Metropolis Magazine - January 2016

En este asunto

We present Game Changers 2016—the annual survey of design icons, this year transforming France’s public housing stock and rebuilding Detroit’s entrepreneurial network, to incubating new post-occupancy measuring technologies in Philadelphia, redefining retail in New York, and even engineering the Chicago Architecture Biennial.

Experts Liam Casey of PCH International (and 2015 Metropolis Game Changer), Aaron Betsky of the Frank Lloyd Wright School of Architecture, Joe Gebbia of Airbnb, Monica Ponce de Leon of the Princeton School of Architecture, design critic Louise Schouwenberg, Christopher Turner of the London Design Biennial, and the Metropolis editors give their predictions on where design is heading in 2016.

Opposites attract as SO-IL principals Florian Idenburg, Jing Liu and Ilias Papageorgiou assemble their design inspirations in this month’s Material Palette.
