Résumé:
The fourth edition of the Chapters series by Belgian architecture firm 51N4E proposes a fresh approach to urban design, using infrastructure as a spark for collective thinking about what we value and invest in as a society. Developed with Newrope, it blends research and practice to explore how infrastructural boundary objects – elements that both structure space and encourage new uses – can play a key role in shaping cities. Drawing on eight 51N4E projects in Central Europe and four design themes from Newrope (intimacy, pattern, performance, togetherness), the book examines how each project responds to its local context, creating spaces that are stable yet adaptable over time.

Nourri d’exemples concrets venus du monde entier, cet essai propose une nouvelle grammaire de l’adaptation. Il développe quatre concepts fondateurs – One Climate One Risk, le Minimax climatique, Net Positive et l’Éthique climatique – pour transformer la sidération en action. À la croisée de la science, de la stratégie et de la philosophie politique, il trace la voie d’une Europe capable non seulement de se protéger, mais de retrouver un rôle actif dans les grands équilibres du vivant.

Produced in an atmosphere of mutual curiosity and collaboration, these works proposed China and Europe as similarly distant and exotic civilizations with parallel histories and at least some values in common. China on paper opens a window on these vibrant and largely unexamined exchanges whereby the denizens of two vast regions created visions of themselves and each other in a newly expanded world.

This book showcases buildings whose construction has been based on simple technology, good craftsmanship and careful choice of local and natural materials, as well as local development initiatives that demonstrate excellence in building quality, landscape restoration and community revitalization. The selection of case studies is broad and definitely unconventional: it encompasses Europe and Japan, and privileges lesser-known authors, unobtrusive works and marginal localities where radically fresh attitudes have been able to develop.

Since its Renaissance resurrection, the enigmatic text has been adapted, refined, and redefined in subsequent iterations. ''Vitruvius without text'' bypasses critical interpretations to focus on the material history of the printed editions that appeared throughout Europe. It surveys over 100 editions from 1486 to the present, tracing the power of the printed page in establishing the Roman author as an authority. By focusing on the impact of the physical objects of the Vitruvian canon, it highlights how the history of printing and architecture intersect to form a symbiotic relationship.

But this is also an art history of the polyhedra themselves, emblems of an evolving artistic intelligence, which include a varied set of geometrical figures—both Platonic, or regular, like the simple tetrahedron, and Archimedean, or irregular, like the complex yet beguiling rhombicosidodecahedron.
