Tectonic for Non-Extractive Architecture

Tectonics for Non-Extractive Architecture

Architectural Logics for Emergent Contexts
Josep Ferrando, Jordi Mansilla, Ricardo Devesa, Francisco Cifuentes, Marta Bugés (eds.)

This publication is a summary of the content, ideas and thoughts that were discussed in the seminar on the current situation of the Mediterranean forest, systems of timber construction, stakeholders, designers, and industries that are shaping the non-extractive architectural principles it fosters. With the seminar The Tectonics of Non-extractive Architecture, compiled here, ETSALS introduced ALEC, a new research line in the framework of La Salle R+D, aimed at making our society, industry and designers ready for a post-carbon future based on new strategies for architectural design and construction.

With Contributions of
Steve Webb, Margarita Jover, Paco Lloret, Peris+Toral Arquitectes, Sebastián Martorell, Dima Fadel, Gloria Schönburg, Martina Blázquez, Pau Garrofé, Lisa Marie Guerrero.

Climax Change!

Pedro GadanhoClimax Change! represents the much-needed overview of how climate change and the current environmental emergency will affect the practice of architecture.

How architecture must transform in the age of ecological emergency Pedro Gadanho Climax Change! offers an overview of how the current environmental emergency will impact the practice of architecture. At a crossroads in which the construction sector and built environment produce nearly 40% of greenhouse gases accountable for global warming, architects are just starting to acknowledge their complicity in an impending disaster. In need of a paradigm shift similar to that of the Modern Movement, architecture desperately requires clear guidelines and targets so as to operate its inevitable transformation towards an ecologically-friendly design logic. From historical analyses of ecocide or the environmental avant-gardes, to topics such as decarbonization, degrowth, the Great Transition and the aspirations of Green New Deals, this book features ten essays around today's climate change debates, bringing them home to architectural thinking.

Logics of Evolution for the Contemporary Contexts

Ricardo Devesa, Marta Bugés (eds.)A collection of instalments compiling the works of the students of the Master in Integrated Architectural Design during the academic year 2020/21.

Master in Integrated Architectural Design 2020/21 Ricardo Devesa & Marta Bugés (eds.) This collection of instalments compiles the works of the students of the Master in Integrated Architectural Design during the academic year 2020/21. The program objectives are to promote innovative architectural design integrated with the wide range of skills on technical and cultural knowledge that contemporary architecture demands. The course is organized in 5 logics: environmental, social, digital, tectonic and cultural through which the students explore how architectural design can adapt to the context in which they operate. Their systems of methods and principles are expanded to face challenges such as climate change, technological disruptions, economic and geopolitical collapses, and demographic movements, among other major global changes. With Contributions of Kiel Moe, Interboro, Ciro Najle, bosch.capdeferro, Marina Otero, T.J. Demos, Ferran Vizoso, Javier García-Germán, Alex Ivancic, Pau Bajet, María Langarita, Carles Baiges, Cristina Gamboa, Anna Font, Edouard Cabay, David Tàpies, Francisco Cifuentes, Arturo Franco,

IaaC BITS 9

Manuel Gausa, Areti Markopoulou, Jordi VivaldiThe IaaC BITS journal is a collective container of knowledge developed by the Advanced Architecture Group of the Institute for Advanced Architecture of Catalonia

Black Ecologies Manuel Gausa, Areti Markopoulou, Jordi Vivaldi The IaaC BITS journal is a collective container of knowledge developed by the Advanced Architecture Group of the Institute for Advanced Architecture of Catalonia. The journal collects material stimulating, promoting and developing research in the diverse areas of Advanced Architecture through a multi-disciplinary approach. With the 9th issue, IaaC BITS is entering a new editorial phase pushing research, generating dialogue and presenting novel ideas and solutions for the current global challenges. In the face of a hyper-technified world, we need more technology. In the face of an inhuman world, we need more otherness. In front of a perturbed world, we need more alienation. And above all, in front of an adulterated world, we need more artifice. In this scenario, biological agents, ecological agents, technological agents and cultural agents coproduce a reality that is no longer built from promethean epics, relativist ironies or primitivist nostalgia, but
