Summary:
Depuis des siècles, l'architecture fait l'objet de très nombreux débats impliquant non seulement les architectes et les usagers des édifices qu'ils construisent, mais également critiques, théoriciens, historiens et écrivains. Choisir l'architecture se propose d'ouvrir une large fenêtre sur ces réflexions au sein du monde occidental à travers quatre trajectoires thématiques axées sur le logement, la société, l'histoire et l'art. Chacun de ces parcours prend sa source au XIXe siècle, traverse le XXe siècle et s'achève aussi près que possible du temps présent. Les essais, articles de journaux ou de magazines, livres ou extraits de livres qui forment les briques de cette construction narrative sont tous soigneusement interrogés, illustrés, comparés, analysés et critiqués. L'objectif de cet ouvrage est de démontrer que l'architecture demeure un sujet d'étude essentiel pour quiconque s'intéresse au monde actuel et à son histoire récente. Lecture, prise d'informations et réflexion forment des préalables nécessaires à toute prise de décision concrète, en particulier dans le domaine de l'architecture. Les écrits réunis dans ce livre s'apparentent à des perles de connaissance enfilées sur une cordelette jusqu'à former une sorte de collier, un talisman permettant de mieux faire face à la condition présente.

Le Rolex Learning Center de l’EPFL à Lausanne a ouvert ses portes en 2010. Conçu par le bureau japonais SANAA (Kazuyo Sejima et Ryue Nishizawa), lauréats du Pritzker Prize, il est rapidement devenu l’un des bâtiments les plus connus des temps récents. Dans ce livre – une nouvelle d’architecture – l’histoire variée de cette pièce d’architecture est racontée, à partir de nombreux points de vue, avec des rebondissements assez inattendus, et accompagnée d’images insolites. Le Rolex Learning Center apparaît non seulement comme une réalisation architecturale remarquable, mais aussi comme un bâtiment qui contient des connaissances, et qui peut nous parler de diverses manières.
