Stefan Devoldere, David Peleman (DGEO) and Jantje Engels have edited the new issue of OASE Journal for Architecture, entitled ‘Optimism or Bust?’, which is now available.
This issue focuses on the specific position of optimism in architecture and urban design. Where in the design and construction process is it hiding? In what circumstances does it rear its head? What causes it to be sidelined? How do design practices change under the yoke of optimism? How do boldly optimistic choices manifest in projects? And how persistent is this ever-good-natured optimism in the face of a fickle reality?
