I was assistant editor of the second issue of BE: journal - a dedicated exploration of health and wellbeing in the built environment.

The issue contemplates the ephemeral term through an expansive collection of key extracts, exclusive interviews and a wellbeing guide.

The journal includes writing by Beatriz Colomina, Sarah Williams Goldhagen, Tristram Carfrae and Junichiro Tanizaki.

The cover of the issue embodies the theme and inspires a pause for self-reflection with Frederic Gros' contemplative words. The back cover is devoted to the ethereal image of a plankton bloom, a material fundamental to global life but with an equilibrium tipping into toxic excess as oceans warm due to climate change.
