Summary:
Des bureaux de poste de campagne aux hôtels des postes monumentaux, des centres de tri urbains aux gigantesques plateformes industrielles contemporaines, La Poste possède un patrimoine architectural remarquable tant par sa variété que pas sa qualité, mis en lumière dans cet ouvrage de référence. L'architecture postale s'inscrit ainsi dans l'histoire durable qu'entretiennent les Français avec La Poste. Depuis les années 1880, adoptant les styles architecturaux qui se sont succédés tout au long du XXe siècle., La Poste a construit un parc immobilier dont la richesse est avant tout celle d'une exceptionnelle diversité au service des métiers qui la constituent. Une histoire qui reflète les mutations techniques, esthétiques, économiques et sociales de la France du XIXe au XXIe siècle. Une histoire émaillée de figures renommées de l'architecture de François-Charles le Cœur à Claude Prouvé, en passant par Léon Azéma, Joseph Bukiet ou encore Louis Arretche. D'autres grands noms s'invitent également ici, Jean-Christophe Ballot, Yann Charbonnier et Stéphane Couturier, trois grands photographes d'art contemporain, nous offrent leur regard sur des bâtiments emblématiques de l'architecture postale.

Summary:
The notion of “Baukultur” marked a fundamental step towards a comprehensive definition of the environment. The idea that landscape, historical architectural heritage, and the existing built context could converge to portray the richness and complexity of our future habitat now points to a collective strategic approach to design. In this context, the value of architecture emerges in several economic aspects, but also and essentially as a tool to convey the culture of transition within the Baukultur. Baukultur structures a theoretical framework around these concepts leaning on the research, design, and academic experience of six architectural and urban design practices, as specific readings of the existing built environment.

Summary:
What do we love about gardens, and what can landscape architecture be today? Guido Hager has been exploring these questions throughout the twenty-five years of his professional career. Based on an exhibition at Architekturforum Zürich, Hager has collected his ideas, insights, and experiences into a book featuring over three hundred illustrations and an abundance of creative thoughts on over sixty gardens, parks, squares, streets, and promenades. This publication provides a variety of perspectives on the garden in general as well as on the tradition of historical gardens. Hager shows how this garden culture has been translated into contemporary concepts that take site-specific contexts into consideration, reflecting on how structures can be designed to fit into a neighborhood, how they advance architecture, and whether or not they can simultaneously both stimulate and calm the senses.

Summary:
Les revendications féministes actuelles dans le domaine de l’architecture s’enracinent dans des décennies de réflexion critique, de militantisme politique, théorique et professionnel. Documentant l’engagement de plusieurs générations de penseurs-euses féministes, cette anthologie fait entendre quelques-unes des voix pionnières qui se sont élevées pour interroger le champ de l’architecture dans toutes ses dimensions, ses mécanismes sociaux, ses modes de production intellectuelle et professionnelle. Publiés entre 1977 et 1999, les douze textes fondateurs sélectionnés et présentés par la chercheuse Stéphanie Dadour éclairent un moment oublié de l’histoire de l’architecture nord-américaine. À une période où des notions fondamentales comme genre, intersectionnalité et queer sont forgées et progressivement introduites en architecture, les discours croisés de ces praticien-nes, théoricien-nes, historien-nes ou commissaires d’expositions dessinent un mouvement collectif qui n’existait pas auparavant et qui marquera indéfectiblement la littérature architecturale ultérieure.
