The opening chapter introduces "Construct" as an architectural, academic and methodological concept, including its interdisciplinary approach combining history, critical theory, ethnography and visual studies. Six independent chapters then explore specific recent manifestations around the world - the Oresund bridge between Copenhagen and Malmoe, tower cranes in Dubai, Shibuya pedestrian intersection in Tokyo, Venice skatepark in Los Angeles, Limehouse Link tunnel in London and the Singapore Flyer observation wheel in Singapore. Each is interpreted in its own context and as a manifestation of its shared architectural typology worldwide.
Construct will appeal to those interested in the architecture, urbanism and experience of contemporary cities worldwide, and particularly those working in the fields of architecture, media studies, planning, sociology and urban geography.
