Invisible strings bind two countries as di- verse and as far away as Italy and Japan. Those strings are made of creativity, innovation, respect and sometimes criticism of history and tradition.

Résumé:
Invisible strings bind two countries as di- verse and as far away as Italy and Japan. Those strings are made of creativity, innovation, respect and sometimes criticism of history and tradition. One of these invisible strings is represented by architecture. Both countries have been able to be at the center of great revolutions and at the same time decided to ignore this capacity to create and innovate. 150 years have passed since the two countries started their relationships and just more than 50 since they were among the leaders of what has been the last global avant-garde movement in architecture with the Japanese Metabolists and the Italian Radicals. 50 years ago the two countries were in full demographic, economic and cultural expansion, and those avant-gardes well-represented the vibrant seeds of their architectural proposals. In a curious parallel, 50 years after Italy and Japan live similar cultural and economic conditions and a new generation of architects deals with the timeless themes of living and design.

Résumé:
"57 Pavilions" is a 21st century manual documenting architectural design research at PennDesign examining new potentials for part to whole assemblies where experiments in material expression, morphology, performance and culture fuse with advanced digital design processes and fabrication to produce full-scale architectural consequences. Through the presentation of 54 half-scale pavilion projects and three full-scale pavilions a novel approach is laid out for generating higher ordered physical assemblies. The formations produce a new role of parts, material processes, and aggregations yielding a more autonomous character as discrete objects in a larger assembly. As the pavilion research moves into the world in full-scale installations, these new part to whole relationships provoke unexpected engagement with occupants, the environment, and the larger cultural context.

Résumé:
Un véritable rejet du mouvement moderne a émergé en France durant la décennie 1960. Des architectes et des artistes mènent alors des recherches sur le voile de béton, qui offre une immense liberté d’expression et une souplesse tant formelle que technique. Influencés par Antoni Gaudí ou Frederick Kiesler, inspirés par la nature, ils se tournent vers la création de volumes ovoïdes. Dans une société passionnée par la science-fiction et les soucoupes volantes, ils composent des univers entre représentation primitive et projection futuriste. Leur choix pour les structures en forme de bulles sera à la fois économique, esthétique et pratique : coquille protectrice, elle doit s’accorder parfaitement aux gestes quotidiens.

Résumé:
For millennia, architects and builders have attempted to rationalize cities into well-functioning and liveable places. While many aspects of a city evolve naturally, other facets result from human interventions and radical imagination. "Future city" celebrates the visionary urban schemes that have preoccupied architects trying to create a better world from the 1950s to the present. This publication assembles several generations of utopian architecture in a single volume. With the city serving as the context and catalyst for the works, the book provides resource for contemporary architectural and urban development and innovation in the third millennium. It features hundreds of seminal works by some sixty architects, ranging from the groundbreaking experiments of Rem Koolhaas, Zaha Hadid, Peter Cook, Daniel Libeskind and Coop Himmelb(l)au, alongside a new generation of rising stars, including Asymptote, NOX, UN Studio and Greg Lynn.

Résumé:
Poursuivant sa réflexion autour des lieux dédiés aux divertissements – après l’exposition Landskating, les lieux du skate à travers le monde, présentée l’année dernière –, la villa Noailles consacre, en 2017, son exposition annuelle d’architecture aux discothèques. Par une sélection de projets des années 1960 à nos jours, l’exposition propose de saisir les outils architecturaux mis en jeu dans la conception de ces lieux d’émancipation. La discothèque est un territoire d’expérimentation pour les architectes : par des dispositifs technologiques et formels, ils y élaborent un monde artificiel, à l’ambiance maîtrisée, isolé de l’extérieur. Aux côtés de l’analyse d’un ensemble de projets français et étrangers, une commande est passée à l’architecte Nicolas Dorval-Bory pour la création d’une discothèque au sein de la villa Noailles elle-même. Ouverte le temps de l’exposition, cette “boite de nuit” éphémère met à jour et propose d’éprouver in vivo le propos de l’exposition. L’exposition rassemble des documents rares et parfois inédits, (plans, maquettes, photographies, sculptures, oeuvres graphiques, films) ainsi que des séries photographiques et des recherches de contributeurs invités.

Résumé:
"Capsules" investigates the architectural, product design, and urban typology of the capsule which, beginning in the 1960s, broadened the concept of the basic building blocks of architecture to include a minimal living unit, called the "capsule." Here it is presented with regard to the continuity of the development of the Modern Movement, its revisionist criticism, pioneering examples, as well as contemporary examples and uses. The typology of the capsule allows us to consider this theme in terms of the architecture of resistance, with the potential to search for an "other" architecture that is embedded in our contemporaneity.
