Résumé:
Architecture and urbanism were traditionally based on climate and health, as we can read in the treatises of Vitruvius, Palladio or Alberti, where exposure to wind and sun, variations in temperature and humidity influenced the forms of cities and buildings. These fundamental causes of urban planning and buildings were ignored in the second half of the 20th century thanks(...)

Résumé:
Architecture and urbanism were traditionally based on climate and health, as we can read in the treatises of Vitruvius, Palladio or Alberti, where exposure to wind and sun, variations in temperature and humidity influenced the forms of cities and buildings. These fundamental causes of urban planning and buildings were ignored in the second half of the 20th century thanks to the enormous use of fossil energy by heating and air conditioning systems, pumps and refrigerators, that today cause the greenhouse effect and global warming. The fight against climate change forces architects and urban designers to take seriously the climatic issue in order to base their design on its the local climatic context and energy resources. Faced with the climatic challenge of the 21st century, we propose to reset our discipline on its intrinsic atmospheric qualities, where air, light, heat or humidity are recognized are real materials of building, convection, thermal conduction, evaporation, emissivity, or effusivity are becoming design tools for composing architecture and cities, and through materialism dialectic, are able to revolutionize esthetic and social values.

Résumé:
''Tracé bleu'' is a forward-looking approach that questions the ecological and social challenges facing our inhabited environments. Architecturestudio draws on its international experiences as an architect and urban designer to cross its approach with those of various multidisciplinary thinkers and experts. Starting from the given at a geoscale, how to anticipate the common good ? How to create incentive projects for more virtuous and ecological behaviours ? How an urban or architectural project becomes part of daily life ? These are the questions that Architecturestudio addresses, using cross-experiences to examine the future of our practice.

Résumé:
Sculptor Mark Manders installed an exhibition in the Woning Van Wassenhove, a post-Brutalist house designed by Juliaan Lampens in 1974. Although Manders hardly touched some spaces, he treats the bed, office, and kitchen as stages for aggregation in line with the original occupant’s mindset: drawings, architectural proposals, photographs, artworks, paint pots, and seemingly wet clay are piled on top of one another. In Manders’s words: "The aim is to show the house in a perfect situation. While some spaces derail when you zoom in on them, there is a kaleidoscopic element to it, as if you are looking inside a head."

Résumé:
Based in Mexico City, the architectural studio PRODUCTORA was founded by Abel Perles, Carlos Bedoya, Victor Jaime, and Wonne Ickx. In creating buildings that function, delight, stimulate, and are likely to withstand tectonic fads as well as telluric shifts, the studio never compromises the restless intellectual curiosity at its heart. Both a compendium and a promise of this singularity, this book surveys the groundwork PRODUCTORA has set down over a decade of activity, presaging what is possible as these foundations continue to be built upon. Their work is distinguished by an interest in precise geometries and the search for timeless material and spatial resolutions.

Résumé:
À la fois enquête, biographie et inventaire architectural, « L’Architecte fantôme » retrace la vie et l’œuvre d’Octave Van Rysselberghe, un des créateurs les plus insaisissables et les plus secrets de la période Art nouveau. Peu soucieux d’une réputation post-mortem, ce pionnier de l’architecture n’a laissé aucune archive, aucun écrit, sous le prétexte que seuls les bâtiments comptaient. Françoise Levie a réalisé une extraordinaire enquête, traquant chaque indice, chaque détail, allant de découverte en déconvenue, pour finir par dépister des plans dans un container enneigé. Chacun de ces projets renferme une histoire fascinante où se côtoient l’astronome François Folie, le franc-maçon Eugène Goblet d’Alviella, le tribun socialiste Émile Vandervelde, l’utopiste Paul Otlet, le designer Henry Van de Velde, l’architecte Victor Horta, la féministe Florence de Brouckère, l’écrivain André Gide, le poète Émile Verhaeren, le géographe anarchiste Élisée Reclus, l’industriel Georges Nagelmackers, les peintres Paul Signac et Henri-Edmond Cross, le mécène Raoul Warocqué, et surtout son frère, le peintre Théo Van Rysselberghe.
