Summary:
Early in Sullivan's career in the 1890s, when he emerged as a leading skyscraper architect of Chicago, his ornament gave scale and quality to his work. After 1900, as his career declined, it served to identify his buildings and the humane conception they encapsulated in an increasingly hostile cityscape. The brilliant pencil execution of ornament in his old age became a surrogate for the great architectural projects realized earlier. This extended essay on how Sullivan's ornament shaped the city is illuminated by new colour photographs by Cervin Robinson.

Autodidacte, Roland Simounet s'est d'abord fait remarquer par ses réalisations sur des terrains réputés inconstructibles en Algérie, avec des budgets a priori insuffisants. Puis se sont succédées des commandes dans tous les champs d'intervention de l'architecture. Ce livre retrace (archives et documents rares à l'appui) toute l'œuvre de Roland Simounet. Rassemblant les événements les plus marquants de sa production protéiforme, il offre un regard nouveau sur l'ensemble d'un parcours exemplaire et permet de mesurer combien son œuvre résiste au temps. Que ce soit pour son travail sur les immeubles de logements sociaux comme à Saint-Denis, ou pour ses études urbaines un peu partout dans le monde, son école de danse à Marseille, ses musées, à Nemours ou à Villeneuve-d'Ascq, Roland Simounet fut résolument moderne.
