Summary:
This book tells the story of the architects and buildings that have defined Australia’s architectural culture since the founding of the modern nation through Federation in 1901. That year marked the beginning of a search for better city forms and buildings to accommodate the changing realities of Australian life and to express an emerging, distinctive, and, eventually, confident Australian identity. While Sydney and Melbourne were the settings for many of the major buildings, all states and territories developed architectural traditions based on distinctive histories and climates. Harry Margalit explores the flowering of these many architectural variants, from the bid to create a model city in Canberra, through the stylistic battles that opened a space for modernism, to the idealism of postwar reconstruction, and beyond to the new millennium. Australia reveals a vibrant and influential culture of the built environment, at its best when it matches civic idealism with the sensuality of a country of stunning light and landscapes.

Summary:
Films use architecture as visual shorthand to tell viewers everything they need to know about the characters in a short amount of time. Illustrated by a diverse range of films from different eras and cultures, this book investigates the reciprocity between film and architecture. Using a phenomenological approach, it describes how we, the viewers, can learn how to read architecture and design in film in order to see the many inherent messages. Architecture’s representational capacity contributes to the plausibility or 'reality' possible in film. The book provides an ontological understanding that clarifies and stabilizes the reciprocity of the actual world and a filmic world of illusion and human imagination, thereby shedding light on both film and architecture.

Summary:
Défendre une architecture du bien commun, signifie interroger le bâtiment mais aussi les conditions de son édification, les pratiques spatiales, l’usage social, l’attachement au lieu. En s’appuyant sur des exemples oasiens au Maroc, l’ouvrage développe une réflexion critique qui s’attache à corriger une certaine idée de la modernité afin de définir les conditions d’une nouvelle régulation de la production architecturale dans un contexte de forte contrainte environnementale. Il s’agit donc de dépasser l’esthétique de l’héritage et interroger plutôt son capital de résilience. C’est cette dynamique constante de l’adaptation qui est en souffrance aujourd’hui et qu’il faut réactiver pour sortir du tout-béton destructeur des potentiels environnementaux et sociétaux.

Together these twin volumes reflect on topics such as the utopian idea of a welfare state, the role of intersubjective and non-human points of view, and the impact of historical and current images on the making of realities. The task of these books is to present a wide range of research topics that combine historical, material, and critical research approaches that respond to our current crises and challenges. Ultimately, this enables new modes of knowledge production within architecture to be advanced in its relation to societal transformation.
