It is said that the history of modern architecture can be observed through the evolution of the single-family home. Over generations, each has hoped to improve on the last, rethinking and reinventing this seemingly simple building type. At certain historic moments in the discourse, new ideas about domesticity have given form to radically different configurations of home(...)

Summary:
It is said that the history of modern architecture can be observed through the evolution of the single-family home. Over generations, each has hoped to improve on the last, rethinking and reinventing this seemingly simple building type. At certain historic moments in the discourse, new ideas about domesticity have given form to radically different configurations of home and community. Current emphasis on sustainability presents a unique opportunity to design affordable houses that respond to specific economic, social, and environmental challenges. In From the Ground Up, editor Peggy Tully presents the results of an international competition to create new models for affordable high-performance green homes in urban residential neighborhoods. Developed for a vacant infill site in Syracuse's Near Westside, these ambitious projects offer an array of innovative designs that provide a new vision for once-vital urban residential neighborhoods and well-designed energy-efficient homes throughout the United States. From the Ground Up includes topical essays by series editor Mark Robbins, architect Michael Sorkin, and architectural historianSusan Henderson.

Summary:
In 2007, the architect and scholar Jana Revedin created the Global Award for Sustainable Architecture in collaboration with Cité de l’Architecture et du Patrimoine, to recognize architects leading the field in environmentally friendly design and practice. The prize, which now receives the patronage of UNESCO, is awarded each year to five architects who share the principles of sustainable development and who have taken an innovative approach towards maintaining them in the built environment. This publication illustrates the work of Sami Rintala, Studio Mumbaï, Diébédo Francis Kéré, Patrick Bouchain and Loïc Julienne, Thomas Herzog, Junya Ishigami, Steve Bear, Giancarlo Mazzanti, Troppo Architects and Snohetta, all of who won the prize in 2009 or 2010. Sustainable Design assesses the methodology of each architect through essays as well as visual documentation of their most relevant projects.

Summary:
Ce coffret, Un autre possible, regroupe les deux ouvrages: Vers une cité végétale et Archiborescence (nouvelle édition). Dans Vers une cité végétale, Luc Schuiten a rassemblé ses réflexions et projets concernant le futur proche de nos villes et campagnes. Il y suggère des solutions pour les transports publics et individuels de demain, propose déjà des formes d’habitat archiborescent réalisables immédiatement, et étudie le devenir de la ville deLyon à l’horizon 2100. L’ouvrage offre un complément à Archiborescence qui envisage des évolutions à beaucoup plus long terme. La collaboration s’est renouvelée avec Pierre Loze pour la rédaction des textes et avec Gauthier Chapelle qui conclut l’ouvrage en examinant en biologiste la validité des hypothèses visionnaires de Luc Schuiten. Archiborescence retrace le parcours de créateur de Luc Schuiten depuis la maison Oréjona qu’il construisit pour lui-même jusqu’aux cités qu’il a imaginées en visionnaire pour une société revenue à des modes de vie écologiques. Une trentaine d’années de projets, destinés à suggérer au monde industrialisé d’autres voies que celles de l’épuisement des ressources de la planète. Pierre Loze a prêté sa plume à la pensée de Luc Schuiten, et Gauthier Chapelle, biologiste, l’a conseillé et a réalisé un chapitre sur le biomimétisme qui clôt l’ouvrage publié pour la première fois en 2006. Un voyage dans le futur de nos sociétés, réconciliées avec la nature.

Imagine a power plant that is also the perfect place to have a picnic. On the foreshore of St. Kilda, Australia rises just such a structure—one that merges renewable energy production with leisure, recreation, and education. This volume imagines a world where the infrastructures that power our cities are designed to be reflections of culture, where public parks provide clean electricity to the city grid, and where the art that brings depth and vibrancy to our lives also measurably responds to the challenges of climate change. ''Energy Overlays'' provides a glimpse into a post-carbon future where energy infrastructure is seamlessly woven into the fabric of our cities as works of public art.

Summary:
How do we make sense of the Earth at a moment in which it is presented in crisis? ''Geostories'' is a manifesto on the environmental imagination that renders sensible the issues of climate change and through geographic fiction invites readers to relate to the complexity of Earth systems in their vast scales of time and space. The book is organized into three sections–terrarium, aquarium, planetarium, each of which revisits such devices of wonder that assemble publics around representations of the Earth. The series of architectural projects becomes a medium to synthesize different forms and scales of knowledge on technological externalities, such as oil extraction, deep-sea mining, ocean acidification, water shortage, air pollution, trash, space debris, and a host of other social-ecological issues. Through design research, ''Geostories'' brings together spatial history, geographic representation, projective design, and material public assemblies to speculate on ways of living with such legacy technologies on the planet.
