Smooth City
Against Urban Perfection, Towards Collective Alternatives
2023 || Paperback || René Boer || Valiz
In cities around the world a new urban condition is spreading

sanitized spaces and new technologies compresses urban
life into a seamless experience. While the demand for safe,
clean, and well-functioning urban environments is understandable,

Notes on an Incomplete Architecture
On the Bewitchment of Intelligence And the Nature of Habitat
2023 || Paperback || Michael W. Mehaffy || Mijnbestseller.nl
All human-made structures are “incomplete,” according to author Michael Mehaffy – that is, they embody abstract information that necessarily leaves out essential aspects of reality. This important concept from mathematics and philosophy has new relevance for today’s human challenges, Mehaffy argues. For “incompleteness” need not be a problem – but we must understand its nature, and be prepared to work toward a “right adjustment of the process of abstraction,” in the words o...
