Summary:
In the wake of recent failures in America's urban infrastructure, an emerging group of activist designers are calling on architects to rethink their relationship to the city. For them, the future of the American city lies not in modernism's large-scale master plans or new urbanism's nostalgic community planning. Instead, they favor working with the realities of urban(...)

Summary:
In the wake of recent failures in America's urban infrastructure, an emerging group of activist designers are calling on architects to rethink their relationship to the city. For them, the future of the American city lies not in modernism's large-scale master plans or new urbanism's nostalgic community planning. Instead, they favor working with the realities of urban space, finding hidden opportunities in what already exists in our cities; they eschew monolithic, top-down approaches. Fast-Forward Urbanism presents a mixture of essays, opinions, and design projects by well-known architects and theorists including Stan Allen, Will Alsop, Lars Lerup, and Keller Easterling. Equal parts theory and practice, their ideas lay the groundwork for the next American metropolis.

Superblocks are the basic unit of China’s urban development, but they are also spatial instruments with social, cultural, environmental, and economic implications, operating between the scales of architecture and the city. These redefined ‘Megablocks’ then become laboratories for the consequences, opportunities, and potential global proliferation of Chinese urban models,(...)

Summary:
After more than a century of heroic urban visions, urban dwellers today live in suburban subdivisions, gated communities, edge cities, apartment towers, and slums. The contemporary cities we know are more often the embodiment of unexpected outcomes and unintended consequences rather than visionary planning. As an alternative approach for rethinking and remaking today’s(...)

Summary:
Fondateur et premier directeur de l’école du Bauhaus de 1919 à 1928, Walter Gropius fut un théoricien en même temps qu’un des meilleurs architectes modernes. Argan analyse l’oeuvre et, plus largement, la pensée de Gropius. Pour lui, la spécificité du Bauhaus tient à ce qu’il reflète la crise de la société allemande de l’entre-deux-guerres (et de toute la culture moderne)(...)

Pour lui, la spécificité du Bauhaus tient à ce qu’il reflète la crise de la société allemande de l’entre-deux-guerres (et de toute la culture moderne) tout en se proposant comme un instrument de réforme artistique visant à créer un modèle social différent. Le caractère emblématique que la personnalité et l’oeuvre de Gropius prennent à travers les mots enthousiasmants de Argan naît de ce que design industriel, architecture et urbanisme sont unis et traversés par une même valeur civique. Plus d’un siècle après sa parution, cette puissante idée raisonne encore.
