‘The is to memory while for challenge respect allowing reinvention’ • Prague: a historic city protected by rigorous heritage laws and zoning regulations. Shenzhen: a rapidly expanding vision of the future. On the surface, the two locations could not feel more different in their approaches to demolition, (re)building and repurposing. But scratch deeper and you’ll find a shared drive to shape identity through spatial planning, and to create compelling, innovative urban environments. Built-world communications specialist LAUREN TEAGUE spoke to IVAN BOROŠ, partner at Prague-based Edit! Architects, and OLE SCHEEREN, founder and principal at global architecture practice Büro Ole Scheeren, about approaches to renovation, when it’s time to build anew, and what designers around the world can learn from these examples – as cities everywhere search for ways to evolve without erasing themselves.
MATTERS OF MEMORY • From reinterpreted ancestral practices and revived crafts to inverted ruins and reactivated ceremonials, the projects in this Look Book navigate the spaces between memory and possibility. They invite us to engage with histories – personal, cultural, architectural and ecological – while imagining new ways of inhabiting and preserving our world. Each work reflects on the legacies we inherit and the futures we shape. Together, they suggest that creativity is both a contemplative act and a call to action: a way to steward cultural memory and cultivate resilience for what lies ahead.
