Summary:
Landscape architecture is at a crossroads. The ability to draw upon interdisciplinary perspectives and generate insights from the combined vantage points of design, environmental studies, and the social sciences puts it in a prime position to address the most pressing issues of our time, such as climate change and social inequality. Its current reliance on digital and technological solutions, however, has increasingly caused landscape architects to lose sight of the ways in which humans actually use spaces. And while landscapes are designed all over the world, the discipline remains inordinately centered on the Global North. ''Landscape Fieldwork'' alters that long-standing paradigm through real-life examples that provide tools for practitioners to engage more deeply with multidimensional, diverse landscapes and the communities that create, live in, and use them.

Summary:
BIG is an internationally operating creative group of architects, designers, urban and landscape planners, interior and product designers, researchers and inventors. The architecture of BIG is created on the basis of an observation of the environment and is suitable for a contemporary form of living. The secret of their architecture lies in the combination of utopia and pragmatism. This monograph shows how this can work. From small projects to a gigantic housing block, from urban space to museum – everything that makes urban architecture fascinating is included. This monograph presents 19 exciting projects from BIG’s creative workshop. It invites to a new experience of architecture.

Summary:
Paysage 2 est le second volet d'un dossier de Techniques & Architecture consacré au paysage, le premier étant paru il y a deux mois. Rappelons que Paysage 1 faisait le point sur les notions mêmes de paysage et de paysagiste, en pointant les domaines de compétences de ce dernier. Ce nouveau dossier souligne l'importance du développement durable en matière de paysage et de la culture technique, à travers des réalisations variées, au croisement de l'aménagement et de l'urbanisme. Comme dans chaque numéro, l'Agenda offre une sélection des principaux rendez-vous culturels et professionnels du monde de l'architecture et du design. La rubrique Journal s'intéresse à plusieurs grandes expositions du moment (Zones arides à Nantes, Rembrandt, etc.) et sur l'événement « Luxembourg, capitale européenne ». La rubrique Actualité présente des réalisations très diverses : l'extension de l'hotel de ville de Marseille (F. Hammoutène, architecte), le musée de l'automobile de Mulhouse (Studio Milou, architecte), un concept original de bureau-péniche sur la Seine (J.-F. Finot, D. Daversin, architectes et les Frères Bouroullec, designers). La rubrique Design rend hommage à l'éditeur Danese et développe le Medamorph du designer Alberto Meda tandis que Sélection design revient sur le salon intérieur de Courtrai (Belgique). L'artiste Laura Lamiel surprend avec une mise en scène colorée, inspirée du Brésil.
