Résumé:
À l’heure où le froid nous garde à l’intérieur, Continuité s’attarde au patrimoine mobilier québécois, particulièrement à un de ses pans les plus méconnus : le patrimoine moderne. Au cœur du XXe siècle, alors que notre société sentait le besoin de se définir dans le monde moderne, nos meilleurs artisans et concepteurs ont développé un savoir-faire pour déborder des traditions et constituer un héritage contemporain. Forts d’une volonté de concevoir un ameublement québécois original et de plain-pied dans son époque, ces créateurs ont exploré les résonances qu’entretiennent la structure et le décor. Ils ont prolongé le dessin du bâtiment dans le mobilier, rendant ce dernier presque indissociable de l’architecture. Ainsi le meuble s’est ouvert à la nouveauté. Les créateurs québécois ont puisé dans les grands courants stylistiques de l’époque l’inspiration pour repenser le meuble d’ici. Sous leur impulsion est née à la fin des années 1930 la célèbre École du meuble de Montréal, où se sont développés un design mobilier et un savoir-faire uniques. Ses artisans ont imposé une nouvelle signature moderne et authentiquement québécoise. Pour explorer le mobilier moderne, Continuité a sollicité la collaboration de passionnés, de connaisseurs et de collectionneurs qui nous donnent accès à ce patrimoine, des modèles précurseurs des années 1930 jusqu’au design moderne qui s’affirme depuis les années 1960. Comment s’est exprimé ce savoir-faire au XXe siècle, à l’époque où le Québec s’ouvrait au design mobilier ? Qui en étaient les principaux représentants ? Que deviennent ces pièces de collection qui survivent au décor ? Continuité découvre quelques-unes de ces créations qui occupent et meublent nos espaces de vie. Caroline Marois Rédactrice en chef

Volume 13 Ambition

Résumé:
Our field, and perhaps every field, is defined by ambition. To know ourselves we have to know ambition. But ambition is far from simple. It is never straightforward, never the singular drive it appears to be. Rather, it is a set of interacting forces in which often the means are mistaken for ends. This issue of Volume on Ambition offers a preliminary map of what has(...)

Résumé:
Interdisciplinary concepts and activities are getting increasingly important. Architecture meets art, art converges with science and science adopts philosophy creating a whole new discourse.

Crisis implies the questioning of beliefs and habits, it demands adjustment in perception and in modes of action.

Résumé:
A crisis is a turning point, a decisive moment when tensions and instabilities peak and change becomes inescapable. Crisis implies the questioning of beliefs and habits, it demands adjustment in perception and in modes of action. So it is in this sixth installment of Verb that we take the opportunity to widen our angle of view. Having previously explored the positive impact of innovation and technological progress on the built environment, Verb now confronts underlying questions and doubts regarding current models of urban development, in the three chapters 'places', 'positions', and 'projects', including contributions by Shigeru Ban, Markus Miessen, Chantal Mouffe, Teddy Cruz, Takuya Onishi, Foreign Office Architects, and many more.

Résumé:
"Praxis 8, re:programming" reflects upon the complex, ambiguous and ultimately paradoxical set of ideas denoted by the term program. The elusive definition of program is not only because of its complex history but more importantly because of its continuous redefinition in contemporary architectural practice. A broader shift in the term program, with the emergence of computer culture, has empowered architects to see what was traditionally considered a given, as something that can be reprogrammed at will.
