Breakthrough time

Edited by KWK Promes

TIME OF BREAKTHROUGH is the moment when architecture acquires new meanings and changes previous paradigms. In this issue edited by the KWK Promes studio, we try to capture this moment and consider what it actually is. The UN report on climate change, the war across the eastern border and the pandemic have significantly changed our perception of the world and reality. For a while we believed in the end of history, but we were quickly stripped of our illusions. There is no end of history, we need to keep up with the changes and respond to them as best we can. This issue is a conversation, what's more, it doesn't end on the last page of the February issue - it will continue in one of the next issues, we have invited more people to join the conversation. Stay tuned!

In the meantime, the A&B team and KWK Promes wish you a great read!
