Abstract

Frei Otto, architecte allemand (1925-) est connu pour à la fois son attachement à l'environnement et l'écologie et ses constructions légères et adaptables souvent en toiles tendues. Les 11 contributeurs de cette monographie privilégient ces deux approches dans leur analyse de ses idées et de son travail. Ils illustrent leurs propos avec de nombreuses reproductions des croquis et dessins de l'architecte, dont une bonne partie sont en couleur. Ces documents sont complétés par des photographies, maquettes et quelques plans de plusieurs réalisations emblématiques telles : le pavillon allemand pour l'exposition universelle de 1967 à Montréal ; le toit du stade olympique de Munich ; des maisons écologiques à Berlin ; des tentes pour l'Arabie Saoudite ; le décor de scène de la tournée des Pink Floyd en 1978 ; le projet pour la gare de Stuttgart, etc. Comprend aussi le catalogue des réalisations et projets de l'architecte de 1951 à 2004.

Abstract

"Bamboo has been used as building material for many centuries in all regions in which it grows, especially in Asia, Africa and South America. Today it is gaining in popularity also among Western architects and engineers due to its reputation of a quickly replenishing and therefore sustainable raw material. In addition, its tensile as well as compressive strength, which can compete with those of steel, stone and concrete, make bamboo a very desirable construction material. The range extends from traditional building styles and their modern interpretation to the combination of bamboo with other materials. Frequently, beyond its use for purely construction purposes it also serves as a primary design element. This volume presents contemporary projects that show the impressive versatility of its usage"--Provided by publisher.

Abstract

Since the earliest people lived as nomads, their buildings were portable, constructed in a way that allowed them to be rebuilt as they moved to new locations for better living conditions as the seasons changed. This book discusses the forerunners, present context, and technology of portable architecture. It documents numerous international examples, organized by areas of application, and offers a broad array of suggestions for practical design. In the Arts and Culture section, Shigeru Ban’s Nomadic Museum, made of shipping containers in the USA and Japan is examined, as is Mark Fisher’s event architecture for concert tours by the Rolling Stones and U2. Suggestions for flexible living include Richard Horden’s micro compact home and the Container Home Kit from LOT/EK. The design of mobile structures used in extreme situations, such as the Antarctic or in the aftermath of natural catastrophes, is explored. Exhibition and entertainment facilities are other typical areas of application for light, mobile structures. Demountable, temporary structures allow for exciting architectural experimentation which can then be prototyped for regular use.

Abstract

Face à la normalisation du mode de vie occidental, beaucoup sont séduits par une autre manière de vivre et privilégient le nomadisme à la sédentarité. Partir avec sa maison sur la route, vivre dans une roulotte, sur un bateau, dans un gonflable, construire son refuge dans les arbres, habiter au cœur même de la nature, ne sont plus aujourd'hui des rêves impossibles. Architectes, designers et constructeurs s'intéressent de près à ce phénomène et créent un nouveau type d'habitat mobile qui préfigure l'architecture du futur en proposant des solutions innovantes, en termes de miniaturisation, d'autoconstruction et de nouveaux matériaux. Maisons mobiles parcourt l'histoire de cette anarchitecture, des années 1930 à nos jours, des solutions d'urgence, liées à la guerre, aux projets visionnaires les plus audacieux, et interroge la démarche de leurs créateurs. Au fil de ce road-movie, on croisera vêtements refuges, maisons valises, villes volantes, flottantes ou sous-marines, sans oublier les multiples métamorphoses du camping-car et de la tente canadienne...
