Summary:
The automobile has brought about changes to the landscape that are nothing short of revolutionary. The dramatic reconfiguration of cities and the countryside to accommodate our taste for freedom of movement has been matched by a change in the way buildings themselves have been planned. Today, CAD and car-building techniques have opened up new possibilities for(...)

Summary:
The automobile has brought about changes to the landscape that are nothing short of revolutionary. The dramatic reconfiguration of cities and the countryside to accommodate our taste for freedom of movement has been matched by a change in the way buildings themselves have been planned. Today, CAD and car-building techniques have opened up new possibilities for architectural design and this book, edited by the London-based journalist Jonathan Bell, argues that the influence of the car on architectural and urban thinking is greater than ever. A compelling manifesto for the future of building design.

Summary:
In the 1960s and 1970s large, high-technology, inpatient oriented hospitals reflected the central role of such facilities in an expanding healthcare system. But hospital architecture and the healthcare system have vastly changed since then, in profound and unpredicted ways. This book explores for the first time how and why acute care hospitals and the often related psychiatric facilities, retirement communities, and community clinics have been transformed during the final decades of the twentieth century. The authors also consider utopian visions of unbuilt work and look ahead to the possible healthcare landscape of the future: "health villages," home-based care for the aging and aged population, and cyberclinics and virtual hospitals.

Summary:
L'architecture publique résulte souvent d'une lente maturation, due au nombre d'acteurs impliqués (politiques, usagers, concepteurs), à la prise en compte de contraintes qui découlent d'éléments aussi divers que le calendrier politique, la santé des finances publiques ou l'aménagement du territoire.Il en résulte une pratique du projet combinant de nombreux axes de réflexion, dont les enjeux concernant de multiples domaines tels que la culture, la mémoire, l'esthétique, la technologie, la sociologie, la politique ou encore l'économie. Il propose un corpus d'exemples, dont l'analyse, enrichie des réflexions de professeurs ayant suivi les différents projets présentés, met en lumière un processus d'échange particulièrement intéressant entre la réflexion spatiale des architectes et la vision institutionnelle des bibliothécaires et démontre la pertinence d'une confrontation entre la simulation offerte par l'exercice du projet dans un cadre académique et les besoins concrets d'une collectivité.

Summary:
In "Celluloid Skyline" James Sanders shows that the dream city of the movies, created by more than a century of films, may hold the secret to the allure and excitement of the actual place. Here are the cocktail parties and power lunches, the subway chases and opening nights, the playground rumbles and rooftop romances. Here is an invented Gotham, a place designed specifically for action, drama, and adventure, a city of bright avenues and mysterious side streets, of soaring towers and intimate corners, where remarkable people do exciting, amusing, romantic, scary things. Sanders takes us from the tenement to the penthouse, from New York to Hollywood and back again, from 1896 to the present, all the while showing how the real and mythic cities reflected, changed, and taught each other. Illustrated with scores of rare and unusual production images culled from Sanders's decade-long research in studio archives and private collections around the country, "Celluloid Skyline" offers a new way to see not only America’s greatest metropolis, but cities the world over
