Summary:
Situé à proximité de la gare, au milieu d'un vaste territoire constitué, d'un côté, par l'immense poche des voies ferrées, de l'autre, par le quartier commercial Saint-Sébastien, le tri postal construit par Claude Prouvé à Nancy établit un subtil équilibre entre l'urbanité élégante d'un immeuble de bureaux et la puissance primitive d'un bâtiment industriel. Il accède à(...)

Summary:
Situé à proximité de la gare, au milieu d'un vaste territoire constitué, d'un côté, par l'immense poche des voies ferrées, de l'autre, par le quartier commercial Saint-Sébastien, le tri postal construit par Claude Prouvé à Nancy établit un subtil équilibre entre l'urbanité élégante d'un immeuble de bureaux et la puissance primitive d'un bâtiment industriel. Il accède à cette identité complexe sans détours anecdotiques, par le seul jeu des réponses fonctionnelles et techniques à un programme bien formulé. Point de repère solide dans le paysage urbain quotidien, cet édifice représente aussi, pour les historiens, un élément majeur du patrimoine industriel contemporain. Bien qu'informée, depuis dix ans, de l'intérêt suscité par cette oeuvre, la municipalité a programmé sa destruction. On invoque une opération immobilière autour de la future gare TGV. Alors que l'on se mobilise, un peu partout dans le monde, pour une meilleure prise en compte du patrimoine récent, la destruction du tri postal de Nancy constituerait un acte rétrograde.

Price:

(available to order)
Summary:
In recent architecture theory and practise there has been a tendency to refer to exteriors as a skin concealing an interior, as opposed to the traditional and more physical concepts of surface, flatness, and depth. The computer now enables the architect to call his design into life, free from the rigid material form, and view it as a flexible and interactive creation. In this book, the concepts of flatness and surface tension are examined in the light of virtual design and built reality. A selection of projects are presented to show how architects regard space and surfaces in modern architectural practice in the digital age.
