Maggiori informazioni sul libro
The European City would be nothing without the constant coming and going of its inhabitants, whether they be refugees, tourists, guest workers, expats or digital nomads. The ebb and flow of migrants, sometimes staying for generations, sometimes a mere couple of days, has a profound effect on how we perceive, administrate and design our cities. Sometimes doing our best to draw people in, sometimes struggling to keep them out, sometimes celebrating the presence of our visitors, sometimes denying their right to even be here. In this book, Crimson brings together a cast of European cities that are marked by migration, represented through compelling essays by local scholars. These cities are also the source of a Catalogue of one hundred projects that tackle the issue of migration in many different ways and on different scales. The essays, the Catalogue of projects and Crimson's manifesto-like introductory essay, make for a book that demonstrates how planning and architectural design can play a crucial role in making the Western European city into a resilient and exciting City of Comings and Goings.
