The first of two features in this issue presents five projects recently designed by contemporary Chilean offices, all manifestations of an architectural style meant to enhance life in isolation, away from the city and embedded in the natural landscape. Highlighted are houses by Pezo Von Ellrichshausen, Max Núñez, Ampuero Yutronic, Schmidt Associates Architects, and Felipe Assadi Arquitectos.

Résumé:
In this daring essay inspired by Nietzsche, Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari redefine the relation between the state and its war machine. Far from being a part of the state, warriers (the army) are nomads who always come from the outside and keep threatening the authority of the state. Theorizing a dynamic relationship between sedentary power and "schizophrenic lines of flight," this volume is meant to be read in transit, smuggled into urban nightclubs, offices, and subways. Deleuze and Guattari propose a creative and resistant ethics of becoming-imperceptible, strategizing a continuous invention of weapons on the run.

Résumé:
No. 652 of ''a+u'' showcases 25 projects by Renzo Piano Building Workshop from 2010–2025, revealing how RPBW’s Genoa and Paris offices adapt to diverse urban contexts. Whether working in historic cities like London and Istanbul or creating new landmarks, RPBW emphasizes human experience through structural lightness and environmental integration. The solarpunk spirit that has distinguished RPBW over the years comes through in humanist projects like Uganda's Children's Surgical Hospital, combining rammed-earth construction with solar technology. Monumental institutions such as the cliff-like Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center in Athens demonstrate an analytical approach to site-specific challenges.
