Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Landscape Tunings: An Urban Park at the Danube explores the city's littoral landscapes with video-essays, drawings, walks, public installations, and exhibitions-each spotlighting the sensate-space where the city meets the Danube's edge. It then showcases the bottom-up and tactical design appr…oaches of the Stadt Park Donau Donau-Loop project, which aims to foster the spatial embodiment with the riverine environments facing the present challenges of the anthropogenic era. With contributions by Günther Vogt, Andres Lepik, and Simone Schimpf, Landscape Tunings projects the role of littoral landscapes as a medium for the collective wellbeing of the city.Flowing through ten countries, the Danube is one of the most international rivers in the world. Regardless of its scale, economic output, and ecological relevance, the Danube's landscapes act as cornerstones for civic interaction while 'touching' numerous urban fabrics. Initiated in 2013, the Stadt Park Donau Donau-Loop project in Ingolstadt derives from a three-year design study in collaboration with the various communities in the city. Rather than totalizing, and related to the key German concept of 'Stimmung' (tuning of space), the design interventions are spatial tunings to foster community access, wonder and delight. These interventions intensify the particularities of the river landscapes with its distinct environments, and leverage the potentials of the riverbanks as a 'thick' space in the pressing commitments to social wellbeing. The Stadt Park Donau Donau-Loop project was exhibited at the Museum of Concrete Art and Design in Ingolstadt. The exhibition shared the multiple scopes and scales of the design, inviting the public to envision the Danube's inherent beauty as a spatial component in the urban fabric of one the fastest growing cities in Germany.(Also available in German: Landschaft Stimmung - Ein Stadtpark an der Donau).

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - XXL-XS represents the emerging discipline of ecological design by assembling a wide range of innovators with diverse interests. Geo-engineering, synthetic biology, construction site co-robotics, low-energy fabrication, up-cycling waste, minimally invasive design, living materials, and molecul…ar self-assembly are just a few of the important advances explored in the book. At one extreme are massive public works, at the other, micro to nano-sized interventions that can have equally profound impacts on our world. From terraforming to bio-manufacturing, a whole new generation of designers is proposing unique ways of confronting the difficult challenges ahead. In this way design becomes a totality of relationships that affects all disciplines, which can no-longer be thought of as self-contained fields, each handled separately by narrowly focused specialists. Globalization demands a restructuring of the profession, as we know it. This requires a new breed of generalists who can work across fields and engage research on multiple sites around the globe. Today we need planetary designers versed in the craft of integral design.Our thesis is therefore both global and performative in scope. We need an architecture that is more than just a constellation of bio-picturesque images, digitally generated surface effects, and conventional materials. We seek a holistic architecture that uses the best techniques to connect directly with existing natural systems while creating a renewed ecology that can sustain itself well into the future. Along these lines, many of the projects featured in this book simply abandon the old tropes and construction processes of the past by creating numerous green alternatives that proliferate along unexpected pathways.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - (Re)stitch Tampa is a design research platform. It includes essays and proposals from the international design ideas competition (re)stitch Tampa. Discourse framed by the underlying themes of the competition, examines (re)designing the city with natural systems and envisioning a new design fo…r the city's civic realm through connective urban landscape hybridized with ecological infrastructure which (re)stitches the city back to its river.This publication critically examines these issues through essays, in addition to showcasing selected competition entries, the results of (re)stitch Tampa. The discourse distills the design schemes and examines their possibilities as viable alternative urban models for development, which reconsider the relationship of landscape to the city and urban redevelopment. It also proposes how the schemes might operate as transformative urban design agents and as the underlying connective tissue which (re)stitch the city to the river and bring the river and its ecologies into the city.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This compendium of essays and projects presents a confrontation of radically dissimilar projects which underscores the exploration of architectural empowerment at the core of the office's work. Four themes are presented in four volumes: Cultural Resistance, Occupying Earth, Public Prerogatives, and…Territory and Transgressions.Architects build in and for a system that is not only pathological, but toxic. It is ruining the only planet we have, and we are clearly at the end of what is still possible within this ecology. The architecture presented in this book is a form of resistance - one which actively engages in the societies and territories it is inscribed in and which presents an antidote to the accelerating banalization of our everyday environments. The search for singularity is not a search for formal distinction or a fetishism of the architectural object, but instead the desire to inscribe oneself into a unique territory and moment in time.
