L’Architecture sous pression. Expérimentations techniques ou architectures sous-marines, du commandant J.‑Y. Cousteau à l’architecte J. Rougerie (1960-1980)

In this article, we analyze a specific and extreme type of hyper-conditioned space in a hyper-constrained environment: the underwater houses designed and developed during the 1960-1980s. The first part presents several programs from this period, pioneering technoscientific experiments by Jacques-Yve...

description In this article, we analyze a specific and extreme type of hyper-conditioned space in a hyper-constrained environment: the underwater houses designed and developed during the 1960-1980s. The first part presents several programs from this period, pioneering technoscientific experiments by Jacques-Yves Cousteau (1962-1965), and architectural research works by Jacques Rougerie (1977-1982). The second part highlights how these underwater habitats, subjected to strong pressures, will progressively move away from the technical issues to develop more architectural solutions. Finally, the last part examines the developments of a real underwater architecture that opens these hyper-conditioned spaces on the underwater environment to experience it fully.
