Conceptualised within a framework that draws from physical and human geographical thought, this title of Architectural Design examines the possibility of an architecture that actively produces its external, ecological conditions. The architecture here scans and modifies atmospheres, arboreal zones, geothermal exchange, magnetic fields, habitats and toxicities – enabling new and intense geographical patterns, effects and sensations within architectural and urban experience. \u003ci\u003eTerritory\u003c\/i\u003e charts out a space, a territory, for architecture beyond conceptualisations of context or environment, understood as that stable setting which pre-exists the production of new things. Ultimately, it suggests a role for architecture as a strategy of environmental tinkering versus one of accommodation or balance with an external natural world.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eEditorial \u003ci\u003e(Helen Castle).\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Guest-Editor \u003ci\u003e(David Gissen).\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTerritory: Architecture Beyond Environment (\u003ci\u003eDavid Gissen\u003c\/i\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEat Me … Drink Me … (\u003ci\u003eSean Lally\/WEATHERS\u003c\/i\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Tree Canopy as Blueprint (\u003ci\u003eMitchell Schwarzer\u003c\/i\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe Ecological Facades of Patrick Blanc\u003c\/b\u003e (\u003ci\u003eMatthew Gandy\u003c\/i\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBugs, Bats and Animal Estates: The Architectural Territories of ‘Wild Beasts’ (\u003ci\u003eBen Campkin\u003c\/i\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Material Transformations of AMID (cero9) Social Oxygen Balloons (\u003ci\u003eDavid Gissen\u003c\/i\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIt’s in Your Nature: I’m Lost in Paris (\u003ci\u003eJavier Arbona\u003c\/i\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eToxic Territories (\u003ci\u003eDavid Gissen\u003c\/i\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Living: Surface Tensions (\u003ci\u003eJordan Geiger\u003c\/i\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAmphibious Territories (\u003ci\u003eIla Berman\u003c\/i\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Aurora Project (\u003ci\u003eJason Kelly Johnson and Nataly Gattegno (Future Cities Lab)\u003c\/i\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Perils of Historical Geography: On a Pretended Lost Map to a Legendary Sunken Forest (\u003ci\u003eEdward Eigen\u003c\/i\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eLocal Code: Real Estates (\u003ci\u003eNicholas de Monchaux\u003c\/i\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat Has Happened to Territory?\u003c\/b\u003e (\u003ci\u003eAntoine Picon\u003c\/i\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eInterior Eye.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAshmolean Museum, Oxford (\u003ci\u003eHoward Watson\u003c\/i\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBuilding Profile.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAntwerp Central and Liège-Guillemins, Belgium (\u003ci\u003eDavid Littlefield\u003c\/i\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePractice Profile\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eecoLogicStudio (\u003ci\u003eTerri Peters\u003c\/i\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSpiller’s Bits.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFiddling While the World Burns (\u003ci\u003eNeil Spiller\u003c\/i\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUnit Factor.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEmergence and the Forms of Cities (\u003ci\u003eMichael Weinstock\u003c\/i\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUserscape.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eRelational Interactive Architecture (\u003ci\u003eValentina Croci\u003c\/i\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eYeang’s Eco-Files.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGreen Footstep: A Tool for Evaluating a Building’s Life-Cycle Carbon Footprint and Informing Carbon Decisions During the Building Design Process (\u003ci\u003eMichael Bendewald, Victor Olgyay (RMI) and Ken Yeang\u003c\/i\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMcLean’s Nuggets\u003c\/b\u003e (\u003ci\u003eWill McLean\u003c\/i\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSite Lines.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMAXXI, Rome: Zaha Hadid Architects (\u003ci\u003eMark Garcia\u003c\/i\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Architecture [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Architecture\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Architecture%20%5BAM%5D%22\"\u003eAM\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Academy Press","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52278024241432,"sku":"9780470721650","price":29.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9780470721650.jpg?v=1781456117","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/territory-architecture-beyond-environment-paperback-softback-9780470721650","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
