Architecture is an interminable business-current construction projects are planned years in advance; those being envisioned today will achieve realization only years in the future. But without a clear vision that brings us closer to the objective of a truly liveable city, statements of intention will never be translated into reality. The present publication, Gestaltungsleitlinien Stadtraum am Beispiel Dresden (Design Guidelines for Urban Space with Reference to Dresden) is intended primarily as a guidebook, and aims to provide orientation around a shared vision for clients, planners, and architects. "Yes, that's what I'd like, the Baltic in front of me, Friedrichstraße behind me...." This is by no means a question of dreamscapes in the spirit of Kurt Tucholsky. The cities we inhabit have already been built, and they might have gaps and ruptures that are also reflective of social turmoil. How, then, can we deal with existing structures in a way that allow truly liveable cities to emerge in the future-or to be preserved in the present? Striking graphic illustrations visualizing urbanistic, urban planning, and architectural design principles An analysis of Dresden's urban structure and proposals for the further development of the existing architectural inventory Nine theses on the development of building culture in Dresden

Bilingual edition (English/German) / Zweisprachige Ausgabe (deutsch/englisch) While most high-rise buildings continue to be built in China and the USA, Australia and especially Singapore have recently emerged as hotspots for high-rise architecture. Furthermore, the trend toward mixed-use skyscrapers, which have repeatedly been among the finalists of The International High-Rise Award since 2014, continues unabated. Former specific features such as extensive greening or the construction of high-rise clusters have long since become standard. Due to the shortage of suitable building sites and growing environmental awareness, existing buildings are increasingly coming into focus in high-rise construction. Best High-Rises 2024/25 presents thirty-two of the most exciting recently completed high-rise projects that combine sustainability, external form, internal spatial qualities, and social aspects into exemplary designs that point the way to the future. Each of these projects is comprehensively presented with photos and plans. The International High-Rise Award is presented every two years. Previous winners include 3XN (2022), OMA (2020), Benjamín Romano (2018), BIG (2016), Stefano Boeri (2014), Ingenhoven Architects (2012), WOHA (2010), and Foster + Partners (2008). 20 years of The International High-Rise Award 32 of the most interesting recent high-rise projects worldwide in texts, plans, and photos New focus: conversion of existing high-rises

Planetare Urbanisierungsprozesse haben unser Verständnis von Stadt und Urbanismus grundlegend verändert. Dennoch bleiben Planungsansätze häufig in einem Dualismus von Stadt und Land verhaftet, der die komplexen Wechselbeziehungen und materiellen Ströme von Waren und Menschen in diesen immer stärker vernetzten Stadt-Land-Regionen nicht abbildet.Das Handbuch Urban-Rural Assembly versammelt Analysen und Best Practices am Beispiel von sich dynamisch transformierenden Reallaboren in einer Stadt-Land Region im Osten Chinas. Mithilfe von innovativen Methoden und Analysekonzepten wird diese Region multiperspektivisch erfasst, um so wichtige Ansatzpunkte für eine klimafreundliche und sozial gerechte Transformation zu erreichen. Darüber hinaus bietet es Handlungsanleitungen für die kollaborative Erforschung, Leitbildentwicklung und Planung verschiedener Stadt-Land-Regionen weltweit. Handbuch zur nachhaltigen Entwicklung von Stadt-Land-Regionen Planungshilfe für Wandlungsprozesse in dynamischen urbanen Räumen Umfassendes kartografisches Material und Analysen zu Reallaboren im Osten Chinas
