understanding that we are always situated within the built environment is a thread running through each of the firm’s individual projects, as well as between the chapters of this new book, the first on driendl*architects’s vision and work. "Ritual / Original" looks at two decades of work by driendl*architects. During this time, our environment has changed rapidly and significantly, and this is reflected in the evolution of the ideas and concepts that underlie the firm’s buildings and projects. Offering unparalleled insight into the inner workings of driendl*architects, the book explores selected designs and the firm’s approach more broadly.

SYSTEMS gives the first comprehensive overview of Jeanne van Heeswijk’s socially engaged artistic practice from the past decade. The book presents models for the design of social spaces as well as directions for the analysis of social structures. The first chapter is dedicated to the games people play. Games are rehearsals of social interactions; they simulate reality and are open to experimentation; their rules establish limits within which freedom of action is possible. The second chapter investigates rooms people inhabit, i.e. the urban structures of social cohabitation. Here, external reference points of social conditioning can be found. The third chapter deals with the communities people create, as structures of individual, artistic positioning. With texts by Carlos Basualdo, Marjolein Schaap and Axel Lapp.

In the process, it examines variants under the categories of access, space (ground plan and open space), and morphology, supplemented by detailed typological descriptions and the elaboration of the special qualities of each individual type. More general essays draw connections between the housing types and twentieth-century reference projects. All of the projects are newly drawn to uniform standards; every project is presented with its ground plan drawn to a scale of 1:200. Site maps, sections, elevations, and photographs illuminate the urban setting, the building structure and design, and the spatial and functional qualities of each residential structure.
