Contemporary architecture is shaped by both local and global conditions, making its understanding multifaceted. Gert Wingårdh and Rasmus Wærn, a prominent architect and a renowned architecture critic from Sweden, explored this complexity by selecting around fifty key terms and concepts, such as Branding, Collaborators, Corporate, Desire, Future, Everyday, Ornament, and Wheelchair. This exploration culminated in a unique dictionary featuring humorous illustrations and original contributions from notable figures, including Denise Scott Brown, Kenneth Frampton, Massimiliano Fuksas, Hans Ibelings, Peter Blundell Jones, Vittorio Magnago Lampugnani, Hans Ulrich Obrist, Juhani Pallasmaa, Joseph Rykwert, Jaime Salazar, Axel Sowa, and Wilfried Wang. A standout feature is a text by Nobel laureate Orhan Pamuk. This work invites readers to engage with the pivotal themes that define modern architecture, offering insights into its diverse influences and the interplay between local uniqueness and global trends.
