Résumé:
Cities and Nature illustrated how the city is part of the environment, and how it is subject to environmental constraints and opportunities. The city has been treated in geographical writings as only a social phenomenon, and at the same time, environmental scientists have tended to ignore the urban. This book aims to reconnect the science and social science through the examination of the urban. It critiques the dominant academic discourse which ignores the environment and how this is subjected to social influences.

Résumé:
In "Campus and the city", experts present and comment on current trends in campus design world-wide. Details of thirty outstanding campuses - be these inner-city, greenfield, high-tech or corportate - shed light on possible future trends and how these relate to the urban context. Restructuring outdated postwar campuses and establishing new university and commercial districts, especially in emerging Asian nations, requires fresh approaches and a clear vision of spatial and programmatic interrelationships. In addition, corporations and academic institutions alike are increasingly seeking strategies capable of encouraging innovation and synergy in their research centres, often drawing on the existing potential of their surroundings. This volume addresses important aspects of new conceptions of the campus - ranging from forms of spatial organisation that promote internal knowledge and social interaction to different types of urban design strategies aimed at creating sustainable centres of knowledge and learning that are responsive to society's ever changing demands.

Résumé:
Thomas Demand is known for his large-format photographic work. As the head designer of Dior Homme, Hedi Slimane revolutionized men’s fashion. He is also known for his work as an artist. Peter Saville wrote design history with his album covers for British bands such as Joy Division, New Order and Pulp, and with his work for fashion designers. Demand, Slimane, and Saville have all gone beyond the limitations of a single type of media to realize their ideas and visions. They discuss their work and motivation in a conversation in Berlin with the curator Hans Ulrich Obrist and the editor Cristina Bechtler, and also share their views on new forms of creativity, cross-border endeavors, fashion, architecture, photography, political art and many more subjects.

Résumé:
In moving freely among the public and private spheres, design forces us to ask whether the distinction we still draw between them adequately describes our world today. The authors assembled in this volume - including, among others, Bazon Brock, Gesche Joost, Uta Brandes, and Luigi Blau -reflect on this question and provide a wide array of insights into its answer.

Résumé:
The conditions in which present-day architecture is produced are partly local and singular and partly global and universal. Understanding contemporary architecture means understanding all of these aspects. What are the pivotal themes? Gert Wingårdh and Rasmus Wærn, Swedens most active architect and its best-known architecture critic, asked themselves this question and made a selection of approximately fifty terms and concepts, including Branding, Collaborators, Corporate, Desire, Future, Everyday, Ornament, and Wheelchair. The result is a very special dictionary with humorous illustrations and original articles by interesting protagonists such as Denise Scott Brown, Kenneth Frampton, Massimiliano Fuksas, Hans Ibelings, Peter Blundell Jones, Vittorio Magnago Lampugnani, Hans Ulrich Obrist, Juhani Pallasmaa, Joseph Rykwert, Jaime Salazar, Axel Sowa, and Wilfried Wang. A special highlight is the text by Nobel laureate Ohran Pamuk.

Résumé:
En tant que thème significatif de l'urbanisme contemporain, le lieu de passage nécessite une étude détaillée des exemples les plus brillants. Un lieu où les gens affluent pour voir et être vus, le passage est le point de rencontre par lequel l'identité d'une société doit se réaffirmer de manière quotidienne. L'oubli de cet ingrédient n'a fait que mettre en évidence le besoin social d'espaces publics éloignés de l'image de la station service. Ainsi se produit l'engrenage des tendances plus actuelles de l'urbanisme contemporain avec une tradition urbaine enracinée, dans le contexte vibrant d'un nouveau terrain conceptuel. Riche en projets documentés en détails avec des photographies en couleurs grand format, des esquisses, des plans et des textes explicatifs apportés par les architectes des projets sélectionnés, ce livre répond aux besoins de l'architecte professionnel comme du passionné, leur permettant d'acquérir la dernière mise à jour de l'information sur la gestion des espaces publics aussi bien en milieu urbain qu'en milieu rural.
