“Architecture is a collective knowledge produced through the efforts of a multitude.within their multitude, two forms of collaboration unfold: a synchronic one, and a diachronic one, which connects all design attempts in a multifaceted Architectura Universalis.
The Possibility of collaboration now relies upon a broader “agreement with” all previous architecture.To put it another way, collaboration today is based on collaborations of the past. Indeed, it is possible to collaborate precisely because there is a shared body of knowledge that provides the basis for agreement. Collaboration is possible because architectural knowledge is one and given, and thus inevitably shared”
SAN ROCCO is a magazine about architecture.
SAN ROCCO does not solve problems. It is not a useful magazine.
SAN ROCCO is neither serious nor friendly.
SAN ROCCO is written by architects. As such, SAN ROCCO is not particularly intelligent, or philologically accurate. In SAN ROCCO, pictures are more important than texts.
SAN ROCCO is serious. It takes the risk of appearing naive.
SAN ROCCO will not last for ever. There will be no more than 20 SAN ROCCOs for the single five-year plan.
San Rocco is the name of a place in Monza, not a nice place. Giorgio Grassi and Aldo Rossi engaged in a design competition for this place in 1971. The project was not built; ordinary housing blocks were built instead.

Inner Planets. Cameron Jamie. Verlag der Buchhandlung Walther König.
Cameron Jamie has been working with different medias such as drawing, sculpture, film, photography, performance, music and painting. For over two decades one recurring theme in his work is the mask. The work “Inner Planets” is a group of 43 handcrafted masks sculpted in clay. The artist connotes it with the multilayered paradox of the mask. In so doing he sets in motion an interplay between inside and out, between being and seeming, between what is our own and what is of others. The publication shows the work of art in all its facettes including installation shots of its presentation at the Palmenhaus des Alten Botanischen Gartens in Zurich. The book is designed by the artist himself.

Cameron Jamie arbeitet mit unterschiedlichen Medien wie Zeichnung, Skulptur, Film, Photographie, Performance, Musik und Malerei. Das Werk “Inner Planets” ist ein Ensemble von 43 Masken, die er aus Tonerde geformt hat. Der Künstler konnotiert das Werk mit der vielschichtigen Paradoxie der Maske. Dadurch setzt er das Spiel zwischen Innen und Außen, von Sein und Schein, vom Eigenen und Anderen usw. in Gang. Die Publikation zeigt das Werk in allen seinen Facetten inklusive Installationsphotos der Ausstellung im Palmenhaus des Alten Botanischen Gartens in Zürich und wurde vom Künstler selbst gestaltet.

Torsten Blume explores aspects of nudity in modernism, Zvi Efrat writes about Arieh Sharon’s “tropical architecture” in Nigeria, Brenda Danilowitz proves the influence of pre-Colombian art on Anni Alber’s work with textiles, Carola Ebert and Stefan Locke offer a cultural history of the bungalow as a global architectural phenomenon, Regina Bittner describes the transcultural exchange between Indian and European modernism and Marion von Osten analyses the insidious propaganda used by the Nazis to discredit the Weißenhof settlement in Stuttgart as an “Arab village”.
