Résumé:
Seoul - one of the most densely populated urban areas on the planet. The tremendous pressure this megacity exacts on architecture in terms of spatial intensification, verticalization and amplification, challenges architectural stereotypes and promotes innovation. Megacity Network presents 32 projects by 16 representative Korean architects from the last ten years. Being more like mixtures and hybrids of conventional typologies, these projects range from traditional timber-structure houses to commercial and sports buildings, each one of them meeting the demands of Seoul´s electric urban landscape in its own way. Essays on the urban and architectural background complete the book, making it an exciting overview on the largely unknown new Korean architecture.

Among the works collected in this book, many are designs of excellent young and middle-aged architects, whose names perhaps the world has yet to be acquainted with. Here, we hope that this book could serve as an opportunity for people to come to understand their works and thoughts. And I also hope that they can create more and better works in the future.

Résumé:
"In China, we like to sit around a big round table for dinner. We place our dishes on a big spinning disk in the center of the table so that we can all reach the food. Everyone, whether or not he or she has anything to say, and every discussion, whether it is important or not, has an equal place around the table. We hope to have such a dinner and to invite to our table those who don't usually come together in real life to share their experiences, opinions, and observations. Their concerns are really also our concerns." Mad Dinner MAD is a Beijing-based studio that has won numerous international design competitions, including the Absolute Tower in Toronto. Divided thematically, the book looks at MADs designs to illustrate the freedoms and limitations of the worlds fastest growing urbanization. It explores idealism and free market realities, the role of the media and cultural icons, enacting change in Chinas political landscape, and projects for environmental protection. A journalistic approach with a series of interviews reconnects architecture to the daily cultural landscape: A taxi driver speaks on China's economy, a doctor describes his ideal architecture.

Résumé:
Now as before, Japanese architecture is very popular in Europe and the western world. This publication provides an overview of its many design concepts and cross-references. Using design examples and interviews, the book presents thirteen current positions.The publication focuses on young architects who take up extremely independent positions within Japanese architecture, as well as on Pritzker Prize winners Toyo Ito and Fumihiko Maki. Six essays by European specialists on Japan provide supplementary insights into the aesthetics and space concepts of Japanese architecture, making cross-references to Japan’s architectural history, and explaining current lines of development. The book thus combines a self-reflective approach with an outsider’s analytical view.

Résumé:
Les études réunies ici témoignent d'une commune passion pour la maison – traditionnelle ou très contemporaine –, la ville et l'espace japonais, visités par la plume des deux auteurs. Ils sont pour l'un géographe – Jacques Pezeu-Massabuau –, pour l'autre architecte et anthropologue – Philippe Bonnin. Chacun, de son côté, a poursuivi un travail obstiné d'observation, de description, de dévoilement, d'analyse approfondie de la réalité de cette habitation japonaise, de son esthétique, des gestes, des paroles qui l'entourent. Réunir ces textes devenait un impératif pour confronter leurs approches complémentaires et décoder cette culture japonaise si passionnante.

Résumé:
The success of any architectural project depends on the architect’s ability to depict it. Conveying architectural ideas as drawings, pictures, or models is both a critical part of the process and one that can tell us much about the design itself in a particular time or place. Over the past two decades, major new trends in architectural representation have emerged in Japan, which have gained widespread attention in the western world. "Pictures of the floating microcosm" considers these trends and takes readers through their development to the present day. Olivier Meystre undertakes a critique of the design tools and mediation techniques that have been employed and reveals the very special ways of conceiving an architectural project, drawing on a wealth of new research and interviews with contemporary Japanese architects.
