Résumé anglais Aesthetics, architecture and the mountain environment : new tools, new symbols This attempt to reassess the relations between architecture, society and environment has come out of the construction of new buildings for livestock in a touristic zone protected under the French law on historical monuments. In this experimental research action project, the decision to link theory and practice (and thus break the narrow relationship usually established between aesthetics, nature and nostalgia) had to do with the idea that modernity does not necessarily break with the past. Two notions that shaped this analysis (integrated local development and architecture's aesthetic dimension) were defined by their capacity for taking into account a place, society and history. As operational concepts, they could be used to link "development" with "protection" so as to avoid the "conservationist" approach, which often shapes issues and perceptions of the mountain environment.
