The second decade of the 21st century fundamentally rewrote the demands on architecture, the role of the designer, and the power of the profession, say these architects. They suggest ways to use these changes to rethink existing models and create resilience for the future, fundamentally asking whether the non-standard buildings and interventions shaped by the past 10 years can coalesce to form a new composite urban reality. Their topics include the screen wins: office as spectacle, cities read and cities written: city catwalk, the multidimensional city: connected mobility, transplanting urbanity: building as a city, and gravity is nothing: vertical nature.
