Résumé:
Ce livre réunit pour la première fois huit entretiens majeurs donnés par Roland Simounet de 1978 à 1995. Ces entretiens ont un statut bien particulier parmi les nombreux écrits de l’architecte : l’écriture y est d’une grande richesse et la personnalité de Simounet s’y révèle davantage grâce à l’exercice du dialogue. L’intérêt de ce recueil est de faire apparaître une réelle constance dans la pensée de l’architecte, mais aussi, en parallèle, l’évolution des préoccupations d’une époque – ce que met en évidence la présentation chronologique des textes : le processus de conception, la question de la ville, celle du paysage. Chaque entretien, considéré isolément, comme l’ensemble des textes mis bout à bout construisent une autre rationalité, celle d’une architecture du dialogue.

Résumé:
Premier ouvrage consacré au travail de l'architecte bisontin, présentant ses constructions singulières dans leur contexte. Une cabane de pêcheurs, l'aménagement d'une halle de marché rural dans le cadre de la procédure des "Nouveaux commanditaires", une école, le hangar d'une ferme comtoise, une maison individuelle, des édifices mettant en œuvre les énergies renouvelables, dévoilent le processus d'une architecture radicale et conceptuelle attentive au lieu, au matériau, à la demande, au paysage, dépassant l'opposition entre local et universel. / This pubication is dedicated to the work of Adelfo Scaranello, an architect from Besançon, France, whose singular constructions are presented in their context : a fishing cabin, a covered farmer’s market, both included among the new commissions of the Fondation de France. Also included are a school, a barn, a residence, and examples of buildings employing natural energy sources. Each project reveals Scaranello’s conceptual process which is intrinsically related to site, materials, prerequisites, and landscape and which surpasses any notion of local versus international architecture.

Résumé:
Arpentant les rues et les places son carnet à la main, parcourant la planète pour donner des conférences ou suivre ses chantiers, Le Corbusier a façonné son œuvre en réaction constante au monde environnant. À travers de nombreux documents intimes et rarement montrés dans leur continuité, Jean-Louis Cohen, spécialiste de ce personnage mi-secret, mi-tonitruant, voyage sur les traces du premier " expert volant " de l'architecture. Croquis de voyage, photographies de sa collection, lettres à ses amis, ouvrages personnels annotés et maquettes de projet nous livrent avec une intensité particulière un être d'émotion et de passion avec ses coups de génie, coups de tête, hésitations et contradictions. En écho à l'histoire et à la culture du XXe siècle, écrivains, artistes de tous les milieux et femmes de lettre sont aussi ici présents, témoignant pour la première fois de la sociabilité très intense de Le Corbusier.
