Quaderns 233: Used Space
"Used Land ultimately examines the possibility of drawing temporary maps which constitute a possible biography for a site. At the same time, this issue presents a range of mechanisms for cleaning up, covering over or, in the best of cases, regenerating on the basis of the memory of the place which is altered: other narratives which cover the territory with new strata or scrape at the earth to bring to the surface episodes which have been covered over." Includes a range of architecture, landscape & projects including work by Josep Llinas, Mecanoo, Juan Navarro Baldeweg & writing by Paul Virilio John Berger & more. Quaderns, Spain, 2002.$A55.00

Quaderns 241: Revisited
This issue marks the start of a new phase in the trajectory of “Quaderns d'Arquitectura in Urbanisme”. In this issue, a feature that is common to all projects selected is the fact that the reply they offer lies in architecture's capacity to generate potential. That is, it is not so much a matter of constructing an immutable ideal model as establishing the parameters according to which reality is manifested in a different way.Quaderns Spain 2004 241pp$A55.00

Quaderns 242: Technique
 
Features 'Visiting the Stadium', talking about the Portugal Eurocup Stadium; Do it Yourself Speed Metal, & Digital Craftmanship &Constructed Nature. Quaderns Spain, 2004, 140pp,$A55.00

Quaderns 243: Time
One of the forces driving speculative thinking in Western culture is the ongoing attempt to understand & find means of interacting with a changing system. Time has always been one of the big questions to be thought about, whether in purely speculative terms or with a view to artistic creation. The attempt to define time & its impact on architecture becomes more complex if we look at some recent examples of architecture.
This issue covers urban development & the projects of Blai Perez & Miguel Roldan, The Israel Museum project which is recounted by Philipp Misselwitz & Teresa Gali introduces the issue of the temporary nature of plant systems & working with changing materials. Quaderns Spain, 2004, 140pp $A53.00
