Résumé:
This publication documents the impact that elevators, escalators and moving walkways have had on the urban landscape, building types and culture worldwide. The mid-nineteenth-century invention of the elevator safety break, in conjunction with other developments such as the steel frame, facilitated the construction of the skyscraper and so helped to transform the appearance of our cities and the places in which many of us live and work. The turn-of-the-century inventions of the escalator and the moving sidewalk have left their indelible mark on railway stations, airports, retail spaces, hotels, offices, factories and elsewhere. "Up, down, across" makes a long-overdue and valuable addition to urban and architectural studies and cultural history.

Alonso, Balaguer & Associated Architects, one of the most prolific offices in architecture today, presents in this publication their project philosophy through their most recent works, more than fifty projects and works in several cities and countries. The internationalization of their architectural and business concepts, exporting on a high level Spanish architecture in general, and demonstrating how, Catalonian architecture in particular, is opening a bright path ahead for projects of great repercussion and social significance.

Résumé:
Architectural photographer Jussi Tiainen has skilfully captured in his photographs the versatile nature of concrete, its smoothness and coarseness, strength and sensitivity, hardness and softness, and light and shadow. For this book he has photographed the best of Finnish concrete architecture from recent years – 16 different buildings, ranging from public buildings to a single-family house, and from new buildings to remodelling projects. Among the architects’ offices included are JKMM Architects, Lahdelma & Mahlamäki Architects, and Heikkinen & Komonen Architects. The article at the beginning of the book by architect Maritta Koivisto, edtior-in-chief of the Finnish journal Betoni [Concrete], opens an interesting angle on the uses of concrete in building and architecture.

Résumé:
In 1952-1953 Mies van der Rohe built the Crown Hall in Chicago: it was to house the College of Architecture on Illinois' Institute of Technology campus. A spectacular building constructed out of steel and glass, it has no interior supports and the roof is suspended from four steel girders. In the Hall free-standing partitions subdivide the space, creating drawing rooms, a library and an exhibition room. The basement is used for offices and workshops. In Crown Hall, Mies van der Rohe's continual search for a clear expression of structure reached its pinnacle, and in this book this epochal building is presented in text and illustrations by Werner Blaser, who has worked together with Mies van der Rohe.

Résumé:
Issue 435 highlights three projects: a university facility in the Netherlands by KAAN Architecten, a residential apartment in Finland by Steven Holl Architects, and a hospital in the United Kingdom by HKS + Cagni Williams Associates + Sonnemann Toon Architects. These innovative designs showcase diverse typologies, emphasizing functionality, sustainability, and architectural creativity. Additionally, this issue explores three transformative examples of evolving factory architecture—integrating production spaces with offices and incorporating natural elements to create healthier and more inspiring work environments. Last chapter takes a deep dive into the world of Japanese architect Tomoaki Uno. Known for his philosophy of creating “the unprecedented ordinary,” Uno’s work challenges conventional thinking and raises profound questions about the essence of architecture.
