Summary:
Longtemps rattachée aux Beaux-Arts, l’architecture, d’abord simple section, est devenue au xxe siècle une discipline autonome — et majeure — du paysage français de l’enseignement supérieur. À Marseille, l’engouement des étudiants pour l’architecture avait très tôt révélé l’exiguïté des locaux en centre ville du palais Carli, réservé depuis le xixe siècle aux classes d’art. De projets de déménagement en perspectives d’extension, aucune solution satisfaisante ne sera trouvée avant le tournant historique de l’implantation de l’École d’architecture à Luminy, en 1967. En même temps que ceux de l’École des beaux-arts, ses bâtiments couleur craie prendront place dans le somptueux cadre naturel des calanques de Marseille. 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.

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(...)

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.

Summary:
Documenting architectural projects completed in the Netherlands in 2025, this publication is conceived as an open, panoramic record of contemporary practice. ‘NL25’ brings together work across scales, typologies, geographies, and office sizes, offering a broad and inclusive overview of the year’s built output. Rather than a narrowly curated selection, the book captures the diversity of architectural production shaping the Netherlands today, while maintaining a strong editorial language through its artfully designed format. ‘NL25’ therefore serves as both a snapshot of the present moment and a lasting reference for architects, institutions, and enthusiasts.

"Once upon a time, Rome was entirely reachable by car, as if the city were a vast expanse, left openly accessible: You could park anywhere, and the squares were not mere scenery but spaces for everyday use, places to be crossed, occupied and lived in. Reaching the heart of the city was a right, a need, a natural and familiar matter, never a fault. It was a time when(...)

Summary:
"Once upon a time, Rome was entirely reachable by car, as if the city were a vast expanse, left openly accessible: You could park anywhere, and the squares were not mere scenery but spaces for everyday use, places to be crossed, occupied and lived in. Reaching the heart of the city was a right, a need, a natural and familiar matter, never a fault. It was a time when modern citizens felt most at home in the historic centre, from ancient to medieval Rome, from the Renaissance polis to that of the Baroque period, from eighteenth-century Rome to that under King Umberto and right through to the twentieth century. The book traces the history of freedom of movement prior to the advent of limited traffic zones, railway rings, pedestrian areas and the utopia of the smart city. Paradoxically, this book explores the future of Rome through what has become forbidden."

"For me, the fascination with post-war Italian architecture stems in no small part from direct exposure to it – a familiarity that comes from teaching at the Accademia di Architettura in Mendrisio and countless visits to the country that lies just across the border." Written between 2012 and 2025, this is a collection of texts about the author's fascination with Italy and his interest in its architecture and urban culture. Many of the papers are adapted from lectures and course notes for students, and based on a way of working which prioritises learning by looking and advocates that architectural design should be rooted in the detailed observation of the existing.

Summary:
Questo progetto fotografico sui maestri dell’architettura a Napoli, che avrebbe potesaurirsi in un ennesimo atlante di monumenti del contemporaneo, è stato per Ferrara l’occasione per un nuovo viaggio attraverso mezzo secolo della storia di Napoli (con una coda al Museo del Sannio di Benevento). Ognuno dei dodici capitoli di cui si compone il percorso – qui riproposto di necessità in forma schematica – costituisce infatti un breve saggio di studio o, come suggerisce il fotografo statunitense Stephen Shore, il tentativo di dare forma e risolvere attraverso la sequenza, seppur provvisoriamente, un problema di rappresentazione elaborato sul campo. Abbandonando qualsiasi postura stilistica, il fotografo ha articolato secondo necessità visioni frontali e scorci, campi lunghissimi e dettagli, esterni ed interni, le luci ammorbidite dal cielo velato di nubi e il disegno chiaroscurale delle ombre portate.

Sait-on que Paris, fameuse «capitales du XIXe siècle», compte davantage de mètres carrés logés dans des architectures du XXe siècle que dans celles héritées de tous les autres siècles confondus? Et cette présence massive se double d'une variété à nulle autre comparable dans les formes, les dimensions, les plans ou les méthodes de construction. Des efflorescences de l'Art nouveau aux couleurs du postmodernisme, tous les genres, ou presque, ont eu droit de cité à Paris. Mais une ville n'est pas un catalogue de styles prédéfinis, fussent-ils représentés par des personnalités prestigieuses. C'est en considérant l'ensemble du bâti parisien, y compris dans es réalisations méconnues, que l'on prend la mesure pleine et entière de l'évolution du paysage architectural.

In every era, Paris has epitomized beauty and innovation in architecture— magnificent Gothic cathedrals, elegant hôtels and châteaux of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, the broad sweep of Haussmann in the 1870s, and most recently the Grands Projets of François Mitterrand.
