Construction de collisions d'idées, d'assemblages de pensées, qui font émerger des images inédites, des silences, des certitudes, des doutes, des mondes et qui nous livrent en creux une méthode de penser et de composer, cette publication est le fruit du travail longuement mené par l'agence belge BAUKUNST. L'ouvrage se compose de parties volontairement fragmentaires assemblées sous une forme triptyque reprenant Mots, Définitions et Citations. Les Mots s'organisent sous la forme d'un abécédaire et appartiennent à des champs disciplinaires vastes et variés. Se rapprochant de la notion de sèmes, utilisés en sémantique, ceux-ci constituent des « atomes de signification » en puissance. Ils sont soutenus, spécialisés et précis. Parfois distants de nous, ils s'éloignent, et cherchent leur autonomie.

This book accompanies an exhibition that traces the life of the great French-Swiss architect through documents, photographs, and many personal objects rediscovered following a restoration of Le Corbusier’s apartment on Rue Nungesser et Coli, Paris. Le Corbusier collected all kinds of everyday objects he called objets à réaction poétique: shells, pieces of wood, glass or bone, stones, enamelled ceramics, bricks, and common objects. Photographs and sketches of cars demonstrate Le Corbusier’s passion for vehicles and means of transport, and the tickets, tourist brochures, and postcards of monuments that the architect collected show his sentimentality for the journeys he took internationally.

Summary:
The act of building and its material reality play a defining role in the work of Swiss architect Roger Boltshauser. His architectural language thus develops in the context of the examination of materials and their intrinsic constructive and structural possibilities. Edited by architect and lecturer Martin Tschanz, this monograph examines how Boltshauser’s architecture is neither an implementation of a pictorial idea nor a display of a certain principle. Rather, it is integrative and open to complexity, particularly that of the act of building itself. Contrary to the abstractness of modernism and neo-modernism and the arbitrariness of free forms, his is a unique, contemporary expression.

Summary:
In the mid-century era of TV dinners and suburban conformity, Russel and Mary Wright were individualists. Their home Dragon Rock at Manitoga is situated on forested woodlands, sited at an abandoned quarry located an hour north of New York City, now part of the Historic Artists' Homes and Studios program of the National Trust for Historic Preservation. Although best known for American Modern dinnerware, the Wrights rejected rigid modernism for a life that invited ambiguity. Mary's role as a partner, designer, and entrepreneur is explored here for the first time. This volume is filled with personal histories and over one hundred stunning photographs, synthesizing multiple archives and charting the innovation of their design practice, their lives, and the development of their Dragon Rock home and the Woodland Paths of Manitoga.

Summary:
For reasons both obvious and mysterious, even as our cultural and social constructions of domesticity change, the house remains a fundamental site for advancing modern architectural theory and practice: because it accommodates a full diurnal and annual cycle of life, and because it intricately stages ritual and routine, this most private of programs has become a medium of publicity and polemic. This volume both participates in and critiques this contemporary tradition. The reader’s attention in this examination is directed not only to Levenbetts’ houses, but to all houses, and all parts of houses—pieces of home and rhetorics of domesticity that show up in our collective memory: from a stolen moment on a staircase in a John Cassavetes film, to the sturdy knife-edged contractor modernism of suburban late to mid-twentieth-century America.
