Rationalist Traces
Guest-edited by Andrew Peckham, Charles Rattray and Torsten Schmiedenecht
Modern European architecture has been characterised by a strong undercurrent of rationalist thought.
Rationalist Traces aims to examine this legacy by establishing a cross-section of contemporary European
architecture, placed in selected national contexts by critics including Akos Moravanszky and Josep Maria
Montaner. Subsequent interviews discuss the theoretical contributions of Giorgio Grassi and OM Ungers,
and a survey of Max Dudler and De Architekten Cie’s work sets out a consistency at once removed from
avant-garde spectacle or everyday expediency. Gesine Weinmiller’s work in Germany (among others) offers
a considered representation of state institutions, while elsewhere outstanding work reveals different
approaches to rationality in architecture often recalling canonical Modernism or the ‘Rational
Architecture’ of the later postwar period. Whether evident in patterns of thinking, a particular formal
repertoire, a prevailing consistency, or exemplified in individual buildings, this relationship informs the
mature work of Berger, Claus en Kaan, Ferrater, Zuchi or Kollhoff. The buildings and projects of a younger
generation – Garcia-Solera, GWJ, BIQ, Bassi or Servino – present a rationalism less conditioned by a con-
cern to promote a unifying aesthetic. While often sharing a deliberate economy of means, or a sensual
sobriety, they present a more oblique or distanced relationship with the defining work of the 20th century.

Made in India
Guest-edited by Kazi K. Ashraf
The architectural and urban landscape of India is being remade in most unexpected and exuberant
ways. New economic growth, permeation of global media and technologies, and the transnational reach
of diasporic Indians have unleashed a new cultural and social dynamic. While the dynamic is most
explicit and visible in the context of the Indian city, a different set of transformations is taking place in
rural India. Yet, as the political writer Sunil Khilnani notes, the world’s sense of India, of what it stands
for and what it wishes to become, seems as confused and divided today as is India’s own sense of itself.
It is a challenge, in these conditions, to explore how the deeply entrenched histories and traditions of
India are being re-imagined, and how questions of the extraordinary diversity of India are being reinter-
preted in its architectural and urban landscape. AD traces this compelling story through the writings of
Prem Chandavarkar, Sunil Khilnani, Anupama Kundoo, Reinhold Martin, Michael Sorkin and others, and
new projects and works in the Indian subcontinent.

Cities of Dispersal
Guest-edited by Rafi Segal and Els Verbakel
Questioning the traditional boundaries between cities, suburbs, countryside and wilderness, this issue of
AD explores emergent types of public space in low-dense urban environments. Cities of Dispersal
describes this new form of urbanism; decentralised, in a constant process of expansion and contraction,
not homogenous or necessarily low-rise, nor guided by one mode of development, typology or pattern.
While functionally and programmatically, dispersed settlements operate as a form of urbanism, the
place of collective spaces within them has yet to be defined and articulated. The physical transformation
of the built environment on the one hand, and the change in our notion of the public on the other – due
to globalisation, privatisation and segregation – call for renewed interpretations of the nature and char-
acter of public space. The concept of public space needs to be examined: replaced, re-created or adopted
to fit these conditions. What is the place of the public in this form of urbanism, and how can architec-
ture address the notion of common, collective spaces? What is the current socio-political role of such
spaces? How does the form and use of these spaces reflect the conception of the public as a political (or
nonpolitical) body? And can architecture regain an active role in formulating the notion of the collective?
These and other issues are addressed through essays, research projects and built work by distinguished
writers such as Bruce Robbins, Albert Pope, Margaret Crawford and Alex Wall, and practitioners includ-
ing Zvi Hecker, Vito Acconci, Mutopia and Manuel Vicente in a search for new collective architectures
within the dispersed city.
