Résumé:
The development of housing in the major European cities is facing a number of challenges in these days of rampant urbanization. This trend is coupled with a growing interest in home ownership and increasingly diverse domestic requirements as a result of demographic change. In response to these challenges, new building initiatives are being formed with the aim of meeting individual requirements through self-determined forms of organization. These housing projects take a communal approach to both the planning process and later day-to-day living. From A for Architect to Z for Zoning, this book provides a brief and informative overview of all the key terms describing communal planning and living.

Résumé:
The book examines the people, places, and policies that have helped make New York livable, from early experiments by housing reformers and the innovative public-private solutions of the 1970s and 1980s to today’s professionalized affordable housing industry. More than two dozen leading scholars tell the story of key figures of the era, including Fiorello LaGuardia, Robert Moses, Jane Jacobs, and Ed Koch. Over twenty-five individual housing complexes are profiled, including Queensbridge Houses, America’s largest public housing complex; Stuyvesant Town; Co-op City; and recent additions like Via Verde. Plans, models, archival photos, and newly commissioned portraits of buildings and tenants put the efforts of the past century into social, political, and cultural context and look ahead to future prospects for below-market subsidized housing.

Résumé:
This book presents a wide selection of interviews and photographs from the collaborations between Willats and residents in the many housing estate projects he makes. The first-hand observations and individual opinions, from the past four decades, record a variety of attitudes and perceptions towards the physical reality of their surroundings. Created outside of the norms and conventions of an object-based art world, the projects in this book, mainly on estates in and around London, but also in Bath, Leeds, Milton Keynes and Oxford, highlight the realities of everyday life in both tower blocks and low-rise planned housing.

Résumé:
This book argues that the mid-rise way of urban living is an essential component of growing cities, demonstrating that the economics of this form of development are better than that of terrace houses or town houses. It begins by examining successful historic precedents of this housing type, such as the tenements of Paris, Amsterdam, Berlin, Barcelona and New York and successful mid-rise housing in London. The book then discusses reasons for the relative lack of contemporary mid-rise housing developments, including planning legislation, and the perception that it is a dull and uniform building type.

Résumé:
At the beginning of the economic crisis in 2007, housing became a central commodity in the short-circuit system of mortgages granted to private individuals and businesses. In the aftermath of the crisis, and in the wake of the COVID-19 Pandemic, housing—as a right, in its most radical form—re-emerged due to local housing, migration, and health emergencies.

Résumé:
At the beginning of the economic crisis in 2007, housing became a central commodity in the short-circuit system of mortgages granted to private individuals and businesses. In the aftermath of the crisis, and in the wake of the COVID-19 Pandemic, housing—as a right, in its most radical form—re-emerged due to local housing, migration, and health emergencies. In light of an eclipse of a general discourse on housing, a new secular and international ethics arose, both foreign and superior to nation states. This book returns to a broader notion of housing: using metaphors of sanitary and salvific reinstatement, it retrieves case studies from the 1950s for re-conceptualizing the housing question in contemporary architecture and visual arts.

Résumé:
Les années 2000 ont marqué un tournant particulier dans la production de logements collectifs en Suisse en s’orientant vers des recherches formelles et spatiales inédites. Ce phénomène de singularisation semble répondre aux profondes mutations du territoire induites par la densification sur l’intérieur, qui implique de construire dans des situations toujours plus complexes et a engendré de nouveaux «contextes» à habiter. Cet ouvrage propose de mettre en évidence l’évolution des tendances conceptuelles et modalités de relation à ces « contextes », à travers les réflexions de plusieurs contributeurs et la constitution d’une iconographie qui donne à voir ou à revoir l’architecture du logement après que la végétation a poussé et que les habitants se soient appropriés les lieux.

The architectural production in Flanders increasingly draws international attention. This is the result of the valuable work accomplished by several Flemish initiatives that has had effects on the rise of a vibrant design and research culture in architecture. In Radical Commonplaces, architects, critics and experts from both Flanders and Europe reflect upon the development of new concepts for living in one of Europe's most densely populated areas, redevelopment projects and infrastructures, and the great cultural ambitions found in a number of public and private buildings in Flanders and elsewhere. With texts by Guy Chtel, Aglaée Degros, Stefan Devoldere, Christoph Grafe, Christian Kieckens, Axel Sowa and Ellis Woodman, among others.
