Résumé:
Comprising the effort of more than a century of collecting chairs, the Faculty of Architecture of the TU Delft can pride itself on having one of the major furniture collections in the Netherlands.

In the catalogue, the entire collection of over 240 chairs is presented for the first time. Each object is accompanied by images and a thorough description. Also, the book offers comprehensive texts on key designs in the collection, showing the diversity of the collection which consists of world famous designs, 17th, 18th and 19th century designs, everyday household chairs and rare pieces of furniture that have never been published before. Among the designers presented are Verner Panton, Gerrit Th. Rietveld, Hendrik Petrus Berlage, Jean Prouvé, Marcel Breuer and Droog Design.

Résumé:
Que peut l'architecture à l'ère de l'Anthropocène? A-t-elle l'énergie de se saisir de l'occasion pour faire autrement et, ce faisant, de construire d'autres histoires? L'acte de transformation négocie avec l'idée de pertes. Le face-à-face de l'architecte avec celles-ci est continu et se joue en toutes phases, de la conception jusqu'à la réalisation, en passant par la mise en usages. Ce qui est livré se patine, puis s'érode, dès le ruban rouge coupé; ces pertes sont irrémédiables. Le projet déplace les réalités, les fait changer de formes, amenant à concéder un certain nombre de deuils. Certains sont d'ordre individuel, d'autres sont collectifs. Cette condition de l'architecte générateur de pertes est intemporelle. Cependant, elle se conscientise de manière plus aiguë à l'ère de l'Anthropocène où l'idée de table rase est battue en brèche.

Résumé:
The 21st century faces a radical change in how we produce construction materials – a shift towards cultivating, breeding, raising, farming, or growing future resources. This book presents innovative industrialized production methods for cultivated building materials, like cement grown by bacteria, bricks made of mushroom mycelium, or bamboo fibers as reinforcement for concrete. Spanning from scientific research to product development and architectural application, this book builds a bridge between the academic and the professional world of architecture. The book describes the challenges, strategies, and goals in the first part, followed by a second part on bamboo, A cultivated building material and a number of examples in the third part which form the bridge from cultivated materials to building products.
