Zeppelin update
We worked on our bookazine formula. It’s even more of a book than before, yet still connected, fresh and rich, as a magazine should be.
The format is just a bit smaller, just to better fit in a casual bag, be lighter and also easier to read in bed or at your desk, even if it will have more pages now, 224!The dossier rules: it takes about two thirds of the issue and aims to become a reference for the chosen subject.
There are even more large photos and almost only original texts, a lot of research and analysis, but also poetry and quite different viewpoints.
Orientation will be easier as well as choosing how deep you want to go in any material. That’s mainly because we moved all technical drawings—plans and details—in a separate section. But cross‑references between this drawing part and the main article are highly visible. Articles thus become more accessible, without losing their depth and professional elements.
Starting from now, an even more serious and merry publication. And one with the things that remain.

The architects’ deliberate lyricism-devoid text (below) is missing any reference to aesthetics or “philosophy”. However, when I visited the (yet unfinished, at the time) museum with Miguel Roldán, I felt it as a poetry-filled project, even yielding a slight dream-like character: the light turns almost material, the same bright colour is layered over new and old elements, to which we may add the delicate articulations and curved gaps cut in the old walls, and even the repetition and obsessive overlapping of vertical metal items.

The former Technical School of Aviation from the outskirts of the town of Mediaș, at the exit towards Sighișoara, was about to be degraded into disappearance. However, lately, it has been changing functions, some buildings are disappearing, others are rehabilitated, new buildings pop up. A social program – protected workshops for vulnerable people – has found a place in the former mess hall. ADP’s project is an example of reinventing a construction, but also of re-densifying the town’s outskirts, of building a public pole as well as an argument in favour of limiting the uncontrolled expansion of the town.
