La rencontre de ces deux disciplines, qui traitent toutes deux des corps en mouvement, a récemment donné lieu à des commandes architecturales fortes. Ces réalisations illustrent la créativité de l'architecture française d'aujourd'hui, mais aussi, en ouvrant l'architecture au croisement avec d'autres arts qui sont l'essence même de la rencontre entre l'individu privé et le citoyen public, elles montrent combien l'architecture s'inscrit activement dans la conscience esthétique et sociale d'aujourd'hui.

But after the box is vacated, sometimes after only a few years, a community is left with a decision about what to do with the structure. Christensen focuses on empty Wal-Mart and Kmart stores to discuss 10 imaginative and successful projects converting boxes into a library, a Head Start center and a senior resource center, among others. But she also questions whether we should want a future landscape of renovated big box stores: We are what we build, she says.
