FAKTUR journal essay

We are excited to have contributed to this new issue of FAKTUR with the text ’Continuity and Change - Consideration of Urban Littoral Ecology’ by Magdalena Haggärde and Gisle Løkken - and honored to be represented on the cover and the beautiful poster. In the essay Tromsø Waterfront Lab and the Open Day are used as a case.

Thank you very much to the editors Pep Avilés and Matthew Kennedy and the editorial board.

Congratulations to you and everyone collaborating to make the publication possible.

Thanks also for support to DOGA and KORO.

The journal is available through Motto Berlin.

Hi, it’s been awhile.

We’re extremely excited to report that FAKTUR 04 is complete and will soon be available for purchase.

This issue features articles by Eric Höweler of Höweler + Yoon; Lluís Alexandre Casanovas Blanco; Emma Leigh Macdonald and Ben Goldner; Alessandro Orsini and Nick Roseboro of Architensions; and Magdalena Haggärde and Gisle Løkken of 70°N arkitektur. Book reviews by Daphne Bakker, Florencia Alvarez Pacheco, André Tavares, and our own assistant editor Matthew Kennedy.

Thanks to our fabulous editorial board: Pedro Ignacio Alonso, James Graham, and Ines Weizman. Special thanks also to Catarina de Almeida Brito, Hayley Eber, Mehrdad Hadighi, and Marina Otero.

We are grateful for the ongoing collaboration with our designers, Oficina de Disseny, our copy editor John Wreidt, and our image editor Josep X. Tulleuda Nieto.

The publication of this issue was made possible by the ongoing support of numerous institutions — the Stuckeman School, Penn State University; GSAPP, Columbia University; the School of Architecture, UT Sydney; and the Centre for Documentary Architecture, Bauhaus-University, Weimar — as well as by Mr. Robert P. O’Hara and Ms. Maureen A. O’Hara. And, of course, this issue would not have been possible had we not been fortunate enough to receive a generous organizational grant from The Graham Foundation for Advanced Studies in the Fine Arts.
