Summary: In recent years, there has been an increasing discussion on the design of cities, particularly regarding controversial modes such as defensive, hostile, or disciplinary architecture. Many studies argue that these design concepts lack theoretical grounding, making it challenging to study them from an empirical and normative perspective. This paper aims to define the commonly used terms in the literature and demonstrate their interconnectedness by utilizing a set of philosophical conditions. It also highlights the need for different moral justifications when considering different designs and their corresponding phenomena and conceptualizations.

Summary: This paper examines the changes and lack thereof in 100 years of professional planning in Zanzibar, Tanzania, with a focus on the historic core area known as Ng'ambo. The gap between formal plans and their implementation is examined, particularly in the recent planning initiatives since 2011. The study explores whether inclusive planning has strengthened the citizenship of the urban poor majority or if it has continued the state planning failures for Ng'ambo's residents.

Summary: The article explores the definition and characteristics of mannerism, arguing that the unification of opposites is another important feature in modern and contemporary architecture. This argument is supported through the analysis of works by Andrea Palladio and other opposing concepts. It also points out that mannerist characteristics are less common in current architecture but can be found in various recent projects.

Summary: Green architecture has gained popularity for its environmental benefits, but the evaluation and accreditation of green buildings mostly focus on design and construction rather than their operational stages. This study compares international green building standards with Chinese evaluation guidelines and identifies government regulations, market constraints, and technological criteria as the main obstacles to green building accreditation during the operational phases. The findings stress the importance of collaboration among policymakers, market participants, and technology developers to address these challenges and ensure the sustainability of green buildings.

Summary: This paper explores the use of machine learning models to forecast construction duration and compares the results of four different models. The findings indicate that the artificial neural network and gradient boosting trees models perform better, with the latter also being more computationally efficient. The research suggests that these models can be utilized to assist construction project managers in adjusting resource allocation.

Summary: Deep-plan buildings limit daylight use and result in uneven distribution. This study investigated the impact of building aspect ratio and the implementation of Horizontal Light Pipe (HLP) and shading systems on daylight performance. Results showed that increasing the aspect ratio improved the uniformity of daylight.

Summary: This article presents a generative design exploration methodology that combines a genetic algorithm and the Theory of Innovative Problem Solving to assist designers in problem structuring and decision-making in a multi-disciplinary setting. The methodology allows for investigation of unexpected solutions, application of innovative ideas for resolving contradictory design objectives, and continuous interaction between designers and the search engine. The design case of a mid-rise apartment complex is used to demonstrate the usability and benefits of the developed method.
