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.

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:
Since the early eighties, many architects have used the term "narrative" to describe their work. To architects the enduring attraction of narrative is that it offers a way of engaging with the way a city feels and works. Rather than reducing architecture to mere style or an overt emphasis on technology, it foregrounds the experiential dimension of architecture. Narrative(...)

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.

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.

L’origine de sa création fut le constat qu’aucune structure en France ne permettait de répondre efficacement aux besoins des patients, médecins et scientifiques : les différents spécialistes de la vision étaient jusqu’alors dispersés sur le territoire, empêchant l’interaction indispensable à un partage rapide des connaissances. L’ouvrage présentera ce nouveau complexe scientifique constitué d’un centre de recherche, d’un centre d’investigation clinique, d’un centre de référence pour les maladies rares ainsi que le rapport qui unit architecture - science.
