L'exposition « Paysans designers » présentée au Musée des Arts décoratifs et du Design Bordeaux se penche sur ces pratiques visant à résoudre les problèmes des agriculteurs et à fluidifier leurs usages : nourrir tout en régénérant les sols et les écosystèmes plutôt qu'en les exploitant, redéfinir les modes de production de l'alimentation, répondre aux bouleversements de(...)

L'exposition « Paysans designers » présentée au Musée des Arts décoratifs et du Design Bordeaux se penche sur ces pratiques visant à résoudre les problèmes des agriculteurs et à fluidifier leurs usages : nourrir tout en régénérant les sols et les écosystèmes plutôt qu'en les exploitant, redéfinir les modes de production de l'alimentation, répondre aux bouleversements de la biodiversité et du climat. L'exposition et cette publication montre une agriculture réinventée, engagée pour faire face aux bouleversements de la biodiversité et du climat, qui ne répond plus à un seul modèle adaptable pour tous, mais rassemble des pratiques singulières, contextuelles, fédérées autour de la notion d'agroécologie paysanne. Ingénieurs, designers, botanistes, artistes, paysans ou poètes s'interrogent ici sur l'invention d'une culture nouvelle qui place l'humain au coeur d'alliances inédites avec la nature, et le repositionne comme un des maillons du vivant aux côtés des êtres animés, plantes et animaux. Une culture dans laquelle l'Homme respecte la nature, et qui confère un statut à celui qui la cultive, le paysan.

Summary:
Trees have been deliberately connected with houses since they were introduced as a prominent part of architectural design. The relationships of contiguity between houses and trees have existed since ancient times. However, at the end of the 19th century those links became explicit in the design process, as the house emerged as one of the fundamental architectural(...)

Summary:
Trees have been deliberately connected with houses since they were introduced as a prominent part of architectural design. The relationships of contiguity between houses and trees have existed since ancient times. However, at the end of the 19th century those links became explicit in the design process, as the house emerged as one of the fundamental architectural programs, and as the result of an increasing sensibility towards environmental aspects and the landscape. The first part of this publication is to present a collection of exemplary five houses that evinced explicit relationships with pre-existing trees. The five twentieth century projects are: La Casa (B. Rudofsky, 1969), Cottage Caesar (M. Breuer, 1951), Ville La Roche (Le Corbusier & P. Jeanneret, 1923), Villa Pepa (J. Navarro Baldeweg, 1994) and Hexenhaus (A. & P. Smithson, 1984-2002). The second part of the book contributes three theoretical concerns for the contemporary project, those ones which are established in the process, with respect to time, place and outdoor domesticity in modern western housing.

The difficulty of reconciling our basic needs with the long history of cultural landscapes, in all their inherent beauty and sufficiency, has become clear. With our deep trust in modern technology, in progress and in a demanding global lifestyle we have become a real threat to our world.

Summary:
The difficulty of reconciling our basic needs with the long history of cultural landscapes, in all their inherent beauty and sufficiency, has become clear. With our deep trust in modern technology, in progress and in a demanding global lifestyle we have become a real threat to our world. Yet, today the existential and elementary nature of landscapes remains the bearer of a successful metaphor for “balance”. Why not draw—amidst a truly global crisis—conclusions out of our long history of designed nature, of places shaped by skilled labor and a quest for pleasure? This publication seeks to stimulate the “Analogue” dimension as a substantial concept for everyday landscape thinking. In an anthology of interdisciplinary essays, this volume stresses the necessity for a fundamental shift, within the likely framework of a future of restricted resources, a radically different mobility or “hot” cities.

Analysing biological processes in their mathematical and physical aspects, this historic work, first published in 1917, has also become renowned for the sheer poetry of its descriptions. A great scientist sensitive to the fascinations and beauty of the natural world tells of jumping fleas and slipper limpets; of buds and seeds; of bees' cells and rain drops; of the potter's thumb and the spider's web; of a film of soap and a bubble of oil; of a splash of a pebble in a pond.

Summary:
The book takes us from the fells of the Lake District to the uplands of Northumberland; from the streetscapes of industrial Manchester to the heart of London. This panoramic journey reveals the significance, not only of the physical characteristics of landscapes, but also of the sense of the past, collective memories and cultural traditions that give these places their meaning. Between the late eighteenth and early twentieth centuries, Englishness extended far beyond the pastoral idyll of chocolate-box thatched cottages, waving fields of corn and quaint country churches. It was found in diverse locations - urban as well as rural, north as well as south - and it took strikingly diverse forms.
