Résumé:
This volume showcases jet-set homes designed by the likes of Neutra, Frey, Lautner, and others. Palm Springs is famous as a mecca for the international jet set. But the city has also attracted its share of eccentrics and mavericks who have left an architectural legacy that remains unsurpassed for its originality and international influence. This book examines the impact that architects and designers have had on the desert oasis, primarily from the 1940s to the 1960s. Palm Springs Modern features examples of midcentury modernism at its most glamorous, some of them the residences of prominent figures who commissioned weekend getaways in the desert, including Frank Sinatra, Walter Annenberg, and Raymond Loewy.

Résumé:
Les maisons d’architecte japonaises intriguent. Souvent mal comprises et extraites de leur contexte physique, culturel et social, elles évoquent une course étrange et frénétique à la nouveauté, voire un rapport mal cerné à la tradition. Ce livre cherche à donner des repères historiques et contextuels qui permettent de mieux comprendre les conditions d’élaboration et de production de ces maisons. Les auteurs ont sélectionné 14 maisons d’hier et 20 d’aujourd’hui. Les premières constituent les jalons du XXè siècle. Les secondes sont récentes et montrent une nouvelle génération de créateurs à l’œuvre. Ces études de cas, composées d’interviews, de plans, de photos et de films, offrent un florilège à la fois didactique et léger, où l’ordinaire côtoie toujours l’exotique. Ce livre est le catalogue de l’exposition Japon L’archipel de la Maison.
