Summary:
Comment continuer d’habiter ce monde étrange, accéléré, qui préfère le jetable au durable, le virtuel au réel, la nouveauté à la pérennité ? L’architecture peut-elle encore faire sens, à l’heure où se multiplient les villes aseptisées, et où nous vivons toujours plus déconnectés des milieux qui nous accueillent ?

Comment continuer d’habiter ce monde étrange, accéléré, qui préfère le jetable au durable, le virtuel au réel, la nouveauté à la pérennité ? L’architecture peut-elle encore faire sens, à l’heure où se multiplient les villes aseptisées, et où nous vivons toujours plus déconnectés des milieux qui nous accueillent ? Dans ce texte engagé et incarné, l’architecte et philosophe Mathias Rollot invite à redéfinir l’architecture à partir des idées du mouvement biorégionaliste. L’éthique biorégionaliste déplace nos manières de voir le monde et ouvre des pistes radicales, pour remettre l’architecture au service du vivant et de ses territoires, et d’une société plus juste. Entre architecture et philosophie, entre aménagement et animalisme, entre militantisme et recherche, ce texte connecte des mondes et ouvre de nombreuses pistes d’action.

Summary:
''Towards territorial transition'' presents new spatial strategies, concepts, and approaches for shaping large-scale and transnational developments in architecture and urban design towards decarbonization and ecological transition. The contributions investigate interactions between ecological and resource-related systems and landscapes. They also explore potential solutions to address and deal with the dramatic threats posed by climate change and the emerging social crisis. The book introduces six basic terms of territorial transition—territory, scale, transition, resource, platform, and uncertainty—and visualizes them with spatial strategies elaborated at the École nationale supérieure d’architecture Versailles and at Graz University of Technology. Moreover, it presents a selection of transnational projects of territorial transition, such as Luxembourg in Transition (Luxembourg / France), Grand Genève (Switzerland / France), and Top Noordrand (Belgium).

The architects must take this responsibility and move from geopolitics towards biosphere politics. This publication is a real test of how this can be achieved.

Summary:
The number one cause of global warming is architecture - the buildings. Buildings are responsible for 40% of the Co2 that is emitted into the atmosphere. The architects must take this responsibility and move from geopolitics towards biosphere politics. This publication is a real test of how this can be achieved. The context for the intervention is an existing historic building in Barcelona, the Centre of Arts Santa Monica; a building to explore the Third Industrial Revolution as the potential of a transformation towards an empathic architecture. Nature should let us show the path. Cloud 9 equipped the trees in front of Arts Santa Monica with sensors that capture data on temperature, humidity and light energy to inform the building. The intervention is an installation on the facade that produces energy from the environment, like the sun and wind. It is an additional skin which allows control of natural light and regulates solar radiation.
