Summary:
Architecture built for the purpose of living out a fantasy or for pure pleasure is multiplying at a breathtaking pace. The Mall of America, Dubai's The Palm, and Brandenburg's Tropical Island are all examples of architecture that do not fit into the traditional realm of buildings and function. Dream Worlds traces the idea of architecture and entertainment from its earliest incarnations, such as the Colosseum, to the late twentieth century, when examples of "architainment" have proliferated. It examines the post-modern desire for escapism and considers the future of this trend. Florian Holzherr's photographs capture each site as architectural structure, while complementary photographs by the author illustrate the sites in daily use.

Summary:
La médiocrité esthétique et le fonctionnalisme primaire de la reconstruction post 1945 sécrète une crise durable qui affecte l’architecture et l’urbanisme dans l’ensemble du monde occidental. A la "Cité radieuse" des années 1930 succède, au milieu du siècle, une nouvelle utopie la "Mégastructure". Hybride colossal traversant des territoires sans frontières, elle règle du même élan, et l’architecture, et l’urbanisme, et les infrastructures. Mais l’engouement pour ces grandes machines sensées résoudre les problèmes à l’échelle planétaire s’émousse durant les sixties. La "Mégastructure" cède le pas à l’"Architecture radicale", ce faisant on assiste au basculement d’une approche de l’architecture dont les références sont le besoin et la construction à une autre dont les références sont l’immédiateté et la consommation, les objets mobiles et le plaisir du corps. Cette transformation correspond au passage d’une architecture conçue en terme de progrès social et de bonheur humain, à une architecture de la révélation du monde existant. Première monographie exhaustive sur la période, Superarchitecture est abondamment illustrée à l’aide d’une iconographie originale issue des archives des Smithson, d’Hollein, de Fuller, Friedman, Archigram, Price, Archizoom, Superstudio, etc. De l’utopie critique qui se dégage des projets de ces acteurs et de la puissance évocatrice de leurs dessins, les architectes contemporains comme Koolhaas, Tschumi ou MRDV se sont fortement inspirés pour construire leur univers conceptuel.

The issue of race in architecture is a com-plicated and often divisive one. Traditional methods of architectural history and theory tend to attribute a city's civic and cultural identity to the dominant culture.

Summary:
The issue of race in architecture is a com-plicated and often divisive one. Traditional methods of architectural history and theory tend to attribute a city's civic and cultural identity to the dominant culture. Ignored are more marginal cultures without a tradition of public building, often preventing a complete understanding of the city and the forces that shape it. These essays explore the historic and contemporary effects of race upon the development of the built environment, and examine the myths and realities of America's racial landscapes. Its multidisciplinary approach identifies and interprets the black cultural landscape, examining its visual, spatial, and ideological dimensions. Contributors to this collection include Nathaniel Belcher, Felicia Davis, Sheryl Tucker deVasquez, K. Ian Grandison, Bradford Grant, Walter Hood, Lesley Lokko, Mabel O. Wilson, and Amy Weisser.

Summary:
The concept of sustainability requires environmentally friendly and socially acceptable methods of production and use, and this is no less true in the construction branch. Since the mid-1980s international organisations have been advocating the concept and since the environmental summit in Rio de Janeiro in 1992 it has become the centre of worldwide attention. In the context of architecture the concept calls for the use of intelligent technology, innovative constructions, ecologically friendly materials and use of energy which looks to the environment. This book sets out with an overview of the various approaches and developments in sustainable architecture, followed by an in-depth section on urbanism looking at several European towns. In the third section the technologies, materials and methods of ecological architecture are examined. Concluding the volume are 23 sophisticated and innovative examples from Europe which include works of Metron, Behnisch & Partner, Sonia Cortesse, Ian Ritchie, and Kauffmann Theilig & Partner amongst others.
