Описание: The Academy of Urbanism was founded in 2006 with a mission to recognise, encourage and celebrate great places across the UK, Europe and beyond, and the people and organisations that create and sustain them. This book is a compendium of seventy five places that have been shortlisted as part of the Academy's annual awards scheme which covers great Places, Streets, Neighbourhoods, Towns and Cities. Included are 75 places shortlisted between 2009 and 2013. Each has been visited by a team of Academicians who have spent time in the place, talked to officials and local people and sought to understand what it is that makes them special and how they have achieved what they have achieved. The Academy also commissions a poem, a drawing and a figure ground plan to understand and interpret the place. David Rudlin, Rob Thompson and Sarah Jarvis have drawn on this treasure trove of material to tell the story of these 75 places. In doing so they have created the most comprehensive compendium of great urban places to have been published for many years.

Описание: Exploring the increasingly decentralized systems through which cities are organized and produced, this collection of case studies on global cities focuses on the emerging architectural practices which result from external influences.
Описание: With the impending demise of modernist planning, the footprints and corpses of failed modernist visions are littered everywhere. A vacuum of implementable
urban theories has occurred at the time when unprecedented expansion and restructuring of cities in rapidly developing economies are taking place. In this collection of essays, William
S W Lim zeroes in on the peculiarities and dynamics of present Asian urban and architectural conditions in order to challenge and transcend the socio-ecological forms and political
influences generated by the current system of global capitalism.
Part I of this book consists of the main essay, which attempts to establish baselines for an effective formulation
of ethical urbanism in Asia, by clarifying issues that have previously been unquestioningly bound up with Western values and discourses. As an architect/urbanist, Lim lends a
determinedly spatialist and environmental perspective to issues such as rights, ethics, happiness and social justice, while compelling his readers to rethink previously established notions
about them. Part II of this book consists of three city studies on Hanoi, Shanghai and Singapore, completed in the last two years, which attempt to match Lim's theoretical formulation
with actual conditions occurring in Asia today.
Also included is "Asian Architecture in the New Millennium", a fascinating discourse on contemporary design conducted from a
post-modern perspective.

Описание: Typological UrbanismProjective Cities Guest-edited by Christopher CM Lee and Sam Jacoby How can architecture today be simultaneously relevant to its urban context and at the very forefront of design? For a decade or so, iconic architecture has been fuelled by the market economy and consumers' insatiable appetite for the novel and the different. The relentless speed and scale of urbanisation, with its ruptured, decentralised and fast-changing context, though, demands a rethink of the role of the designer and the function of architecture. This title of 2 confronts and questions the profession's and academia's current inability to confidently and comprehensively describe, conceptualise, theorise and ultimately project new ideas for architecture in relation to the city. In so doing, it provides a potent alternative for projective cities: Typological Urbanism. This pursues and develops the strategies of typological reasoning in order to re-engage architecture with the city in both a critical and speculative manner. Architecture and urbanism are no longer seen as separate domains, or subservient to each other, but as synthesising disciplines and processes that allow an integrating and controlling effect on both the city and its built environment.

Описание: The special issue will gather together a range of creative and provocative contributions to examine the urban impact of trauma. In a comparison between September 11 and Cyclone Katrina, Andrew Benjamin will examine how architectures symbolic function distorts the possibility of an urban response in lower Manhattan, and elides its possibility in New Orleans. Eyal Weizman considers how an engagement with the geography of conflict in the Middle East challenges and reinvigorates the discipline of architectures tools of spatial research. Ole Bouman describes how the VOLUME project has challenged architectural publishing through a focus on the conditions of conflict in cities. Michael Hensel considers what massive change through global warming means for current thinking about an architecture of sustainability. And interviews with figures from Naomi Klein and Paul Collier, to Rajendra Pachauri, along with recent projects by OMA and Foster and Partners, represent a groundbreaking engagement with the urban questions of massive upheaval and continuous conditions of instability. These contributions go beyond architectures agency as a reflex action in disaster response to probe the wider disciplinary and practical questions of design in the aftermath.

Описание:
This volume argues that the city cannot be captured by any one mode of analysis but instead is composed of the mobile, relational, efficient, sentient, and the phenomenological with all of them cast in new theoretical configurations and combined into one methodological entity. Rather than focusing on any one city or abstract analytical model, this book instead takes a multipronged theoretical and methodological approach to present the city as an intelligent affective organism - a sentient being.
It proposes that cities operate on a relational, mobile, and phenomenological basis through the mode of efficiency, calibrated by a profoundly complicated division of labour. Its starting point is that the city is a mobile unit of analysis, from its economic status to its demographic makeup, from its cultural configuration to its environmental conditions, and therefore easily evades our quantitative and qualitative methods of computation and comprehension.
Twenty First Century Urbanism provides planning and urban design academics and students with a multifaceted approach to understanding the development of cities, encouraging the examination of cities through a myriad, non-linear approach.
