This paradigm shift is reflected in architecture as well: in recent years, increasingly innovative collective housing projects, organized around the principle of trading-in private spaces for larger, more luxurious shared spaces, have been emerging across the globe—many of them realized through bottom-up grassroots initiatives.

Summary:
This paradigm shift is reflected in architecture as well: in recent years, increasingly innovative collective housing projects, organized around the principle of trading-in private spaces for larger, more luxurious shared spaces, have been emerging across the globe—many of them realized through bottom-up grassroots initiatives. The return of the collective in architecture has resulted in surprising architectural solutions that also create new urban spaces. "Together! The new architecture of the collective" presents around 20 international building projects from Europe, Japan and the US that provide innovative platforms for collective living in the present day. A selection of projects is discussed in detail, and extensive photo essays offer vivid impressions of the daily collective and private life and everyday routines in these buildings. Interviews with movers and shakers from the collective housing scene, written by international journalists, offer insights and background information on the processes and people that have made each project possible. All this is complemented by theoretical and historical context, including analytical essays by experts in the field, infographics providing facts and figures, diagrams explaining how different collective housing models work and an extensive timeline detailing the genealogy of the collective housing movement in the 20th century.

Summary:
This book investigates the development of multi-unit housing typologies that were predominant in a particular city from the 1800s to present day. It emphasises the importance of understanding the direct connection between housing and dwelling in the context of a city, and the manner in which the city is an instructional indication of how a housing typology is embodied.

Summary:
Complexes et hybrides: nous pouvons caractériser par ces deux termes une grande partie des logements collectifs conçus dans le cadre de concours organisés en Suisse entre 2005 et 2015. Ceci a certainement à voir avec le discours actuel sur la densité et le «construire la ville en ville», une orientation qui implique de la part des architectes un travail fin avec des formes hybrides, issues souvent de la prise en compte de situations contradictoires et de valeurs contraires, telles que construire et préserver la nature. Soulignons, par ailleurs, l’intérêt des architectes contemporains pour des solutions complexes, contenant plusieurs niveaux de signification ; attitude dont on fait l’hypothèse qu’elle s’ancre dans les postulats critiques des années 1960 et 1970, en référence notamment aux «stratégies de coexistence» de l’historien Colin Rowe et au phénomène du «à la fois» théorisé par l’architecte Robert Venturi. Abondamment illustré, cet ouvrage présente l’analyse de près d’une quarantaine de projets de concours de logements collectifs en Suisse de 2005 à 2015, faisant notamment ressortir un véritable revival des immeubles à cour et des formes non dictées par les règles de la composition, d’inspiration souvent organique. Les projets ici analysés témoignent aussi du fait qu’il persiste une réflexion sur les modes de vie et la qualité des espaces domestiques – menée souvent de concert avec les coopératives de logement qui demeurent les maîtres d’ouvrage majoritaires – avec l’émergence de certains dispositifs inédits comme le «lieu à manger», qui devient de nos jours une véritable centralité dans le logement.

Summary:
Paradoxically, the historical legacy of Korean housing is both heroic and mundane. Until recently, the nation’s rapid urbanisation fuelled the creation of new regions of high-density dwellings, while cycles of urban renewal continue to push the radical disjunction between new and historical fabrics. Yet the ongoing impasse between developmental pressures and design progress has reduced housing to its basic elements. A current wave of architects has begun formulating new, efficient syntaxes with nuanced social qualities. While the works in this volume represent unique solutions, what we can learn from their innovations goes far further, towards making conscious typological advances.
