Summary:
L'étalement urbain entraîne une utilisation peu rationnelle du sol et une pression grandissante sur le paysage, ainsi qu'un accroissement des coûts d'infrastructures et des impacts environnementaux. Face à ces conséquences, un consensus se dégage progressivement pour réorienter le développement du bâti vers l'intérieur et pour favoriser les processus de densification(...)

Face à ces conséquences, un consensus se dégage progressivement pour réorienter le développement du bâti vers l'intérieur et pour favoriser les processus de densification urbaine. Le site de Waldstadt, sur lequel portent les travaux de recherche et d'enseignement présentés dans cet ouvrage, constitue un champ d'investigation particulièrement adapté à l'exploration de ces enjeux. Green Density présente six visions originales élaborées au sein du Laboratoire d'architecture et technologies durables (LAST) de l'Ecole polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL). Par une approche se situant à différentes échelles d'intervention - du projet urbain au détail constructif - elles visent à expérimenter diverses formes envisageables pour le développement d'un tel site.

Summary:
Faut-il faire de la France un pays de propriétaires et liquider le parc HLM de l’après-guerre ? C’est en tout cas le tournant pris par les politiques publiques depuis les années 1970. Être propriétaire de son pavillon, profiter des attraits de la ville à la campagne, réinventer la sociabilité de voisinage et la mixité sociale, tel est le projet qu’ont vocation à incarner les nouveaux lotissements et que favorisent les aides à l’accès à la propriété. Mobilisant données statistiques, enquêtes de terrain et témoignages vécus, ce livre montre qu’en nourrissant un vaste mouvement de périurbanisation des classes populaires, la diffusion de la propriété transforme en profondeur leurs conditions d’existence : déstabilisation de l’économie domestique par le poids de l’endettement, éloignement des bassins d’emploi et des réseaux de solidarité, repli des femmes sur la sphère domestique, « mixité » sociale conflictuelle… Entre la maison individuelle rêvée et le logement standardisé souvent exigu et inachevé que ces « primo-acquérants » ont pu se payer, entre le quartier pavillonnaire imaginé sur papier glacé et le lotissement sous-doté en équipements collectifs et coupé du monde auquel ses habitants se trouvent assignés, ce nouveau monde de « HLM à plat » est gros de tensions dont Anne Lambert souligne l’importance politique pour les années à venir.

The building was intended to house local inhabitants rather than European expats, and that intention guided the architects in their design, which reflected a number of ethnographic assumptions about the Moroccan populace. This richly illustrated book explores the process of designing and building Habitat Marocain, illustrating the complicated interplay of ethnographic imagination and design synthesis, as well as the increasingly informal further development of the project after it was officially completed.
