Résumé:
For over 25 years, Martin Rauch has been at the forefront of research and development in all aspects of rammed earthed construction. As proper design with earth can only come from truly understanding the material, he would now like to share his experience and knowledge of this construction material in a design manual.

Résumé:
"A Place in Mind: Designing Cities for the 21st Century" is the result of Avi Friedman’s worldwide quest for successful environments where people congregate and feel comfortable. Whether he writes of the conviviality of a teahouse in Istanbul; the serenity of Assisi; the squatter settlements of Tijuana, or the architectural harmony of neighbourhoods in London, Friedman conveys his excitement at discovering people-friendly places—antidotes to social isolation. His search for unique spots took him to spiritual places, workplaces, towns’ squares, very cold places and warm ones. They made themselves known unexpectedly, and affected him in some way. He went on to look into their distant and near history, origins and effect on civilizations, the people that inhabit them, and above all, to reflect on what made them special.

Résumé:
Hector Guimard (1867-1942) est principalement connu comme l'auteur des célèbres entrées du métropolitain de Paris (1900-1903), mais aussi du Castel Béranger (1895-1898), immeuble au décor très novateur, point de départ d'une carrière placée sous le signe d'une originalité sans concession. Ce ne sont pas là les uniques chefs-d'oeuvre de cette figure centrale de l'Art nouveau en France. Citons la maison Coilliot à Lille, la salle de musique Humbert-de-Romans à Paris, le Castel Henriette à Sèvres et les nombreux hôtels et immeubles dans lesquels, jusque dans les années 1920, Guimard se fait un devoir de tout dessiner. Architecte, il fut aussi un remarquable concepteur d'objets.
