A l'âge de vingt-quatre ans, Le Corbusier entreprend son mythique "voyage d'Orient". Parti de Berlin, il traverse les Balkans, la Turquie, la Grèce et l'Italie avant de terminer son parcours à La Chaux-de-Fonds. Son itinérance le conduit vers les sites et les monuments les plus célèbres et lui permet de découvrir les traditions et folklores des régions traversées. Au cours du voyage, il réalise plus de trois cents dessins, remplit six carnets de croquis, prend plus de quatre cents photographies et écrit des centaines de lettres à ses parents et à ses amis. Il en rédige le récit qui ne sera finalement publié qu'en 1966, sous le titre Le voyage d'Orient.

Résumé:
The debut portfolio by Onishimaki+Hyakudayuki Architects, a young Japanese duo based in Tokyo, focuses on their concept of “telling architecture like a story”. At the forefront of a new generation of architects in Japan, their projects are known for narrative characteristics and are integrated into the environment. Although only a handful have been realised, their positive attitude towards architecture views reality in a rather candid fashion, accepting and inheriting the history of a place. Along with a foreword by Toyo Ito and critical texts by Taro Igarashi and Yoshikazu Nango, this beautifully presented book highlights significant works, such as the Double Helix House.

Résumé:
Isolated from the architectural climate of his day and at odds with the principles of the Vienna Secession, Austrian-born Adolf Loos, with his "Neo-Rationalist" constructions and the reform of architectural language, which opposed the ornament in favor of pure utility, laid the very foundations for the Modern Movement. And yet for Loos the architect's trade was none other than a revival of the skills of both the craftsman and the mason, supported by a profound sensitivity for chromatic and spatial aspects, in the belief that the rooms in a house "stimulated states of mind in the person who inhabited them".
