Description
This publication brings together a diverse range of essays on post-war reconstruction, co-published with Ukrainian platform CANactions. In light of the current conflict in Ukraine, it explores historical examples and geographic contexts to address the challenges and opportunities facing post-war reconstruction and war-related issues within architecture.
The book considers various aspects of urban planning, education, building materials, and innovative spatial relations, focusing on the human experience of the built environment after a war. A preface by editor Bohdan Kryzhanovsky sets the tone for this reader, which presents theoretical and practical explorations of an urgently timely topic.
With contributions from various experts in the field, including Gruia Badescu, Jan Knikker, Fokke Moerel, Silke Langenberg, Peter Larkham, John Pendlebury, Wendy Pullan, Andrea Urushima, Lynnette Widder, and Patrick Zamarian, this publication offers a basis for wider conversation as well as a handbook of ideas for architects and planners.
