Résumé:
John Turner's classic essay now in its fourht edition makes a unique contribution to housing theory and practice. His three Laws of Housing summarize the psychological, social and economic basis of his thesis: 1. When people have no control over, nor responsibility for, key decisions in the housing process, dwelling environments may become a barrier to personal fulfilment and a burden on the economy. 2. The important thing about housing is not what it is, but what it does in people's lives. 3. Deficiencies and imperfections in your housing are infinitely more tolerable if they are your responsibility than if they are somebody else's.

Résumé:
Construire un trois-pièces pour moins d’un million d’anciens francs (environ 23 000 €). Tel est l’objectif de l’opération Million lancée en France en 1954 par le gouvernement ; la crise du logement est alors à son apogée. L’agence de Georges Candilis, Alexis Josic et Shadrach Woods remporte le concours organisé l’année suivante et construira près de 4 300 logements sur vingt-huit sites. Tour à tour enquête et plaidoyer, l’ouvrage de Korinna Zinovia Weber relate cet épisode majeur et méconnu de la construction des années d’après-guerre et milite pour que les grands ensembles soient reconnus en tant que patrimoine architectural. Que reste-t-il de l’opération Million soixante-dix ans après sa mise en oeuvre ? Partant du terrain, l’autrice dresse un état des lieux, fait le relevé des bâtiments, ausculte leur matérialité, retrace leurs transformations successives : rénovations plus ou moins lourdes, démolitions partielles ou totales. Elle revient sur la genèse de l’opération et souligne la pertinence des choix architecturaux d’origine : organisation des bâtiments, typologie des logements, innovations constructives. Sensible et engagée, Korinna Zinovia Weber nous conduit au cœur de l’opération Million à la rencontre de toutes ses parties prenantes, sans oublier les habitants mobilisés pour sauvegarder leurs lieux de vie face aux intérêts financiers et politiques. Dénuée de tout fétichisme pour l’architecture moderne, l’autrice construit une connaissance utile et opératoire sur les grands ensembles, et nous invite à réapprendre à les transformer et à les habiter dans le contexte de ce premier quart du XXIe siècle confronté à une double crise, du logement et du climat.

Résumé:
Christine Hunter looks at how legal, cultural, and technological standards have developed, and examines current criteria for a "minimum standard" family home, in three possible forms: freestanding house, attached house, and apartment. She discusses interior spaces, connections to the immediate outdoors, mechanical and plumbing connections, and connections to society. She emphasizes the varied and often conflicting environmental concerns, and examines how homes are grouped and combined with other building types and open spaces into neighborhoods.

Résumé:
This wide-ranging book examines the world’s most significant large-scale housing complexes, which point the way for the future of housing design. The seventy residential complexes featured here are recognized as architectural milestones, embodying forward-thinking attitudes towards urban planning. This book chronicles the evolution of these structures, revealing how each best represented its era’s goals: housing a new society in the 1920s and 30s; the 40s and 50s’ leap toward functionality and the future; the high-density urban projects of the 60s and 70s; and diversity and environmental awareness in the 80s and 90s. It also looks at this century’s most progressive developments: Beijing’s Looped Hybrid, a city within a city; India’s Aranya township, which provides housing for impoverished residents; and the environmentally friendly Solaire Apartments in Manhattan, among others. As today’s cities face myriad global challenges, this book provides ample food for thought for anyone concerned with socially responsible architecture.

From the almshouses of seventeenth-century Puritans to the massive housing projects of the mid-twentieth century, the struggle over housing assistance in the United States has exposed a deep-seated ambivalence about the place of the urban poor. Lawrence J. Vale's groundbreaking book is both a comprehensive institutional history of public housing in Boston and a broader examination of the nature and extent of public obligation to house socially and economically marginal Americans during the past 350 years.

Résumé:
This book presents a wide selection of interviews and photographs from the collaborations between Willats and residents in the many housing estate projects he makes. The first-hand observations and individual opinions, from the past four decades, record a variety of attitudes and perceptions towards the physical reality of their surroundings. Created outside of the norms and conventions of an object-based art world, the projects in this book, mainly on estates in and around London, but also in Bath, Leeds, Milton Keynes and Oxford, highlight the realities of everyday life in both tower blocks and low-rise planned housing.
