Our cities today are an amalgamation of various choices and experiences of the past, made by our users, designers as well leaders. A by-product of cultures that abide in it, today's urban environment faces fastidiously changing technology and transforming lifestyle choices. ‘Communication’ has had a large impact on ‘commute’ and the meaning of ‘meeting’ is no more limited to physical. There has been a paradigm shift in the cultural perception of the built and personal boundaries and territorialities have strengthened tremendously. The quality of indoor and outdoor in an urban space determines the quality of interpersonal relationships as well and health and well-being of its users. It is hence important to plan and design spaces that are capable of accommodating transformation. In today’s scenario ‘Resilience’ is the only constant that helps keep the cities stable. The quality and strength of this resilience determines the quality of Urban life.

Open Source Design is the development of ideas without the retention of intellectual property. The goal of this initiative is to propagate a community of designers that are enthusiastic to selfless creation. The Open Source Design Library is a by-product of ARC.HV's experimental study, The 4th Dimension. The products currently range from furniture pieces, installations, jewellery, modular shelters and animal pods. The objective is to use locally available materials consciously with minimum wastage while following a DIY method of making or easy assembly in construction. The Open Source Design Library is also supported by Makers Asylum, who we are grateful to have as the prototyping partners. Download the brief here.

Nurturing Architecture: Practice, architecture education and wellbeing
The theme of Nurturing Architecture explores the discipline as both processes and constructions with an ethos of care, of providing nourishment and of supporting growth and development. Inherent in the multiple interpretations of nurturing, is the notion of wellbeing, and the ways in which architects and educators consider the wellbeing of future and current generations of users and other stakeholders, including our communities of architects and students.
Humankind is at a crossroads. A climate crisis that threatens ecosystems and rises social instability. A fast-growing population leading to Earth's resources being consumed faster than ever. A still in progress global discussion about racial and gender issues. A technological revolution disrupting societies and markets —including the design and construction field. And an economic and pandemic crisis as a stress test for all of us.
In this context, architecture has been navigating through sequential changes over the last twenty years with the rise and latter consolidation of new technologies, tools, formats, topics, scales, and interdisciplinary approaches, along with the emergence of the Internet that led towards a disruptive decentralization of the architecture production and discussion.

Call for Papers, inForma Issue 14 ‘Guilty Pleasures: Spaces, Places, and Routines’
Where uncertainty, division, separation, havoc, and disease befall communities worldwide, many of us have resorted to embracing ways to bring solace, gratification, indulgence, and joy into the spaces we inhabit. Rather than setting out to work on an issue that directly and explicitly discusses the problems of our times as the focus, our 14th Issue sets out to critically examine the spaces, places, and routines that give us pleasure because of—and despite—the chaos. Reminded of Bernard Tschumi’s words in “The Pleasure of Architecture”, where he posits that “the ancient idea of pleasure still seems sacrilegious to contemporary architectural theory”, this issue of informa aims to study pleasure as a tool with agency.
