Summary:
This monographic publication covers the complete career of this exceptional French craftsman, designer and engineer.

Summary:
À l’occasion du dixième anniversaire de 9/11, 'A'A' consacre un dossier spécial à la ville de New York. La rubrique "chantier" revient sur l’après World Trade Center. Ground Zero, débarrassé de ses gravats, laisse aujourd’hui la place au projet visionnaire de l’architecte Daniel Libeskind qui livre à 'A'A' son point de vue sur la mutation de cet immense site en construction et sur les leçons tirées des attentats de 2001. La rubrique "projets" passe en revue le nouveau skyline qui se dessine sur l’île de Manhattan, qui, depuis dix ans, a renoué avec les cabinets d’architectes internationaux et une vision urbaine cohérente. De quoi susciter la polémique mais aussi élever le débat. Neuf projets et réalisations de grande hauteur, un texte de Jean-Louis Cohen et un entretien avec Rick Bell apportent une vision panoramique du renouveau architectural et urbanistique new yorkais.

Summary:
An increasing number of people want to live in city centres, where space is limited. This causes architecture to grow vertically, creating new worlds on top of old roofs. Examples of this, seen on the Rhine riverbank in Cologne, Copenhagen and Graz, show how charming these new living spaces can look. Eight roofs from around the world are examined in detail, each covered with different materials: Adam Kahn uses wood shingles for his 'swimming visitors' centre; Diller Scofidio designs a park on top of a restaurant's green roof; Hopkins Architects gives the steel supporting frame of the Olympic cycling stadium a dynamic swing; Zaha Hadid wallows in Glasgow, with curves made of zinc sheeting and Jürgen Mayer H. is under huge umbrellas in the Spanish sun. In the chapter »technology« the complex supporting structure of the polyurethane-laminated, veneer-layered timber construction will be explained in detail.

Summary:
Every gesture and action, even the simplest, is a project. The key words in design – method and precision – can be seen in everything: an inventory is the most effective way of collecting, ordering and deciphering everything we encounter. Inventario describes the “project” from widely different points of view, shifting freely between different disciplines bound together by the concept of creation: “project” is an object, a work of art, a building or even a part of nature, the preparing of a special dish, organizing of a trip, the taking of a photograph or writing of a short story.
