Summary:
Chow offers an alternate vision to the conventional suburban housing that characterizes much of our domestic landscape. Her integrated, original approach to design sees the residential setting as a fabric of interrelated spaces that supports cultural diversity and change, promotes sharing in a setting, and sustains a more intense use of land. With its concise, informative(...)

Summary:
Chow offers an alternate vision to the conventional suburban housing that characterizes much of our domestic landscape. Her integrated, original approach to design sees the residential setting as a fabric of interrelated spaces that supports cultural diversity and change, promotes sharing in a setting, and sustains a more intense use of land. With its concise, informative text and illustrations--including photographs and Chow's drawings--"Suburban space" challenges architects, landscape architects, developers, and planners to reconceptualize suburban housing. Chow has made comparative studies of neighborhoods in Boston, Charleston, San Francisco, Levittown, Radburn, and housing by Rudolf Schindler and Irving Gill, as well as other residential settings. Her argument for a fabric of dwelling is founded not on generalizations about how people live but on documented observations of the particular ways in which people organize their daily lives. This book demonstrates how one of the most disparaged yet common types of housing in the United States can become more environmentally and culturally viable.

Summary:
A compelling mixture of manifesto and manual, Places for Strangers builds on the set of principles and attitudes that have long driven London-based Mae Architects to advocate a new position on urban design and architecture, while also elucidating an approach to actually producing critically engaged design.

By investigating mapping, drawing, diagramming and photography they construct an alternative reading of place, making familiar places strange and strange places familiar.

Summary:
Quelles seraient les conséquences, dans l’espace urbain, de l’abolition de la voiture? « Post-car world » tente de répondre à cette question dans le contexte de la descente énergétique, à l’heure où la mobilité des personnes, des biens ainsi que du vivant représente le thème clé autour duquel reconfigurer le monde urbain. La question s’impose par son urgence dans la ville-territoire – soit la ville dispersée, à basse densité bâtie –, encore largement dépendante de l’usage de la voiture et oubliée des mesures favorisant les mobilités alternatives, engagées en revanche dans les villes denses. En prenant comme cas d’étude la métropole lémanique entre Genève et Lausanne, les auteurs développent une exploration à la fois cartographique, sociologique, historique, photographique et projectuelle de cette ville-territoire, visant à détecter ses potentiels de changement. En considérant la ville comme un palimpseste issu d’un processus d’incessantes modifications, une approche sociologique et une approche de recherche by design s’associent ici pour renverser le paradigme urbano-fonctionnel actuel et faire émerger différents futurs par les entrelacs des structures et restes matériels, des pratiques et des imaginaires sociaux.

Summary:
Ce livre est le premier ouvrage d'urbanisme opérationnel dont les lecteurs français ont pu disposer au début du XXe siècle. Il offre à la fois une réflexion sur le nécessaire aménagement global des villes et sur les techniques particulières de planification de leurs extensions périphériques sous la forme de cités-jardins. Le souci premier de mettre des logements confortables dans un cadre urbain agréable à la disposition des classes populaires cède ici la place à un mode proprement urbanistique d'organisation des cités que la poussée démographique et l'industrialisation menacent de dislocation. Publié à Londres en 1909 sous le titre Town Planning in Practice, an Introduction to the Art of designing Cities and Suburbs, il tient à la fois du town planning et de l'urban design. Proposant l'étude d'un vaste éventail de villes et villages (Europe, Etats- Unis...), il intéressera au premier chef les tenants de ce qui est à cette époque un nouveau champ d'activité professionnelle désigné par le vocable "urbanisme", se voulant à la fois un art et une science.

Harvard University Graduate School of Design has always recognized the indispensable importance and values of architecture, landscape architecture, urban planning, and urban design, yet has transcended their individual aspirations through intellectual cross-fertilization and collaboration. The material presented in this publication forms a small part of the incredible range and diversity of proposals and visions that the GSD students and faculty have produced during the past academic year. This work is indicative of the School s commitment, as a global leader in the field, to exploring and articulating transformative ideas through the power of design. It is as important for us to share and communicate the outcome of our research and design investigations as it is to show the fertile circumstances and conditions for the making of these projects.
