Résumé:
Shanghai, c’est la ville mythique par excellence. Capable de se renouveler cycliquement, de se rebâtir continuellement, on pourrait la croire dans un présent absolu, comme absente à son histoire, récente ou non, comme sans mémoire. Mais ce qui était vrai au début des années 2000 ne l’est peut-être plus aujourd’hui. Ville à l’avant-garde, ville laboratoire, elle a connu(...)

Résumé:
The projects by ten Korean architects highlighted in this exhibition catalogue satisfied briefs that mostly called for modest and human buildings, in opposition to the large housing sectors currently being built in Seoul and many other Asian cities. Particular attentiveness to the surroundings is seen in a number of the projects, especially when inserted into a mixed urban context of old and new. The high quality of traditional workmanship is readily apparent, along with close attention to detail and specific cultural qualities. In addition to an essay by Inha Jung on correlative architecture and new urban realities, the book includes detailed project data, images and drawings.

Hong Kong is a city without ground. This is true both physically (built on steep slopes, the city has no ground plane) and culturally (there is no concept of ground). Density obliterates figure-ground in the city, and in turn re-defines public-private spatial relationships.
