Centered on his synthesis of the American republic's architectural and democratic traditions, Allan Greenberg's essay moves across geography and through history as the renowned architect and scholar makes the case that America's architectural tradition and political ideals are deeply connected. At the core of the American democratic architectural tradition is the modest, single-family house, which gave rise to the statehouse, the courthouse, the firehouse, the schoolhouse, the jailhouse, and the President's house (as it was known before it became the White House).

Summary:
Throughout their history, architecture exhibitions have embraced different approaches and constructed other modes of action within the discipline, playing a pivotal role in disseminating, diffusing, and experimenting with architectural culture. This volume looks at curatorial practice in architecture and how ecological issues are addressed in the context of curatorial thinking and exhibition-making. Five architects with a curatorial practice are interviewed (Paola Antonelli, Pedro Gadanho, Paula Nascimento, Maria Otero Verzier, and Paulo Tavares), all of whom contribute to current debates in architecture while exploring how to perceive the main challenges of our world.

Summary:
Les matériaux ont joué un rôle très important sur la genèse du modernisme. Ils ont été utilisés en fonction de leurs propriétés techniques pour réaliser des structures aux caractéristiques complexes et sans des exigences esthétiques. Le talent de nombreux architectes fut nécessaire pour découvrir le potentiel esthétique de ces matériaux. De nos jours, la situation est totalement différente. Les architectes ne doivent plus adapter leurs conceptions à quelques matériaux. Aujourd'hui ils sont très variés et disposent de propriétés faites sur mesure et il est même possible de commander la production de matériaux aux caractéristiques spécifiques. Cet ouvrage fait le point sur les principaux matériaux de constructions: le plastique, le bois, le verre, le béton et le métal. Toutes les caractéristiques spécifiques de chacun de ces matériaux sont expliquées de manière très précise au moyen de croquis, de tableaux et d'images, illustrant leur potentiel et capacités architecturales.
