Featuring innovative international design, architecture and spatial interventions in a trans-disciplinary platform, the magazine Talking Cities stretches the boundaries of architecture and urban design and shifts our perceptions of contemporary city spaces. It is a dense collage of statements and designs that exemplify the dialogue on reconfiguring and reactivating the marginal, residual and public spaces of our cities. Talking Cities investigates the fragmented conditions that make up our present day urban realities.
Das Magazin Talking Cities vereint innovatives, internationales Design, Architektur und räumliche Interventionen in einer multidisziplinären Plattform. Es erweitert die Grenzen von Architektur und Städtebau und verändert unsere Wahrnehmung der zeitgenössischen Stadt. Mit einer dichten Collage aus Statements und Konzepten wird der Dialog über die Neustrukturierung und Reaktivierung der marginalen, verwaisten und öffentlichen Räume unserer Städte greifbar gemacht. Talking Cities deckt neue Sichtweisen auf die fragmentierten Bedingungen auf, die unsere alltäglichen urbanen Realitäten ausmachen.
Die Publikation erschien begleitend zur internationalen Architektur- und Designausstellung
