In exactly one month from now, my book Nelson Goodman and Modern Architecture: A Belated Encounter, will be published by Routledge. In it, I investigate overlooked aspects of both 20th-century architecture and philosophy, and I am particularly honored that it comes with endorsements from heavyweights in architecture, art history, and philosophy, who have kindly read my work. I look forward very much to talking about the book at events in Copenhagen and Aarhus, and beyond, in the months to come. #nelsongoodman #architecturaltheory #architecturalhistory #modernarchitecture #modernism

Traditionally modern is an accurate way to describe this building's #architecture. #structures

Some time ago I wrote a chapter on the importance of the questions we ask in architectural design processes. In the context of inclusivity and universal design, questions can help uncover hidden biases in architecture and help align expectations. The chapter is free to download if you follow the link below.

Ever wondered how to seamlessly integrate universal design into your architectural practice? This chapter attempts to clarify the concept of universal design by developing a list of guiding questions that can be used in architectural practices. This list consists of frequently asked questions (FAQ) in design processes and how an alternative to such questions could look like if we put on our universal design glasses. The aim is to help you towards an alternative way of structuring your design practice when possible. The chapter is written by Marie Christoffersen Gramkow, Marcus Tang Merit, Masa Kajita and Ulrika Stigsdotter, members of the Bevica Foundation's interdisciplinary research network.

Tomorrow, 6:30pm. Join us for a lecture from Architecture by Marcello Galiotto and Alessandra Rampazzo of AMAA. In their talk, the architects describe the concept of the Seemingly Simple, which “embraces the comprehensive research and frames the process, focusing on the attention to tradition, historical memory, the mutual influence of the arts, the craftsmanship involved in the use of materials.” https://lnkd.in/gjdG4nNZ

Published today! ARCHITECTURES OF THE TECHNOPOLIS: ARCHIGRAM AND THE BRITISH HIGH TECH by Annette Fierro Comparing the work of Archigram and High-Tech architects thematically, this book explores the historical and cultural context of London to reveal their influences and interconnections and why two such radical groups emerged from a seemingly conservative city. This book examines the relationships between the work of Archigram and that of the British High-Tech architects, groups that were based in London and developing in the 1960s and 70s.

The making of Mexico City: "As a coda, SMA’s work itself could be seen as a synecdoche of the city. It has woven through the urban form for almost 100 years as it has evolved into one of today’s archetypal mega-cities. Over that period SMA have evolved from sophisticated modernist architects to imaginative designers and developers, intimately interested in the commercial, social, cultural and religious life of the city where they are based."
