Résumé:
Concrete has for many years been discovered as a versatile material suited to a wide range of applications from small scale artefacts and sculptures, domestic scale architecture through to multi-story buildings and landscapes, where the current generation of concretes offers greater potential than ever. This book was a series of lectures by designers and specialists which set out to celebrate inspirational and innovative uses of concrete. Concrete Elegance One documents some of the projects which form the backbone of these talks. The book highlights two particular projects expressing a renewed interest in concrete's plastic and aesthetic qualities that are present in architecture today, namely the Spiral Staircase in Copenhagen and the concrete arch of the Seonyu Bridge in Seoul, both of which demonstrate how ready mixed concrete and the right selection of formwork and placement techniques can produce award winning architecture at affordable prices.

Résumé:
This publication, the third in the Concrete Elegance Series, explores the various colours and surface consistencies of concrete. It discusses the quality and variety of colour emerging in concrete architecture using examples, such as the black concrete of the Utrecht Library, the grass-imprinted precast panels of the A16 Toll Booths in France, the pink glass reinforced concrete (GRC) panels of Villaverde in Madrid and the plain grey concrete in the Bacon Street House. The book shows that the interpretation and end results of using tried and tested concrete mixes and commonly used forming materials still offer almost limitless design freedom and scope for expression. The landscape, hardscape, parkland and playground projects and domestic artefacts reviewed in this edition help to broaden the readers understanding of concrete's potential and universal appeal.

Résumé:
Depuis vingt ans la demande en lumière évolue et l'éclairage cristallise des enjeux multiples, pas toujours conciliables : assurer la sécurité, répondre aux besoins des usagers, mettre en valeur le patrimoine, participer aux marketings publics et privés, améliorer le confort des espaces publics centraux et périphériques, accompagner les événements culturels et les festivités locales, identifier les villes et les quartiers, respecter les critères du développement durable, préserver le ciel nocturne, maîtriser les coûts des dispositifs, réduire les consommations énergétiques... Simultanément, les matériels, les méthodes et les acteurs de l'éclairage n'ont cessé de se diversifier, élargissant toujours plus le champ des possibles. Dans ce contexte, les expérimentations se développent, les questionnements techniques et politiques évoluent, des formations émergent. Cet ouvrage propose de visiter, sans souci d'exhaustivité, les principales démarches, réflexions et expériences récentes en matière d'éclairage public, en France et à l'étranger, d'une part pour en diffuser les résultats et enseignements, d'autre part pour observer comment leur mise en perspective dessine les lignes fortes des évolutions techniques et professionnelles qui sont à l'oeuvre... ou comment se traduit la mutation de l'éclairage, des traditionnelles logiques fonctionnelles, vers des approches diversifiées et qualitatives de la lumière urbaine. Cette approche contemporaine et pluridisciplinaire s'adresse à tous les publics concernés par l'aménagement et l'environnement urbain.
