Résumé:
Strata malls are multi-level commercial buildings with units individually owned and managed. Unlike traditional shopping centers, these malls often house diverse shops catering to niche interests and local communities, contributing to their unique charm and adaptability. Singapore has seen a renewed interest in strata malls, highlighted by the conservation of Golden Mile Complex in 2021 and Peace Centre’s creative revitalization in 2023. "Singapore Strata Malls: A retrospective for the future" explores their urban, architectural, and cultural significance. Co-authored by Calvin Chua and Aurelia Chan, this book examines these spaces' structural and intangible qualities through essays and creative analyses.

Résumé:
This volume is a history of twentieth-century Britain told through the rise, fall, and reinvention of six different types of urban space: the industrial estate, shopping precinct, council estate, private flats, shopping mall, and suburban office park. Sam Wetherell shows how these spaces transformed Britain’s politics, economy, and society, helping forge a midcentury developmental state and shaping the rise of neoliberalism after 1980. Taking readers to almost every major British city as well as to places in the United States and Britain’s empire, the book highlights how some of the major transformations of twentieth-century British history were forged in the everyday spaces where people lived, worked, and shopped.

The same year, Silvan Tomkins, the father of affect theory, published Volume I of ''Affect imagery consciousness'', which exuberantly draws on the then-sensational cybernetic brain-computer metaphor. 1962 also saw the publication of ''Story sequence analysis'' by Magda Arnold, a luddistic and devoutly Catholic psychologist who mothered the monumental cognitive appraisal theory of emotion. ''Modernist affect grid’s'' essay-poems triangulate these events as they emerge amidst the Cold War tech race’s paranoid and projective ambition.

Across these early volumes, Ethridge stages a sharp, playful inquiry into the American everyday. From rotting Florida citrus orchards to half-built suburban interiors and the static hum of strip-mall signage, each book turns on a clear typological register, where the familiar slides easily into the strange. Ethridge sets his pictures in a dialogue with photographic archetypes – catalogues, calendars, studio models, kitsch displays – using them to probe how images shape, naturalise and sometimes fracture American life.

Résumé:
Architecture built for the purpose of living out a fantasy or for pure pleasure is multiplying at a breathtaking pace. The Mall of America, Dubai's The Palm, and Brandenburg's Tropical Island are all examples of architecture that do not fit into the traditional realm of buildings and function. Dream Worlds traces the idea of architecture and entertainment from its earliest incarnations, such as the Colosseum, to the late twentieth century, when examples of "architainment" have proliferated. It examines the post-modern desire for escapism and considers the future of this trend. Florian Holzherr's photographs capture each site as architectural structure, while complementary photographs by the author illustrate the sites in daily use.

With the Sea World Culture and Arts Center, Maki and Associates adds an important cultural space to Shenzhen’s waterfront. Elsewhere, the architects of the Shenzhen-based firm Urbanus added a new typology to Chinese urban landscapes: an urban village on the roof of a conventional mall. Heatherwick Studio shows us the art of reinvention with the conversion of a decommissioned grain silo in Cape Town. The imposing silo has been turned into an art gallery with a hotel. Mark asks how works of art can compete with the building’s compelling transformation.

In post-colonial Africa, «White Elephant» was the name given to buildings erected with international money and never put to use; relic of an enormous waste. Europe has its own fair share of such mammoths: a pratically unused railway station designed by Santiago Calatrava near Lyon, the frame of an Aldo Rossi shopping mall in Berlin, a lonely feeder road in the middle of nowhere, now slowly being reclaimed by nature... On his search for new developments in ruins, the Swiss photographer Christian Helmle discovered a vast amount of monumental solitary buildings and complexes throughout Europe's cities and countrysides. Relieved of their original functions, the barren structures have lost any connection to their environments, appearing alien and surreal. Throught Christian Helmle's shots they develop their own individual, touchingly melancholic aesthetic.
