Résumé:
Space influences us and we influence space. Within the infinite ''space of possibilities'' of architecture, PPAG architects are permanently searching for relevance and social utility, tracking down the architectural expression of the respective society, the ''necessary new'' in all its complexity. The exhibition is a plea for an unbiased, brave look at architecture and urban development. A view that sees development as a necessity, even if it surprises and irritates at first glance. Especially in view of the current global challenges, we need the courage to take alternative paths. The office's work is based on trust in the collective planning abilities; on the fact that through intensive engagement and thinking ahead, solutions can be found for a good future for all of us. The diversity of the''‘space of possibilities'' is presented in a special way in the exhibition of PPAG architects at the Aedes Architecture Forum. The projects presented push the boundaries and exhaust their realm, regardless of typology, scale, age, price range or realisation – in Ecuador, Northern Macedonia, Norway, Yakutsk, Vienna or Berlin.

Résumé:
Eyes on the Street is a revelation of the phenomenal woman who raised three children, wrote seven groundbreaking books, saved neighborhoods, stopped expressways, was arrested twice, and engaged at home and on the streets in thousands of debates--all of which she won. Here is the child who challenged her third-grade teacher; the high school poet; the journalist who honed her writing skills at Iron Age, Architectural Forum, Fortune, and other outlets, while amassing the knowledge she would draw upon to write her most famous book, The Death and Life of Great American Cities. Here, too, is the activist who helped lead an ultimately successful protest against Robert Moses's proposed expressway through her beloved Greenwich Village; and who, in order to keep her sons out of the Vietnam War, moved to Canada, where she became as well known and admired as she was in the United States.

Résumé:
The Middle Eastern bazaar is much more than a context for commerce: the studies in this book illustrate that markets, regardless of their location, scale, and permanency, have also played important cultural roles within their societies, reflecting historical evolution, industrial development, social and political conditions, urban morphology, and architectural functions. This interdisciplinary volume explores the dynamics of the bazaar with a number of case studies from Cairo, Damascus, Aleppo, Nablus, Bursa, Istanbul, Sanaa, Kabul, Tehran, and Yazd. Although they share some contextual and functional characteristics, each bazaar has its own unique and fascinating history, traditions, cultural practices, and structure. One of the most intriguing aspects revealed in this volume is the thread of continuity from past to present exhibited by the bazaar as a forum where a society meets and intermingles in the practice of goods exchange—a social and cultural ritual that is as old as human history.

Résumé:
Walker Evans (1903-1975) was one of the most important and influential artists of the twentieth century, producing a body of photographs that continues to shape our understanding of the modern era. He worked in every genre and format, in black & white and colour, but two passions were constant: literature and the printed page. While his photographic books are among the most influential in the medium's history, Evans's more ephemeral pages remain largely unknown. From small avant-garde publications to mainstream titles such as Harper's Bazaar, Vogue, Architectural Forum, Life and Fortune he produced innovative and independent journalism, often setting his own assignments, editing, writing and designing his pages. Presenting many of his photo-essays in their entirety Walker Evans: the Magazine Work assembles the unwritten history of this work, allowing us to see how he protected his autonomy, earned a living and found audiences far beyond the museum and gallery.

Résumé:
Une description détaillée des enjeux d’un grand projet et des propositions de quatre grandes équipes d'architectes. Trente ans après l’aménagement du quartier des Halles, la Ville de Paris a engagé une réflexion sur ce site afin de réaliser un processus de requalification du lieu. Dans ce cadre, la SEM Paris Centre a été mandatée pour conduire les études préalables à ce projet d’aménagement qui concerne différents acteurs : la région, la ville de Paris, la société civile du Forum des Halles de Paris qui est propriétaire des espaces commerciaux, etc. Cet ouvrage présente les enjeux pour les différents partenaires mais également les projets des 4 grandes équipes d'architectes en compétition : AJN – Jean Nouvel, MVRDV – Winy Maas, OMA – Rem Koolhaas et SEURA – David Mangin. Comme l'explique Jean Nouvel : « Le réaménagement du quartier des Halles est un grand projet, non dans le sens où ce terme fut employé pour la Bibliothèque de France ou l'Opéra Bastille, mais parce qu'il concerne une question complexe et centrale : requalifier un quartier qui, de centre de la capitale, est devenu par la grâce d'un nœud ferroviaire et métropolitain, le centre de l'Ile de France ». L'ensemble des projets a été présenté lors d’une exposition publique au Forum des Halles et a fait l’objet d’une concertation avec les associations représentatives des riverains et des usagers.

Résumé:
An increasing group in contemporary society is rejecting agricultural production, as it exists today. Particularly prevalent, is the heated debate about conditions under which livestock is kept and slaughtered. Economic and ecological issues, animal and environmental protection, ethics and a (more) conscious meat consumption play an important role. The conflicts between these aspects must be negotiated in the public discourse, raising the question of which role architecture can play to improve this condition. The exhibition "Architecture for pigs" presents solutions for a modern agricultural pork production that meet the new demands of today’s critical consumer. In 2016, the organisers of an architectural student competition (KTBL and Stiftung LV Münster) began their research for new perspectives on agricultural architecture, livestock and societal engagement with agriculture. With this exhibition, Aedes Architecture Forum kicks off its 40th anniversary program. It is a continuation of the exhibition series on the role of architecture in the development of rural regions.

Résumé:
Etymologically the term “intensity” refers to notions of measurement and quantity as well as strength and power depending on the context in which it is used. For this exhibition at Aedes Architecture Forum, the notion of “intensity” becomes the scale applied to architecture. “IntenCity” is articulated around a current and fundamental question: How can an increasing population and the resulting density and intensity be conducted by city planners and architects? As a way to answer this question, four key frames of intensity – history and city planning, architecture, landscape and flux – are used to highlight four projects: Espace Claude Monet in Rouen (2012), Pôle de commerces et de loisirs Confluence in Lyon (2012), Muse – Quartier de l’Amphithéâtre (2017) and Europea-Neo in Brussels (2025).

Résumé:
Rethinking strategies for rural development is a global pressing challenge. To stimulate the international discussion Aedes Architecture Forum Berlin is presenting a remarkable example from rural China. Dynamic urbanization processes shape large parts of the world and China in particular. The young population migrates to the cities, whereas many elderly people and children remain in the rural areas. While in the German hinterland railway lines are shut down and the digital infrastructure is more than inadequate, the rural exodus in China is countered with new high-speed train lines and even the most remote mountain villages are being connected by broadband coverage. But also small-scale architecture creates positive future prospects for cultural, social and economic development.
