Résumé:
The book shows 36 building projects of the near future after a thoroughly introduction by the author on the three scale-modules of the dwelling, the housing ensembles, and the city, suggesting that the city is to be perceived, conceived, and lived in terms of the relationship between the home and the public realm. Hence not only public spaces but also housing ensembles become essential elements in defining the morphology of the city.

Résumé:
This book investigates the development of multi-unit housing typologies that were predominant in a particular city from the 1800s to present day. It emphasises the importance of understanding the direct connection between housing and dwelling in the context of a city, and the manner in which the city is an instructional indication of how a housing typology is embodied.

Swiss architecture has come to be associated with iconic buildings and celebrated architects and firms like Peter Zumthor, Marion Botta, and Herzog & de Meuron. Yet there is a wide variety of other projects that contribute to a distinctly Swiss architecture, including private homes and housing developments.

Résumé:
Tandis que les expériences collectives fleurissent en France et dans le reste de l'Europe, l'habitat partagé suscite aujourd'hui un intérêt grandissant. Historique, exemplaire, l'aventure de "Kraftwerk" à Zurich s'avère, pour tous ceux qu'attirent d'autres manières de construire et d'habiter, une source de réflexion et d'inspiration. L'histoire commence en 1983 avec la parution du manifeste Bolo'bolo, qui milite pour un habitat autogéré d'un genre nouveau. Son utopiste et mystérieux auteur, P. M. (Hans Widmer), rallié par deux activistes, prend bientôt le pari de donner corps à cet idéal. Un second manifeste, dix ans et quelques concessions plus tard, commence l'une des expériences sociales et architecturales les plus passionnantes des dernières décennies. Finalement érigé en 2001, le premier bâtiment, Kraftwerk 1, réunit mixité sociale, loyers modérés, achats groupés, mutualisation des biens, fonds solidaire et dispositifs environnementaux : c'est un succès.

Résumé:
In this landmark reappraisal of council housing, historian John Boughton presents an alternative history of Britain. Rooted in the ambition to end slum living, and the ideals of those who would build a new society, "Municipal Dreams" looks at how the state’s duty to house its people decently became central to our politics. The book makes it clear why that legacy and its promise should be defended. Traversing the nation in this comprehensive social, political and architectural history of council housing, Boughton offers a tour of some of the best and most remarkable of our housing estates—some happily ordinary, some judged notorious. He asks us to understand their complex story and to rethink our prejudices.

Résumé:
Qu'ils habitent Genève, Nagoya, New York ou Montréal, mais aussi Montreuil, Paris, Moult, Nantes, Mulhouse ou Rambouillet, qu'ils soient jeunes, quinquagénaires ou plus âgés, militants, réunis en fratries, parents ou grands-parents avec enfants adultes... tous ont en commun de vivre ensemble et séparément. La cohabitation se diffuse aujourd'hui et ne se résume pas seulement à la colocation étudiante. Mais vivre avec un tiers, sans lien amoureux, est inhabituel et implique de trouver un modus vivendi, la "bonne distance", la "familiarité sans intrusion". Des propositions spatiales spécifiques, qui réinterrogent aussi la manière de concevoir le logement contemporain, doivent être mises en place. A côté de l'aménagement bricolé dans un logement existant, des lieux pensés pour organiser la cohabitation sont apparus ces dernières années.

Résumé:
Across the world, the housing crisis is escalating. Mass migration to cities has led to rapid urbanisation on an unprecedented scale, while the withdrawal of public funding from social housing provision in Western countries, and widening income inequality, have further compounded the situation. In response to this context, forward-thinking architects are taking the lead with a collaborative approach. By partnering with allied fields, working with residents, developing new forms of housing, and leveraging new funding systems and policies, they are providing strategic leadership for what many consider to be our cities’ most pressing crisis. Amidst growing economic and health disparities, this issue of AD asks how housing projects, and the design processes behind them, might be interventions towards greater social equity, and how collaborative work in housing might reposition the architectural profession at large.
