Construire

 - Manfrad Hegger, Volker Auch-Schwelk, Matthias Fuchs, Thorsten Rosenkranz

Une référence solide et complète pour tous les professionnels du bâtiment


Quels matériaux de construction employer pour l’élaboration d’un bâtiment? Question cruciale pour les architectes, puisque de leur choix dépendra à la fois l’esthétique de la construction, mais aussi son usage ainsi que sa conception générale.

C’est afin d’aider les praticiens de la construction dans leur décision qu’a été conçu cet atlas. Richement illustré de plus d’un millier de dessins et photographies, il offre une mine d’informations et toutes les réponses à leurs questions: conditions générales et signification du choix des matériaux, influence sur l’usage, la construction et l’esthétique des bâtiments, qualités intrinsèques et durabilité des différents matériaux, conséquences pour leur emploi, normes essentielles et directives basées sur les nouvelles désignations EN, etc.

Cet atlas est complété de 25 exemples internationaux de construction – tant traditionnels que très novateurs – à l’esthétique particulièrement réussie, et pour lesquels le choix du matériau utilisé est justifié et expliqué dans le détail.

  • Paris

    Paris carries its history in its buildings and yet remains a perpetual site of architectural experiment. No other major city negotiates tradition and innovation quite so naturally. The book portrays a generation of architects – among them established practices such as Moussafir Architectes and Régis Roudil – who are fundamentally rethinking urban space. Large-format photographs, precise plans, and well-researched texts invite readers on an architectural tour of the city, presenting a variety of outstanding contemporary buildings that engage with the defining issues of our time: urban density, ecological responsibility, and social diversity. A multilayered picture of a city in transition – between cultural heritage and a visionary future.

  • Housing

    How can we build housing today that is genuinely affordable, socially inclusive, and sustainable? This book presents 33 best-practice projects spanning social housing, lowcost construction, and building renovation, showing how architecture can respond to the pressing challenges of our time with intelligence and responsibility. Detailed drawings at 1:20 scale give precise insights into each construction solution, complemented by floor plans and sections that enable a sound spatial and technical understanding of the buildings. Photographs and texts convey atmosphere, materiality, and architectural quality.

It presents the architects’ design intentions, their approach to both traditional and innovative materials, and the technological challenges involved. Texts, photographs, drawings, and illustrations document the buildings and reveal processes and construction details.
