Cette tendance ne peut se prolonger indéfiniment... Et si le pétrole a déjà connu plusieurs crises, il semble que celle qui nous attend soit d'une ampleur inédite et arrive bien plus tôt que nous ne l'imaginons généralement... Comment la situation peut-elle évoluer? Quand risquons-nous d'être confrontés à une pénurie? Qu'est-ce que le pic de production du pétrole? Et surtout, comment et avec quelles énergies alternatives appréhender, anticiper et vivre cet "après-pétrole"? Voici les questions auxquelles La vie après le pétrole tente de répondre de manière didactique et accessible grâce notamment à des graphiques, des tableaux commentés et des encadrés.

Summary:
Architecture Without Content is architecture reduced to its very perimeter. The books in the series are the outcome of studios held at EPFL. In Architecture Without Content 14, the second incarnation of Roman Architecture presents itself as a double folded exercise: partly portraying the systematic work by Palladio in the Venetian inland during the second half of the sixteenth century, partyly reusing the accumulated knowledge in order to deal with urgent challenges in contemporary Flanders. The oeuvre by Palladio represents on of the most prototypical incarnations, almost literal indeed, of a possible Roman project. His prolific work for the venetian inlandrepresents a tremendous effort to systematise the complexity of an entire territory, from the city proper (i.e. Vicenza), to the countryside proper 9the sprawl still to come).

Summary:
Architecture Without Content is architecture reduced to its very perimeter. The books in the series are the outcome of studios offered at EPFL. This 21st incarnation of Architecture Without Content is, more than previous editions, a report related to our current (political) malaise. Apart from political urgency, what has changed? If always an architecture of necessity and economy (of means) was central to our argument, we felt it necessary to refine our recent arguments with a more Spartan catalogue. Classicism, acting as a catalyst for simplification, results in this collection of The Commons; an ambiguous collection of possible architecture themes. The catalogue spans from the obelisk, as pure architecture, to the fatto urbano, as a collection of architectural events in which the urban layout becomes the dominant factor.
