Summary:
La recherche d'efficacité énergétique et de confort mais aussi le manque de terrains pour construire des logements incitent à procéder à la réhabilitation ou à la requalification, associée à des extensions, surélévations, etc. Dans ce type d'opérations lourdes, les enjeux architecturaux sont importants, bien que ce champ soit considéré, le plus souvent, comme peu propice à l'ambition créative. Cet ouvrage propose une réflexion théorique et pratique sur la place de l'architecture dans la requalification de l'habitat collectif en rassemblant une analyse détaillée d'environ 200 opérations parmi les plus marquantes. Centré principalement sur l'habitat des Trente Glorieuses (1946-1975), ce bilan critique : explique les raisons historiques de l'absence de l'architecture lors des opérations de réhabilitation, l'évolution du contexte favorable à la requalification des logements ; propose une étude comparative de réalisations aux qualités architecturales reconnues, classées par type et niveau d'interventions ? de l'immeuble (logement, parties communes) aux abords immédiats (pieds d'immeubles, résidentialisation) jusqu'à l'aménagement urbain dans le cas d'extensions neuves ; met en évidence des éléments de conception architecturale communs, lesquels permettent de définir les bases d'une théorisation de la prise en compte de l'architecture et d'offrir des outils opérationnels au regard des enjeux visés (agrandissement de logements, création d'annexes extérieures privatives, diversification de l'offre, mixité de l'habitat, etc.).

L'originalité de la vingtaine des réalisations présentées (Allemagne, Brésil, Mexique, Chine, Espagne, Etats-Unis, Grande-Bretagne, République tchèque, France) provient de la démarche adoptée par les architectes : il ne s'agit ni de réhabilitation ni de restauration mais d'un parti pris consistant à confronter vestiges et architecture contemporaine. La ruine est ainsi davantage consolidée en l'état et conservée telle que plutôt que réhabilitée. La ruine devient alors comme le paysage de la construction neuve qui est insérée dedans ou à côté. Le choix des projets plaide pour une intervention "douce" qui consiste ni à détruire, ni à rénover, mais plutôt à coloniser l'existant, considérant que recycler, adapter, transformer, inventer d'autres usages est susceptible de s'avérer plus pertinent que de démolir pour reconstruire "mieux".

In addition to tracing the developments in conservation over the past fifty years it raises concerns about the ambivalence within government towards heritage protection.
