Fuller's grandson, in the introduction, refers to this selection as "hardcore Bucky," as these essays display Fuller's investigations into mathematics, geometry and how they intersect with the arts, music and world peace. In Fuller's words, "This is what man tends to call utopia. It's a fairly small word, but inadequate to describe the extraordinary new freedom

Summary:
A pioneer of "Water Urbanism" and the "Sponge City" model, Kongjian Yu is not only one of the most important living landscape architects, but also a keen observer of the present. His project proposals and his reflections on urban planning in China are a practical-conceptual reference with which to attempt to unravel the emerging questions of a planet threatened by environmental catastrophes, hydrogeological risks and a water crisis. Taking the foundational geometries of rural landscapes as a model, Kongjian Yu proposes very low technology water infrastructure works which, by activating an adaptive behavior, recompose intermediate landscapes between city and nature, concrete representations of the partnership between man and the element that, more than any other, generates and protects life and water.

Soon after, the architects began working on The Sea Ranch, a large development on the northern California coast that runs from the ocean’s edge, with its protected beaches and cliffs, to a coastal meadow stretching the entire length of the acreage. The firm was charged with developing a master plan for The Sea Ranch that would be aesthetically refined and have minimal impact on the surrounding natural landscape. Local materials such as redwood timber were used in the construction of the residential units and recreational buildings, which together express the era’s particularly Californian modernism.

Comment concevoir un musée et son contenu ? Comment façonner cet outil de médiation de l’art et des savoirs ? Des années 1920 aux années 1960, Le Corbusier s’interroge, échangeant avec des conservateurs, des responsables politiques et des artistes. Outre la création d’une forme à « croissance illimitée », il défend un « musée de la connaissance » et l’utopie d’une version « électronique » pour l’Inde, inspirée par la cybernétique. En s’appuyant sur ses écrits et ses archives, ce livre examine les positions de Le Corbusier et en analyse les ressorts, entre pragmatisme et opportunisme, fascination technologique, paternalisme néocolonial et convictions humanistes. Hybride, mobile et démultipliable, son modèle idéal tient à la fois du livre et du spectacle, et ses intuitions visionnaires entrent étonnamment en résonance avec les réflexions d’aujourd’hui sur le musée.

Summary:
"Archives" is a magazine developed for a paper format; it seeks to fill a gap in the sphere of architecture and other areas to which our particular view of the world relates. It was conceived as an abject that one would want to read employing both eyes and hands, and with the idea of becoming an archive that orders and clarifies the diverse ways of working and the projects of a series of architects. "Archives" presents monographic issues dedicated to architects with built work that can be visited and photographed, so as to offer a real look at their architecture. A continuous look through the eyes of the same photographer, Juan Rodriguez, with the idea of establishing a relationship between all that may be shown in the different issues of the magazine. This second issue shows the work of Bearth & Deplazes.
