This ground-breaking quarterly aims to act as an international forum for practitioners and academics by publishing cutting-edge work covering all aspects of architectural endeavour. Generously illustrated throughout, Architectural Research Quarterly is edited with busy practitioners and academics in mind. Contents include building design, urbanism, history, theory, environmental design, construction, materials, information technology, and practice. Reviews of significant buildings are published at a length and in a detail matched today by few other architectural journals. Articles in arq 6:3 include: Letters: Research and the RIBA; Lea's Pottery; The 2001 RAE dissected: some facts and figures; No hope, no fear; Clearwater Garden: a study in design research and collaboration; Digital canopy: high-end computation/low-tech construction; Archigram's invisible university; Richard Neutra's Venetian lecture; (Re)examining the Citicorp case: ethical paragon or chimera?; Sligo Air; Book reviews.
