Design through Making

Guest-edited by Bob Sheil

July-August 2005, Proﬁle No 176

Most architects who build do not make buildings; they make information that makes buildings. Making

buildings requires acquiring knowledge not only of the world of information exchange, but also of the world

of making things. It is an expertise that goes beyond the architectural drawing and an expertise that many

designers cannot claim to fully possess or practice.

Design through Making is not only directed at architects, but engineers, educators, fabricators, machine

operators, and anyone with an interest in the manifestation of ideas. It seeks to challenge outmoded notions

that building production is preceded by design and making is merely the cooking of the raw or the end game

where no further design ideas are explored. Here a hybrid mode is recognised where the investigation of

ideas is fully engaged with the tactile, physical nature of architecture and building processes. It is an issue

that celebrates the re-emergence of making, not merely as an immense resource for ideas, experimentation

and customisation, but as a critical resource that will redefine architectural practices.

This title includes the work of Block Architecture, Mark Burry, Thomas Heatherwick Studios and Walter

Pichler. There is a special feature on Japanese traditions in architecture and contributors include: Iain Borden,

David Dunster, Sarah Chaplin, Jonathan Hill and Mark Prizeman.

The New Mix: Culturally Dynamic Architecture

Guest-edited by Sara Caples and Everado Jefferson

September-October 2005, Proﬁle No 177

The New Mix:

Culturally Dynamic

Architecture

We are at a new moment in architecture, when many cultures are contributing to the unfolding of

modernism. This enriching influence is broadening the mix, extending the range available to architecture, of

materials and colours, of evocative forms, of cultural references and of social thinking. In an era of boredom

with monocultures and orthodoxies, there is the almost universal expectation that the metroculture, be it in

London or Beijing, will provide broadened cultural experiences in food, performance, dress and sound. The new

ethnically diverse city is a place of zesty daily encounters/collisions/cohabitation between cultures, a place of

mixed signals, contradictions, delightful confusions: Franco-Japanese cuisine, elite schoolchildren wearing

doo-rags, jazz performed on gamelans - no matter what one's mother culture - we're all getting addicted to

varied rhythms, different emotional emphases, 'other' ideas of beauty. This change is visible in schools of

architecture, at least in the range of students, typically from many ethnicities, none of them constituting a

majority. No wonder, then, that there is increased interest in ways that architecture can incorporate a larger

compass of riches. A rising group of practitioners is meeting the challenge of this broadening cultural

landscape in pursuing strategies of quick switching, layering, reframing. These new architectural expressions

of multiple cultures represent an enrichment that ultimately might help create a more robust modernism,

helping to rescue it from a 'potato blight' of too much sameness.

This issue presents a dynamic cultural mix: Teddy Cruz in Tijuana, Mexico; Steven Holl in Beijing; Iain Low in

South Africa; Jayne Merkel in Queens, New York; Anna Rahman in Bangalore; and Leon van Schaik in Australia.

Sensing the 21st-Century City: Close-up and Remote

Guest-edited by Brian McGrath and Grahame Shane

November/December 2005, Profile No 178

The 21st-century city - defined by the duality of mass migrations to cities and continued sprawl - provides

innumerable challenges and opportunities for architects, designers and planners today. Rapid environmental

changes require scientific monitoring as forests and farmlands depopulate further; vast informal, self-

organised urban settlements develop in the absence of master planning; and hyper-nodes monitor and

influence everything through networked communications, media images, foreign aid and military might.

Remote sensing and hand-held devices combine to create just-in-time delivery of design and planning

services. These have the potential to shape and manage, as never before, vast interconnected ecosystems at

local, regional and global scales. Close collaborations with scientists, decision makers and communities incite

architects to realise new communication and networking skills. As the architect's role is transformed into

that of a designer of the form of information, flows and processes rather than master planner, they will

become the critical actor shaping the cities of this millennium.

Presenting specially commissioned features on Dubai, Cochin, New York, London, Washington, DC and

Barcelona, this issue also encompasses articles by specialists, such as geophysicist Christopher Small and US

Forest Service social ecologist Erika Svendsen, as well as urban designers and architects.

If clean drinking water and public sanitation were the main obstacles to social progress

in the 19th-century city, a healthy diet and access to fresh food for all promises to be

one of the hottest issues for the 21st century. The celebrity cook and self-styled social

reformer Jamie Oliver has captured the zeitgeist with his Channel 4 programme for

British TV ‘Jamie’s School Dinners’. For over a year, Oliver worked with the dinner ladies

of the London borough of Greenwich in a pioneering attempt to bring back freshly

cooked meals. Rose Gray, Ruth Rogers’ partner in The River Café, is also part of this

movement for better school lunches, and has set up a charity to bring trained cooks

into schools. Fresh school dinners are being advocated as a means not only of educating

children about food, but also of providing inner-city children with vital nutrients that

are otherwise missing from their diets, with many of today’s most deprived children

simultaneously malnourished and obese. This is a haunting spectre of a society in which

priorities have somehow been insidiously switched, as a food industry that aggressively

markets junk food to children, and the desire to economise on the unit cost of food on

the school dinner plate, have somehow gained the upper hand.

On the streets of Western cities, the division between the haves and the have-nots

has been made all the more apparent by the gentrification and regeneration of urban

areas supported by a burgeoning restaurant and café culture. Just as diverse and fancy

food retailers often encourage wealthy neighbourhoods to flourish, lower-income areas

can be deprived of the most basic grocery shops and supermarkets selling the full range

of fresh foods (see guest-editor Karen Franck’s ‘Food for the City, Food in the City’ on

pp 35–42). Such a situation is a complex one where urban fragmentation means that

wealthy areas often butt directly onto sink estates, and the type of food available, and

thus consumed, by city dwellers can shift from one end of the road to another. So while

food has become one of the most potent tools for social progress – with the power

to transform city streets as well as the life expectancy of individuals – it can quite

conversely become a force for social exclusion: what happens when local shops pitch

themselves above the means of the poorer section of the community?

Karen A Franck’s issue of Food + the Cityis multifaceted and thoroughly engaging.

By drawing on contributors from a wide range of countries and with very different

perspectives, she presents no single cultural or social point of view. The positives and

negatives of food as a regenerative force in our towns and cities gets in turn talked

up and berated. As in her previous issue of 2 (Food + Architecture,No 6, Vol 72, 2002),

Franck has here displayed a great rigour and stamina in compiling this publication,

bringing together contributions that not only excite but also confound our expectations,

prompting us to ask – at a telling time – entirely new questions of what exactly the

relationship may be between food and the city. 4
