Paul Bouet
Paul Bouet is lecturer at the École d’architecture de la ville & des territoires Paris-Est and PhD candidate at OCS/AUSser research lab. He holds a master of architecture (2012) and a professional postgraduate degree of architect (2013), both from the ENSA Paris-Belleville, along with a master of history of science and technology (2017) from the EHESS. Prior to joining the Éavt in 2013, he practiced architecture and urban design, while working as a journalist. At the Éavt, he teaches the history of architecture and the environment, the practice of writing, and is managing editor of the journal Marnes, documents d’architecture. He is also research assistant for Professor Jean-Louis Cohen (New York University, Collège de France) since 2015.
His work focuses on the history of XXth century architecture in its relationships to the environment. He particularly investigates research on the use of solar energy in postwar architecture, between France and its former African colonies. In that perspective, he analyzed the history of a solar heating device, the Trombe wall, in his master’s thesis supervised by Jean-Baptiste Fressoz. He is continuing this investigation for his doctoral dissertation entitled Domesticating the Sun, 1945-1986: Architecture, Solar Energy and the Environment in Postwar France, supervised by Sébastien Marot. For this research, he received a full doctoral grant from the French Ministry of Culture (2016-1018) and a doctoral grant for a fellowship at the Canadian Centre for Architecture (2019).
He has recently published: “Le mur Trombe”, in Face à la puissance. Une histoire des énergies alternatives à l’âge industriel (François Jarrige and Alexis Vrignon eds., Paris, La Découverte, 2020); “In Absence of Colonial Origins”, on the CCA platform (series “In Absence of”, 2020); and “Figurer l’énergie et le climat. Les recherches de Georges et Jeanne-Marie Alexandroff”, in Représenter: Objets, outils, processus (Pierre Chabard and Alessia de Biase eds., Paris, La Villette, 2020).
