Summary:
Establishing an ethics of spatial justice to lead architecture forward, Dana Cuff shows why the discipline requires critical examination—in relation to not only buildings and the capital required to realize them but privilege, power, aesthetics, and sociality. The book draws on studies of architectural projects from around the world, with instructive case studies from Chile, Mexico, Japan, and the United States that focus in particular on urban centers, where architecture is most directly engaged with social justice issues. Emerging from more than two decades of the author's own project-based research, the volume examines ethically driven practices that break with professional conventions to correct long-standing inequities in the built environment, uncovering architecture's limits—and its potential.

Autant de questions posées ici, de manière concrète, pour que Paris reste une capitale habitée, vivante, et en perpétuel devenir.

Summary:
Cet ouvrage est à la fois une petite encyclopédie, qui s'adresse aux architectes et aux décorateurs, et un essai sur l'architecture de la plus célèbre des îles de l'Asie tropicale. Made Wijaya, architecte paysagiste amoureux de Bali, a puisé dans ses archives photographiques, constituées au cours des trente dernières années, pour nous faire découvrir et admirer l'architecture balinaise, ses origines, ses caractéristiques, ses variations et ses caprices. L'auteur commence par un tour d'horizon de l'architecture balinaise dans son contexte humain, le village. Il examine ensuite les éléments fondamentaux de cette architecture, la cour fermée et le pavillon. Il consacre les chapitres suivants aux matériaux de construction, à l'ornementation, la grande passion des Balinais, et aux influences étrangères, notamment chinoises et indochinoises. Au fil des pages, l'architecture complexe de Bali devient plus lisible et même surprenante. Made Wijaya étudie les tendances dans la construction contemporaine et exprime avec passion ses points de vue sur une politique architecturale souhaitable pour Bali. Cette étude est constellée d'exemples d'adaptation de l'architecture traditionnelle balinaise dans les maisons modernes et les grands hôtels de l'île. Outre les photographies personnelles de Wijaya, cet ouvrage est illustré par les œuvres de peintres et de photographes inondialeinent célèbres, parmi lesquels Tim Street-Porter, Rio Helmi, Chang Huai-Yan, Dent Chung, et Bruce Granquist. Les architectes et les décorateurs trouveront dans cet ouvrage un guide de référence particulièrement utile sur les matériaux, les différents types de construction, l'ornementation, en même temps que des idées pour l'utilisation de l'espace. Les amoureux de Bali accueilleront avec enthousiasme cette étude sur un monde en rapide évolution
