Il propose une analyse de la réglementation environnementale 2020 (RE2020) et de la loi Climat et résilience de 2021 pour en identifier les leviers de conception, les gestes d’éco-gestion et les pratiques possibles pour le bâti, la ville et le paysage. Il présente de nombreuses pistes de réflexion et des réalisations pratiques qui permettent de se projeter dans le monde de demain pour concevoir et construire autrement. Conçu par le mouvement Unisson(s), il ambitionne de créer l’émergence d’une nouvelle architecture répondant aux enjeux climatiques et énergétiques de demain incluant le bas carbone et le vivant.

The provenance of artworks is a burning issue in current scholarship and politics. Transpose provenance into architecture and it reveals new and surprising dimensions in the social, material and cultural lives of buildings and architectural artefacts, reframing questions of migration, movement and circulation. Provenance in architecture illuminates the intricate trajectories of fundamentally composite objects from their complex origins to their uncertain destinations. This dictionary examines architectural provenance across 101 key concepts from "Acquisition" to "Will". The entries provide new ways of writing architectural history, highlighting how architecture moves, is destroyed, survives and is transformed.

Summary:
Together with the first volume, Design Techniques, this second volume of the “SOLID” series, published in collaboration with Harvard GSD Department of Architecture, represents two approaches to the same question: how is the architectural project constructed? Architects today act upon organizations or systems that are social assemblies, sequences in time, or spatial networks. Yet these structures act upon architects as well. Is design reducible to organization, or vice versa? Faculty, critics and theorists, and students discuss various approaches and contribute personal experiences, working practices, and opportunities encountered in the field of design.

Summary:
In this book Pallasmaa progresses his case for a multi–sensory approach to architecture, espoused in The Eyes of the Skin, by taking a wider view of the role of embodiment in human existential reactions, experiences and expressions as well as the processes of making and thinking. ‘The Thinking Hand’ is a metaphor for the characteristic independence and autonomous activity of all our senses as they constantly scan the physical world. Prevailing educational philosophies continue to emphasise conceptual, intellectual and verbal knowledge over this tacit and non–conceptual wisdom of our embodied processes, which is so essential to our experience and understanding of the physical and the built.

Summary:
This book celebrates, by way of a dual narrative, the Italian Cultural Institute in Stockholm, designed and furnished by Gio Ponti to a commission from Carlo Maurilio Lerici. The essays aim to examine the events linked to the commission of the project itself, and to the planning and realization of the building together with its interior design. The volume contains a selection of images taken from the Institute's historical archive, as well as a new photographic reportage on the architectural and design elements featured in this building. It is well-known that Ponti took a great interest in Sweden (suffice it to think of all the space that was devoted to Swedish design in the pages of the magazine Domus from the early 1950s), yet it is fascinating to learn more and find answers regarding the dynamics that lay behind the making of this structure. Indeed, Gio Ponti managed to surpass the Swedish architect Ture Wennerholm's original idea, to breathe life into a project where the spaces, albeit organized according to function, succeed one another in a harmonious play of broken lines and different hues. Assisting him in the task were Pier Luigi Nervi and Ferruccio Rossetti. Gio Ponti gave life to a "classical modern" project in which art and architecture merge, proof that he had overcome the limits that were set by the trends characterizing that day and age. In so doing, he laid the groundwork for a new course in the cultural relations between Italy and Sweden.

Summary:
Precision is necessary in the field of architecture, and new technologies have increased demands for accuracy, particularly when the smallest errors can have outsized consequences. However, the importance of precision, or exactitude, has not received the consideration it merits. While themes of sustainability, performance, and formal innovation have been at the forefront of architectural scholarship for the past twenty years, this book moves beyond these concerns to explore the theoretical and practical demands exactitude makes on architecture as a field. The eleven essays collected here investigate the possibilities and shortcomings of exactitude and delve into current debates about the state of contemporary architecture as both a technological craft and artistic creation. Featuring new work by leading theorists, historians, editors, architects, and scholars, this volume brings theory and practice into insightful and productive conversations.
