5+1. Les Docks Marseille. Ediz. illustrata
The large building, today known as Les Docks, designed by Gustave Desplaces and constructed between 1858 and 1864 on the model of the warehouses in the docklands of London, looks like a stone ship looming over the wharves of the port of Marseille. Rightly or wrongly, its designer is credited with the idea of having associated the construction with a symbolic and imaginative calendar: 365 meters in length, the number of days in a year, four courtyards, like the seasons, fifty-two doors, and seven stories... Urban myth or the truth? What is certain is that esoteric symbolism and a taste for numbers were often the prerogative of master builders and architects and undoubtedly fascinate the Italians Alfonso Femia and Gianluca Peluffo of 5+1AA. Their renowned ability to bring together the know-how of artisans, artists, contractors, and suppliers of materials has produced a remarkable aesthetic result, in which color and material articulate the internal spaces, animated by stores, restaurants, and offices.
Spoiled Climate
Architectural projects which expose the hidden contradictions of our everyday reality in a lively yet challenging way. Franois Roche (born in 1961 in Paris) and his partner Stephanie Lavaux (born in 1966 on the Reunion Island) are radical advocates of an architecture which is to be perceived as a tool for increasing critical awareness, as a discipline which provokes thought and inspires the imagination. Their buildings and projects, which include the new art museum in Bangkok and the Glacier Museum in Switzerland, both of which would have been unthinkable without the latest IT methods of design, strive towards designs which are unique and unmistakeable in both function and appearance.

Ecological city
Presents a testimony to the work of one of the biggest agencies of French architecture, which along with a regard for the social, topographic and cultural contexts, has no other ambition than to participate in the assertion of contemporary and responsible architecture.

Innovations Durables / Appropriate Sustainabilities
Whilst France's contemporary architecture is highly regarded throughout the world, her architects have hardly been leading protagonists in the debate on ecological building. The developments featured in this book, however, should serve to correct this impression. Between 1999- 2002 Electricité de France (EDF) initiated an ambitious research programme to bring together first-class architects and innovative technologies involving renewable energy, strategies to reduce energy consumption, newly developed software programs to support ecologically oriented architectural design etc. The goal was to create sustainable and aesthetically pleasing architecture. This book documents the submissions from both established and younger architects. Amongst those included are Jacques Ferrier, Christian Hauvette, Marc Mimram and François Roche.
Canal Front
"More than just a line of buildings with a similar architectural presentation, these creations by the Atelier d'Art Urbain represent a real wasteside frontage alongside the canal in Brussels (Belgium), a frontage which recalls not only the industrial architecture of the surrounding district but also the typically eclectic style to be found throughout Brussels." "This book traces their respective courses, and is prefaced by an interview with each of the four senior partners of the architectural practice."--BOOK JACKET.

Promoteur Architecte, Une Histoire Récente. L'évolution de la Maîtrise D'ouvrage en France de 1977 À 2020
Ce livre a pour ambition de traiter du couple maître d?ouvrage/architecte et d?en retracer l?évolution ces 50 dernières années. En s?intéressant à une dizaine d?opérations actuelles emblématiques d?un dialogue réussi entre ces deux acteurs dans les métropoles de l?hexagone, le livre recueillera interviews et observations. Il décrira la transition effectuée entre commande publique et commande privée en France. De 1977 à 2020, les promoteurs privés ont changé de statut, acquis un rôle prépondérant à mesure que la commande publique, en net déclin à partir des années 2000, leur laisse de larges espaces de liberté. En ont-ils fait bon usage ? Les architectes témoignent. 0Mêlant les plumes de plusieurs auteurs, Promoteur architecte, une histoire récente, L?évolution de la maîtrise d?ouvrage en France de 1977 à 2020 est produit en collaboration par Ante Prima et Business Immo.
