With this second collaborative issue between Archis Foundation and Nieuwe Instituut, the magazine is now a cross-pollinator between its editorial content and the programmes of the Nieuwe Instituut itself. “World Tour 2023” is about appreciating “the naïve” and using it as a tool for enrichment. Readers embark on an itinerary through 22 contributions, covering a range of developments in design and architecture around the globe. From loss and transformation to parables and politics, it touches on pop culture in Japan, Indonesian post-colonialism in Jakarta, Mexican airports, Australian ugliness, Indian urban and cultural development, the next generation of American cars, and much more.
