Summary:
The internationally active office White Arkitekter is dedicated to the renewable material wood and ecologically and socially sustainable architecture. In 2016, they designed a 20-storey building in Skellefteå in Sweden that will be one of the world’s tallest timber high-rise structures. Sara Kulturhus – a new cultural centre right in the core of the city combining theatre, museum, art gallery, public library, conference centre and hotel – opens this year. The building, designed to reduce embodied as well as operational carbon emissions, is mainly made of wood grown in the regional boreal forests. Solar panels and efficient energy systems further contribute to minimising the project's climate footprint.

Summary:
Twenty-five years ago, kister scheithauer gross completed its first brick building, the Institute for Biology in Halle. The replicated used brick of the façade is situated in the city centre in a self-evident way, and stands there today, still untouched by time. This is the starting point for the exhibition, which presents earlier brick buildings by the firm anew, along with current projects and buildings. Building in brick implies an ability to adapt to a location and its atmosphere as well as social structures. The regional identity and character of cities are often associated with a specific type of brick. At a time of digital production, brick factories today are almost anachronistic places, where elementary work processes with lots of manual work take place and the brick is given its specific sand-coloured, reddish-orange, or sometimes greenish shade through the firing of the minerals in the clay soil. Each stone is thus a unique specimen and as a haptically rich product also helps the architectural project tell its own story. On the basis of filigree paper models set on brick bases, the exhibition presents eight projects by kister scheithauer gross, which has been designing and working with the sustainable and sensual material for a quarter of a century.

Que ce soit en développant les réseaux de transport, en protégeant les milieux naturels, en planifiant la densification des agglomérations ou encore en organisation la gestion des matières résiduelles, ces gouvernements de proximité sont en effet au centre des enjeux écologiques du XXIe siècle. En revanche, si plusieurs leviers de pouvoir déterminants dans la transition verte et durable se trouvent entre les mains des administrations municipales, leur actionnement semble rester timide dans beaucoup de villes et municipalités québécoises.

Summary:
This book offers a selection Kazuo Shinohara's rarely seen colour slides, which were made during his travels. The pictures are for the most part rapidly composed and casually shot, and were mainly taken in cities. Featured are snapshots from his five significant overseas journeys, which he embarked on between 1972 and 1985. From street scenes and impressions of townscapes, to the occasional monumental building or open space, the images were captured on 35 mm film for the purpose of recording details, unusual perspectives, and mere oddities. It is the travel diary of a seasoned architect.

Les Editions Fourre-Tout ont remporté, en association avec le collectif AJAP14 et OBRAS, la réalisation du catalogue du Pavillon Français de la 15e Biennale d’Architecture de Venise 2016. Il s’agit d’abord et avant tout de la formalisation éditoriale d’un propos plus large que le projet scénographique – à savoir, un état des lieux de la France péri-urbaine, et de la transformation de son quotidien. Cet état des lieux se manifeste surtout par une campagne de recension de projets d’architecture auprès d’acteurs locaux, et notamment des Ecoles nationales d’Architecture, qui permettent au livre d’approcher de cette masse critique: au total, près de 150 projets sont documentés dans le livre, qui déploie par ailleurs un discours crtique lié aux thématiques générales de l’exposition.
