Summary:
"Landscape + 100 words to inhabit it" is a title that intends to present a condition of contemporary landscape by measuring it through a direct and immediate form : terms, definitions, ideas, microstories, short texts, notes. It is a collection of instant snaps rather than a complete critical and theoretical look at the subject. It is a group of terms asked for and formulated by authors that are not only architects and landscape architects, but also urbanists, philosophers, critics, poets, geographers and writers. It is a collection of reflections that underlie aesthetic and cultural categories as much as technical-professional values and practices. It is a Tower of Babel of meanings, each having its specific characteristics, which, far from exhausting all the issues of a particular point, propose 'listening' to it from various multifaceted standpoints. These concepts do not guide this book towards a definition of landscape but towards a search for the most suitable instruments for dealing with it.

En ce début de millénaire, quel regard porter sur la production récente de l'espace public ? Loin des grands aménagements urbains, ce livre explore la question de l'invention du paysage urbain dans des petites ou moyennes communes et au travers d'opérations modestes, situées dans de grandes villes ou non. Le "paysage intime" résulte du fragile équilibre obtenu par une évolution lente de la matière bâtie et non bâtie, en fonction des techniques, des particularités culturelles, des usages et du climat de chaque région. Or, force est de constater que, souvent, la production courante de l'aménagement urbain et le traitement infligé aux espaces publics manquent d'attention et de pertinence. L'objet de cet ouvrage est de montrer qu'il est pourtant possible de faire évoluer le cadre urbain avec intelligence et sensibilité tout en évitant les pièges d'un conservatisme frileux ou d'un "modernisme" tapageur. Vingt opérations ont été choisies pour leur qualité de conception et de réalisation, leur caractère innovant ou simplement pour la justesse de leur réponse. Elles prennent en compte les particularités des sites dans lesquels elles s'inscrivent ainsi que les demandes en termes d'usage et de fonctionnalité, pour créer des paysages "à valeur ajoutée", loin des solutions toutes faites qui banalisent et dénaturent généralement les paysages urbains. Ce recueil de projets remarquables par leur qualité devrait contribuer à relever le niveau d'exigence dans la réalisation des espaces publics et à encourager les initiatives ambitieuses.

Summary:
''The Right to Nature'' is a new chapter of reflection and work of the AG greenscape, centered on the current and renewed relationship between man and nature, and the consequent transformation of our cities through new ways of living, inhabiting, working with nature and the landscape as the protagonist, in every area, at all project scales, as a social balancer and activator of a new urban sociality. The relationship between man and nature today is an urgent issue in the debate on the contemporary city, but it still has to be truly explored, defined, and built. Throughout seven main topics – Green and blue infrastructures, Regeneration, Public space, Dwelling, Green welfare, Heritage, and Care –, the book explores contemporary urban landscape issues at the different scales of the project, in the light of the relationship between human beings and nature.

Certain wind phenomena in cities have also caused issues in the atmosphere. Based on these factors, Sanda Lenzholzer shows how basic climatic processes work in an urban environment, and how they can be influenced by spatial planning and urban design. This revised edition draws on current examples in demonstrating how the comfort of the urban environment can be enhanced using modern techniques and new methods. The book is both a reference work and a source of inspiration for all those engaged in creating a liveable city: be they clients, policymakers, professionals or students involved in urban design, landscape architecture and planning.

How are other disciplines rethinking wildness? And how can architects and planners engage critically with these ideas? "Let’s Talk Wild!" brings together 12 interdisciplinary voices in a multi-layered dialogue on chaos, creativity, and the complex meanings of wildness.

Alors que les animaux ont longtemps été effacés ou minorés des récits dominants, l’histoire que nous campons tente de mettre en lumière ce que la présence animale a généré dans la capitale. D’autre part, en menant cette enquête sur le temps long, en observant les lieux de partage entre l’humain et l’animal, qu’ils soient l’expression de tension, de collaboration ou de domination, il s’agit de dégager des indices pour imaginer ce que pourrait être un Paris à même de créer une altérité avec l’animal ; pour reprendre les mots de la philosophe Donna Haraway : « Nous devons apprendre ainsi, au coeur d’un présent épais, à bien vivre et à bien mourir, ensemble. »

Summary:
As an elevated rail line, designed to lift freight trains serving the Hudson River docks above street level circulation, The High Line was originally constructed as material infrastructure for an industrial city. It was closed in 1960s and stood abandoned for the next forty years. In this time organic debris accumulated and decayed, and seeds landed on the newly forming soil creating a meadow on the derelict railbed. This microcosmic biome then also became a heterotopic, other space, in the social ecology of the city as an efflorescence of new art forms and underground subcultures flourished in the evacuated post-industrial spaces of Chelsea. These processes would unfold as New York City was being transformed into a global center in an emerging political-economy defined by the integration of finance capital with media and information industries. In this, marginal spaces of the kind that developed in Chelsea, and the cultures that create them, became important sources of new aesthetic and cultural innovation, that offer an exploitable social ground from which to extract semiotic value. As the Bloomberg administration gave shape to this new regime, a project was initiated to convert the High Line into a publicly accessible, linear park. This would be realized through a convoluted process in which the manifold tensions and contradictions of the postmodern city would be dramatically played out and the disjunctions between ideal image regimes and the reality of the material substrates that support them would be brought to light, if only to be newly obscured. The High Line urban park has been both heralded as a definitive model for new urban development, and denounced as a driver, or at least a morbid symptom, of devastating gentrification, and the destructive financialization of urban space. This text, originally published in 2015 as part of the Deconstructing the High Line anthology, edited by Mark Linder and Brian Rosa, tracks a collection of interconnected historical treads that converge in the reconstruction of the High Line, and situates the project within architectural discourse and practice, and social and material conditions with which it struggles to engage.

Summary:
The unresolved limits of the post-capitalist city give rise to interventions in the city and the contemporary landscape in which the planner has to rely on a knowledge of other fields. The inevitable multidisciplinary activity at these frontiers has been an object of study during recent decades. This book brings together these reflections and some of their achievements in projects whose common denominator is their condition of marginality, of contiguity with prior structures with which they try to establish connections and continuities. The four parts into which the book is divided make reference to projectural policies conditioned by work on the boundaries of the pre-existing and to the interpretation of their settings: stretches of water, infrastructures, cultural and artificial natures. Analysed here are border zones, edges, frontiers and fringes of the contemporary city with itself, with nature, and with the boundaries between the natural and the colonised landscape.
