a+u’s September issue features Grafton Architects, founded in 1978 by Yvonne Farrell and Shelley McNamara. Rooted in their home city of Dublin, where topography, street life, literature, language, and people are deeply interconnected, the work of Grafton appears “drawn out of something subterranean . . . richly layered as physical constructs and as cultural interventions,” as described by literary critic Finton O’Toole in his commentary. These qualities allow Grafton’s architecture to “coexist in different temporalities.” Since winning the competition for Luigi Bocconi University’s new faculty office and auditorium facility in 2002, Grafton has proven to be as adept in internalizing and enhancing the streetscape of Georgian Dublin, as that of Lima, Milan, or Toulouse, through a series of large-scale public buildings. While there is an unmistakable tectonic power to Grafton’s approach to form, structure, and materiality, their buildings quietly yield to human scale to achieve an intimate and humane sense of comfort. This monograph highlights 25 projects, ranging from early residential to their most recent work. In addition to guest commentaries are 2 short pieces by Grafton that marked pivotal moments in the firm’s early half-century career and remain perennially germane to their design philosophy: an allegory about human habitat and environment drafted 27 years ago as a proposal for a competition, and a manifesto posing as a question to colleagues for the 2018 Venice Architecture Biennale.

Quelle place les femmes occupent-elles dans les domaines de la conception spatiale que sont l'architecture, l'urbanisme, le paysage et le design urbain ? Telle est la question placée ici au cœur des réflexions d'actrices et d'acteurs du secteur et de spécialistes en sciences sociales. Le constat général est celui d'un paradoxe entre une forte représentation féminine parmi les étudiants en architecture et un manque de visibilité des femmes dans l'exercice professionnel. Une réalité qu'incarnent leur moindre accès à la commande et leur rémunération très inférieure à celle de leurs confrères. Mesurant l'importance des inégalités entre hommes et femmes et identifiant les mécanismes de domination dans ces catégories de métiers, les contributions à cet ouvrage invitent toutefois à dépasser les notions de " femme " et de " féminisation " pour leur substituer le paradigme de " genre ". Ce nouveau prisme s'avère plus fort et mieux adapté à l'analyse des transformations de cet univers spécifique, et propre à impulser une évolution des pratiques, des manières de penser le bâti et, plus largement, des usages de la ville

"Me traiterait-on de diva si j'étais un homme ? " demandait Zaha Hadid, l'une des architectes les plus célèbres au monde, qui dut néanmoins faire face à la critique. Cet ouvrage rend hommage à l'architecture remarquable réalisée par les femmes à travers le monde. S'y côtoient les icônes du XXe siècle comme Eileen Gray, Charlotte Perriand ou Lina Bo Bardi et les talents contemporains comme Manuelle Gautrand, Kazuyo Sejima, Grafton Architects ou encore Dorte Mandrup, dont l'affirmation a donné son titre à cet ouvrage, célébration inédite de l'architecture au féminin.

Old Europe is beginning to show signs of renewed vitality, to judge from the results of this latest edition of the European Union Prize for Contemporary Architecture: Mies van der Rohe Award 2003. Not only were 269 works selected; not only are the number of competing countries steadily increasing, especially in Eastern Europe; but the standard of the entries, particularly of the winning projects and the 40 runners-up, are arguably the most impressive ever. Of special note is the predominance of projects that address new sites and/or new programs. The winning project encompasses all this and more: Zaha Hadid's tram station in Strasbourg is at once a strategy, something open-ended, playful, imperfect, intelligent, and playful. But it is also resolved and unafraid to identify with conventional architectural qualities. Additionally, this year's jury has singled out Jrgen Mayer as the most promising young designer in Europe for his first work, the Scharnhauser Park town hall. Other works shortlisted by the jury include the Chassa Park Apartments by Xaveer De Geyter Architects, the Palais de Tokyo by Lacaton & Vassal Architects, and Hagen Island by MVRDV. Accompanying photographs and plans of the 41 nominated projects are essays by some of architecture's most important critics.
