Exploring the intricate connection between architecture and its environment, this book draws parallels between built structures and ecological systems. It emphasizes how architectural design can reflect the adaptive strategies of organisms in their habitats, promoting a deeper understanding of sustainability and environmental integration in architectural practices. Through this lens, it challenges conventional approaches to design, advocating for a more harmonious coexistence between human-made spaces and the natural world.

Issue 10 of the Cornell Journal of Architecture explores the concept of spirit in architecture, examining both its phenomenal and digital aspects. It discusses the idea of an "angels' share" in architecture, where intangible elements like Genius Loci and Zeitgeist play crucial roles, especially as technology blurs the lines between the physical and virtual realms.

Werewolf explores an emerging but under-investigated branch of architecture that embraces the transformation of form, performance, and the responsiveness to environments and context.
