Log 49 - Observations On Architecture And The Contemporary City

This edition of ‘Log’ takes stock of the tumultuous and confronting period that has developed in the months since the previous edition went to press last spring. Between the ongoing global pandemic, the Black Lives Matter protests, the Beirut explosion, and the unforgiving forces of nature, there is almost too much to process. Where does all this upheaval leave architecture? In these times of turmoil and introspection, ‘Log’ gathers different voices and stories to present new considerations of collective form, and also offers a special section: The Return of Nature. With contributions by Neeraj Bhatia, Emanuele Coccia, Sylvia Lavin, Gökhan Kodalak, Erin Manning, and others.
