Résumé:
Construire une maison au bord de la mer est un pari très intéressant tant pour l'architecte que pour le client, car c'est une perspective qui répond au besoin fondamental de l'humanité d'être conforme à la nature. Ces conditions naturelles, défis d'architecture exaltants, forment la trame des projets présentés dans ce livre. Le souci de respecter l'environnement naturel d'un milieu aussi spectaculaire que celui-ci a conduit les professionnels à rechercher des solutions architecturales extrêmes élever la construction sur pilotis, élargir les ouvertures au maximum dans les zones à faible ensoleillement ou fermer une maison et l'envelopper sur elle-même pour la protéger de la violence des vents. Néanmoins, il en résulte essentiellement une composition fragmentée qui engendre une multitude de volumes et d'espaces externes, en quête d'une relation idéale avec l'environnement extérieur, sans nuire à l'indépendance des différentes zones qui composent le projet. Pour offrir au lecteur un large éventail de cette architecture exceptionnelle, cet ouvrage réunit une sélection de projets d'architectes renommés du monde entier, où chacun d'entre eux fait apparaître un dialogue unique entre l'architecture et la mer.

Résumé:
Modern urban terraced houses or row houses emerged in Europe from the 17th century onwards. Usually two to three storeys high and with a garden at the back, they formed the traditional urban block.

This publication analyses 100 selected examples illustrating the emergence of the terraced house and its further development in other forms of housing. The result is a broad panorama and a history of the architecture and development of the city of Brussels with its particularly heterogenous cityscape.

Résumé:
Objet de rêve, la villa balnéaire formalise une invitation au voyage où, depuis la fin du XVIIIe, architectes et entrepreneurs rivalisent d'invention et multiplient les solutions d'articulation entre l'intérieur et l'extérieur où se déroule une grande part de la vie estivale. Entre 1945 et 1980, la villégiature devient tourisme de masse et les maîtres d'oeuvre doivent s'adapter à ce changement d'échelle. Le marché de la maison individuelle et celui de la maison balnéaire dont elle n'est qu'un aspect en sont bouleversés. La créativité foisonnante qui prévaut encore dans le contexte de la Reconstruction s'essouffle devant les réalités économiques et sociologiques d'une aspiration légitime du plus grand nombre à jouir d'une petite place au soleil en bord de mer. S'appuyant sur le corpus des 12000 maisons individuelles construites entre 1945 et 1980 sur le littoral de Charente-Maritime, à Saint-Georges-de-Didonne, Royan, Ronce-les-Bains, Fouras, Châtelaillon-Plage, La Rochelle, mais aussi dans les iles d'Aix, d'Oléron ou de Ré, l'ouvrage propose, pour la première fois à l'échelle d'un département, un panorama complet de la production des maisons du littoral, des villas modernes les plus inventives à la production de maisons ordinaires qui dessinent le paysage côtier contemporain. L'ouvrage questionne les façons d'être modernes et la place qu'y occupent les architectes et les entrepreneurs concepteurs, la notion de régionalisme au moment de son abandon et de sa renaissance à l'aube des années 1980 sous la forme d'un post-modernisme vernaculaire inventif.
