Summary:
Qu'est-ce qui préside à la définition de la forme d'un bâtiment, selon quelles modalités est-elle conçue, quels principes engage-t-elle, quelles régles convoque ou produit-elles? Ces questions sont posées par toute investigation théorique concernant l'architecture. Et, une nouvelle fois, elles sont celles auxquelles les contributions de cette septième livraison de "Matières" tentent de répondre, ou plutôt tentent d'apporter plusieurs réponses car les problématiques des auteurs sont différentes les unes des autres, tout comme sont divers les bâtiments, les projets ou les thèmes auxquels ils s'intéressent. Les réponses se rejoignent cependant sur de nombreux points, à partir desquels il est possible de dessiner la trame de réflexions communes.

Summary:
Diener & Diener Architects, based in Basel and Berlin, is one of Switzerland’s leading architecture firms. Over the past forty years, it has maintained a consistent focus on residential architecture. Even before the foundation of Diener & Diener Architects proper, Roger Diener’s father, Marcus Diener, laid the roots for the firm’s specialization on housing, and today, Diener & Diener is known for designs in this field with sparingly used simple patterns, typologies, and materials. ''Diener & Diener Architects : housing'' discusses thirty designs exemplifying the firm’s philosophy—a philosophy that considers the individual urban contexts for each building structure. The book features photographs, floor and site plans, as well as images and plans from the firm’s archive. Drawing also on Roger Diener’s collected lectures, the texts investigate Diener & Diener’s own typological design process, which serves as the foundation for each project. By so doing, they give insight into Diener & Diener’s long-standing success and their significance in the field of contemporary housing architecture.

Summary:
The development of Swiss architecture over the past thirty years can be interpreted as a sequence of "moments" against the background of different geographical, cultural and linguistic zones. One such "moment" is the work of the 40-year-old Genevan architect Andrea Bassi. Raised in the Ticino and educated in Lugano and Geneva, his work already evidences some unmistakable characteristics, whereby he derives his powerful reduced forms from the site of the building. Martin Steinmann, a well-known architectural critic and teacher at the EPF Lausanne, analyses some of the aspect in Andrea Bassi's architecture. Five buildings and projects are presented in short texts, plans and photographs.
