Résumé:
Various things related to traditional Japanese architecture and everyday life are the focus of this illustrated guide. Interestingly, it is intended not only for English readers but also Japanese people who would like to be able to better explain certain things to people from outside their country. A huge number of items, objects, materials, structures, decorative elements, and so on that one encounters while visiting or living in Japan, but might be too obscure or specific to remember the names, or to even imagine from the term, are included in an accessible and very informative format. For each, the Japanese name, English name, and pronunciation are accompanied by an explanation.

Résumé:
"Architectures de théâtres à Versailles" propose une approche architecturale de l’art du théâtre au XVIIIe siècle. Si la Cour de France au XVIIIe siècle est friande de spectacles, il faut attendre l’inauguration de l’Opéra en 1770 pour que Versailles soit enfin doté d’une salle digne de la résidence royale. Avant cela, comédies, tragédies, opéras et ballets de l’ordinaire se jouent dans l’inconfortable comédie de la Cour des princes puis déplacés dans un théâtre installé à même l’escalier des ambassadeurs ! Quant aux spectacles extraordinaires, ils prennent place dans des espaces spécifiquement aménagés pour l’occasion. Aujourd’hui, seuls subsistent l’Opéra et le théâtre de Trianon, témoins d’un art du spectacle et d’une ingénierie disparus. Grâce à des reconstitutions 3D, l’ouvrage offre une visite privilégiée de ces lieux, qu’ils soient présents ou disparus.

Résumé:
Inspired by the early style of Corbusier and ideas on Mediterranean architecture espoused by the likes of Bernard Rudofsky and Josep Lluís Sert, a younger generation of architects found the perfect conditions to explore the future of the Mediterranean house in Cadaqués—a small fishing village on the Spanish Costa Brava that was also home, or the summer meeting ground, for some of the past century’s greatest artistic figures, including Dalí, Picasso, Miró, and Duchamp. In this new book, photos from the period show the distinctive style and environment of Cadaqués and 22 homes designed by Federico Correa, Alfonso Milà, José Antonio Coderch, Francesc Joan Barba Corsini, Peter Harnden, Lanfranco Bombelli, Oscar Tusquets, and Lluís Clotet. Edited by Nacho Alegre, it features an introduction by Oscar Tusquets and also tells of the friendships and influences that existed between this group of architects, and how their architecture came to be.

Résumé:
L'architecture religieuse contemporaine en France est peu connue du grand public, sinon ignorée. Quelques bâtiments servent de référence, mais qui connaît les autres églises, temples, synagogues et nombreuses mosquées construites à Paris et surtout en banlieue depuis 1945? Or le développement urbain, qui a suivi la Seconde Guerre mondiale et n'a fait que s'amplifier jusqu'à nos jours, a suscité en Île-de-France la construction de près d'un millier de lieux de culte de toutes confessions. Ce guide présente une sélection en 100 notices des lieux les plus intéressants sur le plan architectural, sélection sévère faite par un comité d'historiens de l'art, d'architectes, de conservateurs des Monuments historiques et d'autres experts. Il conduira le lecteur et le visiteur à la découverte de créations tout à fait originales témoignant de l'audace des responsables religieux de notre temps.
