Résumé:
Unknown Fields is a nomadic design studio that ventures out on expeditions into the shadows cast by the contemporary city, to uncover the industrial ecologies and precarious wilderness its technology and culture set in motion. "Tales from the dark side of the city" is a book series that forms an atlas to the territories and stories of a city that stretches across the entire planet, a city that sits between documentary and fiction, a city of dislocated sites, of drone footage and hidden-camera investigations, of interviews and speculative narratives, of toxic objects and distributed matter from distant grounds. They are a collection of tales from the constellation of elsewheres that are conjured into being by the city’s wants and needs, fears and dreams. The series includes stories developed from expeditions through Bolivia and the Atacama Desert, the Western Australian Outback, the South China Sea and Inner Mongolia, the gemfields of Madagascar, Far North Alaska and the black sites of the United States.

Résumé:
Hong Kong’s border with Shenzhen is dissolving. By 2047, the border will likely not exist. Integration with the Mainland will remove distinctions created by the "One Country Two Systems" policy. The uncertainty surrounding what will happen has created anxiety relating to law, identity, freedom of speech, and voting rights. Caught in this debate is the Frontier Closed Area, a 1951 undeveloped buffer zone of estuaries, fish farms, forests, villages and military posts. In contrast, Shenzhen, has exploded into a metropolis of 15 million plus. The book explores this unique border ecology. Design strategies inserted within this ecology promote alternate forms of development. The example widens the discourse on borders to raise critical issues that impact the contemporary city.

Une vague de morosité s'abattit sur les villes françaises au cours des années 1970. En fait, depuis dix ans déjà, l'incertitude avait gagné les milieux de l'architecture et de l'urbanisme, laissant désemparés ceux qui s'étaient ralliés d'enthousiasme au Mouvement moderne et constataient brutalement que ses charmes s'étiolaient. Les vieilles villes y trouvèrent une rédemption. Mais cette brutale révision doctrinale, qui glorifiait la longue durée et proclamait que l'histoire garantissait l'avenir, compliquait évidemment la tâche de ceux qui ne pouvaient s'en prévaloir. Elle rendait spécialement angoissante la situation des villes qui avaient connu une brutale interruption de leur destinée et qu'il avait fallu reconstruire. Déjà, pour d'obscures raisons, leur souvenir était remisé dans la médiocre catégorie des réalisations de l'urgence, dépourvues d'inspiration et de ressources. Elles rencontraient même la défiance de leurs habitants taraudés par la nostalgie ou le regret et la critique des spécialistes dépités que leur relèvement rient manifesté plus d'audace. Pourtant, ces villes sans mérite apparent constituaient un remarquable laboratoire pour interroger les raisons mêmes de l'urbain et leur relation au passé. Surtout, leur incapacité hâtivement proclamée à offrir des conditions propices à l'épanouissement d'un espace public satisfaisant rejoignait l'actualité d'une question qui ne pouvait espérer un plus vaste champ d'élucidation. Brest fut alors pionnière. On y conduisit des recherches originales ponctuées d'hypothèses qui justifièrent des expérimentations inédites et à très grande échelle. La plus ambitieuse d'entre elles, la plus spectaculaire et la plus commentée, la plus polémique aussi, mit à contribution des artistes parmi les plus en vue de l'époque ou à l'aube de leur œuvre, invités ou surgis spontanément. Bien loin en l'occurrence du rôle " d'enlumineurs " de la ville qu'on leur concédait parfois, ils furent promus acteurs principaux de sa transfiguration morale. A la reconstruction architecturale, jugée responsable de bien des maux réels ou psychosomatiques, on opposait ainsi une " reconstruction mentale " capable pensait-on d'apporter un supplément d'âme et de conduire à l'apaisement. En relatant et commentant les trois décennies de cette saga brestoise, l'intention est bien d'éclairer quelques questions universelles, auxquelles l'urbanisme se trouve confronté, et d'apprécier le secours que l'art et les artistes peuvent lui apporter.

Résumé:

This revision includes the full texts of part I of the original, on the Las Vegas strip, and part II, "Ugly and ordinary architecture, or the decorated shed," a generalization from the findings of the first part on symbolism in architecture and the iconography of urban sprawl. (The final part of the first edition, on the architectural work of the firm Venturi and Rauch, is not included in the revision.) The new paperback edition has a smaller format, fewer pictures. There are an added preface by Scott Brown and a bibliography of writings by the members of Venturi and Rauch and about the firm's work.

It offers a global perspective on cities from the vantage point of the world's most populous and rapidly urbanizing continent: Asia, which also acts as the base of the laboratory. This volume illustrates the richness and diversity of research at the Future Cities Laboratory (FCL). The book, which is the first in a planned series, describes new processes and types of data that are being used both to understand and improve cities. New approaches pioneered by FCL and its partners offer an important method to bridge the gap between knowledge production and action, with the aim of ensuring the sustainability of future cities. To reach this goal, FCL works closely with stakeholders in government, industry and society. The program has developed many simulation tools to help practitioners visualize the social, environmental or economic consequences of particular planning decisions.
