Summary:
A profound social change can be observed in the areas of mobility, work, and trade, as well as in the practice of faith, especially in cities. As a result, certain building typologies such as petrol stations, offices, shopping centers, cinemas, and churches are being used less, thus becoming increasingly obsolete and contributing to the obsolescence of the city.

Summary:
A profound social change can be observed in the areas of mobility, work, and trade, as well as in the practice of faith, especially in cities. As a result, certain building typologies such as petrol stations, offices, shopping centers, cinemas, and churches are being used less, thus becoming increasingly obsolete and contributing to the obsolescence of the city. Three strategies must be considered for the efficient transformation of these structures: the conversion of existing architecture and the preservation of the gray energy they embody; the maximization of land use; and the strengthening of ecological functions to improve the urban microclimate and the quality of living space.

Depuis plus de trente ans, cette ingénieure devenue urbaniste explore les relations intimes entre ville, technique et environnement, portée par un même fil rouge : rendre visible l'invisible. À rebours des approches strictement formelles de l'urbanisme, elle révèle la part souterraine et matérielle des métropoles - flux d'eau, d'énergie et de matières, état des sols, pollutions, déchets -, tous ces mécanismes discrets sans lesquels les villes ne pourraient exister. En introduisant le concept de « métabolisme territorial », qu'elle développe comme une scientifique engagée, Sabine Barles propose un changement de regard décisif.

Summary:
Ce livre aborde les défis de la transition sociale et écologique en explorant comment l’espace et ses formes influencent la façon dont nous habitons les territoires urbains. La transition, avec ses implications biopolitiques, sert de point de départ pour repenser la coexistence entre humains et non-humains, centres et périphéries. L’ouvrage propose un nouveau projet territorial et urbain: un laboratoire d’expérimentations et de prototypes éco-socio-spatiaux. Au cœur de cette réflexion, deux notions clés: le sol et le travail. Ces concepts permettent d’analyser les inégalités écologiques, économiques et sociales, tout en offrant une vision plus large et transfrontalière du territoire, au-delà des approches locales et fragmentées. En s’appuyant sur des projets récents dans le Grand Genève, les auteur.e.s utilisent des outils de conception pour mieux comprendre les transformations du territoire. Ils questionnent les modèles biopolitiques actuels, critiquant l’abandon de l’idéal d’un droit universel à une vie meilleure. À travers trois laboratoires expérimentaux, ils invitent à voir chaque projet comme une opportunité d’imaginer de nouvelles formes de coopération et de redistribution, tout en explorant les changements profonds à l’œuvre.

Summary:
''Los Angeles Lost and Found'' is a collection of essays and photographs that explores Los Angeles as a city of constant reinvention, where history is often buried beneath layers of change. Experience designer Margaret Chandra Kerrison uses the lens of narrative placemaking to examine how LA’s physical spaces—its streets, neighborhoods, and landmarks—shape both individual and collective identity. What sets this collection apart is Kerrison’s deeply personal approach. She weaves her own story into the fabric of the city’s landscape, grounding cultural analysis in lived experience. Her reflections on the recent Los Angeles wildfires are especially poignant, revealing how natural disaster can strip a place down to its essence and reshape the stories we tell about it. Through these moments of vulnerability, she illustrates how loss and resilience are embedded in the urban environment. Blending memoir with observation, Kerrison highlights how overlooked spaces carry emotional weight and cultural memory. In doing so, she invites readers to view Los Angeles not just as a city of spectacle, but as a living, breathing narrative. Los Angeles Lost and Found is both intimate and expansive, offering a portrait of a city that continues to inspire and challenge those who call it home—or dream of doing so.

Surrounded by unyielding waters, islands have long served as ideal sites of banishment: places where those deemed unfit to exist within the political order, are cast away. Today, at the edges of democracy, and as obedience increasingly becomes an imperative for public presence, the specter of exile islands resurfaces. The entry point for this book is a research trip to Gyaros, an island scarred by memories of displacement and persecution — memories today at risk of erasure and privatization. Islands of Exile weaves together stories of exiled mothers, dogs, dissidents, and psychiatric patients in the Aegean Sea, narrating how humans can carve out spaces of hope and persistence.

Summary:
While the largest parts of icebergs — or islands — remain beneath the sea surface, often unmapped and perilous, a myriad of creatures and non-organic matter connect them to other lands. Nowadays, in the era of the climate crisis, what is hidden in the depths of the sea exponentially manifests the impact of anthropogenic activity on the planet. Plastic waste and pollution, deep sea mining, and undersea network infrastructures affect marine biodiversity and life on Earth at large. Mediterranean Icebergs sheds light on forms of agency, be it human, more-than-human, or machinic, that operate in marine environments, paying attention to their entanglements, encounters, and asymmetries. Addressing the interconnectedness of environmental, political, and legal issues, this book takes the Mediterranean as a starting point to discuss what is at stake for all lives depending on the planet’s seas and oceans.

''Eight Meditations on Architecture'' offers a rare and illuminating dialogue between two of Europe's most reflective architectural voices—Juhani Pallasmaa and Alberto Campo Baeza. Through a series of eight essays, the book examines eternal architectural themes—Beauty, Light, Time, Memory, Universality, Wisdom, Sacred, and Essentiality—revealing how enduring values shape the practice of building and the meaning of space. More than an academic treatise, this unique work underscores the necessity of cultural reflection and philosophical grounding in architectural practice. Written by architects whose writings are already essential reading in architectural education, these meditations offer a rigorous yet poetic inquiry into the discipline. Richly illustrated with contributions that interweave theory and personal insight, ''Eight Meditations on Architecture'' provides a space for reflection that is increasingly rare in contemporary discourse—one where theory and practice are not opposites but mutually reinforcing paths toward meaningful design.
