Résumé:
This wide-ranging book examines the world’s most significant large-scale housing complexes, which point the way for the future of housing design. The seventy residential complexes featured here are recognized as architectural milestones, embodying forward-thinking attitudes towards urban planning. This book chronicles the evolution of these structures, revealing how each best represented its era’s goals: housing a new society in the 1920s and 30s; the 40s and 50s’ leap toward functionality and the future; the high-density urban projects of the 60s and 70s; and diversity and environmental awareness in the 80s and 90s. It also looks at this century’s most progressive developments: Beijing’s Looped Hybrid, a city within a city; India’s Aranya township, which provides housing for impoverished residents; and the environmentally friendly Solaire Apartments in Manhattan, among others. As today’s cities face myriad global challenges, this book provides ample food for thought for anyone concerned with socially responsible architecture.

From the almshouses of seventeenth-century Puritans to the massive housing projects of the mid-twentieth century, the struggle over housing assistance in the United States has exposed a deep-seated ambivalence about the place of the urban poor. Lawrence J. Vale's groundbreaking book is both a comprehensive institutional history of public housing in Boston and a broader examination of the nature and extent of public obligation to house socially and economically marginal Americans during the past 350 years.

Résumé:
The model industrial village of Port Sunlight was founded by the soap manufacturer W. H. Lever (later Lord Leverhulme) in 1888 for the factory workers of his firm of Lever Brothers. The village was acclaimed from the first as exemplifying the best in English town planning and house design, and greatly influenced subsequent industrial villages such as Bournville, and the garden city movement more generally. This guide considers the village in its historical context, with particular emphasis on the planning and architectural aspects. It explains the social and visual significance of Port Sunlight and the reasons for its being unique in the history of town planning, as well as looking at the way its development was influenced by changing fashions in civic design. The relevance of Lever’s own character and interests – his social conscience, his love of art and beauty and his architectural enthusiasms – is also examined. Two tours, one for pedestrians and one for car drivers, which include and describe the most significant buildings of the village, are an additional feature of the guide.

Résumé:
Author Hilary French provides a comprehensive introduction to this building type, from its industrial beginnings in London and Paris to New York City’s Lower East Side and the 20th-century designs of Le Corbusier, Antonio Sant’Elia, and Mies van der Rohe. Lavishly illustrated, the book examines different formal typologies of urban housing: terrace and row houses, quadrangles and courtyards, city blocks and infill (or renovated and reused sites), and towers and slab blocks. Thirty-six case studies from fourteen countries are presented by architects including Steven Holl, Richard Meier, KoningEizenbergArchitecture, Eduardo Souto de Moura, and Renzo Piano. Each is illustrated in full color and is accompanied by detailed plans and sections that discuss the needs of the site and place the project in its surrounding context.

Résumé:
How can we meet the needs of children and young people? Just over 20% of the UK population is under the age of 18, yet they remain largely ignored when it comes to designing the places where they live. In this book, leading architect Dinah Bornat shows how we can shape communities for and with children and young people, as well as the benefits this can achieve. It combines compelling evidence, guidance and illustrated case studies to provide practical solutions for replacing, refurbishing, and reinvigorating an ageing housing stock through child-friendly design. It has become increasingly important for everyone involved in built environment projects to demonstrate a commitment to social value. This book provides opportunities to realise social value in a number of ways, including better engagement.

Résumé:
Construire un trois-pièces pour moins d’un million d’anciens francs (environ 23 000 €). Tel est l’objectif de l’opération Million lancée en France en 1954 par le gouvernement ; la crise du logement est alors à son apogée. L’agence de Georges Candilis, Alexis Josic et Shadrach Woods remporte le concours organisé l’année suivante et construira près de 4 300 logements sur vingt-huit sites. Tour à tour enquête et plaidoyer, l’ouvrage de Korinna Zinovia Weber relate cet épisode majeur et méconnu de la construction des années d’après-guerre et milite pour que les grands ensembles soient reconnus en tant que patrimoine architectural. Que reste-t-il de l’opération Million soixante-dix ans après sa mise en oeuvre ? Partant du terrain, l’autrice dresse un état des lieux, fait le relevé des bâtiments, ausculte leur matérialité, retrace leurs transformations successives : rénovations plus ou moins lourdes, démolitions partielles ou totales. Elle revient sur la genèse de l’opération et souligne la pertinence des choix architecturaux d’origine : organisation des bâtiments, typologie des logements, innovations constructives. Sensible et engagée, Korinna Zinovia Weber nous conduit au cœur de l’opération Million à la rencontre de toutes ses parties prenantes, sans oublier les habitants mobilisés pour sauvegarder leurs lieux de vie face aux intérêts financiers et politiques. Dénuée de tout fétichisme pour l’architecture moderne, l’autrice construit une connaissance utile et opératoire sur les grands ensembles, et nous invite à réapprendre à les transformer et à les habiter dans le contexte de ce premier quart du XXIe siècle confronté à une double crise, du logement et du climat.
