Résumé:
The work of British architects ABK is characterised by the founding partners' belief that buildings should address far more than purely functional needs. Key issues for this practice since it was founded 40 years ago have become central concerns for architecture in the early 21st century: energy and the environment, historic context and the importance of user participation. Peter Ahrends, Richard Burton and Paul Koralek are particularly interested in the integration of art, architecture and landscape, an approach which has resulted in a series of collaborative partnerships over the course of their careers. This book traces the practice's development, from early landmark projects like the Berkeley Library at Trinity College, Dublin to the highly acclaimed British Embassy in Moscow, which opened in 2000. It also tells the full story, for the first time, behind the most notorious British architectural episode of the 1980s - how ABK won the commission to design an extension to the National Gallery in London, only to have it taken away from them when Prince Charles described the scheme as a 'monstrous carbuncle'.

Résumé:
"What is architecture?" Many great architects, from Ludwig Mies van der Rohe to Etienne-Louis Boullée, have grappled with this question. This book has emerged from a process of personal reflection of the author on the practice of architecture and is, in essence, a collection of thoughts on how to understand architecture and architectural design. It does not aim to provide an exhaustive or systematic treatment. These reflections—shaped through teaching—remain personal, even if they aspire to be shared by others. The crux of the argument made here is that the history of architecture should be recognised as the foundational matrix of architectural identity. Starting from this premise, the inquiry delves into the essence of architecture and design; it asks how this discipline can be taught and learned, what constitutes a theoretical text on design, and what defines architectural research. The book addresses those who, much like an architecture student, wish to "understand better".

Résumé:
De quoi dépend l'architecture ? Des gens, de l'époque, de la politique, de l'économie, de l'éthique, du désordre... Bref, du réel dans son imprévisible complexité et son irréductible incertitude. Jeremy Till invite les architectes à prendre davantage en considération ces contingences, qui excèdent leur sphère de contrôle mais finissent toujours par s'imposer à leurs oeuvres. Avec rigueur et ironie, l'auteur déconstruit pas à pas l'autonomie que les architectes confèrent à leur discipline et qui les maintient dans une vision pure et idéale des objets qu'ils conçoivent. Les circonstances contrarient pourtant les plans les mieux tracés, à tout moment du processus, de la conception jusqu'à la construction et à l'utilisation d'un bâtiment. Le « Less is more » de Mies fait invariablement place au « Mess is the law » de Till.
