Summary:
This issue highlights the work of adama-faiden, founded in Buenos Aires in 2005 by Sebastián Adamo and Marcelo Faiden. Nearly two decades of work is traced through 34 projects in chronological order. From small residential projects in their early years, the studio has transitioned into an increasingly diverse practice, including a high-rise in central Buenos Aires and social housing in Europe. Regardless of scale, what remains consistent in their work is a considered approach to urban environments and a sensitivity to airflow. Their designs often feature permeable facades and cohabitating plants, creating a soft, fluid connection between interior and exterior.

Summary:
Cet ouvrage exauce le voeu de Le Corbusier (1887-1965) de voir éditées les six conférences qu'il prononça à Rio de Janeiro en août 1936. Après celles qu'il donna à Buenos Aires en 1929, ce livre est le deuxième recueil de conférences de l'architecte. Et, comme ce fut le cas à Alger, Moscou, Bruxelles, Athènes, Paris, Stockholm, Rome, Buenos Aires, São Paulo ou Montevideo, ces propos jouèrent un rôle central dans la propagation de ses idées sur l'architecture et l'urbanisme. L'importance de ce recueil tient au fait qu'il permet de mesurer le chemin parcouru par Le Corbusier entre 1929 et 1936. A travers les propos transcrits, la reproduction des dessins et des projections, on peut non seulement suivre la manière dont Le Corbusier transmettait son message, mais aussi reconstituer le temps et le rythme des conférences : les commentaires qu'il improvisait en restituent l'ambiance et les moments d'intensité.
