Résumé:
This study illuminates the complex interplay between Deleuze and Guattari's philosophy and architecture. Presenting their wide-ranging impact on late 20th- and 21st-century architecture, each chapter focuses on a core Deleuzian/Guattarian philosophical concept and one key work of architecture which evokes, contorts, or extends it. Challenging the idea that a concept or theory defines and then produces the physical work and not vice versa, Chris L. Smith positions the relationship between Deleuze and Guattari's philosophy and the field of architecture as one that is mutually substantiating and constitutive. In this framework, modes of architectural production and experimentation become inextricable from the conceptual territories defined by these two key thinkers, producing a rigorous discussion of theoretical, practical, and experimental engagements with their ideas.

Résumé:
Ce livre a pour principal objectif de démontrer que les intérieurs minimalistes sont bien plus que de vastes étendues blanches. Il ne s'agit pas seulement de «simplicité», il est aussi question d'«émotion», une émotion qui exploite le silence et les aspects essentiels. Une quête des sens instaurée par la subtilité des textures et les vibrations éclatantes des touches(...)

Résumé:
''Projet et utopie'' est la réédition du classique - paru en français en 1979 - de Manfredo Tafuri (1935-1994), architecte et théoricien de l'urbanisme italien. En s'attachant à appliquer les thèses opéraïstes aux domaines de l'architecture et de l'urbanisme, l'auteur propose une réflexion sur la métropole comme lieu de l'accumulation capitaliste et de l'antagonisme social. La ville devient dans cette optique l'un des sites majeurs de déploiement de la critique sociale, mais aussi de bon nombre d'entreprises avant-gardistes et utopiques : l'espace urbain comme enjeu politique, imbriqué aux rapports de domination et d'aliénation, qu'il s'agit toujours de subvertir.Projet et utopie ou comment l'histoire de l'architecture se fait critique de l'idéologie.

Résumé:
For the French-Brazilian architect, theorist, and painter Sérgio Ferro, looking at architecture from below means putting the building site and building workers at the centre of architectural enquiry. Instead of new trends or big names, Ferro strives for an approach ‘that enables one to see both head and feet at the same time – the magnanimous ideal and the muck down below’. The process of building rarely features in architectural history and theory. Ferro argues that this persistent dismissal and neglect of building labour is no mere oversight, but instead a structural necessity of capitalist development which serves to deny labour as the source of value, to make capital’s command appear mandatory, and to maintain the profession’s capacity to act ‘on’ and ‘over’ the building site. Written between 1967 and 2019, these ten essays introduce Sérgio Ferro’s vital thinking by confronting architecture with critical theories ranging from Marx to contemporary authors. They draw on concrete cases in different historical and geographical contexts – from Strasbourg to Brasilia, via Dubai – to disclose how capitalist relations of production have transformed architecture and its relations to artistic practices such as painting and sculpture.

Through a reading of the landscape and the topographical structure, Mathias Klotz implements his architectural programme with plastic sensitivity, confirming the importance of the construction and the materials. His reference models range from those of Mies van der Rohe and of those architects active in California after World War II. The Ponce house in Buenos Aires is one of the best expressions of his talent, which shows his skill as an architect who is coherent in his choice of materials, confident in employing them and overt in exhibiting them.

Résumé:
Disapproved of by the critics and extremely nonconformist, Carlo Mollino expressed himself through his architectural designs, his furniture and interiors, in a language assimilated from futurism and surrealism. The influence of architects ranging from Gaudí to Mendelsohn, from Aalto to Le Corbusier, can be seen in his highly individual designs. Projects such as the sledge-lift station at Lago Nero, the Teatro Regio in Turin and the Lutrario ballroom demonstrated his exceptional powers of imagination. The interaction between Mollino’s professional activities and his many interests, which included aeronautics, downhill racing, set design and eroticism. With the demolition of his massive masterpiece, the Ippica in Turin, and the destruction of his most prestigious interiors, all that remains today of Mollino’s work is his furniture. Drawing on rare photographs and documents, this important monograph reconstructs Mollino’s work through more than eighty interiors and pieces of furniture spanning his career, pieces built with such bravura that they often resemble sculpture more than works of industrial design.
