Résumé:
During the pandemic, 45 people were invited to take part in a "serious game": each participant selected the image of a personal object of fascination, out of which a shape was extracted, redrawn, scaled and sent to a CNC machine to be cut out of a 5 mm thick aluminium sheet and become a low table. Each table is here presented through the original image that generated it, the selected contour, a text by its author and photographs of the prototype taken by Maxime Delvaux and printed in silver. 'Objects of Fascination' explores digital technology and craftsmanship through found forms. It can be seen as a collection of personal worldviews by an emerging generation of architects, as much as an attempt to give a physical form to the multiplicity of our collective cultural background.

Résumé:
Cet ouvrage, présentant des descriptions aussi savoureuses qu’érudites de différents meubles urbains, séduira l’esprit méthodique des chercheurs professionnels et des amateurs éclairés comme la curiosité vagabonde des promeneurs urbains ; ceci tant par le soin méticuleux présidant à l’établissement de la véracité scientifique que par la mobilisation des différents sous-champs historiques qui charpentent chacune de ses lignes. Seuls pourraient être troublés les professionnels des plantes à fibres car ils ne trouveront ici nul chloroplaste ni étamine. Et pourtant la description envoûtante de l’hybride mupi (genre Monitor, chapitre 10) ou celle de la variété tropicale de l’Hydra terminalis umida (genre Hydra, chapitre 3) saura les séduire par un sentiment de familiarité a priori peu évident.
