5th Studio is pleased to support the release of North Sea Rising: A Case for Water-Based Commons, co-edited by Nabi Agzamov – a doctoral researcher based at 5th Studio, as part of his ongoing research.

North Sea Rising features a series of essays by experts and practitioners examining the evolution, climate change challenges, and the future potential of the North Sea watershed. Essays include Tom Holbrook's A New Hansa? Emerging Spatial Challenges in the North Sea Region, which explores the historical and present-day significance of the region's trade and urban networks. It underscores the importance of the North Sea's history of innovation and unique geography, suggesting that these elements can once again inspire new ideas in urban planning, governance, and environmental stewardship. Di Fang's Mapping the Human-Ocean Nexus: Reflections and Reimaginings in the Cartography of Land Reclamation and Nashin Mahtani's To Dream Like a River: Wet Politics for Turbulent Worlds. The book concludes with North Sea Manifesting by Nabi Agzamov and Francesca Vanelli, which proposes a fluid, inclusive governance model that balances ecological and social dimensions, envisioning a resilient and equitable future for the North Sea.

This book is published as an output of VI PER Gallery's writing grant within the LINA (Learning, Interacting, and Networking in Architecture) platform.

Supported by the Ministry of Culture Czech Republic, City of Prague and State Fund of Culture of the Czech Republic.
