Avis, propos sur l’architecture, la ville, l’environnement translates into English as 'Advice, remarks on architecture, the city, the environment', but 'Avis' can also mean 'Warning', 'Opinion' or read phonetically as 'À vie', i.e., 'For life'. The book compiles10 texts written between 2000 and 2005, classified under three themes: architecture, urban planning and sustainable development. These texts translate the author’s driving conviction in his work and his constant concern for the living. He evokes a mission that goes beyond a normalised, fixed architectural object and proposes a project that offers the essential, leaving opportunities for life, the unplanned, and a chance for architecture to enchant once again.
