Résumé:
Si notre monde ressemble à ce qu’il est, si les choses se maintiennent les unes aux autres sans tomber, c’est grâce à des principes simples et universels. Qu’il s’agisse d’une cathédrale plusieurs fois centenaire, de votre habitation, d’un avion, d’un bateau, d’un kangourou, d’une coquille d’œuf ou de vos propres articulations, tout n’est au fond qu’histoire de(...)

Résumé:
Si notre monde ressemble à ce qu’il est, si les choses se maintiennent les unes aux autres sans tomber, c’est grâce à des principes simples et universels. Qu’il s’agisse d’une cathédrale plusieurs fois centenaire, de votre habitation, d’un avion, d’un bateau, d’un kangourou, d’une coquille d’œuf ou de vos propres articulations, tout n’est au fond qu’histoire de structures. Comprendre comment elles fonctionnent, c’est comprendre l’organisation du monde, rien de moins (et construire ensuite ce que bon vous semble, comme des fusées, par exemple). Affaire de spécialistes que tout cela? Absolument pas! J.E. Gordon le démontre dans ce livre plein d’esprit, sans simplification ni jargon excessifs: comprendre une structure est un jeu d’enfant pour qui sait observer. Il est même probable qu’après avoir lu des chapitres comme «l’avantage d’être une poutre» ou «comment concevoir une vis», vous serez très tentés de vous lancer dans la construction de votre propre plancher, d’une catapulte ou d’un pont suspendu.

Résumé:
Robust architecture is designed to meet needs; its structures are sufficient, resilient and suited to the location. It embraces the potential of simplicity, traditional building methods and alternative ways of building sustainable architecture, with an emphasis on local building materials, solid craftsmanship, proven construction methods and user participation. Its design strategies, combined with state-of-the-art planning tools and research findings, look ahead to a climate-positive future. The book gives detailed information on the concepts behind Robust Architecture and Low-Tech Design. It illuminates various strategies and demonstrates how they can be easily implemented. Examples of realised projects with very different demands and requirement profiles show how straightforward robust building can be.

Résumé:
"Infrastructure" is a unique guide, exploring all the major "ecosystems" of our modern industrial world, revealing what the structures are and why they're there, and uncovering beauty in unexpected places. It covers an industrial landscape comprised of agriculture, resources, energy, communication, transportation, manufacturing, and waste. The objects that fill our everyday environment are streetlights, railroad tracks, antenna towers, highway overpasses, power lines, satellite dishes, and thousands of other manufactured items, many of them so familiar we hardly notice them. Larger and more exotic facilities have transformed vast tracts of the landscape : coal mines, nuclear power plants, grain elevators, oil refineries, and steel mills, to name a few. "Infrastructure" is a compelling and clear guide for those who want to explore and understand this mysterious world we've made for ourselves.

Transport buildings - railway stations, airport terminals, bus and coach stations, motorway service areas, filling stations, and garages - are such a part of everyday scenery they are easily overlooked. This book is the first to take a close look at the architecture of British transport buildings of the twentieth century, a period during which transportation systems, methods, and even purposes underwent enormous change. The contributors to the book consider both well known and unfamiliar transport buildings from a variety of intriguing viewpoints. They explore the design and promotion of the London Underground, the battle between road and rail, the intentions of architects - to glamorize travel, to calm fears, to accommodate huge numbers of travellers - and the political and cultural significance of the transport buildings that have become a major part of modern life.
