Summary:
Computational Architecture showcases many form studies using digital tools and techniques like twisting, lofting, triangulating, drilling, knotting and framing. These techniques are used systematically to explore spatial, structural and geometrical conditions, leading to the emergence of abstract prototypes. As a second step each prototype is used to generate architectural solutions, enriched with data from site analysis and specific building programs.

Summary:
Dans un monde où il devient de plus en plus difficile de s’autoriser l’émerveillement, cette correspondance entre Anaïs Barbeau-Lavalette et Steve Gagnon plonge dans une quête de la joie. La joie choisie, réfléchie, travaillée. La joie comme une posture face aux injustices. La joie subversive, en socle à la colère, à la solitude, à la tristesse. Avec autant d’humour que de tendresse, les deux voix retracent ensemble le chemin fragile de la joie comme permission, comme désobéissance, comme moteur de résistance. Architectures de la joie est un grand livre, conduit avec une subtilité minutieuse, qui contribue à élucider à travers mille petites beautés rescapées une des questions inhérentes à notre époque : la joie est-elle possible ? Nécessaire ? Autorisée ?

Kate Orff has an optimistic and transformative message about our world: we can bring together social and ecological systems to sustainably remake our cities and landscapes. Part monograph, part manual, part manifesto, ''Toward an Urban Ecology'' reconceives urban landscape design as a form of activism, demonstrating how to move beyond familiar and increasingly outmoded ways of thinking about environmental, urban, and social issues as separate domains; and advocating for the synthesis of practice to create a truly urban ecology.
