Résumé:
Rome, the"Eternal City", is a unique palimpsest dating back to Antiquity. However, beyond the historic center built over millennia on the famous seven hills - another Rome exists, one of large and often stunning modern neighborhoods, housing estates, schools, and public buildings. When Rome became Italy's capital in 1871, the population increased extensively and the city exceeded its boundaries since Roman times, the Aurelian Walls. This extraordinary transformation laid the foundation for many new quarters built to accommodate civil servants and rural migrants, drawing on vernacular and ancient Roman traditions and blending past and present. This book looks at Rome's evolution and architecture from the 19th century onwards.

''Rebuilding Is Not a Metaphor: Voices Reshaping the Built Environment Around the World'' brings together architects, planners, policymakers, activists, community organisers, and researchers to explore rebuilding as a concrete practice rather than a symbolic idea. Focusing on the built environment, the book presents responses to environmental disasters, post-industrial decline, and conflict across diverse geographical contexts. While deeply rooted in local conditions, the contributions reveal shared concerns and lessons that resonate globally. Through statements, visual essays, and feature articles, contributors examine rebuilding through material interventions, community engagement, knowledge production, and critical reflection.

This is a book that students of architecture will want to keep in the studio and in their backpacks. It is also a book they may want to keep out of view of their professors, for it expresses in clear and simple language things that tend to be murky and abstruse in the classroom. These 101 concise lessons in design, drawing, the creative process, and presentation--from the basics of "How to Draw a Line" to the complexities of color theory--provide a much-needed primer in architectural literacy, making concrete what too often is left nebulous or open-ended in the architecture curriculum.

Résumé:
Rassemblant plusieurs générations de concepteurs aux origines disciplinaires et géographiques très diverses, l’AUA a développé son activité pendant 25 ans dans une France saisie par la modernisation et en proie à une activité politique intense – de la guerre d’Algérie finissante au premier mandat de François Mitterrand. En quelque sorte banni des grands centres urbains, il a opéré dans les territoires de banlieue et dans les premières villes nouvelles, dans un jeu permanent entre les initiatives des collectivités locales et les programme de l’État. L’engagement, défini par une participation active à l’histoire, marque l’ensemble des actions de l’AUA, qui n’a jamais dissocié la réponse aux attentes des élus et des militants de ses objectifs architecturaux. Cette démarche traverse tous les domaines dans lesquels l’Atelier a déployé son action ; l’habitation et les équipements publics ; l’urbanisme des tissus de banlieue et un souci pionnier du paysage ; la confrontation avec les techniques d’industrialisation et les modèles innovants. L’AUA a par ailleurs été parmi les pionniers d’un nouvel exercice professionnel fondé sur la coopération, le dialogue et le partage, qui a fait figure d’exemple et dont l’esprit pionnier et fécond est lisible dans les projets conduits par une nouvelle génération d’architectes issus de l’enseignement d’après 1968. La diversité des écritures architecturales (Jacques Kalisz, Henri Ciriani, Paul Chemetov, etc.) s’accompagne d’une adhésion partagée à un ensemble de principes, comme la fidélité aux idées du mouvement moderne, une réflexion persistante sur le travail d’équipe avec le souci de la pluridisciplinarité et l’attachement à la dimension sociale de l’architecture.
