Along with an in-depth profile of Peter Zumthor's first UK project at the London Serpentine, Kay Syrad on the remarkable Art In Touch exhibition, and the latest Toh-Shimazaki health building, Unstructured 5 publishes Danish Vand Kunsten's research on Adaptable Futures, reviews Michael Pawlyn's Biomimicry book and highlight's photographer Ioana Marinescu's vivid visual essay on the recent Studio in the Woods design and make workshop.

Unstructured Extra focuses on the tenth anniversary of the Weald & Downland and Flimwell gridshells, makes connections with the natural structures of Sussex artists, Chris Drury, Walter Bailey and Red Earth and the related woven sculpture of basket maker Anne Marie O Sullivan's in her Cluster exhibition

And not forgetting our special report on Passivhaus' UK take-off, with Architype, Bere Architects and the AECB's role in this continental building tech take-over.
