Proto-Habitat is a transcript of conversations, visits, essays, photographs, paintings objects, and architectures exploring different cultures of dwelling as well as the associated imageries and means of production. Proto-Habitat is both a theoretical and a practical (built) experiment to explore ways of dwelling that are closer to contemporary lifestyles. The idea is to broaden collective representation to include environmentally responsible modes of existence and prioritizing conditions of habitability over questions of production. The book builds on research initially carried out at the French Academy in Rome - Villa Medici, the exhibition at arc en rêve, Collection Lambert, and Grand Hornu, and the construction of Proto-Habitat (Bordeaux, Chamonix, Clermont Ferrand), protoCAMPO (Rome), and SOLARproto (Almere). Flavien Menu is an architect whose practice combines research, building, and sustainable develop-ment.

In 2023, the new Maison de la Chine was opened as part of the Cité Internationale Universitaire de Paris (CIUP), the French capital's famous campus of student residencies founded in 1925. Designed by Beijing-based Atelier Feichang Jianzhu (Atelier FCJZ) and realized in collaboration with the French architecture firm Coldefy, the building continues the tradition of national pavilions within the CIUP. The Maison de la Chine's design bears the DNA of traditional Chinese architecture, yet Atelier FCJZ also clearly acknowledges its inspiration from Le Corbusier. This book documents the building and its design process in rich detail through sketches, drawings, plans, and photographs. Architectural historian and curator Martino Stierli places the Maison de la Chine in the context of the evolution of contemporary Chinese architecture. Yung Ho Chang and Yishi Cheng, respectively the founding partner of and project architect at Atelier FCJZ, discuss conceptual and technical aspects of the design. The volume is completed by American critic Ariel Genadt, whose essay relates the building to the site's extraordinary history and the culture within which it was created.

In its early decades, the ­Ethiopian capital, founded in 1886, witnessed a very specific form of ­architecture. At the beginning of the East African country's first ­urbanisation process, a mixture of vernacular knowledge and a new cosmopolitan mindset led to an archi­tectural type that local professionals refer to as the 'Addis ­Ababa Style': Pavilion-like buildings of different sizes, made of stone, earth, and wood, characterised by expressive pinched roofs, generous verandas with curtain walls, and a high degree of detailing. Today, those graceful, ­appropriate, and nature-based buildings are under threat of being swallowed up due to shortsighted economic interests. In cooperation with the Institute for Architecture in ­Addis Ababa (EiABC), architects of Berlin's Technical University studied this typology with regard to its embeddedness in local resources, climatic conditions, and craftsmanship. As such, they employed the ­'Addis ­Ababa House' as a case study to discuss the possibility of a non-­industrial building type that ­reflects the desire for a cosmopolitan urban life.

Das Stuttgarter Neue Schloss hat die ihm zukommende Stellung in der Kunstgeschichte noch nicht gefunden. Hierzu einen Beitrag zu leisten wurde die vorliegende Darstellung unternommen. Denn je öfter ich ihm begegnete und je mehr ich mich in Folge mit ihm beschäftigte, desto deutlicher wurde mir in ihm ein Höhepunkt der Architekturgeschichte erkennbar, der aus der Reihe vergleichbarer Schlossbauten in Qualität und Anspruch heraus ragt.Die Einsicht in die architektonische Sprache dieses Komplexes ist nicht das Ergebnis einer konzentrierten, einmaligen Bearbeitung gewesen, sondern ist aus einer Folge vieler Einzelbeobachtungen mehr und mehr als zunächst nur vage Vermutung erwachsen. Dabei kamen mehrere unerwartete Entdeckungen zusammen, die sich gegenseitig bestätigten und in dem Ganzen erst die ihm innewohnende Konsequenz sichtbar werden ließen.

With volume one winning first place the Listowel Writer's Week Nilsson Local Heritage Award, this is the second of a three-volume series on Dublin Castle and the archaeological excavations carried out there between 1961 and 1987. Volume 2 focuses on the Viking-age archaeology that pre-dates the foundation of the Anglo-Norman castle. Significant evidence for Viking-age habitation, including post-and-wattle houses, was uncovered as part of the first archaeological excavation to be carried out in Dublin, at the Cross Block in 1961-2. Further evidence of habitation was excavated at the areas of the Cork Tower and Powder Tower in 1985-7, with elements of the eastern defenses of the Viking-age town recorded within the footprint of the latter tower. The extensive collection of artifacts discovered during the excavations and the analysis of environmental samples, faunal and human remains and metalworking debris throw much light on everyday living conditions and craft activity within the Viking town. Placing the findings of these excavations within their national and international context, specialist contributions by many experts ensure that this publication contributes significantly to an understanding of early Dublin.

Synopsis: This literature proposes new ideas and innovations that consider the ultimate Beescape for Meliponaries, with bee comfort at the top of the list of considerations. Thermal comfort is a term of grave concern regarding conservation in Meliponiculture. Often enough, enthusiastic beekeepers are not overly worried about heat dissipation, especially during the summers on the fringes of the tropics. Heat waves in the tropics may leave beekeepers anxious about the stability of the colony's health and population growth. The existing colonies may see the population dwindling rather than growing. We also look at earth tremors, if not earthquakes, in the "ring of fire" zone in The Malay Archipelago and Wallacea regions. Flooding threats in Southeast Asia and Typhoons in the Oceanic Philippines are troubling. Recent reports on landslides leave affected beekeepers very distressed.Addressing these disastrous events and the potential threats is one of the aims of this book. We have scoured the region and examined how different cultures attempt to mitigate their respective regions' drastic and extreme weather. Out of these examples and data collection, we provide a gallery of designs on relevant bee housing that may impact such mitigation that may apply to the relevant type of disaster frequently faced in each region. The reader is afforded a choice of constructive possibilities depending on the availability of materials, site topography, and geography of their Meliponary location.

bogevischs buero Wohnbebauung Weinbauernstraße, MünchenEin Recht auf Luxus für jedermensch ist immer noch eine kontroverse Forderung. Selbst im heutigen Wohlstandsstaat klingt es als Parole so dekadent wie ein Recht auf Schönheit. Zwar scheint es zumeist so, wenn man in deutschen Fußgängerzonen unterwegs ist, als würden alle, von Schulkindern bis Best-Ager, im Überfluss schwelgen. Aber ein besserer Gradmesser für die Bereitschaft unserer Gesellschaft, das Besondere allen zukommen zu lassen, ist die deutsche Bau- und Sozialgesetzgebung. Sie regelt mit scharfen Linealen und Standards, was Menschen zusteht, die zum Wohnen in den immer teurer werdenden Städten Unterstützung vom Staat brauchen, also eine Sozialwohnung. Luxus ist hier faktisch ausgeschlossen, und Schönheit dadurch eigentlich auch.Dabei kann die Disziplin der Architekturpsychologie inzwischen sehr dezidiert nachweisen, dass gerade die Verwundbarsten der Gesellschaft am intensivsten auf ihre gebaute Umgebung reagieren. Starke und gesunde Menschen besitzen dagegen eine extrem hohe Toleranz gegenüber qualitätsarmer Umgebung. Deswegen müssten die Regeln des Bauens eigentlich umgekehrt sein, als sie sind. Alte, Arbeitslose und Arme, also die klassische Klientel des geförderten Wohnungsbaus, sollten viel eher von einer gut entworfenen und schönen Umwelt gestärkt werden als Menschen mit Geld und Erfolg. Aber in der bestehenden Praxis führen die Resultate des gesetzlichen Wohnprüfregimes eher zu einem Gefühl der Bestrafung bei den Nutzern und zu serieller Monotonie in Städtebau und Architektur.Deswegen ist der Dachbalkon in der Weinbauernstraße 16 in München ein Ort zum Staunen. Nicht nur, weil man hier einen exquisit urbanen Blick über den vitalen Stadtteil Giesing genießt, doppelkonfessionell gerahmt von Luther- und Heilig-Kreuz-Kirche, sondern weil diese Krönung eines Neubaus mit 19 EOF-geförderten Wohnungen den Hausrundgang mit der ungläubigen Frage beschließt, ob das hier wirklich sozialer Wohnungsbau ist? Die große Loggia im fünften Geschoss, gefasst von sienaroten Wänden, die sich farblich stimmig mit den Dachziegeln verbinden, ist eine geradezu luxuriöse Freifläche, die das loftartige Dachgeschoss im Vorderhaus atmosphärisch in den offenen Himmel vergrößert.

Research on multifamily housing and its impact on the daily lives of ordinary people, from a leading Canadian architectural firmThese four slipcased volumes build on 5468796 Architecture's housing manifesto "Add via Edit: A Decade in Housing", the symposium "platform.MIDDLE: Architecture for Housing the 99%" hosted at Illinois Institute of Technology and examples by practice-related offices.The work and research of the Winnipeg-based firm 5468796 Architecture (described as "one of the most talented young design firms worldwide") has focused on "missing middle" and midrise housing in its many forms and ownership models, from refugee and social housing to market-rate condominiums. With the condominium boom taking hold across North America, the number of residential units passing across architects' desks is unprecedented. As a result of the typology's inherent repetition and potentially banal program--as well as the private sector's pursuit of profit, often at the expense of quality and livability--the margin in which architecture can operate is very narrow. Architects must respond to the challenges of this typology with the rigor it deserves.
