Résumé:
Publié par Giovanni Battista Piranesi en 1765 contre les expériences néoclassiques françaises, anglaises et allemandes, ce dialogue théorique est certainement le texte le plus radical de l'histoire de la théorie architecturale moderne. Selon Hanno-Walter Kruft, il est clair dès le départ que Piranèse, avec son dialogue, « fait de la provocation ». « Utopie négative », ce texte préfigure, selon Manfredo Tafuri, la réduction de l'architecture à un « travail abstrait et répétitif » et anticipe « la distinction fondamentale qu'Adolf Loos énoncera entre architecture, monument et tombeau ». Accompagné de deux essais du philosophe Marco Assennato, qui tentent d'en actualiser le problématiques, Caryatide propose ici une première édition française du texte.

Résumé:
Presenting a collection of exploratory ideas, this book offers an understanding of buildings, people and settlements through concepts of flow. Flows make buildings work; indeed flows make things in general work, including settlements, machines and people. In recent years there has been a huge growth in interest in various aspects of fluidity in architecture and urban planning. This book addresses this rising topic and the interest in processes that flow across traditional boundaries from the person to the building, from the sense of self to the settlement, from economics to identity.

Résumé:
Todd Saunders is one of the most important young contemporary Canadian architects working internationally. His architecture, simple yet powerful, incorporates elements of his country s architectural identity including the use of wood and carefully picked Modernist influences bringing it at the same time into the 21st century with excellent execution, carefully chosen materials and a hands-on approach. Saunders (he lives and works in Bergen, Norway) has successfully executed work in both Canada, Norway, and Finland, creating architecture with a strong sense of northern identity, an individual approach that is informed by the strongness of natural landscape. The most important projects: Aurland Lookout, Long Studio, Fogo Island, Tower Studio, Fogo Island, Squish Studio, Fogo Island and Villa G.

Résumé:
This book presents over 120 of the key arguments of today's major architectural philosophers. These show that the modern architecture of the early part of this century has mutated into three main traditions: a critical and ecological post-modernism; a high-tech and sculptural late modernism, and deconstructive, subversive new modernism. Here are the seminal texts of James Stirling, Robert Venturi, Colin Rowe, Christopher Alexander, Frank Gehry, Reyner Banham, Bernard Tschumi, Rem Koolhaas and many others who have changed the discourse of architecture. Here also are the anti-modern texts of the traditionalists - Leon Krier, Demetri Porphyrios, Quinlan Terry, Prince Charles and others. Many of these texts are concise, edited versions of influential books. Reprinted in 2003.
