Résumé:
"Artificial light" suggests an alternative type of critical theory consisting of personal and fictitious anecdotes, real and fake photographs, and mini-essays that addresses prevalent themes in architecture such as immediacy, affect, abstraction, atmosphere, realness, and banality. With a narrative style reminiscent of other unconventional writers on design such as Paul Shepheard, Roger Connah, and Rebecca Solnit, "Artificial light" is the beautifully written and visually engaging debut of a dynamic new voice in the world of architectural criticism. Keith Mitnick is an assistant professor of architecture at the University of Michigan, where he teaches graduate-level studios and seminars in architectural criticism, and a founding principal of Mitnick Roddier Hicks.

Résumé:
Two hundred and fifty Leisurama houses were built at Culloden Shores in Montauk, Long Island. Most of the homes have since been converted to year -round occupancy, and with very few exceptions, all have been enlarged and redecorated, while the once barren shore is now forested. In a sweet paradox, these once very affordable homes - in the 1960s, for as little as $590 down(...)

Most of the homes have since been converted to year -round occupancy, and with very few exceptions, all have been enlarged and redecorated, while the once barren shore is now forested. In a sweet paradox, these once very affordable homes - in the 1960s, for as little as $590 down and $73 a month, you could walk into Macy's and leave with a fully furnished house - that were looked down upon by more well-to-do neighbors are now desirable and expensive, even "collectable." Their rich legacy lives on in the affordable pages of Leisurama. The different houses are shown each 2 on a page, followed by a map of their location on the beach, as well as the detailed presentation of their interior design in pictures and words, and original documents.

Résumé:
Mass Studies was founded in 2003 by Cho, Minsuk in Seoul, Korea, as a critical investigation of architecture in the context of mass production, intensely over-populated urban conditions, and other emergent cultural niches that define contemporary society. Amid the many frictions defining spatial conditions in the 21st Century, namely past vs. future local vs. global, utopia vs. reality, and individual vs. collective. Mass Studies focuses on the operative complexity of these multiple conditions instead of striving for a singular, unified perspective. For each architectural project that exists across a wide range of scales, Mass Studies explores issues such as spatial systemps/matrixes, building materials/techniques, and typological divergences to foster a vision that allows the discovery of new socio/cultural potential.
