Abstract

AGENDA is a catalog of 365 days, like a diary or journal: a collective narrative, personal and subjective. It documents the work and thinking of JDS Architects over a specific year marked by crisis, beginning on September 15th, 2008, the day that Lehman Brothers filed for bankruptcy. The form of the book exploits the double meaning of its title, presenting the absurdities of day-to-day architectural practice while also staking our intent. Rather than a definitive direction, our agenda is a definitive attitude - of eagerness, enthusiasm, and optimism, of criticality and concern, of fun and inquiry. It is a directive, a motivation to act, at times without clear knowledge of where our agenda will lead. “Change,” the buzzword of the last U.S. presidential campaign, is the order of the day, and the task of AGENDA is to explore what kind of change will be needed if architects are to assume a political and social agency in this new landscape. Bringing together diverse forms of content, AGENDA is a product of vigilant observation, introspection, and engagement with outside thinkers and collaborators - artists, curators, politicians, authors, economists, journalists, developers, educators, and architects. To see some inside pages, follow theselinks: http://issuu.com/actar/docs/jds http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pBhq2lKU53k AGENDA is a record of search and research, providing more questions than answers. AGENDA is unapologetically naive. AGENDA is an unorthodox architecture novel. AGENDA demystifies the practice of architecture, revealing process, research, fun, and failure. AGENDA looks to both the past and the future.

Abstract

Built Unbilt revisite 16 ans du travail de Julien De Smedt, de ses début chez PLOT avec Bjarke Ingels en 2001 en passant par le travail de JDSA à la création de 'Makers with Agendas' avec William Ravn en 2013. La section Built de ce livre donne une vue d'ensemble du travail construit de Julien De Smedt, vu par la lentille du photographe Julien Lanoo. La section Unbuilt est un récit sélectif par JDS des projets qui ne sont pas présents dans le monde construit. In this book, Julien De Smedt investigates the realms of architecture and its future possibilities. ?(Un)Built JDS(A)? is to be read from a professional perspective, as an exploration of innovation and new forms of design urbanity. It is a didactic yet personal approach to urbanity matters. Projects realised by Julien De Smedt Architects form the basis of the featured content, covering all aspects in the making of architecture, with all financial implications, etc. of operating in the real world accounted for. Even if some of the investigations seem out of scale or even utopian, they all stem from actual commissions and share a genuine desire to address individual needs and topics, such as how to create more basic, low tech urban living qualities and activate spaces giving them more air, making them greener and providing more light and views. The selected projects aim at enhancing the diverse aspects of the programme so that the resulting buildings each become more than a single entity driven by a single purpose.
