"Les Nouvelles maisons de campagne" célèbre ces constructions et la place qu'elles occupent dans l'environnement et le paysage à travers quatre chapitres principaux ; l'organique, le vernaculaire, le contemporain et l'expérimental. L'introduction retrace l'histoire et l'évolution de ce type de bâtiments, et trente études de cas montrent les approches différentes - modernes ou plus traditionnelles - que des architectes ont adoptées pour définir une nouvelle résidence secondaire, synonyme de variété, d'énergie et d'originalité. Reflet des évolutions récentes de notre société, elle est à la fois plus souple et plus fonctionnelle.

Summary:
Norway-based Canadian architect Todd Saunders has a unique understanding of the arctic landscape. His designs, set in some of the most remote locations on earth, splice modern sculptural forms with a deeply rooted respect for nature. His care for the natural landscape can be seen in his work, such as the Fogo Island Inn and the artists studios in Newfoundland. Rather than imposing themselves upon the countryside and coast, Saunders’s buildings seek a sensitive accommodation within the topography, among the icy flora, fauna, and treescapes of the landscapes they inhabit. This volume focuses on Saunders’s residential designs and includes eleven of his most recent projects across Scandinavia and Canada, photographed amid their dramatic landscapes. Sections on process and ways of working, as well as Saunders’s inspirations and design philosophy are interwoven in separate sections, which include drawings, plans, and photography.

Summary:
This wide-ranging survey showcases and analyzes the work of dozens of Modernist designers, from those who established the International Style in the 1920s and ‘30s through the groundbreaking practitioners of the mid-1940s. Modernism, with its powerful aesthetic and compelling philosophical framework, is the twentieth century’s most defining movement in design and the applied arts. International architects and designers such as Alvar Aalto, Marcel Breuer, Eileen Gray, Le Corbusier, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, and Frank Lloyd Wright revolutionized the built world and how we live in it. Their work rejected historical precedents, prioritizing function over tradition, and their experimentation with new forms, materials, and techniques transformed our living spaces and lifestyles and fundamentally changed the way we think about design.
