Glocal Architecture
Yearbook, 2019 of the Budapest University of Technology and Economics, Doctoral School of Architecture
GLOCAL [adjective] reflecting or characterized by both local and global considerations.
All essays and shorter articles of the yearbook 2019 are focusing on the topic of glocal architecture (i.e., intercultural architecture, local adaptations of international challenges). The book tries to catch this contradictory term by visual tools. Colors and typography aim to represent both mechanical and organic, both artificial and natural, at the same time, while the layout continues the arrangement of the previous issues, however slightly redesigned.
