It theorizes the cage, fence, dragnet, and tube as material–semiotic sites for racialization and for iteratively redefining the human–animal boundary. A collaborative conversation across continents, this work examines the racial cage as an(...)

Résumé:
"The racial cage" delivers a spirited and polyvocal analysis of how race is materialized through both metaphorical and literal cages. It theorizes the cage, fence, dragnet, and tube as material–semiotic sites for racialization and for iteratively redefining the human–animal boundary. A collaborative conversation across continents, this work examines the racial cage as an important part of the practice of social division and bodily containment. The deeply considered result is an empirical and theoretical approach to biohumanities that productively interrogates its linkages to critical theories of race and racism.

This first volume in a series examining intersections between architectural theory and practice addresses environmental crisis and spatial justice through four essays. Marc Angélil and Cary Siress trace the evolution from Technocene, Thermocene, Plantationocene, to Entropocene, Capitalocene, and Urbicene.

Résumé:
The second volume in an anthology on Tsuyoshi Tane’s evolving architectural practice. Featuring seventeen recent projects, including major commissions currently underway, such as the New Main Building of the Imperial Hotel Tokyo and the Sensoji Temple Treasure Museum, it highlights his ongoing investigation into “archaeological thinking”, a design approach rooted in uncovering memory, place, and the deep layers of history that shape the built environment. Each project thus emerges from extensive research: archival, material, cultural, spatial. Through sketches, studies, and project narratives, it reveals how ideas are patiently excavated and woven into architectural forms.

Brussels-based architectural firm Baukunst, founded in 2012, has both art and technology built into its name ("bau" for building and "kunst" for art). Maintaining a high level of abstraction, its fluid practice positions all projects as theoretical propositions, to be returned to repeatedly over time. The selection of works featured in this issue of 2G is not an archive of its work, but rather a research atlas in which the montage of architectural drawings, site photographs, models and digital images speaks of the latent ideas germinated and tested across its projects.

Résumé:
Since 2004, Manuel Cervantes Estudio has approached architecture as a dialogue with territory, culture, and time. Driven by exploration, the studio develops processes rooted in research, observation, and the distillation of local conditions – climate, materials, craft, and everyday life – into clear and essential forms. Ranging from social housing to pavilions and infrastructure, its projects balance innovation with restraint, seeking synthesis through structural clarity and environmental responsibility. Founded by Manuel Cervantes Céspedes, the practice bridges design, research, and teaching, and is recognised as a leading voice in contemporary Mexican architecture.

Giancarlo De Carlo’s academic and professional career combined two seemingly opposed terms in a single vocation: architecture and anarchy. But this was a vocation that avoided the utopian fantasies of the 1960s and 1970s and instead strove for rigor.

Résumé:
Giancarlo De Carlo’s academic and professional career combined two seemingly opposed terms in a single vocation: architecture and anarchy. But this was a vocation that avoided the utopian fantasies of the 1960s and 1970s and instead strove for rigor. In the essays collected in this book, De Carlo shows how the idea of participatory architecture can open the way to a realistic, fully realizable utopia—in theory, but also in practice: in his urban planning of the city center of Rimini and in his architectural plan for the village of Matteotti in Terni.

Résumé:
Veruska Vasconez is a Brazilian architect and academic whose work spans practice, research, and teaching. This volume gathers seventeen voices – architects, historians, practitioners – who illuminate how housing, design, and infrastructure act as mediators for the most urgent challenges of our time. These essays are not isolated reflections but rather interwoven inquiries into architecture’s capacity as a form of social imagination, a vehicle for justice, and a medium for re-envisioning urban futures. The collection emerges from the graduate seminar Housing, Infrastructure, and Transportation at the University of Miami, originally developed by architect Elizabeth Plater-Zyberk.

Résumé:
Documenting architectural projects completed in the Netherlands in 2025, this publication is conceived as an open, panoramic record of contemporary practice. ‘NL25’ brings together work across scales, typologies, geographies, and office sizes, offering a broad and inclusive overview of the year’s built output. Rather than a narrowly curated selection, the book captures the diversity of architectural production shaping the Netherlands today, while maintaining a strong editorial language through its artfully designed format. ‘NL25’ therefore serves as both a snapshot of the present moment and a lasting reference for architects, institutions, and enthusiasts.
