Résumé:
Depuis vingt ans la demande en lumière évolue et l'éclairage cristallise des enjeux multiples, pas toujours conciliables : assurer la sécurité, répondre aux besoins des usagers, mettre en valeur le patrimoine, participer aux marketings publics et privés, améliorer le confort des espaces publics centraux et périphériques, accompagner les événements culturels et les festivités locales, identifier les villes et les quartiers, respecter les critères du développement durable, préserver le ciel nocturne, maîtriser les coûts des dispositifs, réduire les consommations énergétiques... Simultanément, les matériels, les méthodes et les acteurs de l'éclairage n'ont cessé de se diversifier, élargissant toujours plus le champ des possibles. Dans ce contexte, les expérimentations se développent, les questionnements techniques et politiques évoluent, des formations émergent. Cet ouvrage propose de visiter, sans souci d'exhaustivité, les principales démarches, réflexions et expériences récentes en matière d'éclairage public, en France et à l'étranger, d'une part pour en diffuser les résultats et enseignements, d'autre part pour observer comment leur mise en perspective dessine les lignes fortes des évolutions techniques et professionnelles qui sont à l'oeuvre... ou comment se traduit la mutation de l'éclairage, des traditionnelles logiques fonctionnelles, vers des approches diversifiées et qualitatives de la lumière urbaine. Cette approche contemporaine et pluridisciplinaire s'adresse à tous les publics concernés par l'aménagement et l'environnement urbain.

Résumé:
This publication brings to light a movement of diverse professionals from around the world who address this fundamental theme: the reuse of materials with architectonic purpose. Though the results are as varied as the designers, all their proposals stem from the intention of giving new life to what had been thrown out. Complementing the built work shown here, the book presents a series of initiatives aimed at promoting the use of waste in architecture, and articles that illustrate a wide panorama of the contemporary recycling culture.

Résumé:
By far the most pervasive and affordable building material in the world, concrete has undergone ever-more-widespread dissemination, standardization, and technological innovation in the last twenty-five years. Recent scientific breakthroughs have yielded composites stronger than steel, lighter than water, and as beautiful as natural stone. In Solid States, an interdisciplinary group of architects, historians, theorists, engineers, fabricators, and materials scientists collectively explore the past, present, and future possibilities of this highly calibrated, fluid material. Solid States presents new theoretical and cultural analyses of concrete architecture, both historically and in the context of newly built work.

Résumé:
One of the essential effects of sustainability, not only in architecture, is the consideration to the objects' life span. From the moment when a building is required to be highly efficient, it used to be an unknown dimension for architecture; the service life. However, for various reasons currently this new dimension became a part of the project variables: the buildings and their components actually live, with their own biorhythm. The progress has not only seen one direction but it's a cocktail of solutions, in which from the most progressive sorts to the most traditional ones are blended. Ceramics symbolize this historical blend embracing unlimited possible futures in one material. Ceramics represent the millennial past of the inert material. On the other hand their soft nature, hardened by subsequent processes, allows any possibility to the form and technology. That makes ceramics as competitive as any other constructive material by their durability and low maintenance.
