Summary:
In this volume in the "Pamphlet Architecture" series, the authors examine common architectural forms (chairs, doors, and walls) and programs (a cinema, a health club, a skyscraper) in order to dissect and reconfigure them. In the process they create ten new projects that draw their power from an oscillation between the recognizable and the surreal. Cleverly undermining the conventions and norms of contemporary architectural design, the authors pose a direct challenge to the seemingly endless search for new styles, arguing instead that the greatest potential for architecture in the twenty-first century rests on an imaginative examination of what we take for granted. Designed by the authors, "Situation Normal..." weaves together text, photographs, and drawings. An introductory essay establishes the theoretical and historical position of the book.

"On a l'impression qu'une partie de l'art actuel concourt à un travail de dissuasion, à un travail de deuil de l'imaginaire, à un travail de deuil esthétique, la plupart du temps raté, ce qui entraîne une mélancolie générale de la sphère artistique, dont il semble qu'elle se survive dans le recyclage de son histoire et de ses vestiges (mais ni l'art ni l'esthétique ne sont les suls voués à ce destin mélancolique de vivre non pas au-dessus de ses moyens, mais au-delà de ses propres fins)."
