Summary:
For years, architects have enjoyed the challenge of incorporating lightweight structures -- fabrics, tents, canopies, membranes, and so on -- into their designs. Such materials are a welcome boon to architectural creativity, allowing designers to envision spaces that take innovative shapes and interact with their surroundings in ways unattainable with conventional materials. Recent years have seen an increase in the use of such structures, in part because advances in computer technology have made it easier to render and model such projects, and in part because such structures are ideally suited to today's increasing concerns about environmentalism and sustainability. The Magic of Tents showcases innovative uses of lightweight, tented structures from across the United States and around the world -- from an Arizona school to an Istanbul bank, from a Miami nightclub on the beach to a private home in Germany, from corporate headquarters in Los Angeles to offices in Oslo, and many more! The book features both residential and commercial projects, projects with both exterior and interior usages, projects where the tented element is the driving component of the design, and projects that incorporate lightweight structures to accent or address a specific need. Endlessly flexible, nurturing of creativity, cost- and energy-conscious, tented structures are an ideal means to address many concerns of modern architecture -- a creative means to not only define space, but also to transform it into something to meet all sorts of design needs, for projects both grand and small.

Au travers d’une trentaine de monographies largement illustrées, cet ouvrage inscrit l’hôpital dans sa relation au monde social, politique, médical et économique. Maladrerie, hospice, Hôtel-Dieu, charité, hôpital général, asile, lazaret, clinique, sanatorium, centre héliomarin ou centre hospitalier, tous ces lieux portent en eux la fonction vitale de l’hôpital. Dans un large tour de France, mêlant des présentations d’hôpitaux en activité et de bâtiments réaffectés, il invite le lecteur à prendre conscience de la fragilité d’un patrimoine peu connu, de plus en plus menacé, qui peine à se moderniser. Après l’abandon des hôpitaux médiévaux, la transformation des hôpitaux généraux, pointe désormais la disparition des hôpitaux pavillonnaires. Que faire alors d’un patrimoine de qualité qui ne remplit plus ses fonctions ? Le reconvertir à des fins publiques, le remettre sur le marché ou le démolir et reconstruire la ville sur elle-même ?

Summary:

Peter Jelavich, for example, links the suppression of the creative, liberal Weimar Berlin in the 1931 film "Berlin Alexanderplatz" to the rise of the Nazi regime and the end of one of the great eras of modernist experimentation in German visual culture; Jessie Labov considers Kieslowski’s treatment of the Warsaw housing blok in "Dekalog" in terms of Solidarity’s strategy of resisting totalitarianism in 1980's Poland; Allan Siegel examines the motif of the city in a broad range of American and international cinema to demonstrate how film and society since the 1960's have been driven by the fading of mass political radicalism and the triumph of privatization and capital; Paula Massood uses the socially illuminating theories of Mikhail Bakhtin to examine the representation of the ghetto and urban underclass in recent African-American films such as "Menace II Society"; and Matthew Gandy examines the focus on disease in Todd Haynes’s "[Safe]" as a metaphor for social and spatial breakdown in contemporary Los Angeles.
