Il y a un siècle, les architectes du Bauhaus s'étaient fixé pour objectif de civiliser et de démocratiser la ville moderne, avec une architecture sobre du less is more élaborée au rythme de l'évolution des sociétés. Cet impératif n'a rien perdu de son importance. Pourquoi les jeunes architectes du XXI? siècle ne pourraient-ils pas, pour combattre la brutalité de la ville contemporaine, qui malmène ses habitants autant qu'elle est malmenée par les ruptures climatiques et écologiques, opérer le croisement de toutes les ressources existantes en termes matériels, historiques et symboliques, pour construire autrement ? Travail considérable certes, mais qui éviterait ce « fonctionnalisme vert », en vogue aujourd'hui, qui remplace les modèles dogmatiques et sans mémoire de l'architecture internationale par des écomodèles qui le sont tout autant. C'est à cette réflexion essentielle que se sont attelés les auteurs de cet ouvrage. Pour que nous puissions enfin passer du « less is more » au « better with less » !

Summary:

Its striking designs are characterized by the fact that they do without eccentric gestures. Instead, carefully coordinated materials, proportions and forms create a unity in which old and new, tradition and innovation are on a par with each other. This monograph documents the sophisticated solutions of 23 international projects realised by David Chipperfield Architects London, Berlin, Milan, and Shanghai. The selection from the firm’s extensive portfolio presents different building typologies and construction tasks, be it new buildings, restoration, extensions or interiors. A view behind the scenes retells the challenge of major architectural milestones.

Summary:
This book brings together key works of the noted architect and architectural theorist Christopher Alexander (1936–2022), many of which have not been published before. The book contains twenty-five essays and other works, many chosen from the newly organized Christopher Alexander archive, providing a window into the ideas and thought process of one of the most innovative architectural thinkers of the twentieth century. The items span Alexander’s fifty-year career, beginning with an early version of his PhD dissertation based on fieldwork in India, continuing to fifteen years in the development of "A Pattern Language", one of the best-selling books in the history of architecture, and proceeding to the writing of "The Nature of Order", Alexander’s four-volume masterwork, and beyond. The writings combine theory and descriptions of practice, and together support a blueprint for the development of a new, humane way of building, while also providing a window into the mind of an extraordinary thinker, teacher and professional.

Summary:
With Neri and Hu Design and Research Office, the Chinese avantgarde in architecture, research and teaching, product and interior design has arrived in Europe. This publication accompanies the exhibition "Reflective Nostalgia" presented at the Aedes Architecture Forum (Berlin), which aimed to highlight the way in which Lyndon Neri and Rossana Hu examine the historical and the contemporary as well as the listed and the everyday and to transform them into new uses in a respectful and future-oriented manner. Their transdisciplinary design approach is in the DNA of the studio. The success of the broad spectrum of their work is reflected in numerous international awards. The exhibition installation featured architectural models, photographs and videos, as well as a selection of furniture, showcasing Neri and Hu's alternative reading of historical contexts, including all the contradictions and details, as well as the unexpected spatial compositions with which they respond.
