Abstract

Phylum H' describes a very special architectural task: constructing a hospital. Brunet Saunier Architecture is dedicated to this type of research and further development. Their process is based on intensive research on the functional procedures required in medicine, social demands, and aesthetic possibilities. With these complex ideas, their plans become fascinating time capsules. On one hand, the analytical gaze looks to the past, searching for the medical, historical, and typological elements of the function of hospitals. On the other, potential new technologies, and practices for life and treatment are also examined. In the present, this results in unique buildings distinguished by a sophisticated mastery of flexible spatial structure and integrative design. They create a place for technology, knowledge, work, and social life--for both today and tomorrow. This publication discusses this unique creative process, using sketches, interviews, 3D models, blueprints, and photographs. BRUNET SAUNIER ARCHITECTURE was founded in 1981 by the architects Jérôme Brunet and Eric Saunier. The firm is primarily devoted to erecting public buildings. The successful interaction of formal and functional aspects of their hospital buildings made the architectural office famous across Europe.

Abstract

A l'instar de toutes les métropoles européennes, Bruxelles fait face à de grands défis urbains et sociaux : démographie et flux migratoires, économie urbaine, mobilité, nouveaux quartiers, équipements publics. De Copenhague à Tirana, de Londres à Madrid, en passant par Milan, Zurich, Rome, Gand, Hambourg, Anvers, La Haye, Zaanstad, Turnhout, Barcelone, Bilbao, Paris, Bordeaux, Boulogne-Billancourt, Lyon, Lille ou Amsterdam, ce livre rassemble les expériences positives de 44 projets urbains exemplaires et novateurs qui montrent que l'Europe devient pour Bruxelles un véritable laboratoire de réflexion et d'inspiration : transformation de zones délaissées en lieux dynamiques à fortes attractivités économique et culturelle, logement social intégré, tramway et métro fédérateurs et créateurs de nouveaux symboles. Ils sont signés Alexandre Chemetoff, Christ & Gantenbein, FOA, Foster + Partners, Edouard François, Grafton Architects, Zaha Hadid, Rem Koolhaas, Lacaton & Vassal, Jean Nouvel, Bernardo Secchi, Peter Zumthor...
