Résumé:
The projects exhibited in this edition of StudioEast showcase a variety of student work, dealing with multifaced issues such as the environment, social and material culture, transportation, immigration, urban design, place-making, form, programming, etc. Some projects address singular issues, others multiple. Some design studio themes may be dependent on natural conditions and student design explorations exhibit reactionary gestures along with long-term sustainable goals.

Résumé:
With texts by Peter Buchanan, Brian Carter, Thomas Fisher, Kenneth Frampton, Karl Habermann, Robert Ivy, Christine Macy, Robert McCarter, Juhani Pallasmaa. The Ghost International Architectural Laboratory, better known as 'Ghost Lab' or 'Ghost', is the research laboratory of MacKay-Lyons Sweetapple Architects. The Ghost Lab began as a critique of architectural education in North America in the 1990s and represents an alternative to the current standard of practice. Ghost is rooted in the hands-on master-builder tradition, emphasizing an intimate interaction between master and apprentice in response to the increasingly virtual nature of architectural design.

Résumé:
When Marjorie Hill graduated in 1920 as Canada's "first girl architect," she was entering a profession that had been established in Canada just 30 years earlier. For the Record, the first history of women architects in Canada, provides a fascinating introduction to early women architects, presented within the context of developments in both Europe and North America. Profiles of the women who graduated from the School of Architecture at the University of Toronto between 1920 and 1960 are illustrated with photographs of their work and include archival material that has never before been published. The final chapter on contemporary women in architecture showcases contributions by leading women architects across the country, from Halifax to Vancouver to Iqaluit. For the Record also provides current information on schools of architecture in Canada and includes a list of other resources to encourage young women who are thinking of pursuing careers in architecture. Foreword by Eva Matsuzaki.

Résumé:
n 1950, a young Vancouver architectural apprentice was handed a small house project that his boss was too busy to take on. The apprentice, Ron Thom, took the simple plan and rectangular foundation that had been roughed in, and transformed it into a groundbreaking work of architecture that gained national fame. Inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright and Richard Neutra, but using local wood and paying careful attention to its verdant oceanside setting, Thom created a landmark for the new architectural movement known as West Coast Modernism. The client, Dr. Harold Copp, was himself a trailblazer, the first head of the physiology department in the University of British Columbia’s new Faculty of Medicine and a research pioneer. Generously illustrated with both vintage and contemporary architectural photography, line drawings, and photographs of the architect and residents, The Copp House is the story of a cultural landmark on the shores of Vancouver.

Résumé:
Patkau Architects is known for creating innovative, sculptural buildings that convey artistic expression through the purposeful use of materials. "Patkau Architects: material operations" reveals the architectural philosophy and techniques that drive the firm's extraordinary constructions. Working directly with materials'bending them, breaking them, feeling their texture, mass, and strength provides a depth of understanding that visual observation alone cannot. The firm's creations demonstrate how attending to and playing with specific materials yields a refreshed and expanded perspective on the possible. "Patkau Architects: material operations" investigates how the qualities of commonly available construction materials and unconventional techniques produce buildable, expressive forms with inherent structural capacities and evocative identities.
