Résumé:
A Prefab is a mass produced house, constructed in a factory and assembled on site in a few days or weeks. Once regarded as a cheap, easy solution for urgent housing problems, the prefab has evolved to become a synonym for ambitious design and sophisticated detailing solutions. The amazing history of prefabricated houses started in England in the 1830's with a building kit for emigrants moving to Australia. Even today, prefabricated houses provide a high percentage of living spaces in many countries of the world. This book covers prefabs from the USA via Europe to Asia and Africa, giving insight into the various industrially prefabricated components, the difficulties of delivery to the building site, and the intricacies of assembly and completion. As well as tracing the liaison between modernism and industrialization that evolved to produce the latest prefabricated solutions, it also features a unique compilation of one-off prefabricated houses by well known international architects, as well as successful dwellings manufactured off-site for everyday modern living. Readers will also find contact details for relevant suppliers and manufacturers.

It is only through committed confrontation in built and social contexts that locality-specific and therefore identity-creating buildings can be designed.

With essays from various authors, this second edition explores the complexity of the individual components of design. In corresponding exercise sections a clearly defined and structured methodology for the design process is formulated - a methodology that can be used for teaching as well as in practice.

Résumé:
S'adressant à tous ceux qui s'intéressent à l'art et à son histoire, cette publication vise à éclairer, dans toute sa richesse, le rôle exceptionnel qu'un humaniste montréalais, Jean-Baptiste Lagacé, superbement prolifique et polyvalent a joué dans ce processus d'institutionnalisation de l'histoire de l'art. L'ouvrage d'Olga Hazan met en lumière le contexte dans lequel a été créée la première chaire canadienne d'histoire de l'art, occupée par Jean-Baptiste Lagacé de 1904 à 1944. Ce faisant, il vise à faire connaître les conditions dans lesquelles une culture artistique, c'est-à-dire un champ de savoir axé sur l'art et son histoire, s'est forgé une place à Montréal dès la deuxième moitié du XIXe siècle et pour la première fois au Canada, affectant autant les milieux universitaire et scolaire que le monde ouvrier.

Résumé:
Created in 1987, the agency Pierre du Besset and Dominique Lyon occupies an important place in the architectural scene today. Construction is for Dominique Lyon an opportunity to undertake an overview of his projects thus far (whether built or not), from the Maison de la Villette and the headquarters of Le Monde newspaper to the Tangier ferry terminal and the French embassy in Tokyo, by way of the French pavilion for the Seville World’s Fair and the multimedia libraries of Orleans and Troyes. In this book, Dominique Lyon defends a decidedly critical position, supported by an uninterrupted conversation with the real.
