Les édifices construits entre 1920 et 1950, sauf de rares exemples, ne sont pas encore passés dans notre conscience patrimoniale. Ceux de Richer ne font pas exception; ils ont été parfois altérés.

Summary:
Les édifices construits entre 1920 et 1950, sauf de rares exemples, ne sont pas encore passés dans notre conscience patrimoniale. Ceux de Richer ne font pas exception; ils ont été parfois altérés. L’intérêt de ce livre est double, en ce que non seulement il permet de reconstituer la carrière de l’un de ses nombreux architectes invisibles qui ont tant contribué à notre architecture et à donner un visage propre à une région, mais aussi parce qu’il propose différentes voies d’interprétation de son travail dont le vocabulaire formel est en constante évolution. Un travail de terrain et d’archives, doublé d’attention et de passion, est à la base des interventions des différents chercheurs qui contribuent à cet ouvrage. Grâce à leurs efforts, le nom de Richer résonnera de nouveau dans le paysage architectural québécois.

Summary:
"The Empty Room", in the absence of any visual materials, was a written manifesto composed of RZLBD’s poems and collection of quotes intended to portray the room and the emptiness as the essence of architecture. Now, "100 Rooms" complements our own blurry images of the empty room with a visual guide. Each spread consists of a plan and a physical model of a room, which is an excavation of the geometry and order inherent within the square. It holds no design intention — no scale or function — but simply one of infinite possibilities that emerge from a square. This framework suggests that the formal expression of a room comes from within. With these visual references, one can begin to imagine many approximations to the empty room. A line on paper is always less, as Kahn says, but through these measurable means, the immeasurable idea of the empty room will be formed in one’s mind.

Summary:
Patkau Architects is known for creating innovative, sculptural buildings that convey artistic expression through the purposeful use of materials. "Patkau Architects: material operations" reveals the architectural philosophy and techniques that drive the firm's extraordinary constructions. Working directly with materials'bending them, breaking them, feeling their texture, mass, and strength provides a depth of understanding that visual observation alone cannot. The firm's creations demonstrate how attending to and playing with specific materials yields a refreshed and expanded perspective on the possible. "Patkau Architects: material operations" investigates how the qualities of commonly available construction materials and unconventional techniques produce buildable, expressive forms with inherent structural capacities and evocative identities.

Summary:
MacKay-Lyons Sweetapple Architects, based in Halifax, Nova Scotia, have an international reputation. Producing a wide range of projects both in Canada and further afield, they work in a sophisticated modern vernacular idiom, drawing inspiration from a rich local heritage of building types and reinterpreting them according to the best practices of 21st-century architecture. It is above all for their dignified and beautiful houses perched on the wild, rocky coasts of Nova Scotia that the firm is recognized. Overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, this remarkable body of work is based around a number of plan types that answer to the particular local climate: open to the sun but sheltered from the winds, and built using traditional materials that are allowed to weather, these dwellings embody the architects’ engagement with their unique surroundings and material culture. This new monograph covers MacKay-Lyons Sweetapple Architects’ complete work. Introductions by renowned architectural writers set the scene, while individual projects are illustrated through evocative photographs and detailed plans and drawings. What emerges is a celebration of an architecture that is both practical and deeply poetic.

Summary:
Norway-based Canadian architect Todd Saunders has a unique understanding of the arctic landscape. His designs, set in some of the most remote locations on earth, splice modern sculptural forms with a deeply rooted respect for nature. His care for the natural landscape can be seen in his work, such as the Fogo Island Inn and the artists studios in Newfoundland. Rather than imposing themselves upon the countryside and coast, Saunders’s buildings seek a sensitive accommodation within the topography, among the icy flora, fauna, and treescapes of the landscapes they inhabit. This volume focuses on Saunders’s residential designs and includes eleven of his most recent projects across Scandinavia and Canada, photographed amid their dramatic landscapes. Sections on process and ways of working, as well as Saunders’s inspirations and design philosophy are interwoven in separate sections, which include drawings, plans, and photography.
