Description

We are all improvising. We are all making decisions. And we are all watching each other improvise. Together, we are improvising. Decisions become shared ones. We will have built this city together.
Convivial Ground invites the reader to discover the work of the transdisciplinary European design-build network Constructlab piece by piece. Taking Ivan Illich's understanding of conviviality as departure point, the essays, conversations, stories, and images in the book reflect on the specificities of collaborative practices as situated experiments, as well as on their possible roles in the creation of convivial societies. Exploring contemporary conditions of togetherness, learning, and working, the book is not a "how-to" guide, but an invitation to cooperatively write new convivial narratives.

About the Author
Das transdisziplinare Entwurfs-und-Bau-Netzwerk constructlab verfolgt einen dynamischen Ansatz, der architektonische Konzepte und Bauvorhaben miteinander verknupft, wobei der Schwerpunkt auf Zusammenarbeit liegt. Das Kollektiv bricht mit dem traditionellen Modell der Arbeitsteilung und involviert ein Team aus vielseitig begabten Entwerfenden/Bauschaffenden - sowie Soziolog*innen, Stadtplaner*innen, Grafikdesigner*innen, Kurator*innen, Padagog*innen und Webentwickler*innen -, die den kreativen Prozess vom Zeichentisch in die Praxis ubertragen. Auf diese Weise koennen die Entwurfe auf die Potenziale und Einschrankungen reagieren, die sich aufgrund der Materialien, des Standorts, der Umgebung und Nutzung ergeben.

Joanne Pouzenc ist Architektin, Padagogin und unabhangige Kuratorin. Sie beschaftigt sich in den Bereichen Architektur, Kulturproduktion und redaktionelle Arbeit mit kollaborativen Prozessen und Lernumgebungen.

Alex Roemer ist ein in Berlin lebender Architekt und Zimmermann. Er initiierte constructlab als Plattform und Interessenvertretung fur Entwurfs-und-Bau-Projekte mit Schwerpunkt auf nachhaltigen und situationsbezogenen Ansatzen in spezifischen sozialen Kontexten.

Peter Zuiderwijk ist ein in Den Haag ansassiger Designer mit Fokus auf forschungs- und prozessbasiertes Design, Ausstellungsdesign und Szenografie.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
