Paperback. Condition: New. The book tells the unwritten story of Chicago Studio over 25 years-a semester-long, place-based, experiential learning program harnessing the city as a learning lab through engagement of practitioners, city leaders and neighbourhoods, while also providing pedagogical assessment and a look going forward. The authors have played various roles-lead educator, host firm, mentor-for the programme at various times and have come together to write their collective story. Architects usually write about buildings and their practices, but here the authors write about pedagogy and the collaboration between educators and practitioners. The book presents this unique model and what constitutes the elements for its resilience. It also includes pedagogical assessment of Chicago Studio with other transformational pedagogies globally. Originating in 2002, more than 400 students have benefitted from this programme. It developed from a network of professional and alumni relationships, and persisted as the network grew. The architects, allied professionals, city and community leaders rigorously supported the program through interactions with students - as mentor, critic, community activist, etc. Some contributors are well-known while others are emerging professionals. All have an unwavering commitment - every semester, every year. Over 20 Chicago architecture practices have served as host firms, over 250 allied practitioners, and many other community organisations and neighbourhood residents have impacted the students' education.…

Paperback. Condition: New. NIPPOD. Human history has seen many settlements transformed or built entirely by expatriate work forces and foreigners arriving from various places. Recent migration patterns in the Gulf have led to emerging 'airport societies' on unprecedented scales. Most guest workers, both labourers and mid to high-income groups, perceive their stay as a temporary opportunity to earn suitable income or gain experience. This timely book analyses the essential characteristics of this unique urban phenomenon substantiated by concrete examples and empirical research. Both authors have lived and worked in the Gulf including Qatar, Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates during various periods between 2006 and 2014. They explore Gulf cities from macro and interconnected perspectives rather than focusing solely on singular aspects within the built environment. As academic architects specialised in urbanism and the complex dynamics between people and places the authors build new bridges for understanding demographic and social changes impacting urban transformations in the Gulf. …
