| Cities are Taking New Measures to Mitigate Heatwaves Posted: 29 Aug 2021 10:30 PM PDT Photo by <a href="https://unsplash.com/@pipchristie?utm_source=unsplash&utm_medium=referral&utm_content=creditCopyText">Pip Christie</a> on <a href="https://unsplash.com/s/photos/sydney-suburb?utm_source=unsplash&utm_medium=referral&utm_content=creditCopyText">Unsplash</a> . ImageSydney skyline Prolonged heatwaves have been increasingly common in recent years, and cities are devising various strategies for combating the urban heat island effect. As Sydney experienced blistering summer temperatures of up to 50 degrees Celsius, the authorities have recently banned dark roofs on new homes and mandated lighter-coloured alternatives to reflect solar radiation. In Europe, Athens has taken the example of Miami and hired a Chief Heat Officer, tasked with finding coping strategies as the city confronts with heatwaves and wildfires that prompted a large number of residents to vacate the capital.

| The Spatial Stories of Ousmane Sembène Posted: 29 Aug 2021 10:00 PM PDT Courtesy of Janus Films When examining the world of African cinema, there are few names more prominent than that of Senegalese director Ousmane Sembène. His films 'La Noire de…' and 'Mandabi', released in 1966 and 1968 respectively, are films that tell evocative stories on the legacies of colonialism, identity, and immigration. And whilst these two films are relatively slow-spaced, 'slice-of-life stories, they also offer a valuable spatial critique of the setting where the films are based, providing a helpful framework to understand the intricacies of the post-colonial African city, and the contrast between the African and European metropolises.

| Temporary Architecture: Innovation, Testing-Ground and Entertainment Posted: 29 Aug 2021 09:00 PM PDT Sava Installation / Openact Architecture + Sara Palomar Studio. Image © Marko Mihaljević. Image Beyond "experience tourism" and light entertainment, temporary architecture is a fertile ground for testing ideas, examining places, popularizing new concepts and technologies. Taking a wide array of forms, from disaster relief projects and utilitarian structures to design experiments, architectural statements and playful installations, transient structures showcase alternative visions for the built environment, opening up new possibilities and questioning established norms. As temporary architecture now seems at odds with sustainability imperatives, the following discusses the value of temporary architecture as a vehicle of experimentation, advancing design and engaging communities.

| From Festivals to Schools, Cathedrals, and Bomb Sites: The Story of Mid-Century Modernism in Britain Posted: 29 Aug 2021 08:30 PM PDT The National Provincial Bank in Plymouth, Southwest England, completed in 1959 and designed by the bank's architecture department with BC Sherren serving as chief architect. . Image Courtesy of Elain Harwood The term "mid-century modern" conjures up images of a sharp-suited Don Draper, slender teak cabinets, and suave chairs from Scandinavia. That is, at least, one perspective of the design movement and a view more of 1950s-era Manhattan offices than anything else. But in Britain, mid-century modernism manifested as something slightly different, coming in the form of schools, cathedrals, housing, and an era-defining festival, all eloquently described and illustrated by the prolific architectural historian Elain Harwood in Mid-Century Britain: Modern Architecture 1938-1963.
