L’architecte Nicolas Gilsoul nous offre un bestiaire érudit et original des animaux peuplant nos villes. Une manière de nous reconnecter au vivant, pour dessiner de nouvelles perspectives sur l’art de concevoir la ville de demain avec le génie animal. La moule zébrée va-t-elle sauver New York ? Le scorpion terroriser les habitants de São Paulo ? Les kangourous s’ébattre dans la forêt de Rambouillet ? Savions-nous seulement que ces bêtes vivaient si près de chez nous ? En pleine crise de la biodiversité, nos villes semblent devenir des jungles hybrides où se croisent plus de créatures que dans nos forêts. Certaines ont muté, leurs comportements se sont transformés. La souris de Brooklyn résiste aux polluants lourds, l’escargot d’Amsterdam combat l’îlot de chaleur urbain, l’hirondelle de la Côte Est réduit sa voilure pour éviter les gratte-ciels. Au travers de 1 001 histoires de bêtes de villes, l’architecte Nicolas Gilsoul nous offre un bestiaire érudit de nos territoires et nous incite à nous reconnecter au vivant. En chemin, il dessine de nouvelles perspectives sur l’art de concevoir la ville avec le génie animal. À l’évidence, observer des bêtes, ça rend intelligent.

Summary:
The rediscovery of the city that has been evident recently has by no means superseded the human desire for nature. On the contrary, the goal has been finding urban solutions that do justice to these growing needs and do so in ways that meet the requirements for design, ecology, sociology, and economy. This publication addresses the subject of designing inner-city spaces. It documents twenty recently realized examples in Europe, most of which feature greenery, designed by international landscape architects such as Gustafson Porter, Field Operations, Michel Desvigne, Gross.Max, Latz + Partner, and West 8. The projects, built between 2004 and 2010, range from private urban gardens by way of squares, streets, and promenades to large-scale projects such as the revitalization of riverside areas or master plans for the green spaces of entire cities. Urban greenery is an important contribution to ecological urban development. The projects documented offer examples of how this can succeed using the most modern materials and technologies.

Summary:
Until recently, the construction of the cityscape tended to entail the subjugation of nature and landscape; the consequences of this approach have been climate change, water shortages and the loss of biodiversity. The twenty-first-century city must abide by a new model that deploys creative, sustainable solutions and a more holistic approach to urban development. Return of Landscape probes the future of the city, not only as a living space but also as the creative center of tomorrow’s society. Through spectacular aerial photographs by Alex S. MacLean, it compares the two extreme examples of Las Vegas and Venice--two very different cities currently struggling with similar ecological problems. In addition to these case studies, the book includes articles by leading experts in architecture and urban development.
