First comprehensive monograph about the tropical architecture of Godwin and Hopwood in Nigeria After studying at the Architectural Association in London, John Godwin and Gillian Hopwood moved to Nigeria, where they significantly shaped the country's architectural landscape for more than sixty years. When Nigeria became independent in 1960 following British dominance since the 19th century, the couple worked to create architecture that was site-specific, modern, and adapted to the climate relevant to Nigeria's aspirational political and economic policies. In this richly illustrated monograph, organised by typology, Ben Tosland examines Godwin and Hopwood's form of tropical modernism and illuminates its contemporary meanings and concluding with its relevance in times of the climate crisis. First comprehensive monograph about the architecture of Godwin and Hopwood Image-rich publication on one of the most important architectural practices for post-colonial, independent Nigeria Insightful findings for passive structural cooling techniques

In an age of glossy architectural visualizations and slick photography, today's media is saturated with images of projects mummified in their ideal, untouched, and unused state. Every design and technical publication on landscape architecture tries to teach us how to do things based on best practices. Rarely do we see a landscape project that has been in use for five or even ten years. To counterbalance this status quo, it is time to review and scrutinize the Sh*tscapes : typical mistakes in the design of our public realm. This publication is a compendium of a hundred failures made in the design, construction, or maintenance processes of urban landscapes. Looking at these unsuccessful examples, the authors propose simple and practical solutions aimed at preventing common mistakes, predicting future scenarios, and averting or accepting failures.

This volume of Incomplete Works gathers together a number of speculative design projects made by Doctor Watson Architects in the early years of the 21st century. Most, if not all, of the projects began as a response to a specific architectural competition brief, however, DWA never were interested in winning a competition. Over the years DWA have been asking themselves about the status of these projects, what kind of a thing are they? The projects are represented through the conventional conceptual tools and media that all architects use when they are developing a design: physical and digital models, diagrams, sketches, scale projections and perspective views. And yet, because DWA were not fully aligned with the competition programme, so there is something a little quirky and strange about the projects.

Baumschlager Eberle Berlin (BE Berlin) was founded in 2010 by Dietmar Eberle and Gerd Jäger with a very specific mission. In its early years, this renowned architecture firm designed global competition bids for Baumschlager Eberle. As a result of its successes, especially in residential architecture in and around Berlin, the Berlin office increasingly also took on the work of implementation planning. The guiding maxim of BE Berlin has always been to focus on projects that will stand the test of time. This dovetails with Dietmar Eberle's motto of building for everyday life. In addition to about 40 project profiles, this book contains an interview with Gerd Jäger by Jürgen Tietz, an essay on residential construction in Germany and especially Berlin by Gerd Jäger, and a photo essay by Claudia Klein. Monograph on BE Berlin Specialized in the design of subsidized public housing in Berlin and internationally Supplement to the monograph Baumschlager Eberle Architekten 2010-2020

Do you feel heard?We try to put our thoughts into words to describe what we feel or what we believe in. We communicate with our bodies and speak through our actions. But silence is a form of communication, too. In silence, complex relationships unfold and allow unspoken realities to emerge. In every absence lies a presence, in every pause a possibility.This issue of trans magazin invites you to perceive the phenomenon of silence beyond the absence of sound.

Architecture of Commonality. Grounds for Hope is an edited collection of essays that expands on the role of museums and cultural institutions in Palestine and the Arab world. The book is guided by reflections on the Palestinian Museum in Birzeit, Palestine, which won the 2019 Aga Khan Award for Architecture.The long history of the genesis of the Museum as an institution is the framing device for a multiplicity of voices to reflect on the role architecture plays in the orchestration of memorialization, on the significance of curatorial strategies that respond to situations of conflict, and a discussion of the blurred boundaries between architecture, landscape and land art.As a way to reflect on the deep ties the Museum and the gardens hold with the ground and the landscape, the collection of essays by scholars across cultures, and interviews with designers, is structured around four main themes, Stones, Seeds, Voices and Walks. The intention is to expand beyond the confines of the singular project in order to invite reflections on the positive role cultural institutions play in planting hope for the future and locating the conversations within the political and historical framework of the region.

Bibliotheken heute sind bunt, laut, lebendig. Dort, wo sich einst Bücher in hohen Regalen aneinanderreihten und ehrfürchtige Stille herrschte, sind öffentliche Wohnzimmer entstanden, in denen das "Machen mit Medien" im Mittelpunkt steht. Der Band stellt vier Bibliotheks-Neukonzeptionen des Augsburger Büros Schrammel Architekten anschaulich vor.Anhand der vier von Schrammel Architekten realisierten Bibliotheken lassen sich der rasante Wandel in der Planung Öffentlicher Bibliotheken und die damit verbundene Veränderung ihrer Konzepte über fast 20 Jahre hinweg eindrücklich nachvollziehen. Mit Plänen und reich bebildert führt der Band von der Stadtbücherei in Augsburg über das Kulturforum in Hanau bis hin zu den Zentralbibliotheken in Düsseldorf und Mönchengladbach. Textbeiträge betrachten die Projekte aus unterschiedlichen Blickwinkeln und geben Ausblick auf zukünftige Bauaufgaben.

Kooperative Standards meint gestalterische, programmatische, räumliche Elemente, die sich aus Erfahrungswissen und geteilter Verantwortung heraus konstituieren. Als Antworten auf spezifische Probleme und Bedarfe weichen sie von verallgemeinernden Regeln und Normen ab und ermöglichen es, jeweils in ihrem Umfeld besondere Qualitäten und Beziehungen zu realisieren. Eine Betondecke, die den Barbetrieb erlaubt, während oben noch gebaut wird, Gerüste und Wintergärten, Balkone und Laubengänge die Wohnräume erweitern und mit der Nachbarschaft verflechten, ein Betriebshof, auf dem so gewohnt und gearbeitet werden kann, wie es eigentlich verboten ist. Die Hefte 1-7 entfalten das Thema der kooperativen Standards auf ganz unterschiedlichen Ebenen der Planung und Gestaltung. Die hier versammelten Projekte von Assemble, Inken Baller, common room, Jesko Fezer, Gabu Heindl, Lacaton & Vassal und NL Architects, zeigen, dass besondere räumliche Qualitäten, Funktionen und Programme wie auch Schönheit und Luxus, vor allem dann realisiert werden können, wenn die Bewohnenden auch die Handelnden sind - sei es in der mitbestimmten Planung oder im selbstverantwortlichen täglichen Gebrauch.Die Herausgeber*innen Marieke Behne, Christoph Heinemann und Justus Griesenberg haben die Reihe Kooperative Standards im Rahmen ihrer Tätigkeit im Arbeitsgebiet Architektur und Stadt (HafenCity Universität Hamburg, 2017-2022) entwickelt, wo sie sich insbesondere mit situativen und relationalen Dispositionen im urbanen Handlungsraum auseinandergesetzt haben.
