Another Kind by David Leventhal
PLP Architecture presents ten recent projects as case studies to examine the emergence of a new typological fluidity and as markers to survey the cultural landscape of the past decade. The last decade has seen an accelerated evolution of typologies. Today's cities are marked by a growing digital presence and the emergence of a global sharing economy; shared spaces have increased our social and sustainable focus, drastically altered our understanding of ownership and responsibility, and redefined our experience of public and private domains. Through this multi-layered infrastructure and pluralistic dissection, Another Kind breaks down the high walls of architecture to highlight how we have evolved and to speculate on what we can learn for the years that lie ahead.
Architecture, Plp: - PLP Architecture is a London-based group of architects, founded by four partners, Lee Polisano, David Leventhal, Karen Cook, and Ron Bakker. The studio was formed in 2009 as a platform for typological innovation with a mission to investigate how shifts in cultural practice and emerging technologies combine to establish new kinds of spatial experience. Through a commitment to social, economic and environmental ideals, the studio addresses the evolving possibilities of living and working in the city.
