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-density 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
character 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
architecture 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 and Alex Wall, and practitioners including
Zvi Hecker, Vito Acconci, Mutopia, Manuel de Solá-Morales, Martha Rosler and Manuel Vicente in a
search for new collective architectures within the dispersed city.

Versatility and Vicissitude: Performance in Morpho-Ecological Design
Guest-edited by Michael Hensel and Achim Menges
This third AD by the guest-editors of the highly successful Emergence and Techonologies and Techniques titles
shifts the morpho-ecological design project into the realm of performance. Whereas the dictionary
definition of performance – to ‘carry out an action’ or ‘to fulfill a task’ – invokes a tired utilitarian
debate, Hensel and Menges inject the meaning of the word ‘performance’ with an entirely new life. In
this context form is redefined not as the shape of a material object alone, but as the multitude of effects,
milieu of conditions, modulations and microclimates that emanate from an object’s exchange with its
specific environment; a dynamic relationship that is perceived and interacted with by a subject. A
synergetic employment of performance and morpho-ecological techniques combine to create integral
design solutions that will render an alternative and entirely innovative new model for sustainability.
This issue presents the historical precursors and precedents for this approach and presents the current
state of the art of morpho-ecological design. Key contributors include: Klaus Bollinger, Lawrence Friesen of
Buro Happold, Manfred Grohmann of Bollinger & Grohmann, Aleksandra Jaeschke, OCEAN NORTH,
Remo Pedreschi, Defne Sunguroglu, Peter Trummer and Michael Weinstock.

Interior Atmospheres
Guest-edited by Julieanna Preston
What does one mean when describing a room as atmospheric? Does it allude to a space that has been
designed, stylised or even thematised? Is it a spatial quality conditioned by one’s perception? Does
atmosphere originate from material attributes inherent to interior finishes and décor? Is it simply the
dramatic effect resulting from skilful use of lighting and colour? Is atmosphere an immersive ambience?
How is atmosphere crafted? Does it have a critical edge, literally and theoretically?
Visually exciting and provocative, Interior Atmospheres combines contemporary projects and
interviews alongside analytical essays. Authors such as Rachel Carley, Ted Krueger, Malte Wagenfeld and
Hélène Frichot explore the distinctions between visible and invisible realms within architectural design.
The technological interface between design and atmosphere is tested through digital and creative
material works by Petra Blaisse, Kevin Klinger, Gregory Luhan, Andrew Kudless, Walter Niedermayr,
Kazuo Sejima and Ryue Nizhisawa, LaMonte Young and Marian Zazeela, Joel Sanders and Karen Van
Legnen, Scott Gowans and Steve Wright and Lewis Tsurumaki Lewis Architects. Paul James, Mary Anne
Beecher and Lois Weinthal probe the physical limits of atmosphere in regard to site, 'the outside' and
interiority. Contributors and projects straddle the boundaries of design, art and architecture in order to
gain a fuller understanding of atmosphere’s elusive and pervasive presence.
