Byplanlægning: arkitektoniske aspekter

This book discusses the way to design and plan for regenerative cities and landscapes. Where sustainability aims to safeguard the resources for future generations, and the resilience concept focuses on dealing with shocks to keep the system functioning, regeneration aims to give back more than it takes from the system. This principle is often used in analytical and assessment literature, but not yet elaborated in a spatial planning and design context, which this book does. It offers insights from a range of perspectives, spatial scales, such as the country level, neighbourhood public space, streets and the building levels, scientific fields and continents, amongst which Africa, Oceania, and Europe.

Wer nach Vorbildern für eine gelungene Wohnbaupolitik sucht, landet über kurz oder lang im "RotenWien". Sein Mythos ist ungebrochen und verdankt sich der fortwirkenden politischen Einsicht derWiener Kommune, dass Wohnen eine gesellschaftliche Aufgabe ist und nicht allein dem Marktüberlassen werden darf. Im Laufe eines bewegten Jahrhunderts hat die Wiener Wohnbaupolitiktrotz dieses Grundkonsenses viele Häutungen und Wandlungen durchlaufen und ist dabei durch-aus auch marktförmiger geworden. Doch zwei entscheidende Dinge hat sie nie aus dem Blickverloren: die Notwendigkeit des Aufbaus und Unterhalts eines Wohnraumbestands und seiner dau-erhaften sozialen Bindung sowie die Bodenbevorratung. Vor diesem Hintergrund und angesichtsdes enormen Bevölkerungswachstums in der österreichischen Hauptstadt, mit dem aktuell einerege Bau- und Entwicklungstätigkeit einhergeht, wird in dieser Publikation am Beispiel Wien derStatus quo des Wohnbaus thematisiert. Wenn heute Wohnraum bauen, dann wie? Entsprechenmonofunktionale Typologien und die funktional-räumliche Trennung von Leben und Arbeitennoch unseren Lebensrealitäten? Wie sozial ist sozialer Wohnungsbau?ARCH+ ist die führende diskursive Zeitschrift für Architektur und Urbanismus im deutschsprachi-gen Raum.

English edition with Greek abstracts / Englische Ausgabe mit griechischen Abstracts Taking Action brings into focus the sustainable design of urban transformation and the preparation of densely-structured urban spaces for future challenges. How can climate change and spatial inequalities be tackled under crisis conditions and in view of limited spatial and other resources? How can we relate our ambitious and broadly defined goals to the reality of local conditions and everyday spaces? How can knowledge be translated into action? While basic spatial relations are currently being renegotiated in cities throughout Europe, it is in Athens that some of the most pressing urban problems have been crystallized in order to establish unique spaces of experimentation. Approaching these multi-dimensional questions from different perspectives, the authors seek to identify possible sites of intervention, suggest new models of transformation, and unleash the potential in urban landscapes as a means of stimulating positive urban change.

Wenige Länder geben ihrer Bevölkerung ein so weitreichendes demokratisches Mitbestimmungsrecht in Fragen von Architektur und Städtebau wie die Schweiz. Dies ermöglicht einerseits eine weltweit einzigartige gesellschaftlich ratifizierte Architektur, andererseits werden fortwährend Projekte verhindert, darunter auch sehr bemerkenswerte. Die oft mit viel Herzblut entwickelten, schliesslich jedoch nicht ausgeführten Werke gehören zum Alltag jedes noch so erfolgsverwöhnten Architekturbüros. Ob verloren, verneint, versackt oder verändert: Es gibt eine Unzahl an Architekturentwürfen, die in der Schweiz noch heute von sich reden machen, obwohl sie nie realisiert wurden. Für Was wäre wenn hat das S AM im Dialog mit 25 Architekturinstitutionen aus allen Landesteilen eine repräsentative Auswahl aus diesem schier unendlichen Projektfundus getroffen. So entsteht eine überaus anregende Alternativschweiz, die nicht nur zurück-, sondern auch mutig nach vorne blicken lässt.

A multipronged study of Africa's innovative approaches to communal living in the face of climate change and urbanizationThis volume presents essays, stories, research and photographs showing how African cities by waterfronts deal with two of the most significant trends of our time: urbanization and a changing climate. On the African continent, the impact of climate change is now an everyday reality. Coastal and waterfront cities in particular experience loss and damage due to significant increases in sea level rise, rainfall and flooding. At the same time, Africa is the second most rapidly urbanizing continent (after Asia). The intersections between water and cities are therefore critical for understanding the future of urban and rural developments in Africa. Through deeper understanding of the innovative and resourceful way of life of informal water communities such as Makoko and coastal cities such as Abidjan, African Water Cities reveals key factors, challenges and opportunities shaping human, physical and economic dynamics.

Two decades of work from a sustainability-minded Peruvian architectural firmThis substantial paperback monograph chronicles 20 years of projects from Peruvian architectural studio Poggione+Biondi, helmed by René Poggione and Susel Biondi. Compiling a selection of their projects through photographic documentation and drawings, it also features texts by Zaida Muxí and Josep Maria Montaner that narrate the process and evolution of Poggione+Biondi's architecture.Among the firm's acclaimed buildings are a hotel in Miraflores; the Campo Oeste House in Cieneguilla; and the Verdea apartments in Miraflores. In these buildings, as in all of their projects--from universities to parks and landscape works--sustainable materials and integration of natural materials are prominent features.

Lectures on landscaping, history and ecology from the peerless landscape architect who revolutionized the garden aesthetic The great landscape architect Roberto Burle Marx (1909-94) revolutionized tropical garden aesthetics for the 20th century, and today his designs for parks and gardens are celebrated across the world. Marx's innovations can be summarized, as author Rossana Vaccarino observes, "in four general design concepts--the use of native tropical vegetation as a structural element of design, the rupture of symmetrical patterns in the conception of open spaces, the colorful treatment of pavements and the use of free forms in water features."Intangible Heritage presents both Marx's work and teachings, compiling nine of his most seminal lectures written between 1962 and 1983. Illustrated with images of his mosaics and detailed maps, the volume groups Marx's lectures into three thematic sections: in the first, he explores how botanical expeditions, such as his trip to the Amazonas in 1983, informed his thinking about urban landscapes; in the second, Marx traces facets of landscape architecture to their ancestral origins and discusses the role of subjectivity in the profession; in the third, he delves into society's responsibility to protect the environment. The publication also features texts from Marx's collaborators and admirers, including an essay by José Tabacow, partner of Marx in his last projects, and conversations with art critic Jacques Leenhardt.

Harnessing large urban housing estates in former socialist countries as a resource for the future housing supply requires innovative and practicable strategies and concepts. What are the challenges to be overcome? How can the often mono-structural estates be altered, and how can spatial and cultural identities be reinforced? Which role does the community play in these former socialist neighborhoods? The contributors to this volume present perspectives from different disciplines, both in academia and practice. The exchange of international experiences creates the base for further debate and learning and provides insight into the multiplicity of challenges and approaches today.

This book is a compilation of diverse, yet homogenic, research papers that discuss current advances in Earth Observation and Geospatial Information Technologies to tackle new horizons concerning the digitization and information management in smart cities¿ infrastructures. The book also tackles the challenges faced by urban planners by the new mega-cities and proposes a series of solutions to resolve complex urban issues. It suggests enhancing the integration of disciplines, thus, bringing together architects, urban planners, civil engineers, landscape designers and computer scientists to address the problems that our cities are facing. This book is a culmination of selected research papers from IEREK¿s fourth edition of the International Conference on Future Smart Cities (FSC) and the fourth edition of the International Conference on Resilient and Responsible Architecture and Urbanism (RRAU) held online in collaboration with the XMUM, Selangor, Malaysia (2021).

This book examines a range of subjects with a specific focus on architectural and technological advancements. Architecture is the constant innovation in designing for high efficiency in the performance of buildings, in terms of planning, construction and energy, while maintaining creativity in its form. Moreover, the field of architecture goes hand in hand with that of technology. Nowadays, engineering technology has to cope with the rapid industrialization and urbanization seen in most countries. Furthermore, creative design and construction practices are challenging tasks to the architects and engineers to meet the ever-growing demands of society. Therefore, this book on "e;Advances in Engineering Science and Architectural Design"e; is provided to cover a wide range of topics in architecture, engineering, and technology.

The architect Andrea Palladio was a draughtsman and a designer, a mason and an engineer, an innovator and an image maker. His growing importance from the 16th century onwards was based on his profound expertise in architectural issues that went beyond singular tasks and situations, and beyond his particular moment in history. His way of thinking and solving architectural problems proved invaluable for centuries to come. The contributions to this volume reflect on Palladio's method(s) beyond historism and style, and thus provide insights into design and building in our time.

Under the premise that architecture makes life >bettersolution< to social problems, made >green< when promising sustainable futures, or fetishised as a cultural object for the creation of urban identities. Yet what is it exactly that links architecture so closely to the pursuit of a good life? How is this link interrelated with crisis and crisis thinking? To what extent do belief systems in architecture influence its capacity to deal with crises? Carolina Crijns not only explores the transformative potential in radically rethinking architecture's central concepts but introduces a method of utopian speculation for practices ambitious of social change.With a preface by Sabine Knierbein.

Broadening the global perspective is high on the agenda for the current study of urban history. It is widely accepted in contemporary Japanese urban history that the prototype of the modern city was formed in the decades between the 1900s and the 1930s, when, against the background of accelerating urbanisation, the ideas of modernity in terms of regularity, functionality and rationality contributed to the establishment of mass culture and ultimately to social mobilisation for 'total war'. These views coincide with those of European urban history.In order to understand this coincidence, the volume is divided into three parts: 1. Surveys of mutual historiographical perceptions, 2. Case studies of urban architecture, the garden city concept, concepts of urban disaster prevention, infrastructure building and organised urban leisure, 3. Observations from the perspective of European urban history. The combination will not only elucidate the process of making the 20th century Japanese city, but also help the reader to rethink the modern European city in a global context.

Cities, Citizens and Environmental Reform tells a story of community involvement in the development of Australian town planning from the early 20th century - from the first wave of enthusiasm for modern town planning ideals before the Great War onto the more challenging social and political environment for the original town planning associations in the post-Second World War era.Meticulously researched and peppered with archival illustrations, the book reveals common threads and local differences in community planning movements across the nation and contributes to our understanding of modern urban planning in Australia.

Raum ist ein mehrdeutiger und gelegentlich umstrittener Begriff. Raumordnung beruht auf einem empfindlichen und veränderlichen gesellschaftlichen Gleichgewicht, das sich in den Rechtsgrundlagen und der alltäglichen Umsetzung widerspiegelt. In diesem essential werden Ansätze aus der Phänomenologie zur Einordnung der verschiedenen Raumbegriffe genutzt.

The Emergence of Bangladesh analyses and celebrates the first 50 years of Bangladesh as a nation, bringing insights from key scholars in Bangladeshi studies to an international audience, as well as ¿bringing home¿ to a domestic audience the work of some of the nation¿s greatest intellectual exports, the Bangladeshi scholars who have made a mark in their field of study in academia. The book offers unique coverage of the battlegrounds on which the founding of the new nation was fought, including language, power and religion, and provides unique insight into some of the hot spots that continue to shape the development of the nation: the issues of gender, culture, ethnicity, governance, the economy and the army. Those with an interest in understanding the past or present Bangladesh will find this a trove of frank and readable analysis.

"Prishtina in 53 Buildings" draws a multifaceted portrait of Kosovo's capital city by using architecture as a prism to understand political, cultural and economic processes. Essays on fifty-three built structures, written by different authors with different geographical background and different professional perspective, add up to multilayered account of the city's history and present. The texts include architectural analyses, political reflections, ethnographic observations and personal memories. Taken together, however, they allow for an understanding of the ambiguous and conflicting processes that are propelling urban development not only in Prishtina. The texts are supplemented by pictures and a visual essay by Italian photographer Filippo Romano."Prishtina in 53 Buildings" is more than a guide book for visitors or residents of the city. Buildings are not only the materialization of design principles or architectonic ideas, but the outcome of socio-economic processes. The built environment is constantly re-appropriated, re-interpreted and re-valuated as architects do not have the final say as to the meaning and the function of an edifice. By conceptualizing architecture as materialization of societal processes, "Prishtina in 53 Buildings" pushes beyond notions that assume an intrinsic and coherent 'logic' of cities. The editors Donika Luzhnica and Jonas König show that a polyphonic approach is more apposite to depict the often-contradictory trajectories of urban development. What holds true for cities in general, is in particular applicable for post-conflict cities like Prishtina. EditorsDonika Luzhnica is an architect based in Zurich and Prishtina, where she co-founded Ars Atelie. Her award-winning research on the reactivation of Gërmia, a former department store in Prishtina, was featured at Architecture Biennale 2021 in Venice. She was a guest editor of a special feature of the German architecture magazine Bauwelt on Prishtina's urban development and architecture. She currently works with CH Architekten in Zurich. Jonas König is a researcher at the Institute of Urban and Regional Planning at Technical University Berlin. He was a guest editor of two special features of the architecture magazine Bauwelt on architecture in Albania (2019) and Prishtina (2022) and has published in journals such as City, Kajet, Monu, and dérive on urban development issues in Southeast Europe.PhotographerFilippo Romano is a documentary and architecture photographer. Filippo Romano's work has been exhibited internationally, among others, at the Biennale of Architecture in Venice 2010 and 2021. Also, he has published several books and has been featured in media outlets such as Abitare, Dwell, Domus, Io Donna, Courrier International, Huffington Post, and Newsweek.

The Urban Fantastic in Nineteenth-Century European Literature explores transnational perspectives of modern city life in Europe by engaging with the fantastic tropes and metaphors used by writers of short fiction. Focusing on the literary city and literary representations of urban experience throughout the nineteenth century, the works discussed incorporate supernatural occurrences in a European city and the supernatural of these stories stems from and belongs to the city. The argument is structured around three primary themes. ¿Architectures¿, ¿Encounters¿ and ¿Rhythms¿ make reference to three axes of city life: material space, human encounters, and movement. This thematic approach highlights cultural continuities and thus supports the use of the label of ¿urban fantastic¿ within and across the European traditions studied here.

The question of what heritage is and how we deal with it is not a neutral one. Recent events such as the Black Lives Matter movement and the toppling of monuments have made evident how much the colonial past is inscribed in our built environment; at the same time, colonialism affects memorialization and historiography. Hence, those involved in architectural history are challenged to re-consider their positionality. Whose heritage are colonial sites? Which conflicting memories are attached to them? How are archives and material evidence reassessed to bring forward the stories of marginalized subjects? Following the call for decolonization, this volume explores historical methodologies and shows the entanglement of narratives at architectural sites, bringing together archaeology, architectural history, and heritage studies. A contribution to the current debate on decolonization and memorialization Interdisciplinary perspectives on architecture and heritage International range of authors

This is a groundbreaking study of the design and history of Olmsted's most mature expression of urban park design, which after WWI fell into drastic decline. Historians fault the design as obsolete, a casualty of changing trends in public recreation. Carr disagrees, offering a persuasive argument that the decline was a consequence of the city's lack of stewardship, an example of institutionalized racism. Hilderbrand's afterword describes the current Action Plan, a comprehensive community-based initiative to galvanize revitalization.

2017 hat die Stadt Würzburg ihr erstes Baugruppenprojekt auf den Weg gebracht. Von den Münchner Projektsteuerungsspezialisten für Baugruppen, Plan Z, wurde bogevischs buero mit dem Entwurf beauftragt. Für 16 Wohnungen mit 14 Familien und 18 Kindern entstand eine Zwillingsarchitektur. Zwei quadratische Gebäude, die durch Loggien und Dachterrassen kubistische Körperlichkeit gewinnen, stehen sich gegenüber. Die Holzfassaden mit verschiedenen Fenstergrößen auf hellem Betonsockel vermitteln nach Außen, wie dieser Hybrid innen organisiert ist. Ein Treppenhauskern aus Stahlbeton trägt die Massivholz-Konstruktion der Wohnungen in 16 verschiedene Grundrisse. Ein Gemeinschaftsraum am Hof zeugt von der kommunikativen Idee der Baugruppentradition, dass ihre Mitglieder nicht nur persönliche Interessen nach günstigem Wohneigentum verfolgen, sondern auch in Nachbarschaftlichkeit investieren. In der Parkstadt Schawbing zeigt ein anderes Projekt von bogevischs buero, dass auch in der Idee der Baugenossenschaft noch jener schöne Gedanke zu Verwirklichung strebt, Mieter nicht als scheue Rehe, sondern als kontaktfreudige Sozialwesen zu behandeln. Das von dem Münchner Beamtenwohnungsverein errichtete Eckgebäude besitzt mehrere Optionen, um Hausgemeinschaft zu fördern. Hinter einer Glaswürfelwand befindet sich ein großer Gemeinschaftsraum. Davor liegt eine Spielfläche mit einer Toberampe über der Tiefgarageneinfahrt. Und auf dem Dach wurde eine Gemeinschaftsterrasse mit Küche, Holzbänken und Kastenbeeten eingeschnitten. Viele Details, von den Moiré-erzeugenden Lochblechen vor den Fenstern über das Farbkonzept bis zu dem wertigen Bodenbelag aus Kalkstein belegen, dass auch genossenschaftliches Bauen zu schönem Wohnen bei erschwinglichen Mietpreisen führt, wenn es mit klugen Designentscheidungen geplant wird.

Image Cities takes us on a journey through cities the Globalization and World Cities Research Network ranks highest according to their degree of "global interconnectedness." We find them in a process of transformation concealed behind dummy façades onto which a sense of heightened anticipation has been projected. It would be tempting to read these photographs as a polemic against the triumph of consumerism and a slowly numbing global visual-economic order that wraps itself around whatever once felt local and civic. Samoylova's photography is full of masterful refinements of the existing clichés of urban photography: Citizens dwarfed by giant images. Faces and bodies refracted through glass. The Pop-Cubism of visual bricolage. The minuscule human figures that stroll seemingly indifferent through city space while being at least partly somewhere else in their imaginations¿ their existence already a collage of places and times. Yet, Samoylova consciously engages with cliché, takes it apart and reassembles it, gambling that it can be taken to a level of pictorial sophistication that eludes any simple argument or statement. Instead, she invites us to reflect on photography's role in the creation of a gap between these citie's brand identity and their everyday reality.ANASTASIA SAMOYLOVA (*1984) grew up in Moscow. In 2008 she moved to the United States, where she graduated with a master's degree in Interdisciplinary Art from Bradley University, Illinois. Her work explores the tension between the staged perception of a bombastic materialism and reality. Living and working in Miami, Florida has become the backdrop for her combination of collage-like details with the genre of the road trip. Her recent series Flood Zones and Floridas have received great critical acclaim.
