Il a notamment marqué l'architecture des aérogares au cours de sa longue carrière au sein d'Aéroports de Paris, avec l'emblématique aéroport de Roissy 1, puis Roissy 2, mais aussi avec sa production en Asie, au Japon et en Chine, où il fut l'un des premiers Français à s'imposer, que ce soit avec l'aéroport de Kansai, en 1988, ou encore l'opéra de Pékin, inauguré en 2007. Fondée sur une exigence constante de fonctionnalité et de rationalité technique, l'oeuvre de cet architecte et ingénieur est ancrée sur la notion de seuil, de passage et de transformation, qui met en jeu des principes fondamentaux : la terre et le ciel, l'Orient et l'Occident, la pensée et la matière. A travers ses recherches sur l'espace et le temps, la croissance organique, les ombres et les lumières, l'immobilité et le mouvement, Paul Andreu semble poursuivre une recherche essentielle sur la question de l'envol, du corps et de l'esprit, qu'il soit physique, symbolique ou poétique.

Summary:
The contributors to this highly original collection of essays explore the relationship between food and architecture, asking what can be learned by examining the (often metaphorical) intersection of the preparation of meals and the production of space. In a culture that includes the Food Channel and the knife-juggling chefs of Benihana, food has become not only an obsession but an alternative art form. The nineteen essays and "Gallery of Recipes" in "Eating Architecture" seize this moment to investigate how art and architecture engage issues of identity, ideology, conviviality, memory, and loss that cookery evokes. The essays are organized into four sections that lead the reader from the landscape to the kitchen, the table, and finally the mouth. The essays in "Place Settings" examine the relationships between food and location that arise in culinary colonialism and the global economy of tourism. "Philosophy in the Kitchen" traces the routines that create a site for aesthetic experimentation, including an examination of gingerbread houses as art, food, and architectural space. The essays in "Table Rules" consider the spatial and performative aspects of eating and the ways in which shared meals are among the most perishable and preserved cultural artifacts. Finally, "Embodied Taste" considers the sensual apprehension of food and what it means to consume a work of art. The "Gallery of Recipes" contains images by contemporary architects on the subject of eating architecture.

Summary:
Illnesses, wellness, and architecture are inseparable. Medical professionals and architects have always been in a kind of dance, often influencing one another, though the dance is not always synchronized. Drawing from a wide range of historical and contemporary case studies from ancient Greece to twentieth-century India to present-day New York City, Sick Architecture highlights a topic that has shaped our lives from the very beginnings of architecture to the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic and beyond. "Sick Architecture" goes beyond the sicknesses recognized by the medical profession to ask: What aspects of society may be ill, in need of care, or subject to pathologization? Similarly the book goes beyond physical buildings and cities to interrogate architecture’s policy protocols and spatial logics.
