Town without qualities. Both architectural typology and urban morphology claim to analyse existing towns and at the same time offer models for futur projects. However plain theory is inhabitable. The convention which links inhabitants and architects together in the appreciation of a specific work is...

De la conception architecturale biomimétique 2: Essai de modélisation à partir du cas des pavillons en bois conçus par l’ICD/ITKE à Stuttgart

Reports

Louis Vitalis (Feb 17, 2021)

This work follows a first study of biomimetic design on the case of the Beijing stadium by Herzog and de Meuron. In the continuity of this work, biomimetic architectural design is analyzed from a cognitive point of view on design activities and processes. It uses the concepts of "models" and "scales...

Engraving theories in the long term, historicizing “design projects”? The theory of architecture seems, in some respects, like a discursive field located outside of time. As Jean-Pierre Chupin reminds us: Following the example of most scientific revolutions, transformations in architectural theory a...

Emblematic sectors of the coasts of western France and peri-urban areas, vegetable production and farming are undergoing some major transformations : agribusiness integration, internationalization of markets, phytosanitary regulation, increased need for hired labor, installation outside the family-o...

Sociology of the field of earthen construction in France (1970-2020)

Victor Villain (Dec 7, 2020)

Thesis

The development of green building contributes to the legitimation of the use of construction materials that can take part in the fight against climate change. Among these materials, raw earth remains little invested in comparison with bio-based materials such as wood or straw. While the use of land...

Le BIM peut-il être un agent facilitant les démarches de développement durable dans la construction ?

Le BIM et le développement durable ont connu une evolution parallèle dans des sphères d’acteurs différentes depuis les années 70. Nous étudions les possibilités de croisement entre ces deux thématiques dans une volonté d’envisager le BIM comme agent facilitant des démarches de développement durable...

Vincent Gouezou (Mar 9, 2020)

In the field of computerized tools dedicated to architectural design, the effects of BIM on the drawings used by architects to represent their architectural projects raise questions. We are particularly studying the effect of BIM software on sketch drawing and ideation tasks in the early stages of c...

In the context of debate about how to practice research in architecture, fourteen years after the creation of the architecture PhD in France, the idea of action research would create space for project within research practice. We will study this question by comparatively clarifying the epistemic app...

This study proposes to analyze biomimetic architectural design from a cognitive point of view on design activities and processes. As a analytical framework it uses the concepts of “models” and “scales” from the architecturological theory. As a case study it focuses on the Olympic stadium 'Bird's nes...

Energy transition to sustainability :Territorial implications of three transition models and analysis of the French transition model applied to the existing residential sector

Energy transition research (TEs) to sustainability leaves unanswered the question on the true sustainability of the TEs. Within the framework of a “disagreements understanding” process, we have highlighted the differences between TEs of low and strong sustainability. Then, we assessed whether the ch...

To model the architectural design process with regard to a “reception design” : epistemological study

Thesis

Louis Vitalis (Dec 17, 2019)

Thesis

Architecture happens to be criticized for the uses it « produced » or it « forbid » (the general disapproval of the French « Grands ensembles » being one typical case). Sometimes the critic focuses fittingly on the gap between original intentions and the real effect (the « Grands Ensembles » were at...

Que peut-on faire des théories ?

In architecture, « theory » seems not to have the same meaning depending on the theory, moreover, the use one can make out of it is not predetermine by the used theory. The notion of modeling, in use in contemporary sciences to describe new research practices, will allow us to understand the transfe...

Inscrire les théories dans le temps long, historiciser le « projet » ?
