Summary:
En 1945, la France en ruine peine à se relever. Quatre millions de personnes sont sans logement ; on manque d’acier, de ciment, de bois ; des villes, des ports, des réseaux ont été entièrement détruits. La région parisienne n’a pas été épargnée. Le ministère de la Reconstruction et de l’Urbanisme va s’atteler à reconstruire, mais aussi à construire, innover, expérimenter et réinventer. La maison individuelle a son rôle à jouer, les Français y sont attachés, les chantiers expérimentaux d’Athis-Mons, d’Argenteuil et davantage encore celui de Noisy-le-Sec en sont les sites majeurs. La cité expérimentale de Merlan, à Noisy-le-Sec, se tourne au sortir de la guerre vers l’avenir : « maison montée de l’intérieur vers l’extérieur », « canon à ciment », « acier inoxydable »… C’est cette histoire technique, architecturale et sociale que retrace cet ouvrage, illustré d’images du chantier et de photographies contemporaines de ce quartier protégé au titre des Monuments historiques en 2000.

Summary:
When it comes to matters related to architecture and urban planning, few other countries grant their population such a far-reaching democratic right of co-determination as Switzerland. The strategy facilitates both a societal acceptance of architecture and the constant prevention of projects, among which are some rather notable examples. Such projects, often painstakingly developed but ultimately not implemented, are part and parcel of the everyday life of Swiss architectural firms. Whether lost, rejected, stalled, or altered, a host of architectural designs exist that are still spoken about today, despite the fact that nothing ever came of them. This is a representative selection.

Summary:
With this work in the form of a book, Maria Lalou & Skafte Aymo-Boot present the phenomenon of a particular pending architecture mutely present all over Athens. The concrete skeletons of polykatoikia – multi-story apartment buildings – are emblematic of the development of modern Greece throughout the second half of the twentieth century. The book deals with the politics of urban space by treating the unfinished buildings as study objects and tracing their individual histories. Through the words of current owners and by means of photographs, archival documents and found artefacts, a different chronicle of the development of modern Arthens is taking shape.

Summary:
The concept "Formula New Ljubljana" is used as a means to explore the city's development as a constant and dynamic process. Rather than being in a state of frozen identity, Slovenia's capital inspires new visions. Formulas state concepts applied to architectural products. They are used as the communication tool in the office while developing a particular product, in discussions with the client and presentations to the public. More than one product can be defined by one formula. Formulas exist regardless of typologies, program, location, budget, time of execution symbolic power, or any other parameter that outline the "uniqueness" of an architectural product. Formulas aim to become generic phrases and to provide a user friendly tool for communicating architectural products. Formulas communicate architectural products away from their technical or typological categories. A formula captures the character of an architectural product and its effect on the observer and the user.
