Digital Cities

Guest-edited by Neil Leach

What is the impact of digital technologies on the design and analysis of cities? For the last 15 years,

the profound impact of computer-aided techniques on architecture has been well charted. From the

use of standard drafting packages to the more experimental use of generative design tools and para-

metric modelling, digital technologies have come to play a major role in architectural production. But

how are they helping architects and designers to operate at the urban scale? And how might they be

changing the way in which we perceive and understand our cities?

•Features some of the world’s leading experimental practices, such as Zaha Hadid Architects,

R&Sie(n), Biothing and Xefirotarch.

•Takes in exciting emerging practices, such as moh architects, LAVA, kokkugia and THEVERYMANY,

and work by students at some of the most progressive schools, such as the AA, RMIT and SCI-Arc.

•Contributors include: Michael Batty, Benjamin Bratton, Alain Chiaradia, Manuel DeLanda, Vicente

Guallart and Peter Trummer.

September/October 2009 Profile No 201

Architectures of the Near Future

Guest-edited by Nic Clear

In this highly pertinent issue, guest-editor Nic Clear questions received notions of the future. Are the

accepted norms of economic growth and expansion the only means by which society can develop and

prosper? Should the current economic crisis be making us call into question a future of unlimited

growth? Can this moment of crisis – economic, environmental and technological – enable us to make

more informed choices about the type of future that we want and can actually achieve? Architectures of

the Near Futureoffers a series of alternative voices, developing some of the neglected areas of contem-

porary urban life and original visions of what might be to come. Rather than providing simplistic and

seductive images of an intangible shiny future, it rocks the cosy world of architecture with polemical

blasts.

•Draws on topics as diverse as synthetic space, psychoanalysis, Postmodern geography, post-econom-

ics, cybernetics and developments in neurology.

•Includes an exploration of the work of JG Balard.

•Features the work of Ben Nicholson.

November/December 2009 Profile No 202

Patterns of Architecture

Guest-edited by Mark Garcia

Pattern-making is ubiquitous in both the natural and manmade world. The human propensity for pattern

recognition and fabrication is innate. Encompassing the historical, vernacular and parametric, this title

explores the creation, materialisation and theorisation of some of the world's most significant and spec-

tacularly patterned spaces. It investigates how interiors, buildings, cities and landscapes are patterned

through design, production and manufacturing, use, time, accident and perception. It also brings into

focus how contemporary advanced spatial practices and CAD/CAM are now pushing patterns to encom-

pass a greater range of structural, programmatic, aesthetic and material effects and properties.

Extending patterns far beyond the surface notion of style and decoration, Patterns of Architecture

assesses how and why the deployment of patterns is shaping the future of architecture.

•Analysed through a multidiscipinary and international series of essays and designs from architects,

engineers, academics, researchers and expert professionals in the field.

•Key contributors include: Roger Penrose, Klein Dytham, Hanif Kara, Patrik Schumacher and

Alejandro Zaera-Polo.
