Artificial Intelligence for Urban Planning
This book aims to introduce planners to AI, outlining essential concepts, terminologies, and methodologies. AI now promises to reshape urban planning, but as with many technological innovations, AI also introduces ethical, practical, and organizational challenges. Understanding both AI's current capabilities and its limitations is essential for planners, even as we acknowledge the rapid and unpredictable nature of its evolution. Chapters address some of these complexities, not by providing definitive answers, but by introducing urban planners to core AI topics. The book shows how planners can effectively use AI in their daily practices, engage constructively with technical specialists, and critically assess the appropriateness of these technologies in different planning contexts. This book will be of interest to both urban planning professionals and researchers.

Abundance Not Capital
What if architecture were not an instrument of capital? How to imagine and build a non-extractivist and non-exploitative architecture. Capital's voracious appetite forces architecture into a regime of "never enough." The current realities of building involve extraction and exploitation, which, in turn, cause climate breakdown, environmental ruin, alienated labor conditions, and the destruction of local construction knowledge. But what if we could do architecture differently? What does non-extractivist architecture look like? In this book, Angelika Fitz and Elke Krasny introduce the concept of abundance to call for a paradigm shift in architecture. Using as its example the exceptional work of architect Anupama Kundoo, this book shows that non-extractivist and non-exploitative architecture is undeniably possible. Kundoo, born in Pune, India, weaves together innovative technological experimentation and traditional crafts. With careful consideration of local resources, building skills, climate, and environment, she makes buildings that embody spatial beauty and graceful materiality. Abundance Not Capital is a manifesto for creating a future-forward, alternative architecture. Contributors: Shumi Bose, Jordan Carver, Peggy Deamer, Madhavi Desai, Angelika Fitz, Rupali Gupte, Ranjit Hoskote, Elke Krasny, Charlotte Malterre-Barthes, Shannon Mattern, and Laurie Parsons.

Toronto Interiors
A survey of the leading interior designers and architects who are collectively defining the city's signature style. As perhaps the most diverse city in the world, Toronto is a veritable patchwork of cultures, styles, languages, and neighbourhoods--each with its own distinct architecture. With heritage rowhouses in Cabbagetown, glass towers overlooking Lake Ontario, narrow Victorian Bay-and-Gables in the Annex, grand Georgians in Rosedale, and wartime bungalows on the edges of the city, there truly is something for everyone. The interiors of these distinct home styles are no less unique, but, when taken together they exemplify the push and pull between heritage and modern sensibilities that has created a true design movement in this city on the lake. In Toronto Interiors, design writer Catherine Macintosh profiles 30 established and emerging local studios that are evolving the living spaces and streetscapes for the next generation of Torontonians. Whether bringing their talents to innovative renovations or new builds, these studios are crafting homes that are beautiful but not precious; homes that are made for how we live now. Within these deeply personal and highly functional spaces are moments of true creative brilliance--the artistic use of light, the seamless interplay between indoors and out, unique focal points, a careful mix of natural materials, and a delicate balance between old and new. The exemplary homes in Toronto Interiors feel at ease in their settings, adding to the city's unique urban landscape. Toronto Interiors spotlights a moment in time when high design and individuality are expertly applied by designers challenging the status quo, inspiring readers to look at their own spaces through a new lens. Featuring 90 projects brought to life in stunning full-colour photography, Toronto Interiors is a book to both read and dream on.
Another Modernism
Filling an important gap in design history, Another Modernism examines how domestic space was conceived by the US home economics movement in the first half of the 20th century. In doing so, it tells the story of how home economists-mainly women-developed design that challenged the traditional architecture of American farm communities and countered the approach of modernist architects. Uncovering unacknowledged contributions of women to domestic architecture and design history, it reveals early instances of participation, sustainability, and accommodating the disabled body in domestic design. In contrast to the canonical modernist model of space, which is primarily visual, home economists centered on a user who interacts with the interior in a tactile, bodily way. Although both strove for efficiency, they understood it differently: whereas for many of the mainstream modernists the term 'efficiency' meant functionalist aesthetics, for home economists it signified design solutions intended to ease the labor of an average American homemaker. The book argues that the home economists' focus on tactility, the user's corporeality, movement, access, preferences, and her engagement in the design process, constituted an alternative model of modern architecture - a popular and largely rural modernism centered on the specificity of the female user and her personal experience of the domestic interior. Based on little-known archival material, and with an emphasis on mostly female researchers, designers, and users/occupants, Another Modernism will appeal to architects, design historians, and anyone interested in gender, women's and disability studies, as well as non-visual approaches to design.
