Résumé:
Ces 10 clefs abordent l'architecture non par une accroche spectaculaire, mais par une voie plus subjective. Elles tentent d'éviter l'écueil consistant à présenter ce domaine aux yeux du grand public comme une valeur culturelle fondée soit sur la dimension patrimoniale, soit sur les prouesses techniques des grands ouvrages d'art, ou encore sur la dimension événementielle de certaines réalisations qui se prêtent aux jeux des caméras et deviennent de parfaits décors pour le fond d'écran des journaux télévisés. Ce texte est destiné à initier une démarche personnelle, à stimuler la curiosité du lecteur en introduisant l'architecture par son versant sensible et émotionnel. Il s'adresse aux curieux, amoureux des villes, des parcs et des jardins, à ceux qui aiment le paysage, ceux qui n'hésitent pas à quitter leur espace domestique pour se perdre dans l'espace urbain.

Résumé:
The successful combination of a regional building style of sophisticated simplicity with sustainable construction methods has made the architecture of Vorarlberg (Austria) a model for the rest of the world. This book presents particularly successful projects from recent years involving various building types and portrays their development from design idea to built detail. The documented structures by Cukrowicz Nachbaur, Christian Lenz, Oskar Leo Kaufmann + Albert Rüf, Hermann Kaufmann, Dietrich Untertrifaller, Baumschlager Eberle, Marte.Marte, and Martin Rauch place the focus on their energy strategy and formally ambitious construction methods. All of the plans and detail drawings were specially prepared for the book, which makes it easy to compare the projects.

Résumé:
Like many stylistic terms in architecture, the exact parameters denoted by the word “Brutalism” are difficult to precisely pin down. Brutalism is a style which was particularly prominent during the late 1960s and early 1970s. The emphasis on harsh geometric forms and unadorned rough concrete and brick have resulted in very strong feelings of hate or love for these buildings. This tour documents a number of Brutalist style buildings in Winnipeg and explores their genesis, as well as the place of Brutalism in the history of the city.
