As an urban historian & photographer, I try to peel back the layers of a city to see what's underneath. From the tops of bridges to the depths of sewer tunnels, these explorations of the urban environment help me puzzle together the interconnected, multi-dimensional history and complexity of the world's great cities.

Exactly a century ago, the brand new Paris (an incredible amount of so called "hausmanien" buildings have been built from 1900 to 1910) was flooded of 8 meters (around 30 feet) above the normal level of the Seine river. During one week, Parisians had to adapted their way of experiencing the city and even for an important amount of them, moved out and gathered in shelters all over the city.
This kind of flood is supposed to happen once every century, therefore this 100th anniversary is not a simple commemoration, but almost a prophecy of what will probably occur in the coming years.

Cook + Fox’s Live Work Home is a flexible residence designed for the "new, urban context" in which living and working can walk hand in hand. Architects and contractors like to congratulate themselves for designing sustainable housing out of goodies like solar panels and low-flush toilets and the occasional green roof. Noble stuff. But take away the green bling--an all-but inevitability as homes change hands over the years--and your building is probably just as wasteful as any other.

La creciente concentración de población y el peso específico de las ciudades dentro del contexto global ha hecho que se dediquen muchos esfuerzos en poner a las ciudades a la altura de las circunstancias. Si a esto unimos el imaginario productivista que nos impulsa a seguir creciendo y una permanente y extraña afición humana a los rankings, podemos explicar la voluntad de varias ciudades y regiones por querer figurar en el listado de urbes punteras: sean Sostenibles, Creativas o Inteligentes.

Considéré il y a encore à peine dix ans comme un des quartiers les plus dangereux de New York, Brooklyn ressemble plus aujourd’hui à une galerie à ciel ouvert qu’à un décor de film noir. Ici, les rues sont hantées par de jeunes artistes et des chanteuses indieen manteaux de fourrure. Si vous passez à New York, prenez le temps de traverser l’East River pour entrer dans un tourbillon de folie à Brooklyn

Transformez votre téléphone portable en capteur environnemental et participez à l'observation de la pollution sonore La pollution sonore est un problème majeur dans nos villes. NoiseTube est un projet scientifique fondé sur une nouvelle approche participative d'observation de la pollution sonore impliquant le public. Le but est d'étendre l'usage actuel du téléphone portable en le transformant en capteur de bruit donnant la possibilité à chaque citoyen de mesurer son niveau d'exposition sonore dans son environnement quotidien. Il pourra aussi contribuer à la création d'une cartographie collective de la pollution en partageant automatiquement ses measures géolocalisées avec la communauté. En installant notre logiciel (gratuit) sur votre portable équipé d'un GPS, vous pourrez mesurer votre propre niveau sonore en décibels dB(A) (avec une précision inférieure à celle d'un sonomètre), et contribuer à la cartographie du bruit dans votre ville en annotant et envoyer automatiquement vos measures par internet(GPRS).

In just eight short months, London will kick off the 2012 Summer Olympic Games. Like every city on the eve of hosting a major world event, London has been unveiling building after new building from stadiums to restaurants. The shiny new Queen Elizabeth Olympic park is almost finished, which almost all of the main buildings finished on time, and includes Zaha Hadid’s Aquatics Center. On top of a turf field over looking the rest of the campus is the new London Velodrome, one of the four permanent fixtures of the park.
