La protection et la mise en valeur du patrimoine culturel et naturel sont devenues une préoccupation de plus en plus partagée par les pouvoirs publics. Une double évolution se perçoit : longtemps demeurée élitiste, la protection du patrimoine s'est démocratisée. Longtemps demeurée étatiste, elle commence à se décentraliser.

Summary:
The treatment of brownfield sites has become a pressing issue for national and local government, urban planners, developers and designers. Whereas only too often the approach to remediation has been driven by economics and litigation, this title seeks an alternative in proposing an unprecedented weaving together of the naturalist and urbanist. It effectively brings(...)

Summary:
The treatment of brownfield sites has become a pressing issue for national and local government, urban planners, developers and designers. Whereas only too often the approach to remediation has been driven by economics and litigation, this title seeks an alternative in proposing an unprecedented weaving together of the naturalist and urbanist. It effectively brings together those in the vanguard of conceptualising this situation from a multiplicity of viewpoints and disciplines. Highlights include an interview with Renzo Piano and features on the work of Glenn Murcutt and sculptor Andy Goldsworthy.

Summary:
After centuries of dealing with cold as the dominant climatic factor for architectural design in Central Europe, architects must now search for experimental approaches to life in a rapidly warming climate. Architecture and urban design strive for efficient technical solutions to meet changing climatic conditions and the energy standards they demand without really questioning customary notions of comfort, forms of living, and urban coexistence. Despite supposed powerlessness in the face of the impending climate catastrophe, the contributions collected in ''Wiener Hitze'' offer a diverse range of narratives that share experiences, observations, and the needs of people that inhabit hotter worlds, both real and imagined. What role as climate producers can architecture and the city play in shaping our habitat if these important issues are understood not only in purely technological but also in cultural and social terms?

Summary:
Roughly half of the raw materials we extract go into the world’s built environment. Construction creates an estimated one-third of the globe’s overall waste and at least 40 per cent of carbon emissions. These are devastating figures, but they also mean that the construction sector has the power to make a relevant contribution to reversing the climate emergency. In several(...)

Roughly half of the raw materials we extract go into the world’s built environment. Construction creates an estimated one-third of the globe’s overall waste and at least 40 per cent of carbon emissions. These are devastating figures, but they also mean that the construction sector has the power to make a relevant contribution to reversing the climate emergency. In several short essays, this book develops a global perspective on economic, social, and ecological changes in the industry, highlights the experiences of various market players in interviews, presents best practice examples, and dispels the most common prejudices regarding sustainable construction.

Il propose une analyse de la réglementation environnementale 2020 (RE2020) et de la loi Climat et résilience de 2021 pour en identifier les leviers de conception, les gestes d’éco-gestion et les pratiques possibles pour le bâti, la ville et le paysage. Il présente de nombreuses pistes de réflexion et des réalisations pratiques qui permettent de se projeter dans le monde de demain pour concevoir et construire autrement. Conçu par le mouvement Unisson(s), il ambitionne de créer l’émergence d’une nouvelle architecture répondant aux enjeux climatiques et énergétiques de demain incluant le bas carbone et le vivant.

Summary:
With its reliance on extracted materials and an intense use of resources, the process of construction begs the question whether real sustainability in architecture and planning is possible. For some, a short-term solution is "greenwashing": adopting strategies of simulated commitment instead of investing in actual change toward fewer emissions. NGOs have called out large(...)

Summary:
With its reliance on extracted materials and an intense use of resources, the process of construction begs the question whether real sustainability in architecture and planning is possible. For some, a short-term solution is "greenwashing": adopting strategies of simulated commitment instead of investing in actual change toward fewer emissions. NGOs have called out large companies for "low integrity" pledges, pointing out the systemic ecological injustice that the built environment creates through material, wealth and labor extractivism. As institutionalized and commodified greenwashing hollows out the term, how do architects and designers position their work beyond a flattening universalistic understanding of sustainability? The first volume of a forthcoming series, "On architecture and greenwashing" is a collection of essays that presents a cross section of positions on architecture and its political economies, and explores ways to correct course in the face of the climate crisis.

To build is to destroy, writes Charlotte Malterre-Barthes. From steel bolts to concrete blocks to wood flooring to polyester insulation panels, every single component of the built environment is the product of extractive processes.

Summary:
To build is to destroy, writes Charlotte Malterre-Barthes. From steel bolts to concrete blocks to wood flooring to polyester insulation panels, every single component of the built environment is the product of extractive processes. Driven by greedy economies, the global enterprise of space production expands, impacting climate, earth, water, humans, and non-humans everywhere. However housing is both a human right and the mandate of design disciplines: How to navigate the need for housing versus the destructive practice of construction? To pause new construction—even if momentarily, creates a radical thinking framework for alternatives to the current regime of space production and its suspect growth imperative. Engaging with unsettling questions, "A moratorium on new construction" envisions a massive value shift for our existing stock.

Summary:
Comment « habiter » aujourd’hui et demain? Face aux multiples défis auxquels le monde est confronté – changement climatique, raréfaction des ressources, vieillissement démographique, migrations, crise sanitaire, disparités sociales –, nos lieux de vie sont amenés à se réinventer dans le respect de la planète, mais tout en préservant le patrimoine, l’esthétique ou encore l’harmonie intergénérationnelle. À l’aide d’exemples concrets, cet ouvrage s’attache à montrer que l’échelle du quartier dans lequel on habite, se déplace, travaille et se détend est pertinente pour agir, car ces morceaux de ville fonctionnent comme des rouages essentiels du métabolisme urbain. Ils informent sur les mécanismes en marche et sur les transformations à venir, mais, en tant que structures à dimension humaine, ils permettent également de penser la ville du point de vue des communautés, des familles, de l’individu. Ces quartiers durables à multiples facettes peuvent ainsi faire office de laboratoires pour expérimenter l’urbanisme du futur.
