SUBURBAN CONSTELLATIONS
In a world of cities, suburbanization is the most visible and pervasive phenomenon. Global sprawl engulfs us but it does so in remarkably differentiated ways. While the single-family home subdivisions of North America remain the “classical case,” there are now many other forms of suburbanism around the globe. The high rise housing estates around many European and Canadian cities, the belts and wedges of squatter settlements in the global south, the burgeoning megacity peripheries between Istanbul and Shanghai and the technopoles and edge cities in all corners of the world are all part of a pervasive trend towards global suburbanisms.

JA 46 hiroshi naito
Dostępność: na zamówienie "JA46" is a special edition devoted to architect Hiroshi Naito. The works gathered here, ranging from his early buildings to projects now in progress, are selected from a period of some twenty years. Throughout this span of time, Naito’s design stance has been constant and characterized by a breadth of vision encompassing dimensions from "1/1" to "1/2,000". "1/1" means the design issues studied in the building at scale: its components and detailing. "1/2,000" means the building’s environmental context and landscape.

PATH OF MODERNISM...
An unusual journey between Breslau and Dessau, from the World Cultural Heritage of the Centennial Hall (1913) to the World Cultural Heritage of Bauhaus dating from the twenties: and there are many highpoints of modern architecture in-between—in Görlitz, Dresden-Hellerau, Leipzig or Chemnitz, for example. Almost all the great modernist architects ar gathered together here, from Hans Poelzig and Henry van de Velde to Heinrich Tessenow, Richard Riemerschmid, Hans Scharoun, Erich Mendelsohn and even Walter Gropius. But the focus is also on the cities themselves; at a very early date, their progressive building councillors thought hard about European urban development—about buildings ranging from striking tower blocks to top-quality mass housing.
