Résumé:
In this highly illustrated monograph, Gurjit Matharoo, a proponent of free thinking, of openness, and inventiveness, touches on the reasons for which his work in India is important in the context of contemporary architecture, underlining how he knows far fewer boundaries than almost any accepted norm. Stretching across nearly three decades of practice, the projects are beautifully presented, with incisive commentary, illustrations, watercolors, plans, and full-colour photography throughout. Significant projects include public and educational institutions, hospitals, commercial and retail buildings, single- and joint-family residences, apartments, religious and spiritual centers, and biennale installations.

Résumé:
This book presents a selection of eco-houses and sustainable homes built according to what is feasible today in terms of sustainable architecture that respects the environment. It shows us what ecological alternatives are available to standard building design and construction. Once considered architectural curiosities, these houses - built in a way that respects the environment - actually lay the foundations of tomorrow's regular construction and the building legacy that we bequeath to our children and grandchildren with which they feel at home and where enjoying a healthy and sustainable environment is the norm.

We just observe Christmas Eve by buying cake and bringing it home to eat; lovers spend it together as the most romantic night of the year. These kinds of customs have become the norm. I could suddenly play the part of the righteous Buddhist and call everyone out on it – You dumbasses, you aren’t even Christians – but it feels like it’d be a waste." — Issei Suda

Résumé:
''After nearly two decades of implementing digital tools, we have reached a new platform where digital design and robotic production are the norm, and by extension, digital craft and integral design are as the future. This has been particularly important in the rethinking of advanced digital design processes. As showcased and examined in this volume, from the earliest(...)

Résumé:
''After nearly two decades of implementing digital tools, we have reached a new platform where digital design and robotic production are the norm, and by extension, digital craft and integral design are as the future. This has been particularly important in the rethinking of advanced digital design processes. As showcased and examined in this volume, from the earliest projects and regardless of scale, Archi-Tectonics has valued performance over form, design intelligence over style. Through prototypes and mock-ups, process documentation and testimonials, the book presents 10 current and recent projects that celebrate the particular and singular over the ideal and universal.''

Résumé:
Conçu dans le cadre du projet annuel Ressaisir la vie, le livre Une portion du présent vise à rétablir un dialogue entre l’architecture et la société, lequel permettrait à la première de commencer à composer et à traiter avec nos normes sociales modifiées et fluctuantes. Cette publication est une réflexion sur de nouveaux comportements, rituels, valeurs et sur leurs implications spatiales. Elle cherche à catalyser des interventions urbaines et architecturales qui concilient, influencent et, dans certains cas, anticipent nos réalités vécues d’aujourd’hui. Les auteurs abordent des sujets qui vont de la sécurité des espaces numériques à la façon dont les trajectoires de vie normatives touchent les personnes âgées et les nombreuses expressions du soi mises de l’avant par chacun d’entre nous, ainsi que la manière dont les architectes créent des contextes pour des espaces destinés à des familles recomposées, des retraités de trente ans et des monuments contestés, entre autres. Rassemblant des essais analytiques portant sur le moment contemporain et la direction que prend actuellement la société, des textes projectifs qui présentent des types architecturaux inédits pour traiter des besoins sociétaux, de même que des séries télévisées, photographies et projets d’architecture et de design, Une portion du présent trace le contour d’une relation nouvelle entre les espaces dans lesquels nous vivons et les manières dont nous le faisons.

Résumé:
This photobook tells the story of a society living through a recurring loop of violent outbursts, in which, time and again, life is shattered into pieces and reconstructed. Photographer Noa Ben-Shalom chooses not to picture the more obvious scenes of direct violence, instead bringing into focus the subtle way the apparently never-ending conflict between Israel and Palestine has permeated all aspects of life in the two regions – almost without being noticed. Through poignant personal correspondence (in English, Arabic, and Hebrew) and images gathered between 2000–2014, Ben-Shalom enables quiet introspection within a landscape in which the absurd has become the norm.
