Résumé:
Écologie, communauté et style de vie est le chef d'oeuvre de la philosophie environnementale d'Arne Naess. L'ouvrage présente sous une forme synthétique les fondamentaux de la deep ecology et en élucide les principes dans les divers registres où elle s'exprime: en théorie de la connaissance (où l'enjeu est d'examiner le lien qui existe entre agir, évaluer et éprouver des émotions), en éthique (où il s'agit de lier des jugements de valeur au sein d'un système normatif), en métaphysique (où il en va de déterminer la réalité comme système de relations et de processus interconnectés), et en politique (où l'objectif est de clarifier les grandes lignes d'un mouvement social susceptible de fédérer le plus grand nombre de bonnes volontés).

Résumé:
First published in French in 1983, 'The Cathedral of Mist' is a collection of stories from the last of the great Francophone Belgian fantasists: distilled tales of distant journeys, buried memories and impossible architecture. Described here are the emotionally disturbed architectural plan for a palace of emptiness; the experience of snowfall in a bed in the middle of a Finnish forest; the memory chambers that fuel the marvelous futility of the endeavor to write; the beautiful woodland church, built of warm air currents and fog, scattering in storms and taking renewed shape at dusk, that gives this book its title.

Au début, il n'y a que Loulou, la barmaid primordiale. Puis apparaît Rénald, très agité, nerveux comme un enfant qui a peur. Il y a un silence. Avec grand fracas entrent(...)

Au début, il n'y a que Loulou, la barmaid primordiale. Puis apparaît Rénald, très agité, nerveux comme un enfant qui a peur. Il y a un silence. Avec grand fracas entrent Martial, Mario et un inconnu, tous les trois détrempés. Prisonniers de la tempête, ils vont tour à tour raconter leur histoire et se confier leur peur la plus étrange, jusqu'à ce que chacun comprenne qu'il a un rôle à jouer dans une histoire plus terrible encore, et qui est toujours en train de s'écrire.

Résumé:
With Common Space, activist and architect Stavros Stavrides calls for a reconceiving of public and private space in the modern age. Stavrides appeals for a new understanding of common space not only as something that can be governed and open to all, but as an essential aspect of our world that expresses, encourages, and exemplifies new forms of social relations and shared experiences. He shows how these spaces are created, through a fascinating global examination of social housing, self-built urban settlements, street peddlers, and public art and graffiti. The first book to explicitly tackle the notion of the city as commons, Common Space, offers an insightful study into the links between space and social relations, revealing the hidden emancipatory potential within our urban worlds.

Résumé:
In this publication, Alberto Pérez-Gómez calls for an architecture that can enhance our human values and capacities, an architecture that is connected -- attuned -- to its location and its inhabitants. Architecture, Pérez-Gómez explains, operates as a communicative setting for societies; its beauty and its meaning lie in its connection to human health and self-understanding.

Résumé:
Sou Fujimoto (born 1971) is a Japanese architect noted for his delicate light structures and permeable enclosures. In 2014, after three years of research, design and construction, Fujimoto’s studio, Sou Fujimoto Architects, created Mirrored Gardens, a village-inspired arts complex of platforms and cabins on the outskirts of Guangzhou, China. The locally sourced structure houses a gallery, art studios and visitor facilities. This book reflects the research that inspired the Mirrored Gardens. Touching on Chinese garden and Japanese Zen garden study, permaculture and farming practices, Towards a Non-Intentional Space is an unusual look into innovative architecture oriented toward a quotidian, farming lifestyle.

Résumé:
Superstudio (1966–86), a group of Florence-based architects comprising Adolfo Natalini, Cristiano Toraldo di Francia, Roberto Magris, Gian Piero Frassinelli, Alessandro Magris and, from 1970 to 1972, Alessandro Poli, were among the leading radical architects of the 1960s. Almost 50 years after the group’s establishment, their designs are gathered for the first time in this volume, which contextualizes the firm’s works with that of contemporary artists, including Danai Anesiadou, Alexandra Bachzetsis, Ila Beka and Louise Lemoine, Pablo Bronstein and Stefano Graziani, among many others. This catalogue compiles Superstudio’s documents—including images, collages, critical writings and storyboards—drawn from the archive, and includes critical contributions from curators Andreas Angelidakis, Vittorio Pizzigoni and Valer Scelsi. Super Superstudio is an important tribute to an assault on modernism, that, as the volume reveals, remained and remains relevant for generations to come.
