Von der Industriebrache zur Oase: New Yorks neue High Line
New York schwebt im siebten Himmel seit der Umgestaltung von Manhattans High Line – einem stillgelegten Streckenabschnitt eines Bahnviadukts für Güterzüge, der in eine faszinierende Park-Promenade verwandelt wurde. Doch im Projekt der Architekten Diller Scofidio + Renfro ging es nicht nur darum, eine Flanierstrecke zu gestalten. Architonic hat anlässlich der diesjährigen ICFF mit den Initiatoren der Umnutzung der High Line gesprochen und zeigt im Folgenden auf, warum die High Line einen katalytischen Effekt auf die architektonische Entwicklung ihrer Umgebung hat.

Chris Redfern shouldn’t worry himself about youth. The British-born designer is only 36. For one-third of his life he has worked with Ettore Sottsass. And since Sottsass’ death in December 2007, Redfern has deftly led the studio in closing one chapter and starting a new one.

A series of new architecture commissions and exhibitions suggests that museums are no longer in the business of pageantry. In this second part of a series examining post-spectacle museums, architect Brad Cloepfil talks about the phenomenon of 'collecting' cultural architecture, and how his own museum designs aim both for spectacle and counterpoint with it.

Sarasota Revisited: Architonic explores the architectural legacy of Florida's Modernist gem of a city
The 'Sarasota School of Architecture' was coined as an historical term by architect Gene Leedy in the 1980s to describe the unique mid-century, European-Modernism-meets-Florida architecture of the city. Here, we examine how the physical legacy of progressive architectural practice in Sarasota has (and sometimes hasn't) been preserved and reinterpreted.

Peter Cook: On Lines and Shadows

Maine Journal: Needles in Haystack
Driving along Maine’s intestinal coastline, words and phrases like “bottom line” and “hardscrabble” appear in street and farm names. Appropriate: The local climate can be challenging, and its craggy land able to drive an Anne Proulx character to madness.

Over Site: how Caracas's new cable-car system is making the city's favelas more visible
Once so disenfranchised that they didn't even appear on maps of the city, Caracas's favelas are, thanks to projects such as the technically and politically remarkable MetroCable transport system in San Agustín, acquiring a social legitimacy. Here, we talk to architect Alfredo Brillembourg, co-founder of the multidisciplinary practice Urban Think Tank, about the development of the cable-car system and how it works to fill in those cartographic blanks.

The Unlimited Ambition of Limited-Edition Design: in conversation with Ambra Medda and Craig Robins
Love it or hate it, limited-edition design has proved over the last few years that it's more than just a passing trend. No one event has done more to encourage the growth of this particular market than Design Miami. With its European edition, Design Miami Basel, fast approaching, Architonic caught up with director Ambra Medda and co-founder Craig Robins to survey the 'design-art' landscape and do some future-gazing.

Maine Journal
No design tour of Maine is complete without a stop in Portland. This tiny city is the largest in the state. Somehow, that’s emblematic: Despite all its efforts to be cosmopolitan, muscular coastline and forests are always nearby.
