Vous vous souvenez souvent de l'escalier piano qui s'était installé le temps d'une journée à Stockholm ..... Aujourd'hui, 400 sources lumineuses, disposées en grille et toutes dotées de capteurs de mouvements, changent pendant quelques secondes de couleur dès que quelqu’un passe à proximité de l’une d’entre elle. Érick Villeneuve, l’un des artistes à l’origine du projet, explique même qu’un « travail de groupe peut mener à la conception d’un message ou d’un dessin » Via Lockall

These cities, unlike the scores of new multi-million-inhabitant urban agglomerations of China, or new-build exurban extensions such as South Korea's Songdo New City and Noida, not far from New Delhi, do not occupy greenfield tabula rasa.
Their fabric is the product of stratification, compromise, adaptation and ingenuity, and the predictable consequences of the sudden arrival of capital are spectacular acts of erasure, negotiated for the most part behind the closed doors of boardrooms and planning departments. The fate of vast swathes of the city – of entire communities and economies, the urban equivalents of bodily organs – can come to rest on semantics, definitions and subtle questions of representation.

Forget about the 1-kilometer-high Kingdom Tower. There will be a building higher than that: the Azerbaijan Tower. It will be fifty meters higher than the Kingdom Tower, have 189 floors and look like a shiny glass, steel and concrete monolith of crap.

For more than thirty years, Michael Sorkin has been a strong, constructively critical voice in the field of architecture. His many books and articles have opened our eyes and minds to the social and political issues lurking behind the often too-fancy facades designed by the famous for the rich and powerful. He blithely refuses to be seduced. At the same time, he has been the stalwart champion of a more egalitarian urbanism, in his writings, his urban planning practice, and his teaching. His book Local Code…. is a landmark in all these venues. Via Beturbio

If you are an architect or a planner despite of your location you will probably know the NEUFERT as a kind of daily bible.
Of course there are some other reference books such as the Metric Handbook, Materials_Structures_Standards or Architectural_Graphic_Standards but none of them is so widely distributed as this book founded by the German architect Ernst Neufert in 1936.
Till today the NEUFERT BAUENTWURFSLEHRE was translated into 18 languages and at the moment the 40th German edition is being prepared.

At their best, design competitions are a lot like opening your window on a breezy spring day. They let ideas flow, freeing us from concepts that have grown stale.

Casi recién llegado de Barcelona el día anterior, el arquitecto chino Ma Yansong (fundador y director de MAD architects, estudio de arquitectura con sede en Pekín) ofreció el pasado viernes diez de febrero una sugerente conferencia en el Auditorio CentroCentro del rehabilitado Palacio de Telecomunicaciones, hoy sede del ayuntamiento madrileño. Antes, por la mañana, había participado en una sesión crítica con los alumnos de la escuela de arquitectura de la Universidad Europea de Madrid, que auspiciaba el acto dentro de su semana fantástica, junto con la revista Future y el colegio de arquitectos.

It is interesting to see the latest developments in neuroscience being used to justify an approach to design that has been around for a very long time. It short, this approach is to use natural forms as an inspiration for architectural forms. Via Beturbio
