Summary:
Thanks to an automatic reputation of lively urbanity, old neighbourhoods are extremely popular with residents. New buildings, however, can capture some of this charm too, like the variety of successful projects presented in this volume from the “best of DETAIL” series. In the end, it’s a question of mixed usage – residential and commercial as well as open spaces and opportunities for old and young residents of various nationalities and different social structures. Even in these times of an increasingly digitally connected society, urbanity still manages to express itself largely through diversity. In addition to surprising theses on high-density housing, this publication presents a refreshingly inviting selection of projects from around the world that would give anyone the desire to move to the city.

Summary:
Our living requirements reflect the condition of our society. Currently, there is a very large range of perceptibly different living requirements. The shared apartment, originally a youthful living model, is becoming an increasingly important concept for the elderly. But the single-resident apartment trend continues unabated, although there is a conscious movement towards spatial organization that includes contact possibilities. Community facilities such as workshops, kitchens or guest apartments and informal meeting places such as saunas and gardens give a residential project great added value. This is precisely where access ways are of particular importance, especially in low-budget residential construction. This publication documents and analyzes type variants in recent international examples and puts them in context with historical buildings featuring sheltering walkways built from 1920 to 1970.

His three Laws of Housing summarize the psychological, social and economic basis of his thesis: 1. When people have no control over, nor responsibility for, key decisions in the housing process, dwelling environments may become a barrier to personal fulfilment and a burden on the economy. 2. The important thing about housing is not what it is, but what it does in people's lives. 3. Deficiencies and imperfections in your housing are infinitely more tolerable if they are your responsibility than if they are somebody else's.

Many of the projects incorporate other uses, alongside residential ones in their programmes. This contributes both to density and intensity of use in respective environments, in turn creating new urban nuclei and providing a solution to strained resources. Fully illustrated with plans, diagrams and elevations, ‘Density Projects' includes works from the likes of; BIG, Jean Nouvel, Kohn Pedersen Fox, MGM, No.MAD, Stephen Holl, Studio Gang Architects and VMX architects.

Historique, exemplaire, l'aventure de "Kraftwerk" à Zurich s'avère, pour tous ceux qu'attirent d'autres manières de construire et d'habiter, une source de réflexion et d'inspiration. L'histoire commence en 1983 avec la parution du manifeste Bolo'bolo, qui milite pour un habitat autogéré d'un genre nouveau. Son utopiste et mystérieux auteur, P. M. (Hans Widmer), rallié par deux activistes, prend bientôt le pari de donner corps à cet idéal. Un second manifeste, dix ans et quelques concessions plus tard, commence l'une des expériences sociales et architecturales les plus passionnantes des dernières décennies. Finalement érigé en 2001, le premier bâtiment, Kraftwerk 1, réunit mixité sociale, loyers modérés, achats groupés, mutualisation des biens, fonds solidaire et dispositifs environnementaux : c'est un succès.
