Summary:
Ce cahier de théorie propose une étude de l'architecture des logements collectifs projetés dans les concours suisses entre 2000 et 2005. Leur analyse critique, non exhaustive, souligne les tendances prédominantes - notamment organiques - et révèle, en les mettant en perspective, les préoccupations actuelles concernant l'innovation et l'adaptation spatiale à l'évolution des modes de vie. Cette étude montre en particulier que les coopératives d'habitation et les investisseurs privés ne considèrent plus la question du logement qu'à l'aune exclusive des subventions ou des aides financières: la qualité des espaces domestiques est aujourd'hui devenue une question centrale de leurs réflexions.
