Besides, History

What role can history play in contemporary architecture practice?Rather than adopting a postmodern attitude or evoking past discussions and historical architectural forms, Go Hasegawa, Kersten Geers, and David Van Severen address contemporary issues in their work while remaining in dialogue with history.Even with distinct pasts and contexts, affinities emerge in shared concerns and approaches. In their conversations, history becomes a tool that can be used in production, rather than just an object of study.This book features newly produced plans, sections, models, and perspectives for projects by Go Hasegawa and OFFICE Kersten Geers David Van Severen, juxtaposed with reference material chosen from the CCA Collection. Introduced and annotated by the architects, these images form a visual manifesto for a unique relationship to history.Published after the exhibition, Besides, History: Go Hasegawa, Kersten Geers, David Van Severen at Canadian Centre for Architecture, Montreal (10 May - 15 October 2017).

The Elgar Companion to Geography, Transdisciplinarity and Sustainability

With contributions from top geographers, this Companion frames sustainability as exemplar of transdisciplinary science (critical geography) while improving future scenarios, debating perspectives between rich North/poor South, modern urban/backwards rural, and everything in between. The Companion has five sections that carry the reader from foundational considerations to integrative trends, to resources use and accommodation, to examples highlighting non-traditional pathways, to a postscript about cooperation of the industrialized Earth and a prognosis of the road ahead for the new geographies of sustainability.

This book presents a comprehensive exploration of the emerging concept and framework of telecoupling and how it can help create a better understanding of land-use change in a globalised world. Land-use change is increasingly characterised by a spatial disconnect between its main environmental, socioeconomic and political drivers and the main impacts and outcomes of those changes. The authors examine how this separation of the production and consumption of land-based resources is driven by population growth, urbanisation, climate change, and biodiversity and carbon conservation efforts. Identifying and fostering more sustainable, just and equitable modes of land use and intervening in unsusta...

Dit boek presenteert het allereerste overzicht van de jonge hedendaagse Belgische architectuur aan de hand van een selectie van twintig recente projecten van formaat, gerealiseerd door een jonge generatie veelbelovende architecten. Deze productie wordt in perspectief geplaatst door Geert Bekaert. De nestor van de Belgische architectuurkritiek gaat terug in de architectuurgeschiedenis van dit land, en laat zien hoe de nieuwe generaties zich van dogma's bevrijdt die het debat in de 20e eeuw beheersten. De jonge Belgische architecten houden niet vast aan een voorgevormd idee over wat architectuur zou moeten zijn. Ze zijn niet verbonden door één formele benadering of een culturele identiteit, maar door een nieuwe en open attitude ten opzichte van hun beroep. Vanuit de samenleving begrijpen ze dat elk project zijn plaats inneemt in een sociale en culturele context, en ze accepteren de relativiteit van architecturale oplossingen. 0Exhibition: BOZAR, Brussels, Belgium (27.9.-25.11.2012).
