The selection of projects presented in this issue, as well as the introductory essays, open to a broad debate on the theme of housing and urban densification, prefiguring alternative development scenarios to the current trend. A trend that, by reducing people to mere users of standardized housing solutions, that responds to market logics, produces increasingly congested cities. Cities that need to be rethought starting from density, considered as a qualitative rather than a quantitative parameter.

The essays and projects presented in this issue were selected to document a new approach to architecture in China. They offer a comparison of the work of international offices, foreign and well-known, such as Zaha Hadid and MVRDV, and Chinese, for example, Vector Architects and MAD Architects, with that of Chinese offices working primarily in China, who bring a new sensitivity to the design and transformation of the territory.

The 13 projects selected for this issue represent a multiplicity of themes, lines of research and languages that remain vital to italian contemporary architecture. The private single – and two-family home is one of these themes, as demonstrated by three examples presented. Another theme is the transformation of the existing through interventions of reconfiguration, reuse and expansion, that constitutes one of the principal challenges for architects. A challenge that implies new interpretations and processes of rewriting.

The issue presents a selection of works by architects from the Portuguese, Spanish and Mexican schools, whose research is rooted precisely in the ideative phase, intended as the exploration of strong ties between architecture and the urban and environmental landscape. Mono-materiality, solidity, composition by parts, relations between interior-exterior, value assigned to the theme of natural light and connections with the surrounding natural or artificial environment are just some of the characteristics shared by these projects.
