Summary:
This study investigates the various models of public buildings and civic space through the lens of the library. It takes a critical look at the history, present, and future transformation of this significant building typology that has recently emerged as a redefined community place, social condenser, and urban incubator for knowledge generation, storage, and sharing. In particular, the library has evolved as a vibrant and vital member of community development and as a basis for outreach efforts. This book presents 40 recent public and academic libraries from around the world. As the survey of precedents shows, the historical cases have informed the design of the recent libraries and the continuous development of the building type over time. Well-designed libraries are now in abundance, and the wider view of this study includes mediatheques and learning centers. The selection of contemporary projects focuses on urban libraries in Europe (Germany, Italy, Austria, Netherlands), the US, Canada, Mexico, Australia, Japan, and China.

Summary:
L'histoire du soin, et l'histoire des lieux du soin qui l'accompagne, est une histoire de soutien ; l'histoire des lieux et des architectures qui nous tiennent et nous soutiennent, plutôt qu'ils nous détiennent ou nous contiennent - même si l'histoire de ces lieux-là, ceux contenant plutôt que tenant, est à raconter en même temps car c'est en fait souvent la même.(...)

Plusieurs des exemples présents dans ce livre illustrent cette ambivalence, à l'image d'un bucolique sanatorium construit dans la forêt du Vexin dans les années 1930, et transformé quelques années plus tard en camp d'internement.

Reconceptualizing the decoration of our everyday environments through sculpture and installation, these artists explore, and sometimes dismantle, the current attitudes and the social furniture that reveal the public dimensions of our private worlds. In French the word "decor" refers to stage and film sets as well as interior design, and in a similar spirit the works in this volume occupy an arena midway between theater and everyday life.

Summary:
"Landscapes of play: A collection of imaginative spaces in Japan" is a self-published book exploring Japan’s unique and influential approach to outdoor play design, beginning with Mitsuru Senda’s pioneering of the “play apparatus” concept of the 1960s and extending to more contemporary play environments at the Showa Memorial Park in Tokyo. Through a combination of photography, research and personal reflections, it documents how these environments invite children and adults to play in ways that transcend conventional designs. The book also features a conversation with Norihiro Kanekiyo from Takano Landscape Planning —the office responsible for several of the projects in the book— which offers deep insight into their design approach to play and the role of nature in the conceptualization of these spaces.
