Summary:
In the age of the Anthropocene, in which humanity acts on cycles and systems with all its power and capital, architecture and energy together mean more than operational or embodied energy, active and passive solutions. In the face of the climate crisis, beyond the phase-out of fossil fuels, architecture has a mediating role; it is about socio-cultural rethinking.(...)

Summary:
In the age of the Anthropocene, in which humanity acts on cycles and systems with all its power and capital, architecture and energy together mean more than operational or embodied energy, active and passive solutions. In the face of the climate crisis, beyond the phase-out of fossil fuels, architecture has a mediating role; it is about socio-cultural rethinking. Disquietude addresses the entanglement between architecture and energy in the 20th century, using Portugal as an example. Featuring different local Portuguese voices, the publication identifies the potential for a transition that could be local, sustainable, diverse, and just and be meaningful also in an international perspective.

Summary:
Through much of the twentieth century, a diverse group of thinkers engaged in an interdisciplinary conversation about the meaning of time and history for modern art and architecture. The group included architects Louis Kahn, Everett Victor Meeks, James Gamble Rogers, Paul Rudolph, and Eero Saarinen; artists Anni and Josef Albers; philosopher Paul Weiss; and art historians Henri Focillon, George Kubler, Sibyl Moholy-Nagy, and Vincent Scully. These figures were unified by their resistance to the idea that, to be considered modern, art and architecture had to be of its time, as well as by the pivotal role that Yale University held as a backdrop to their thinking. These thinkers sponsored a new kind of approach, one that Eeva-Liisa Pelkonen terms ''untimely,'' emphasizing a departure from a sequential course of events. Ideas about temporal duration, new tradition, the presence of the past, and the shape of time were among the concepts they explored. With an interdisciplinary focus, Pelkonen reveals previously unexplored connections among key figures of American intellectual and artistic culture at midcentury whose works and words would shape modern architecture.

Ancien camp militaire squatté en 1971 par une population hétéroclite d'idéalistes et de mal-logés, cette bourgade d'un millier d'habitants est devenue une oasis semi-rurale de 34 hectares au cœur de la capitale du pays. Présentée ici en cinq décennies, son histoire en fait un exemple unique en Occident.

Summary:
L'Art déco apparaît dans le sillage de l'Art nouveau au cours des années 1920. Ce mouvement tire son origine des Arts décoratifs, mis sur le devant de la scène lors de l'Exposition internationale des arts décoratifs et industriels modernes de Paris en 1925. En pleines Années folles, la création artistique est alors éclatante. Décorateurs, ensembliers, architectes, ferronniers, etc. , s'associent pour concevoir des pavillons aux intérieurs richement décorés. Trait d'union entre l'ornementation excessive de l'Art nouveau et la rigueur formelle de l'architecture moderne - qui apparaît peu avant -, l'Art déco impose une esthétique élégante, faisant la part belle aux motifs géométriques, sans toutefois délaisser les courbes, et mettant en valeur la pureté des lignes et la sophistication des détails. L'Art déco accompagne le développement de la modernité et de nouveaux équipements tels que gares, cinémas, piscines, musées, etc. , où s'expriment les idées de vitesse, de voyage, de dépaysement et de divertissement ; mais il se manifeste également dans des programmes plus traditionnels comme les édifices administratifs ou religieux, par exemple. Ce nouvel opus de la collection "Cinq" offre un panorama représentatif de ce mouvement polymorphe, à travers cinq réalisations remarquables : l'église Saint-Louis de Vincennes, la bibliothèque Carnegie de Reims, le palais de la Porte-Dorée, la gare de Lens et l'hôtel de ville de Puteaux.

Summary:
"Built futures" brings together Shahed Saleem’s written and visual research on the British Mosque, to narrate how mosques have emerged, evolved and become established in Britain since the late nineteenth century. Critical texts describe the ways in which mosques have been created through the grassroots, self-funded and self-built endeavours of migrant Muslim communities of diverse backgrounds, as they have settled in Britain. Through this journey of research, writing and designing, Saleem challenges the norms and assumptions of his own architectural training and wider design culture, leading him to ask: where is architectural meaning made, and with whom does authorship actually reside? Mostly created through the adaptation of existing buildings, from pubs to cinemas, high street banks to domestic terraces, the mosques which emerge from these sites are a combination of cultural histories and architectural styles, resulting in unexpected and original buildings that are powerful expressions of minority community agency and empowerment.

Conçus par l’architecte du campus René Egger dans un style à la fois moderne et méditerranéen, ils seront dès leur inauguration le lieu d’une véritable ébullition culturelle, artistique et estudiantine.

From the construction of the Underground to slum clearance and the Blitz, buildings have long been damaged or demolished to pave way for the new.

Summary:
London has been rebuilt and reshaped perhaps more than any other city over its two-millennia history. From the construction of the Underground to slum clearance and the Blitz, buildings have long been damaged or demolished to pave way for the new. Today, demolition is big business, and around 3500 buildings are destroyed each year, most of which are social housing. Paul Knox traces the history of London from the Great Fire to the present day through twenty-five lost buildings. Knox explores surprising and unusual locations in the city’s history, like the Necropolis Station in Waterloo used by funeral parties traveling to a burial ground in Surrey. We see historic landmarks, like Christ Church Greyfriars and the Crystal Palace, as well as everyday places like the White Horse pub in Poplar and a housing estate in Hackney.
