Founded in 2008, the French-Lebanese firm of Youssef Tohme Architects and Associates has a delicate signature that takes the regional context as its starting point in developing an individual architectural language. By using a wide variety of materials that interact with the built environment, they create buildings that evolve over time alongside their inhabitants.

The book documents twelve of the firm’s projects – from a single-family home to a museum, including urban interventions in Beirut, Paris, Bordeaux, Marseille, and Bucharest. The book also includes an essay that takes a comprehensive look at the working methods of this firm, focusing in particular on the dimension of time and the changes that occur as the buildings are used.

Fondé en 2008, le cabinet Franco-Libanais Youssef Tohme Architectes et Associés part du "milieu" pour développer un langage architectural spécifique à chaque projet. En utilisant des matériaux qui interagissent avec l'environnement bâti, Youssef Tohme conçoit des bâtiments qui évoluent dans le temps, avec leurs habitants.

Ce livre documente douze des projets de l'agence – d'une maison unifamiliale à un musée, y compris des interventions urbaines à Beyrouth, Paris, Bordeaux, Marseille et Bucarest. L'ouvrage comprend également un essai (en français et en anglais) qui porte un regard sensible et analytique sur les processus de conception. Il s'attarde notamment sur la dimension géo-temporelle des lieux, sur l'importance de sentir le "présent" pour imaginer l'espace, et sur les changements qui s'opèrent au fur et à mesure de l'utilisation des bâtiments.
