This book is built from images, drawings and texts. These three types of documents are exposed in an elemental way, alone in the center of each page and isolated from the project to which they belong.

Summary:
This book is built from images, drawings and texts. These three types of documents are exposed in an elemental way, alone in the center of each page and isolated from the project to which they belong. The authors organized the inventory from a set of documents that first claim their independence and then undergo a peer dialogue. These two actions may seem to cancel each other out, but they actually both reaffirm a very basic idea, which holds that the interest of a conversation is closely related to the consistency of its interlocutors. The conversation that arises from each diptych is precisely what stimulates the appearance of a tacit project. A project that bypasses material organizations and that is only possible due the intervention of an active reader, capable of establishing connections between the printed documents. This book is a twofold response to what are the disciplinary assets that the architecture studio Adamo-Faiden produces and how they should be organized to accurately delineate the authors’ interests.

Summary:
This slim volume examines the architecture of the new ''Experimenta Science Center in Heilbronn'' from three different perspectives. Seen in terms of urban history, this building—designed by Berlin-based firm Sauerbruch Hutton—simultaneously stands as an icon and a tool for change. As a construction, it follows its own experimental path, both in organizational, structural and ecological terms. Finally, the project is the late offspring of a typological family of spiral buildings which stretches from antiquity via the modern movement up to the present. All three perspectives are captured in Florian Heilmeyer’s concise and lucid texts and are illustrated by numerous photos and drawings.

Summary:
The Pastoor van Ars Church, built in 1969 by the legendary Dutch Structuralist architect Aldo van Eyck (1918–99) in The Hague, is one of the few significant churches to emerge from the second half of the 20th century. This volume sheds light on the unique architectural and spatial qualities of the building. Although not a Catholic himself, Van Eyck made every effort to build an authentic and contemporary Catholic place of worship. To this end, he harked back to the original typology of the early Christian basilica, whose components he incorporated into new conceptions of space explored by the modernist avant-garde, in particular the dynamic geometries of Mondrian and Brancusi’s forms. Author Francis Strauven, who has previously written an extensive monograph on the Dutch architect, pays particular attention to the intensive design process, which he has reconstructed using more than 100 design sketches from the Van Eyck archive.

Summary:
Bruno Reichlin est l’un des plus grands théoriciens de l’architecture du XXe siècle. Dans son étude des œuvres clés de Le Corbusier, il envisage à la fois la nature même du bâtiment et son fondement théorique. Les textes de Reichlin et sa pratique architecturale sont marqués par son approche des signes et symboles se manifestant dans les œuvres construites ainsi qu’un vaste cadre référentiel allant de la littérature et du cinéma aux beaux-arts. Ce livre rassemble 13 essais sur l’œuvre de Le Corbusier, rédigés par Reichlin au cours d’une quarantaine d’années. À partir de constructions telles que la Villa La Roche, le Carpenter Center, la Petite Maison et les villas Savoye et Mandrot, sans oublier le projet pour l’hôpital à Venise, le livre explore les multiples aspects de la créativité de Le Corbusier dans leurs principes et leur mise en œuvre architecturale. Un très large fond de documents historiques et des graphiques analytiques spécialement conçus pour ces essais accompagnent les textes.

Summary:
Objet de rêve, la villa balnéaire formalise une invitation au voyage où, depuis la fin du XVIIIe, architectes et entrepreneurs rivalisent d'invention et multiplient les solutions d'articulation entre l'intérieur et l'extérieur où se déroule une grande part de la vie estivale. Entre 1945 et 1980, la villégiature devient tourisme de masse et les maîtres d'oeuvre doivent s'adapter à ce changement d'échelle. Le marché de la maison individuelle et celui de la maison balnéaire dont elle n'est qu'un aspect en sont bouleversés. La créativité foisonnante qui prévaut encore dans le contexte de la Reconstruction s'essouffle devant les réalités économiques et sociologiques d'une aspiration légitime du plus grand nombre à jouir d'une petite place au soleil en bord de mer. S'appuyant sur le corpus des 12000 maisons individuelles construites entre 1945 et 1980 sur le littoral de Charente-Maritime, à Saint-Georges-de-Didonne, Royan, Ronce-les-Bains, Fouras, Châtelaillon-Plage, La Rochelle, mais aussi dans les iles d'Aix, d'Oléron ou de Ré, l'ouvrage propose, pour la première fois à l'échelle d'un département, un panorama complet de la production des maisons du littoral, des villas modernes les plus inventives à la production de maisons ordinaires qui dessinent le paysage côtier contemporain. L'ouvrage questionne les façons d'être modernes et la place qu'y occupent les architectes et les entrepreneurs concepteurs, la notion de régionalisme au moment de son abandon et de sa renaissance à l'aube des années 1980 sous la forme d'un post-modernisme vernaculaire inventif.
