Résumé:
"Cet ouvrage s'adresse à tous ceux que passionnent les secrets techniques de l'espace théâtral, ces machineries du rêve qui travaillent obscurément dans ses entrailles et embarquent le spectateur vers de nouvelles contrées ; tous ceux pour qui l'envers du décor, situé aux frontières du réel et de l'imaginaire, représente une source inépuisable de fascination. Avant l'ouverture du spectacle "officiel" se déroulent ainsi pour les initiés les mouvements d'une silencieuse chorégraphie, un spectacle de l'ombre où la technologie s'est mise au service d'une sorte de poésie parallèle, que rythment les majestueuses métamorphoses de la scène et de la salle. Une fois franchi le léger obstacle du vocabulaire technique propre à l'univers théâtral, avec l'aide du lexique, le lecteur trouvera ici de quoi alimenter ses réflexions sur l'art éternel du théâtre, dont le présent ouvrage aborde un aspect souvent méconnu."

Résumé:
Featuring a number of essays published for the first time, this collection of writings by the inspirational structural engineer Ove Arup provides valuable insight into one of the greatest minds in the field. The founder of the eponymous engineering firm, which continues to realize seminal projects around the world, Ove Arup is widely acknowledged as one of the most significant engineers of his time. Generated over the course of his career, these lectures, essays, and interviews broadly share several themes: insight into Arup’s thinking on the nature of good design, quality and value in the built environment, and the growing need for better collaboration between engineers, architects, and contractors in order to exploit technological advances in materials and methods, while at the same time reducing the environmental impact of building. These chronologically arranged essays span five decades, and many of the themes they address are as relevant today as they were when first produced.

Résumé:
As we stand on the cusp of a fundamental restructuring of the housing and building industries, this book provides timely insights into the promise of prefabricated housing. The idea of a more industrialised approach to house building is not a new one: since the 19th century, designers, inventors, engineers, builders, developers, and entrepreneurs have all been fascinated by the idea of the factory-built, modular home. But international housing affordability crises, emerging technologies, and concerns for more sustainable building practices have given a new urgency to the need to transform building construction in the 21st century.

Résumé:
Catalogue of the ''Technoscape'' exhibition, which was held at MAXXI in Autumn 2022, focused on the relationship between artistic and scientific disciplines, nowadays closer than ever, and the consequent contacts between technique, creativity, and social awareness. Architecture, engineering, and science have overlapped on numerous occasions during the 20th century. First in the heroic phase and then in the mature phase of the reinforced concrete, then with the affirmation of hi-tech construction methods in the 1970s and 1980s and finally with the eruption of digitally controlled technologies. The volume follows the dual register of the exhibition, first dealing with how technology is making architecture, urban planning, and other related disciplines more aware of their technical and scientific responsibility and capable of opening up new lines of research. The focus shifts then to structural engineering, comparing current masterpieces with previous historical modernist examples.
