Summary:
Cruise delightfully recalls a time of gracious travel, as well as the modern-day evolution of cruising at sea. It explores the design and culture of cruise ships from the golden age of the interwar period, up to the present when cruise ships have come to embrace "entertainment architecture." Packed full of illustrations of all aspects of cruise ship design—interiors, entertainment, travel posters, and other ephemera—this timely book also documents the current renaissance in cruise vacations.Traveling by cruise ship, especially between the wars and into the '50s, was the most luxurious and stylish form of transport available. Many of the greatest liners were built during that time, including France's Normandie, whose Art Deco interior was one of the most lavish—and beautiful—ever created. This up-to-date visual history of ocean travel, complete with full illustrations and a lively survey of every aspect of sailing on the high seas, will appeal to and delight a broad audience including cruise ship enthusiasts, designers, and nostalgia buffs.

Summary:
Portées par la numérisation de l’économie, par l’explosion des échanges de données, du Cloud et des objets connectés, les infrastructures numériques sont en passe de devenir l’un des plus importants postes de consommation électrique du XXIe siècle. Les centres de données se multiplient en conséquence, et se déclinent en une diversité formelle surprenante: des «boîtes» anonymes standardisées, des architectures manifestes dans des campus high-tech, des bâtiments transformés tels d’anciens bureaux ou centraux téléphoniques. Visibles ou discrets, parfois même cachés dans des souterrains ou des bunkers pour échapper à la menace climatique ou terroriste, les centres de données sont omniprésents, que ce soit dans les centres-villes, dans les zones périphériques ou dans les régions rurales, reculées et désertiques. Qu’ils saturent les réseaux électriques, qu’ils soient intégrés dans des cercles d’échanges de chaleur ou d’électricité de périmètres variables, ils redéfinissent à chaque fois le projet énergétique des espaces dans lesquels ils s’implantent.

Summary:
Offices, as a category of building, have probably faced more challenges and undergone more dramatic changes in the last few years than most other kinds of buildings. Increasing economic globalization, new information and communication technologies, and ecological considerations are all making demands on a branch of architecture which for nearly a century had been marked by the construction norms and standards, and the requirements of office organisation. These old solutions are, however, no longer viable for many modern companies, where flexibility and mobility determine the working day of a new generation of office nomads, and architecture is having to adapt. With some 70 significant international examples taken from the last five years (including examples from Norman Foster, Frank O. Gehry, Thomas Herzog, Morphosis MVRDV, Renzo Piano, SOM), the authors and editors show how the new issues facing architects can be resolved. In addition to introductory texts there are also thematic contributions by experts in various disciplines on related topics including the new models of work organisation, façade technology, climatic regulation, lighting etc. Similar to our enormously successful Floor Plan Atlas, this volume will be a crucial standard work in the design of offices.

Summary:
Un ouvrage de référence sur le processus complexe de production d’un bâtiment hospitalier : de l’élaboration du projet médical à la construction et à l’aménagement intérieur, en passant par la programmation et la conception. Rompant avec la politique des modèles, la construction hospitalière a évolué et s’est diversifiée tant d’un point de vue formel que morphologique et fonctionnel. La programmation s’est aussi généralisée et affinée, prenant en compte les besoins du personnel, l’évolution des pratiques médicales et les progrès techniques et technologiques. Sur ce dernier aspect, la robotisation croissante d’un certain nombre de gestes et d’actes médicaux a entraîné des changements importants dans l’organisation fonctionnelle et donc spatiale des bâtiments. L’incidence d’un cadre réglementaire et normatif de plus en plus contraignant est également très forte et, en corollaire, les opérations de restructuration et d’extension sont de plus en plus nombreuses.
