Résumé:
In a time of loud gestures and ostentation unpretentious buildings, which have been reduced to the essentials with no superfluous decoration, are soothing in their purity. This new volume in the series In Detail demonstrates the breadth and complexity of the issues involved in building simply, from functional and economic demands, through ecological and energy-related aspects, to design and construction requirements. "Building Simply" can be read and applied in many ways. In the face of the sheer wealth of possibilities available today and the ever quicker changes in design and style, it is a creative process which does justice to the nature and quality of the materials used and gives rise to unique projects through an economy of means and resources. The project section documents a comprehensive range of international examples, from simple wooden bridges, to pavilions, residential buildings, workshops, and warehouses.

Résumé:
Green design is the major architectural movement of our time. Throughout the world architects are producing sustainable buildings in an attempt to preserve the environment and our globe's natural resources. However, current strategies for forming sustainable solutions are typically too general and fail to take advantage of critical geographical, environmental, and cultural factors particular to a specific place. By focusing on the Pacific northwest, this book provides essential lessons to architects and students on how sustainable architecture can and should be shaped by the unique conditions of a region. Pacific northwest regionalism has consistently supported an architecture aimed at environmental needs and priorities. This book illuminates the history of a "green trail" in the work of key architects of the northwest. It discusses environmental strategies that work in the region, organized according to nature's most basic elements - earth, air, water, and fire - and their underlying principles and forces. The book focuses on technologies, materials, and methods, with a final section that examines thirteen exceptional northwest buildings in detail and in light of their contributions to sustainable architecture. Critical case studies by northwest architects illustrate some of the best environmental design work in North America. Notable architects from Seattle, Portland, and British Columbia are included. These projects feature innovative design in water and site stewardship, intelligent technologies, passive energy strategies, ecologically sound building materials, and environmentally sensitive energy management systems.

We have come to enjoy plentiful lifestyles in the 21st century, yet we are also facing issues such as climate change, social inequality, epidemics, and the shifts in global dynamics brought on by these things. ‘'How is Life?'’ takes another look at the various facets of our everyday lives, reframing architecture as something that serves to make people’s lives better and exploring ways in which design can be employed to achieve prosperity not premised on growth. By introducing projects that offer possibilities which depart from traditional conceptions of architecture and the city, the book sparks a fresh awareness, inspiring you to explore new perspectives for living together with our Earth.

Résumé:
Premier livre de la collection " Habiterre " : habiter et construire le monde autrement. Maxime Craipeau, spécialiste du dôme géodésique - ; bulle en bois démontable, sans fondation et peu coûteuse - ; propose un manuel d'autoconstruction en 6 étapes de cet habitat léger, qui allie esthétique et fonctionnalité. Forme architecturale qui allie esthétique, fonctionnalité et légèreté, le dôme géodésique inspiré de l'icosaèdre - forme géométrique de la famille des polyèdres comprenant vingt faces faisant référence à la théorie des solides de Platon - est une structure en demi-sphère inscrite dans un cercle hypothétique qui ne nécessite aucun pilier laissant l'intérieur totalement disponible. Présents sur tous les continents, les dômes géodésiques ont investi les lieux publics (musées, salles de spectacles, entrepôts, hangars, serre de jardin...), mais aussi les habitations privées. Démontables, transportables et économes en matériaux, ils font partie des habitats légers à faible impact environnemental ; lumineux et chaleureux, ils deviennent des cocons de bien-être ; faciles à construire et peu coûteux, ils transforment notre rapport au logement et rendent ces projets accessibles au plus grand nombre. Installé sur un rocher en Haute-Loire, Maxime Crépeaux, formateur à ce type d'habitat, a construit son dôme géodésique sans fondation, uniquement maintenu avec des tiges filetées afin de ne pas dénaturer le terrain : 2 m3 de bois pour 30 m2 au sol et une somme totale de 10000 euros. Avec une passion contagieuse, il propose dans ce guide illustré son manuel d'autoconstruction pour ceux et celles qui voudraient se lancer dans cette aventure.
