Résumé:
The geographic, social, and economic diversity of Mexico constitute a prime example of the challenges inherent to meeting individual needs in an increasingly crowded world. The drawings and essays comprise new ways of looking at theories and buildings in order to redefine the connection between housing and the city. This research is centered in drawings of 70 housing projects, creating a common language highlighting different attempts at reinventing the house not as an isolated battle but as part of a strategy for reimagining how we want to live. This book showcases the pivotal voices that have shaped major cities through housing projects and explores how policies and ideas transform into built form, and how in turn buildings shape societies.

Résumé:
Les années 2000 ont marqué un tournant particulier dans la production de logements collectifs en Suisse en s’orientant vers des recherches formelles et spatiales inédites. Ce phénomène de singularisation semble répondre aux profondes mutations du territoire induites par la densification sur l’intérieur, qui implique de construire dans des situations toujours plus complexes et a engendré de nouveaux «contextes» à habiter. Cet ouvrage propose de mettre en évidence l’évolution des tendances conceptuelles et modalités de relation à ces « contextes », à travers les réflexions de plusieurs contributeurs et la constitution d’une iconographie qui donne à voir ou à revoir l’architecture du logement après que la végétation a poussé et que les habitants se soient appropriés les lieux.

Résumé:
L'habitat participatif a pour objet concret le « mieux construire » et le « mieux vivre ». Cet ouvrage présente un large panel d'acteurs qui ont contribué à son essor en France, en le faisant passer du monde des pionniers à celui du logement pour tous. L'habitat participatif se développe d'autant plus rapidement qu'il répond à l'urgence de la transition climatique dans ses trois dimensions économique, environnementale et humaine. Grâce à une quarantaine d'entretiens (accompagnateurs de groupes, architectes, habitants...), l'ouvrage permet de faire connaissance avec la plupart de ces acteurs et repère les principaux pôles d'expertises existant sur le territoire métropolitain. Ce livre constitue à la fois un précieux carnet d'adresses et une cartographie précise des réseaux associatifs concernés. Il est une référence pour les familles et les personnes en recherche de futurs voisins, d'un quartier ou d'un site et d'un accompagnement technique avisé.

Résumé:
Affordable housing is an enduring political challenge. Cities have endeavored to set international standards for this important field of architecture since the 1920s. Planners must work within a socially motivated tradition to find exemplary solutions both at the political and architectural level. This building catalogue documents over 130 residential buildings dedicated to affordable housing. It presents floor plans, large photos, key data, and clear diagrams, providing a comprehensive overview of the solutions being tested today. The publication is rounded off with ten affordable housing concepts that were designed as part of the ''Housing for All'' competition, organized by the Frankfurt Department of Planning and Housing, the Deutsches Architekturmuseum, and ABG Frankfurt Holding. Renowned architecture practices based in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, the Netherlands, and France were invited to submit design concepts for building sites in the Hilgenfeld area of Frankfurt. These concepts will reignite the contemporary discourse on affordable housing – in Frankfurt and beyond.

Résumé:
Throughout the twentieth century, housing displays have proven to be a singular genre of architectural and design exhibitions. By crossing geographies and adopting multiple scales of observation – from domestic space to urban visions – this volume investigates a set of unexplored events devoted to housing and dwelling, organised by technical, professional, cultural or governmental institutions from the interwar years to the Cold War. The book offers a first critical assessment of twentieth-century housing exhibits and explores the role of exhibitions in the codification of notions of domesticity, social models, policies, and architectural and urban discourse. At the intersection of housing studies and the history of exhibitions, ''The Housing Project'' not only offers a novel angle on architectural history but also enriches scholarly perspectives in urban studies, cultural and media history, design, and consumption studies.

Résumé:
Building Subjects, the fourth issue of Standpunkte Magazine, is a collaboration between the architect De Peter Yi, the art historian Nancy P. Lin, and the graphic design studios Normal and Some All None. The publication revolves around collective housing in China, an architectural challenge expressive of the country's ongoing negotiations between its rich history and undetermined future. The study combines typological research with the modes of the architectural manifesto by establishing an exchange between cultural-historical observations, the consideration of contemporary socio-economic pressures, and evolving architectural aspirations. Through a close reading of spaces from monumental utopian communes in Beijing to round earthen dwellings in the Fujian province, Building Subjects stages collective housing as a key to residential architecture in China. The publication is simultaneously inward and outward looking, and this duality is also reflected in its meticulously composed layout: documentary photography and detailed axonometric drawings are juxtaposed to establish a correspondence between old and new, between reality and projection.
