Résumé:
Au XIXe siècle, le bambou est inconnu en Europe. Eugène Mazel, qui fait commerce des épices, s'installe en 1856, il y a 150 ans, à Générargues, au pied des Cévennes, à quelques kilomètres d'Anduze. Dans le vallon encaissé dont il vient de faire l'acquisition, il introduit les premiers plans de bambous. A l'automne 1902, Gaston Nègre rachète le domaine. Il restaure,(...)

Résumé:
Dump or rich source – the "free materials" discovered on the street, on wasteland and on building site rubbish dumps and recycled by Martin Kaltwasser and Folke Köbberling experience incredible metamorphoses. Pavilions, villages of huts and even whole houses are appearing over night. Since 2002 the artists have been using public space as their field of experiment in projects on the use of (free) resources. In installations, exhibitions and most frequently, in actual interventions they question the conditions of urban life determined by privatisation and economisation. Through realised projects the book reveals simple ways of livening up and re-appropriating the " City as a Resource" and thus offers new components in an alternative to conventional urban planning. Köbberling and Kaltwasser propose informal and self-organised structures rather than the usual methods emphasising control, security and as much marketing as possible. Their approach demonstrates that often – with the help of their own clever building logistics – a huge impact may be made with a minimum of financing.

Résumé:
More than 90 per cent of the world's buildings, including some 800 million homes, constitute architecture of ordinary people. "Dwellings" is about the vast range of types of vernacular houses around the world. It documents the form of traditional buildings that are self-built by their owner-occupiers or built by members of a community, recording the means of construction and decoration of the house across a spectrum of different cultures. First published by Phaidon in 1987, Dwellings - in its new updated, revised and expanded format - assimilates new scholarship in the field, including the author's own research, and traces theoretical developments in the spheres of cultural geography, gender studies, sociology and anthropology. It is not only a reference work on domestic buildings, but also a useful survey for understanding how diverse communities cope with issues of climate, migration, mass development and, in turn, how this brings to life symbolic and cultural meaning in architecture.

Résumé:
Off the Grid confronts the ecological and cultural problems associated with the way we get and use energy, and explains how it is possible to live in a beautifully designed home using much less--no matter where your home is located. Our homes are connected by a nearly invisible grid of infrastructure that binds us together. It is a system of electrical poles, wire, substations, hydroelectric dams, telecommunication towers, and water extraction and sewage systems. From within this system we work, play, and raise families. We have also created one of the greatest environmental challenges known to modern civilization. The signs of our impact upon the world can be recognized in the reports of environmental changes occurring across the earth, and they can also be seen in the growing failures of the energy grids across the world as the current system is stressed beyond its capacity.

Résumé:
Face aux défis environnementaux, économiques et sociétaux, utiliser des matériaux de construction disponibles à portée de main ou juste sous nos pieds offre des solutions techniques vertueuses, inspirées de savoir-faire ancestraux. Cela redonne aussi du sens aux métiers du bâtiment, encourage le développement de filières économiques locales, crée des emplois et ancre à nouveau l’acte de bâtir dans son territoire. MATERIA associe la pierre à la terre et aux fibres végétales, en mettant l’accent sur la réhabilitation du bâti existant. L’ouvrage analyse et documente les 40 projets finalistes du materia award à travers leurs dimensions architecturales, techniques et environnementales. La réduction de l’impact carbone des matériaux, embryonnaire il y a une décennie, est désormais intégrée dans les règlementations. Les filières se structurent, mais surtout, la conscience collective a évolué, notamment chez les étudiants et les nouvelles générations de bâtisseurs. Aspirant à un avenir différent, ils explorent de nouvelles manières de concevoir l’architecture et de la mettre en œuvre. Sensibles à la dimension sociale de l’acte de construire, ils expérimentent des matériaux peu transformés, avec le chantier comme point d’orgue.

Résumé:
How can we design the architecture of metabolism? How can architecture redefine resources, produce nutrients and contribute to regenerate land and protect communities at risk? "Building Metabolism" aims to reveal how architecture constructs, distributes, and leverages power via material recycling, interspecies alliances, biopolitics and excremental processes. This book, stemming from the expanded work produced for the 2022 Tallinn Architecture Biennale—themed EDIBLE and curated by the authors—reimagines the "home" on both domestic and planetary scales as a digestive system, processing human output in its various forms and converting it into actionable resources. This portrayal of the "home" urges readers to look at resources in a visceral way; via the raw ecologies of our bodies and the understanding that the social problems related to climate justice are not simply statistical, abstract, and disembodied. Instead, they are intertwined with our own production and living processes, and they are landed on bodies: on the food we eat, the water we drink, and the air we breathe.

Résumé:
Bringing together real-world examples, "Architecture and energy" offers starting points for how to approach construction today and into the future. The energy requirements of buildings are enormous, resulting in a significant proportion of global carbon dioxide emissions, both in the construction phase and during the building’s use and eventual demolition. In an era of energy transition and extreme weather phenomena, the question of how we build in a time of climate change becomes all the more urgent. A sustainably-built wood and concrete supermarket that includes a roof farm, a kindergarten constructed from locally sourced recycled materials, renovating an office building so that it can remove its air conditioning and ventilation systems: in addition to the choice of materials and innovative operating concepts, the possibilities for reducing emissions and energy requirements lie above all in thinking about the entire life cycle of a building, including refurbishing rather than new construction when possible. This volume presents international best-practice projects characterized by sustainable design and provides forward-looking answers.

These terms—such as Water Rights, Hydrocatharsis, Decommodification of Water and Liquid Modernity—form a vital lexicon to guide transformative action and foster a more symbiotic relationship with water. Structured as a collaborative exploration, the book combines scientific insight, philosophical depth and architectural vision to redefine how we engage with water socially, politically and ecologically. Illustrated with cartographic case studies, the volume offers vivid and hopeful scenarios for reshaping human–water interdependence. Through its diverse contributors and an interdisciplinary approach, "100 Words for Water" challenges readers to rethink water management and design as the foundation of a resilient, multispecies future.
