Founded in 1896, the AR has a proud tradition of challenge and criticism, scouring the globe for architecture that provokes and inspires, and relying on its immense archive and critically acclaimed writers to shape architectural discourse. Combine this with a rich history of contemporary editorial design and you have a magazine of interest beyond its natural architectural audience. Featuring Damien Hirst‘s wall-mounted pill cabinets on the cover, the ‘Health’ issue considers a variety of healthcare spaces: a children‘s hospital in Zurich; a radiotherapy centre in Granollers; a facility for dementia patients in Oslo; public space in Rio de Janeiro; and a wastewater treatment plant near the Irish Sea. Plus, essays on embracing bacteria in buildings, social housing advocate Irene Barclay, and high death rates for construction workers.
