One of very few writers to be awarded the RIBA’s highest honour, the Royal Gold Medal, in 2014, and author of countless books and essays, his influence over the past 60 years cannot be underestimated. In this memoir he tells for the first time of how his life’s experiences shaped his working life. He addresses the dualities between which he had to navigate: Jewish/Polish, Polish/British and later, Practice/Scholarship. He spent most of his working life between the US and UK and worked both as a designer and a writer; as such his ground-breaking ideas and work have had a major impact on the thinking of architects and designers since the 1960s and continue to do so to this day.

Comment essayer de construire un récit dans lequel les citoyens se retrouvent, dans lequel les élus s'engagent. La fragilité, aujourd'hui, des êtres humains, auxquels on demande de s'inventer sans cesse, exige des responsables publics qu'ils soient capables de fixer un cap et que la politique produise ce récit dans lequel chacun trouve sa place. Ce livre n'a pas de prétention scientifique. Il se veut une manière de raconter la ville, une lecture de ville à travers une expérience d'élu et de professionnel, tout au long de quelques dizaines d'années de pratique.

Summary:

In this public drawing time is suspended and expanded; futures, presents, and pasts converge; and the act of drawing becomes an instrument of dialogue and engagement. Tsukamoto and Kaijima later spoke about the project with K. Michael Hays, Eliot Noyes Professor of Architectural Theory at Harvard s Graduate School of Design, and reflected on representation, occupation, and the democracy of architecture. They unfolded their concept of an ecology of livelihood, wherein shadowless figures, objects, and spaces coexist with construction details. Explaining their belief in the behavioral capacities of humans, architecture, and nature, Tsukamoto and Kaijima revealed the generosity of spirit in their work, and the importance of pushing such capacities to their most yielding limits.
