This volume is part of a series about projects by the Danish firm that are representative of its work throughout the years. Ten ongoing or recent projects are selected that feature social, minimal, exclusive, and quite ordinary settings in which people live, ranging from container residences and social housing to luxury living in Oslo Fjord. Modest budgets call for efficient construction techniques, yet the office pursues maximum architectural freedom in its designs, whether using prefab timber-frame box modules, solid wood, or concrete elements.

''Lifting the Gaze'' is an examination of how architecture affects the ways we live, learn, and work. It provides reflections on the possibility of bringing forth new communities and new collaborations in spite of differences and in spite of people's individual interests. The themes of the book share an urban affinity in terms of the urban environment's inherent diversity and potential for offering different meeting places. Through three themes, ''Lifting the Gaze'' revisits three projects, rereads theorists, fuses them with present day conditions, and reflects upon what they can teach us about challenges and possibilities of the future.

The building is located in the gardens of a neoclassical mansion in Porto, dating from the beginning of the 20th century. The competition programme proposed a cinema, auditorium, an exhibition gallery, and required that the surroundings be preserved as they were. According to the architect, ''Work was not allowed to interfere with the garden. Omitting was more important than proposing, deleting was more important than designing, and simplicity more important than composition'' This monograph reflects his very minimalistic approach.

Summary:
Les constructions de l’architecte suisse Gion A. Caminada s’inscrivent dans le tissu des gestes des êtres qu’elles abritent, des communautés qu’elles rassemblent. Elles naissent des lieux qui les reçoivent et les façonnent en retour. Cosmopolites, elles se nourrissent des imaginaires locaux tout autant que de formes architecturales qui les dépassent largement. Y sont tissées indissociablement les dimensions spatiales, constructives, symboliques, culturelles et politiques de l’architecture. Caminada questionne tout autant les formes architecturales que les processus nécessaires à leur mise en œuvre. Dans ce livre, il s'agit “de s'approcher au plus près des choses” qui rendent cette architecture si vivante, et à travers elle de penser une thérapeutique de l'espace contemporain.

Summary:
L’appartement-atelier de Le Corbusier constitue l’un des objets iconiques du XXe siècle, conjuguant l’indéniable valeur matérielle de l’oeuvre construite à celle, immatérielle, de demeure de l’architecte. Le Corbusier, qui y habite dès 1934 et jusqu’à sa mort en 1965, en fait un chantier permanent, haut lieu d’expérimentation spatiale, plastique et constructive. Par ses(...)

Le Corbusier, qui y habite dès 1934 et jusqu’à sa mort en 1965, en fait un chantier permanent, haut lieu d’expérimentation spatiale, plastique et constructive. Par ses transformations successives, le «24NC» est donc un véritable palimpseste. Ses «multiples vies» posent aujourd’hui un problème déontologique majeur pour la sauvegarde. De son histoire matérielle sur la longue durée se dégage un constat clair: la «stratigraphie» de l’objet construit, aussi difficile à démêler que riche de sens, participe de plein droit à son importance.

Of the latter, only a small fraction is available for domestic, agricultural, or industrial consumption, since the rest is in glaciers or underground layers that are too deep. An even smaller fraction is safe and drinkable. This text concentrates on fresh(...)
