Why do women architects still not receive the recognition their work deserves? Women in Architecture is a manifesto for the great achievements of women in architecture.

Displacement and Migration as an urban issue

Eons ago, the theory goes, back when human beings first began planning structures, the buildings they designed were of two types. There were houses, to satisfy everyday needs, and there were temples, to satisfy the need for something beyond the everyday. In both cases, the function of architecture was to nurture culture by uniting souls, joining families and congregations into societies and states. Nicolas Schuybroek's designs treat the familiar-homes, offices, hotels, and objects alike-with ...

Travel the world to investigate one of the greatest renaissances in architecture: wood. How has this elemental material come to steal the show at luxury hot spring structures and cutting-edge urban renewal schemes? With 100 projects from China, Chile, and everywhere in between, this global survey explores the technical, environmental, and sensory elements that have inspired a return to timber.

Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools are currently making a dynamic appearance in the architectural realm. Social media are being bombarded by word-to-image/image-to-image/word-to-3D/image-to-3D illustrations of fictive buildings generated by 2D or 3D AI algorithms. However, these “designs”, while visually appealing, have initiated a debate about their substance and the impact they have on conventional design methods. This book investigates the integration of generative ai-assist...
