Summary:
Fernando Romero is the founder of LCM (1999) and most recently LAR (2005), an office that considers architecture to be vital as a translator of current societal needs. LAR seeks to generate unprecedented spaces, explore new structures and geometries, and to implement new materials and construction methods. “Translation” divides the projects of LCM and LAR into three categories: 'Fluid Bodies' are long-lasting private projects, designed for specific situations and built with high-tech resources; 'Revised Boxes' are buildings of a more public nature, whose technology is based on industrial products. The Inbursa Bank building, located on one of Mexico City's most prestigious avenues, the Paseo de la Reforma, has a façade of laminated glass that becomes opaque or transparent depending on the visitors physical position; 'Boxes', the third category of projects, combines rapidly applicable, cheap low-tech architecture generated from commercial wholesale products, like the facade of the Cinna Bar which LCM gave a new skin of red-tinted glass.

Mais qu'est-ce qu'une ville de design ? Et comment le devient-on ? Si Anvers, Glasgow, Lisbonne, Montréal, Saint-Etienne, Stockholm et Times Square New York ont réussi à se positionner comme " nouvelles villes de design ", c'est qu'elles ont élaboré et mis en place des politiques et programmes favorisant la qualité en design sur leur territoire. Construit autour d'études de cas, cet ouvrage analyse les actions et événements à l'origine de l'émergence de ces sept villes en tant que ville de design. Appuyé sur les réflexions de François Barré, Saskia Sassen et John Thackara, il réunit également les points de vue d'élus, de designers réputés, ou appartenant à la relève, et de citoyens engagés.

Summary:
The only residence built by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe in America, Farnsworth House (1948-51) exemplifies the central tenet both of the International Style, be inverting the conventions of traditional architecture, and of Mies` own design philosophy. Commissioned by Dr Edith Farnsworth to build a weekend retreat, Mies designed the house as an envelope of glass and steel floating over the Illinois Fox River flood plain. Its spare interior was intended for a simpler, cleaner, and healthier lifestyle. Even before its completion, however, architect and client had fallen out over expenses and practical problems with the house, and by the time Lord Palumbo bought it in 1972, Farnsworth had changed many of the interior elements dictated so precisely by Mies. Following a ruinous flood in 1996, the house has been faithfully reconstructed to its original conception. Richly illustrated with detailed drawings and specially commissioned photography, this latest book provides an in depth account of this icon of twentieth century Modernist architecture.
