Traité pratique de menuiserie.Date de l'édition originale: 1911On sait peu de choses d'Étienne Barberot, si ce n'est qu'il était membre de la Société centrale des architectes, profession qu'il a par ailleurs exercée. On lui doit à ce titre un certain nombre d'ouvrages traitant d'architecture, notamment un Traité pratique de la législation du bâtiment et des usines, mais aussi un Traité pratique de charpente, auquel on peut ajouter ce Traité pratique de menuiserie.Publié en 1911, l'ouvrage est richement agrémenté de plus de huit cents illustrations dessinées par l'auteur lui-même et dont la fi nesse et la précision ne laissent aucun doute quant à la maîtrise et la connaissance qu'Étienne Barberot a de cet artisanat. Passionné, il aborde la menuiserie en esthète, car pour lui « un ouvrier est un artiste quand il apporte dans l'exercice de son métier [...] un goût qui lui est propre et l'incite à chercher à faire bien, à faire beau, à créer de nouvelles formes ou à grouper harmonieusement celles déjà créées par d'autres '.Guide complet qui expose dans le détail ce que l'on doit savoir pour pratiquerla menuiserie, cet ouvrage s'adresse aussi bien aux profanes qu'aux professionnels aguerris. Sont abordés aussi bien les bois employés en menuiserie que les différents types d'assemblages indispensables à connaitre, la réalisation de portes, de fenêtres, de volets, de contrevents, de balustrades, de moulures, de parquets, etc. Si les outils et les matériaux ont considérablement évolué depuis la parution de ce livre, il n'en demeure pas moins une référence: plus qu'un simple traité pratique, il appartient à ces livres que l'on se plaît à consulter tant ils sont riches en informations, et plus que tout, sources d'inspiration.Ce livre, réimprimé en fac-similé par Hachette-BnF, est identique à la publicationoriginale de 1911 conservée à la Bibliothèque nationale de France.

This unique, visually exciting look at the evolution of nightclubs across America and Europe since the 1960s reveals an unwavering truth about club culture-the one constant is change. Opening with the psychedelic haunts of the 1960s New York pop art scene and closing more than half a century later with the rise of post-club happenings, "Temporary Pleasure" shows how nightlife spaces have evolved to meet the needs of their generation, and how each generation was seeking something a little different from the one before. Each chapter focuses on a distinct phase and location: Italy's politically radical clubs of the '60s; New York City's disco scene; Detroit and Chicago's techno and house paradises; Ibiza's counterculture communal retreats; Britain's rave culture; and Berlin's techno scene. The clubs come to life in double-page spreads that feature specs and detailed profiles. Author John Leo Gillen offers his take on various important cultural, design, and architectural details, while numerous photographs offer their own vibey stories. The book features interviews with people who were involved in a number of the scenes included, from NYC disco mainstay DJ Justin Strauss to Ben Kelly, architect of Manchester's legendary venue The Haçienda. As the world emerges from its Covid-induced isolation, this celebration of crowded rooms, dance-worthy beats, and communal transcendence feels more important than ever.

Anglophiles, armchair tourists, and lovers of grand interiors will relish the photographs of these wonderful buildings, while discovering more about the designers and architects who built them, charting the evolution that has made British style so alluring, enduring, and widely imitated over the centuries.
You've seen their work-but have you seen them? Black designers have been working in every major industry but, for the past decades, have not been given the spotlight anywhere near to the extent of their white counterparts. This vibrant and wide-ranging book, full of photographs and illustrations, aims to correct that oversight, bringing a century of Black designers and their work into focus. Organized into three sections focusing on Fashion, Architecture and Graphic Design, Prempeh uses the pioneering work of key figures from the twentieth and twenty-first century to explore important aspects of how Black design has been perceived within culture and society. From the necessity of the side-hustle, to interrogating the value placed on Black design, from reclaiming traditions, to exploring how design can be a form of protest, this book brings to the fore the stories of figures such as Ann Lowe, Dapper Dan, Norma Sklarek, Francis Kéré, Emory Douglas and Liz Montague to unpick what it means to be a Black designer.
