'LINA Blueprints: (un)common practice' starts tomorrow in Lubljana!
The “un” in uncommon acknowledges that community is never seamless. It holds friction, difference, and negotiation.
Join @dpr-barcelona.bsky.social at the whole program + at 'Materials and libraries' with TU Vienna, Luma Atelier.
Over the next few days, the @linacommunity.bsky.social is gathering in Ljubljana. The event is open to all: come join us at the Faculty of Architecture and the Museum of Architecture and Design - MAO!
Our dear author (Architecture is Climate, as MOULD member) Anthony Powis published 'Architecture as the practice of accountability: extractivism, externalities and alternatives'
Open access essay which seeks for new modes of action which disentangle those relations and move towards accountability.
Imperfect care as a practice. That framing is generous and honest. Care that waits for perfection never arrives. The togetherness, the situatedness, the world-making: all of it happens in the mess, not after the mess gets cleaned up.
«Every move one makes as a spatial practitioner is haunted by the shadow of economic orthodoxies.»
We're so proud of this book!! 📚 🌱
Photo of the book in a kitchen, beside to a bit dirty stove. The name and ISBN of the book written over the photo.
Short abstract of what the book is about, in black letters over a pink-ish background. At the top, in a pixelated or dot-style font, it reads “PLANET KRVAVICA.” Below that is a more formal serif title: “Surveying Local Futures Through Practices of Imperfect Care.” An ISBN number appears underneath: 978-1-3990879-3-2. The central portion features a long, italicized quotation discussing architecture, care, and planetary thinking. It reflects on how urban futures are interconnected, emphasizing relationships between local and global contexts, and between human and non-human systems.
List of contributors to the book.

"Planet Krvavica – Surveying Local Futures Through Practices of Imperfect Care" is now beautifully printed and soon available to all.
A book about togetherness, situatedness, world-making and about new directions of care, architecture, places and solidarities.

Earlier today, we learned that our dear comrades and distributors Idea Books suffered from a terrible fire that affected their warehouse in Amsterdam.
We send our deepest solidarity and love to the entire team, as well as to all our colleagues who may have lost books in this unfortunate event.

"What are the boundaries of interdisciplinary studies, and can an integrative approach to pedagogy be considered interdisciplinary? I invite the reader to keep these questions in mind, and I will return to them in closing."

Stay tuned for this beauty, dear comrades!
'Vulnerability is Power' our dear authors MOULD (from the book Architecture is Climate) for Failed Architecture.
"Although vulnerability is universal does not imply that it plays out in a uniform way." In this text they explore vulnerability, spatial imagination, relations of power and more.

Yes, the French booksellers association forced the Paris Book Festival to drop Amazon sponsorship due to Amazon "seeking to flood the market with fake AI-generated books, promoted by fake reviews, written by fake readers [which rise] to the top of fake rankings"💥 MORE OF THIS, PLEASE 💥
It is!! 🫶🏼
Photo of the book over a black surface. It has a light grey soft cover with the title “In the Spaces Between” in white text.
^ A thoughtful, well articulated, beautiful review of our book ‘In the Spaces Between,’ about the past 10 years of the Arts at CERN program.
The book was edited by Monica Bello, with editorial assistance of Ana Prendes and beautifully designed by @nina-cc.bsky.social
“With its emphasis on process rather than outcomes, the book offers a rare window into how artistic inquiry operates inside a laboratory environment (…) it traces the intellectual and imaginative terrain that lies between them, a space defined not by synthesis, but by ongoing negotiation.”
"D’aquesta esquerda profunda neix, com un raig de sol que s’escola per una escletxa, una pregunta carregada de dinamita: com acabem amb aquesta forma turbocapitalista d’organitzar l’espai a què ens han condemnat i comencem a posar la vida al centre?"
Toni Morrison said, “My responsibilities are to do the best work I can do and to be the best human being I can be.”
”You must know when you're at your best… And, and no matter what, you must be unblinking, be really unblinking and really, really true."

We're convinced that access to 📚 should not be punished for political reasons—on the contrary, in moments like this is when we need them more than ever.
So, despite this, our 📚 can be downloaded with a "name your price" system. By paying what you can, titles are accessible no matter the territory
Screenshot of our online shop. It has a photo of people reading (seen from above) with a red filter. Over the photo it says, in white letters: "BOOKS ARE LOUDER THAN BOMBS" We explore how architecture melts in the intersection with politics, technology, economy and social demur. We oppose to individualism, consumerism and accumulation. We propose to change the limited metrics that architecture is based on and pose human relations in the center of our debates. NOTE: We regret to inform that we're temporarily suspending book shipments to the U.S. due to the tariffs' policy imposed by the current presidency.
We are extremely saddened for writing this note in our online shop, but in the past months it has become totally unsustainable as an indie press to send books to the U.S.
That's why we're temporarily suspending book shipments to the U.S. due to the tariffs' policy imposed by the current presidency
