Summary:
Cet ouvrage replace les théories de l'urbanisme dans le contexte culturel, social, économique et politique de leur émergence. Il les met en perspective pour comprendre ce qui les unit ou les oppose. Les trois premières parties du livre montrent comment la diversité des expériences d'urbanisme, qu'ont connues les villes depuis le XVI° siècle, relèvent de trois modèles : - le modèle de la ville régulière qui organise l'espace à partir de principes et règles de nature géométrique (formes simples, murs se coupant à angle droit, symétrie du plan des constructions, régularité des ouvertures, continuité des façades, rapport entre hauteur du bâti et largeur des voies) ; - le modèle de la ville organique qui naît d'une critique de l'urbanisme haussmannien et s'appuie sur la géographie et l'histoire pour construire une action urbanistique qui prenne en compte les diversités spatiales et sociales ; - le modèle de la ville moderne qui cherche à adapter les structures urbaines à un progrès technique et économique qui s'incarne dans la voiture et l'immeuble résidentiel. La dernière partie montre comment ces modèles doivent être revisités pour répondre aux défis contemporains de la durabilité, de la résilience et de la transition écologique. Ce livre constitue un outil au service des étudiants, des chercheurs et des professionnels en montrant comment théories de l'urbanisme et projets opérationnels interagissent pour penser les transformations de la ville et agir sur son devenir.

Summary:
Working in rural China is unlike other countryside: it is full of contradiction, neither rural nor urban, both traditional and modern, abandoned in some areas and yet others are becoming cities overnight. It is in fact a laboratory for new ways of living. And it has become our laboratory for new ways of making architecture. Whereas contemporary architecture since the(...)

Summary:
Working in rural China is unlike other countryside: it is full of contradiction, neither rural nor urban, both traditional and modern, abandoned in some areas and yet others are becoming cities overnight. It is in fact a laboratory for new ways of living. And it has become our laboratory for new ways of making architecture. Whereas contemporary architecture since the advent of modernism has developed increasingly controlled, prototypical, and standardized mechanisms for building, our experiments embrace the opposite: a lack of control, taking place within the flux of political, social and economic uncertainties. The experiments presented here are examples taken from a series of design and build projects conducted from the Department of Architecture at the University of Hong Kong over the past 10 years. They are remarkable in their diffuse explorations and situations. Some were urgent post-earthquake reconstructions, often adapting to extreme topographies or taking place in the midst of major urbanizing transformations, whereas other experiments occurred in forgotten villages with left-behind craftspeople and their disappearing building cultures. These forays and what can be best described as adventures in building, left us with varied and novel (sometimes failed) experiments with structure and program. But they are presented here for the trait they have in common: an exploration of the limits of material, geometry, construction methods, and even historical context. As often occurs for architects working in a foreign landscape, the differences in language and culture have proven to be a source of constant miscommunication and surprising discovery. The lack of a common spoken language- these remote areas speak their own dialects- has placed an emphasis on drawing as another means of communication. Through drawing we have explored a means of design and a means of building. Therefore, this is also a book about ways of drawing that represent ways of control and, inversely perhaps, what not to control.
