The model industrial village of Port Sunlight was founded by the soap manufacturer W. H. Lever (later Lord Leverhulme) in 1888 for the factory workers of his firm of Lever Brothers. The village was acclaimed from the first as exemplifying the best in English town planning and house design, and greatly influenced subsequent industrial villages such as Bournville, and the(...)

Résumé:
The model industrial village of Port Sunlight was founded by the soap manufacturer W. H. Lever (later Lord Leverhulme) in 1888 for the factory workers of his firm of Lever Brothers. The village was acclaimed from the first as exemplifying the best in English town planning and house design, and greatly influenced subsequent industrial villages such as Bournville, and the garden city movement more generally. This guide considers the village in its historical context, with particular emphasis on the planning and architectural aspects. It explains the social and visual significance of Port Sunlight and the reasons for its being unique in the history of town planning, as well as looking at the way its development was influenced by changing fashions in civic design. The relevance of Lever’s own character and interests – his social conscience, his love of art and beauty and his architectural enthusiasms – is also examined. Two tours, one for pedestrians and one for car drivers, which include and describe the most significant buildings of the village, are an additional feature of the guide.

Résumé:
Current design of apartment buildings is facing challenges of philosophy and form. Past approaches no longer sustain new demands and require innovative thinking. The need for a new outlook is propelled by fundamental changes that touch upon environmental, economic, cultural and social aspects that led to the writing of this book. The depletion of non-renewable natural resources and climate change are a few of the environmental challenges that prompted designers to reconsider conceptual approaches in favour of ones that promote a better suitability between buildings and their environments. Concepts that minimize the building?s carbon footprint, passive solar gain, net-zero structures and water harvesting system are some of the contemporary strategies that architects and builders are integrating into their thought processes and design. Increasing costs of material, labour, land and infrastructure have posed economic challenges with affordability being paramount among them. The need to do with less brings about concepts that include adaptable dwellings, and smaller-sized yet quality-designed housing. Social challenges are also drawing attention.

Résumé:
Les cités-jardins, inspirées du modèle anglais, voient le jour en France au début du XXe siècle. Implantées loin des nuisances des agglomérations industrielles et pour la population ouvrière, ces villes nouvelles avant l'heure ont la particularité d'associer habitat individuel et collectif, équipements (sociaux, culturels, scolaires...) et végétation (jardins privatifs, potagers, aménagement paysager des espaces publics). De Pantin à Stains en passant par Le Pré-Saint-Gervais ou Les Lilas, une vingtaine de ces ensembles, essentiellement situés dans la banlieue nord-est de Paris, sont présentés dans ce livre. Les cités-jardins ont donné lieu à des recherches sur les modes de construction les plus avancés - préfabrication, béton armé - en vue de bâtir vite et moins cher. Elles ont été parfois de véritables laboratoires urbains et architecturaux où s'est aussi élaborée une réflexion, progressiste pour l'époque, sur le logement social. Arborant des styles variés, du pittoresque au moderne, jouant sur des matériaux très différents, de la brique au béton, elles révèlent des qualités architecturales souvent remarquables. Aujourd'hui, alors que la croissance des zones périurbaines suscite des interrogations, la cité-jardin réapparaît dans la production contemporaine; par la mixité qu'elle induit et par l'intégration qu'elle permet des préoccupations liées au développement durable, elle devrait en effet constituer une source d'inspiration pour la conception de nouveaux quartiers d'habitat dense.

Résumé:
Durant sa vie, Le Corbusier a construit seulement cinq unités d'habitation - à Marseille, Rezé, Berlin, Briey et Firminy -, bien peu en regard des soixante-dix que l'architecte a conçues et qui devaient apporter, avec ce nouveau modèle typologique d'habitat, une véritable révolution dans l'aménagement urbain. Si ces réalisations font figure d'exceptions, elles appartiennent déjà à l'histoire sociale et culturelle du XX° siècle : en effet, elles répondent à un contexte de pénurie de logements durant la période de la reconstruction (Marseille et Rezé) et celui de l'industrialisation de régions sidérurgiques et minières (Firminy et Briey) ; d'autre part, elles s'inscrivent dans la poursuite du Mouvement moderne des années 1930, qui trouve après-guerre un terrain favorable pour s'exprimer à grande échelle (Interbau 57 à Berlin). Manifestations d'un idéal de vie moderne qui promeut le développement de nouveaux équipements dans les logements (eau courante, chauffage central, cuisine équipée...) et de services collectifs dans l'immeuble (commerce, école, équipement sportif, théâtre en plein air), les unités d'habitation ont su s'adapter aux changements jusqu'à s'inscrire résolument dans la contemporanéité, mais aussi comme un patrimoine architectural. Cet ouvrage retrace leur histoire en présentant le contexte de leur commande, le déroulement du chantier ainsi que leur vie et leurs évolutions. Les photographies accompagnant les textes, fruits d'un dialogue entre les habitants et les auteurs, montrent combien le combat de Le Corbusier pour le logement social reste vivant et que son utopie est devenue une réalité évolutive.

Résumé:
The construction of domestic privacy has been a gradual process which has transformed the physical space. Perceptions of self and our relationship with the exterior have also shifted. The house is a protected environment which facilitates tranquillity, privacy, withdrawal, and concentration, away from the public realm. Finding thresholds to develop communication in the intermediate space, not entirely public but in fact a shared place of social encounters, remains a key issue for architects today. With contributions by Stephen Bates, Javier Mozas, and Aurora Fernádez, this volume dedicates itself to examining strategies in how privacy can be built in the collective housing environment.

Paradoxically, the historical legacy of Korean housing is both heroic and mundane. Until recently, the nation’s rapid urbanisation fuelled the creation of new regions of high-density dwellings, while cycles of urban renewal continue to push the radical disjunction between new and historical fabrics. Yet the ongoing impasse between developmental pressures and design progress has reduced housing to its basic elements. A current wave of architects has begun formulating new, efficient syntaxes with nuanced social qualities. While the works in this volume represent unique solutions, what we can learn from their innovations goes far further, towards making conscious typological advances.
