"Modern Architecture and Climate explores how leading architects of the twentieth century incorporated climate-mediating strategies into their designs, and shows how regional approaches to climate adaptability were essential to the development of modern architecture. Focusing on the period surrounding World War II-before fossil-fuel powered air-conditioning became widely available-Daniel Barber brings to light a vibrant and dynamic architectural discussion involving design, materials, and shading systems as means of interior climate control. He looks at projects by well-known architects such as Richard Neutra, Le Corbusier, Lúcio Costa, Mies van der Rohe, and Skidmore, Owings, and Merrill, and the work of climate-focused architects such as MMM Roberto, Olgyay and Olgyay, and Cliff May. Drawing on the editorial projects of James Marston Fitch, Elizabeth Gordon, and others, he demonstrates how images and diagrams produced by architects helped conceptualize climate knowledge, alongside the work of meteorologists, physicists, engineers, and social scientists. Barber describes how this novel type of environmental media catalyzed new ways of thinking about climate and architectural design. Extensively illustrated with archival material, Modern Architecture and Climate provides global perspectives on modern architecture and its evolving relationship with a changing climate, showcasing designs from Latin America, Europe, the United States, the Middle East, and Africa. This timely and important book reconciles the cultural dynamism of architecture with the material realities of ever-increasing carbon emissions from the mechanical cooling systems of buildings, and offers a historical foundation for today's zero-carbon design"--

"How do we make sense of the Earth at a moment in which it is presented in crisis? Geostories is a manifesto on the environmental imagination that renders sensible the issues of climate change and through geographic fiction invites readers to relate to the complexity of Earth systems in their vast scales of time and space. The book is organized into three sections-terrarium, aquarium, planetarium, each of which revisits such devices of wonder that assemble publics around representations of the Earth. The series of architectural projects becomes a medium to synthesize different forms and scales of knowledge on technological externalities, such as oil extraction, deep-sea mining, ocean acidification, water shortage, air pollution, trash, space debris, and a host of other social-ecological issues. Through design research, Geostories brings together spatial history, geographic representation, projective design, and material public assemblies to speculate on ways of living with such legacy technologies on the planet."--

Pourquoi notre nature homéotherme a donné naissance à l'architecture ? Comment le blé a engendré la ville ? Comment les petits pois ont fait s'élever les cathédrales gothiques ? Ce que les dômes doivent à la peur de l'air stagnant ? Comment un brin de menthe invente les parcs urbains ? Pourquoi l'éruption d'un volcan a-t-elle inventé la ville moderne ? Comment le pétrole a-t-il fait pousser des villes dans le désert ? ... Comment le Co2 est-il en train de transformer les villes et les bâtiments ? L'Histoire naturelle de l'architecture met en lumière les causes naturelles, physiques, biologiques ou climatiques qui ont influencé le déroulé de l'histoire architecturale et provoqué le surgissement de ses figures, de la préhistoire à nos jours. Induite par un contexte d'accès massif et facile à l'énergie, celle du charbon puis du pétrole, et par les progrès de la médecine (avec l'invention des vaccins et des antibiotiques), l'historiographie politique, sociale et culturelle a, au XXe siècle, largement ignoré les faits physiques, géographiques, climatiques et bactériologiques qui ont façonné de façon décisive, à travers les siècles, les formes architecturales et urbaines. Relire l'histoire de l'architecture à partir de ces données objectives, matérielles, réelles permet d'affronter les défis environnementaux majeurs de notre siècle et de mieux construire, aujourd'hui, face à l'urgence climatique.
