Summary:
Très divisée sur la valeur de son œuvre, la critique littéraire semble pourtant unanime sur la faculté de Michel Houellebecq à « dire quelque chose » de son époque. Ses défenseurs voient en lui « l'un des témoins les plus aigus de notre monde mondialisé » ; quant à ses livres, ils reposent sur « l’intuition que l’univers est basé sur la séparation, la souffrance et le mal(...)

Summary:
Très divisée sur la valeur de son œuvre, la critique littéraire semble pourtant unanime sur la faculté de Michel Houellebecq à « dire quelque chose » de son époque. Ses défenseurs voient en lui « l'un des témoins les plus aigus de notre monde mondialisé » ; quant à ses livres, ils reposent sur « l’intuition que l’univers est basé sur la séparation, la souffrance et le mal ». Comment interpréter la récurrence des thèmes liés à l’espace et au monde dans son œuvre ? À quelles « topologies » les non-lieux de l’architecture et la ville font-ils écho ? Et d'abord : la monadologie « occidentale » de l’espace houellebecquien en fait-elle un espace véritablement partagé par notre imaginaire collectif ? Sommes-nous à ce point « au milieu du monde » avec lui ?

Car c'est bien à la vie sur notre petite planète que nous invite Simon Sadler. Face à la bible hippie éditée par Stewart Brand entre 1968 et 1972, des représentants de l'arte poveraturinois, de l'architecture « radicale » florentine et du contre-design milanais vont expérimenter, entre 1973 et 1975, une « contre-école » inspirée du livre d'Ivan Illich, Une société sans école(1971). À travers Superstudio et d'autres participants de l'exposition au MoMA « Italy : New Domestic Landscape » (1972), Nikola Jankovic revient sur les raisons de son échec annoncé.

Summary:
L'architecture accompagne la sédentarisation de l'homme, notamment par la construction d'enceinte pour délimiter l'espace du territoire gagné sur la nature. Depuis les premières structures réalisées par l'homme de Neandertal, l'auteur propose en douze étapes une anthropologie de l'histoire de l'architecture, fondée sur cette constante du bâti humain.

Together these twin volumes reflect on topics such as the utopian idea of a welfare state, the role of intersubjective and non-human points of view, and the impact of historical and current images on the making of realities. The task of these books is to present a wide range of research topics that combine historical, material, and critical research approaches that respond to our current crises and challenges. Ultimately, this enables new modes of knowledge production within architecture to be advanced in its relation to societal transformation.

Summary:
In light of the current political crisis around climate change, what can architecture possibly contribute towards a new planetary imaginary of our contemporary environment beyond environmentalism and technological determinism? Instead of conceptualizing the idea of the environment as purely natural and in need of protection, as solely a problem that needs to be managed, or merely as the Earth, which limits the scope with a scalar bias, can we speculate on architecture as a measure both to assess and to act upon the world? Architecture as Measure is an elaboration on this question, and on the disciplinary and cultural potentials of such a provocation. It positions climate change as a cultural and political idea that requires a renewed architectural environmental imagination.

Part aphorism and part manifesto, this book by Canadian architect Reza Aliabadi (RZLBD) references his ideas and thoughts about space. He suggests ‘the empty room’ as the very essence of architecture, and ‘the spatial experience’ as its highest mandate. Reza revisits architecture –not as the walls that enclose the space– but rather the space in-between the walls. What he(...)

Summary:
Part aphorism and part manifesto, this book by Canadian architect Reza Aliabadi (RZLBD) references his ideas and thoughts about space. He suggests ‘the empty room’ as the very essence of architecture, and ‘the spatial experience’ as its highest mandate. Reza revisits architecture –not as the walls that enclose the space– but rather the space in-between the walls. What he calls an “anti-architecture” of invisible voids. As Kahn always said: “Architecture comes from the making of a room”. This book starts with this, the very desire to dwell in a space in its most basic form — a room. Through short passages and aphorisms, this text revisits space as the only protagonist, the very foundation, and the sole essence of architecture. It affects your perception of space, it makes you to look at architecture differently — most likely to see the invisible.

It sets out to investigate the space between the inner and outer realities, a space that could be inhabited and explored in itself, looking for those moments in which the two realms interact most vividly.

Inner Space is part of an ongoing research project into the construction of the architectural imagination. It sets out to investigate the space between the inner and outer realities, a space that could be inhabited and explored in itself, looking for those moments in which the two realms interact most vividly. Besides, it also identifies two parallel and strictly intertwined movements intervening in the construction of architectural imagination: a collective one and an individual one, two spheres complementing each other. The aim is to identify imagination as an immersive territory that can be experienced, crossed and even inhabited, defined as a human ability which partly relies on a collective process.

Summary:
Are metropolises really the “manifest destiny” of humankind? Is the environmental predicament calling for more concentration and incorporation? Or is it conducive to some kind of urban exodus? By and large, what might be the principles and ethics of design in such a condition? These are some of the issues that this book addresses.
