This book gathers a series of design research projects produced in 2007, that investigate alternative ways of constructing our relations with our environment. ‘Environment’ is a nebulous term that often implies ‘nature’. It is implied here too, but only in the sense of the nature of complex, dynamic relations. This includes that ‘other’ called ‘culture’, where we are embedded in environment: ‘we’ as complex sub-entities both distinguishable and inseparable from an encompassing complex, dynamic entity called ‘environment’.

Quelques bâtiments servent de référence, mais qui connaît les autres églises, temples, synagogues et nombreuses mosquées construites à Paris et surtout en banlieue depuis 1945? Or le développement urbain, qui a suivi la Seconde Guerre mondiale et n'a fait que s'amplifier jusqu'à nos jours, a suscité en Île-de-France la construction de près d'un millier de lieux de culte de toutes confessions. Ce guide présente une sélection en 100 notices des lieux les plus intéressants sur le plan architectural, sélection sévère faite par un comité d'historiens de l'art, d'architectes, de conservateurs des Monuments historiques et d'autres experts. Il conduira le lecteur et le visiteur à la découverte de créations tout à fait originales témoignant de l'audace des responsables religieux de notre temps.

The pioneers of ecological architecture today are necessarily researchers as much as architects, in any conventional sense of the term. Sustainability is the key criterion in this field, and ecologically sound solutions for the designs of homes are the key challenge (homes the most commonly built structure).

Summary:
The pioneers of ecological architecture today are necessarily researchers as much as architects, in any conventional sense of the term. Sustainability is the key criterion in this field, and ecologically sound solutions for the designs of homes are the key challenge (homes the most commonly built structure). Ecological Living assesses a selection of some recently built ecological habitats, collecting several built examples from a variety of French architects, examining precursors such as Frank Lloyd Wright, Alvar Aalto and Pierre Lajus, plus proposals for European architects and architecture students and inquiries into the ecological viability of detached housing and tower blocks.
