Abstract

Ce sont sans doute ses contradictions qui rendent fascinante Los Angeles, l'anti-ville qui est pourtant la deuxième ville des États-Unis. Il n'est que de voir la pléiade d'auteurs qui en ont fait la toile de fond de leur roman ou de leur film. Ses défauts majeurs - le paroxysme de l'étalement urbain, une ville-banlieue impraticable sans voiture - portent paradoxalement une part statistique de rêve : celui de la maison individuelle ; celui aussi des strass et paillettes de l'univers hollywoodien...Quand on évoque le paysage de Los Angeles, une plaine côtière entre mer et montagnes (jusqu'à plus de 3000 m), gigantesque oasis suburbaine dans le désert californien, surgissent de multiples clichés : le soleil sur l'océan Pacifique et les grandes plages de sable fin où s'ébrouent les pulpeuses coast-guards en maillot rouge des séries américaines ; les autoroutes urbaines avec leurs échangeurs qui sillonnent les quelque 100 km d'étendue de l'agglomération ; les nappes de lotissements pavillonnaires noyés dans une végétation plus ou moins dense s'étendant à l'infini au fil de tracés viaires en damiers ; l'émergence des tours de Downtown qui, à l'échelle métropolitaine, a plutôt valeur de monument que de centre-ville, ou celle de plusieurs vagues de collines entre montagne et mer.Autre paradoxe, si l'on s'intéresse plus spécialement à l'architecture : Los Angeles est à la fois un océan de banalité - celle de l'habitation ordinaire, des centres commerciaux standards et des stations-service - et un musée d'architecture de plein air où plusieurs générations de grands architectes modernes et contemporains ont laissé leur signature, notamment pour des maisons particulières, comme Frank Lloyd Wright, Rudolf Schindler et Richard Neutra, puis Charles Eames, Pierre Koenig, John Lautner, Craig Ellwood et Cesar Pelli, ou plus récemment Charles Moore, Frank Gehry, ou Morphosis..

Abstract

The book 'Typology' presents around 160 buildings in Hong Kong, Rome, New York, and Buenos Aires that have been analyzed by the chair of Emanuel Christ and Christoph Gantenbein at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich. This selective and subjective inventory of metropolitan and essentially anonymous 20th century building production provides a basis for urban project creation.In this book, each building is documented with layout and floor plan, axonometric projection, photograph, and key information. The essays by Emanuel Christ and Christoph Gantenbein and four texts by other authors explain the interactions between the contexts, especially the governing urban rule sets and the buildings, and show the potential for the design of a contemporary urban architecture. With essays by Emanuel Christ, Christoph Gantenbein, Fernando Diez, Francesco Garofalo, Carol Gerselle Krinsky, and Hendrik Tieben.

Abstract

"At the turn of the twenty-first century, the world is faced with an unprecedented challenge. It must address a fundamental shift in the world's population towards the cities, and away from mankind's rural roots. Over the course of two years, a group of internationally renowned professionals from a variety of different disciplines and backgrounds gathered together in six world cities to take stock of the new urban condition and to offer an approach to dealing with it. The result was a sometimes passionate, always challenging and informed debate on how architects, urbanists, politicians and policy makers can constructively plan the infrastructure and development of the endless city, to promote a better social and economic life for its citizens."--Jacket.

Abstract

At the close of the 19th century, industrialization and urbanization marked the end of the traditional understanding of society as rooted in agriculture. This book examines the construction of an urban-centred, industrial-based culture - an entirely new social reality based on science and technology.
