Summary:
The Toyko firm Tezuka Architects, headed by Takaharu and Yui Tezuka, is enjoying an increasingly international reputation for its refined blend of traditional and contemporary Japanese aesthetics, developing solutions which seem refreshingly unconventional while remaining anchored in the scale and needs of everyday life. Tezuka buildings often sport such features as large sliding-door fronts and verandas, and make particular use of wood and lightweight steel in order to effect a smooth back-and-forth flow between building and environment. In this respect their buildings call to mind centuries-old Japanese architectural tradition, which is absorbed into present day developments in design and construction technologies. Large public buildings such as the Fuji kindergarten and the Natural History Museum in Matsunoyama demonstrate the popularity of this synthesis.

Summary:
Roger Anger (1923–2008) fut l’un des architectes français les plus prolifiques au cours des années 1950 et 1960, il produisit une profusion de projets passionnants. Son langage architectural se caractérise par sa plasticité et son individualité sculpturale – et par une éternelle modernité. Ceci est amplement démontré par plus de cent bâtiments conçus par son agence à Paris. Le projet des trois tours de logements de vingt-huit étages à Grenoble, inaugurant le plus haut immeuble résidentiel d’Europe à cette époque, qui remporta le premier Prix international d’architecture de Belgique en 1967, incarne le point culminant de la recherche entreprise par le bureau de Roger Anger. Aujourd’hui encore, ces créations architecturales restent des icônes de la ville et des exemples du travail de l’architecte. En 1965, Roger Anger fut nommé architecte en chef d’Auroville, une cité idéale conçue en Inde du Sud; ce fut l’endroit où l’essence de son travail en tant qu’architecte, peintre et sculpteur s’exprima jusque dans les dernières décennies de sa vie.
