Summary:
In his "Households" series, artist and architect Mark Robbins has invented the "flip side" of interior design magazines: a compelling series of photographs of actual people in actual homes. A young family at a writers retreat, a gay couple in a Long Island beach house, a husband and wife in a family compound, a single parent in a city apartment: Robbins has photographed residents and environments that comment on contemporary life and relationships. Robbins's design and photography work, which bridges the fields of art and architecture, has long focused on the complex social and political forces that contribute to the built environment. The thoughtfully arranged compositions reinforce, undermine, and even confuse stereotypes; the collection as a whole comments on present-day customs and ways of life in all their complexity.

For this year's competition, architects were asked to explore how technology has altered our sense of space. Their answers not only challenge our sense of habitation but teach us to think beyond the normal and the mundane. This year's winners of the competition—Stephanie Forsythe and Todd MacAllen, Steven Mankouche, Ben Checkwitch, Stella Betts, Lisa Hsieh, and Mike Latham—make use of unusual materials (wooden shipping pallets) while maintaining creative ideas (mobile rooms) in their investigations of the role of modern technology in our daily lives.

Summary:
This book is based on a conference sponsored by the National Endowment for the Arts with the Woodrow Wilson Center concerning strategies for the reuse of dead malls in America's first-ring suburbs. Originally celebrated as community centers, the substantial commercial success of the early suburban shopping center was fleeting, as subsequent generations of ever-larger malls have left behind a landscape of struggling and boarded- up shells. This pervasive condition is presented in the context of the history of public space and the shopping mall. The book includes essays by Robert Fishman, Benjamin Barber and Margaret Crawford and innovative projects for the strip and mixed-use developments by such architects as RoTo, Lewis, Tsurumaki, Lewis, ShoP and Gary Handel + Associates. A roundtable with developers and bankers on obstacles to the redevelopment of failed shopping centers is also included. The review of case studies and projective work is intended to foster a more serious examination of new models for making and using public space.
