Résumé:
The COVID-19 pandemic has forced a re-examination of the architecture and design of our interiors from a wide range of perspectives. As containment measures were imposed, the private dwelling became central to the lives of many people worldwide; no longer a simple accumulation of furniture and objects, the interior is an intimate, socio-cultural construction anchored in a precise moment of space and time. A text by Swiss architect Philippe Rahm, who has long worked on climate phenomena and is now looking at its relationship with the pandemic, is among the ten articles by international contributors in this issue, guest edited by design historian Penny Sparke.

Résumé:
Since the 1960s, the increasingly evident degradation of the planet has brought a new urgency to much new art and architecture. This book is the first publication to gather together artists from this period and onward, who have created utopian works and devised inspiring solutions for our planet. Radical Nature draws on ideas that have emerged from Land art, environmental activism, experimental architecture and utopian thought—ideas that propose a new “radical nature” to reconcile the earth's needs with those of humankind. Works by pioneering figures such as the architectural collective Ant Farm, visionary architect R. Buckminster Fuller and artists Joseph Beuys, Agnes Denes, Hans Haacke and Robert Smithson are presented alongside works by a younger generation including Simon Starling, Luke Fowler, R(n) and Philippe Rahm.

Résumé:
Last 2007 La Casa Encendida organised the Sueño de Casa Propia (Dream of a Home of One’s Own) exhibition, curated by María Inés Rodríguez, in which a series of reflections on housing by artists, designers and architects served as the basis for an analysis of how different contexts produce different strategies for resolving the issue of access to housing. Parallel to the exhibition, a seminar entitled Housing and Domestic Space in the 21st Century was organised. Coordinated by Juan Herreros, an architect and lecturer at the Madrid University School of Architecture, the seminar brought together a group of intellectuals from both Spain and abroad for discussions on this theme. The ultimate aim of the seminar was to raise awareness about architecture’s potential role in the current and evident transformation of lifestyles. With the collaboration of: Raúl Cárdenas, María Auxiliadora Gálvez, Vicente Guallart, Hans-Walter Müller, Philippe Rahm, Alejandro Aravena, Robert Kronenburg, Colin Davies and Enric Ruiz-Geli.

Résumé:
L’enjeu de ce volume est de comprendre notre expérience du monde à l’heure où s’estompe la primauté du visible et du spatial. Traitant de l’ambiance, mais plus encore des conditions d’air des architectures de l’ambiance, l’auteur met en lumière une évolution autant architecturale que politique.

Résumé:
L’enjeu de ce volume est de comprendre notre expérience du monde à l’heure où s’estompe la primauté du visible et du spatial. Traitant de l’ambiance, mais plus encore des conditions d’air des architectures de l’ambiance, l’auteur met en lumière une évolution autant architecturale que politique. Penser (à) l’air, cet invisible par nature, véhicule de notre inconscient climatique, c’est repenser notre rapport à la production et au projet. Le projet, plutôt que projection, deviendrait processus, reflétant une transformation profonde des pratiques architecturales, alors que l’émergence de la notion d’espace laisserait place, et c’est la thèse de l’auteur, à un échec de l’espace. À travers l’examen critique de projets de Le Corbusier (Armée du Salut) et de Robain & Guieysse (Mie de Pain) à Paris, de Christophe Amsler et de Philippe Rahm, de SANAA (EPFL Learning Center, Lausanne) et de Lacaton & Vassal (École d’Architecture, Nantes), Emmanuel Doutriaux affronte le thème de l’ambiance – concept cardinal de notre contemporain – partagé entre phénoménologie, sociologie de l’action située et philosophie pragmatiste.

Résumé:
Combining formal argument with informal conversations and design proposals, this title offers creative ideas for "thinking and acting architecture differently." What makes the book unique is the freshness of its voices — young architects and emerging practitioners who for the most part have not published before. Interwoven with their proposals are conversations among these new voices and more established authors and practitioners, including Sanford Kwinter, Sylvia Lavin, K. Michael Hays, Philippe Rahm, Liam Gillick, Teddy Cruz, and Michael Meredith. This publication investigates the inner contradictions tangling and obscuring architectural discourse. It locates architecture in a cultural, social, political, and situational landscape — the space it actually occupies in the contemporary world. Examining architecture as it comes into contact with other disciplines — including art, art history, cultural studies, curating, landscape architecture, neuroaesthetics, pedagogy, philosophy, political science, and urbanism — the book considers architecture's precarious position at the edge : at the edge of its own dilemmas and at the edge of "everything else." In different ways, all the contributors suggest how to understand the innovative possibilities and pitfalls of spatial practices—teasing, analyzing, and celebrating architecture's disciplinary ambiguity — with proposals that range from a "lo-res" architecture to one controlled by the curatorial impulse, from customizable "skins" on residential buildings to the collection of residual space for new uses. Their investigations encompass how to interpret, how to intervene, and how to imagine.
