Bauplanung

Die öffentlichen Bilder und Diskurse über die jüngsten Fluchtmigrationsbewegungen lösen im Kontext des europäischen Grenzregimes eine Art moralische Panik aus. Im Gegensatz dazu plädiert Frauke Schacht für eine Denkhaltung, aus der Menschen als handelnde Personen, als Expert*innen ihres eigenen Lebens in Erscheinung treten: Eine Haltung, die nicht nur die hegemoniale Normalität dekonstruiert, sondern neue Perspektiven auf marginalisierte Geschichten, alltägliche Erfahrungen und kreative (Über-)Lebensstrategien eröffnet. Damit liefert sie eine konzeptionelle Idee für eine zukünftige Forschung zum Thema Flucht, die die Perspektive der Flüchtenden ins Zentrum stellt.

Sur la base de souvenirs d'enfance et des représentations de l'espace urbain de Buenos Aires, la ville est ici analysée en tant qu'espace vécu. Elle est lue à travers de nombreuses sources artistiques dans un contexte historique. Le sentiment que ces représentations produisent permet de saisir non seulement la manière dont la ville est perçue, mais aussi l'effet qu'elle produit, sous trois angles. Voici intégrés les aspects sensibles de la forme dans la conception architecturale et paysagère.

Wie manifestiert sich der abstrakte und oftmals unterbestimmte Begriff der menschlichen Würde in konkreten räumlichen Konstellationen - etwa öffentlichen Gebäuden oder in einem Hospiz? Die Beiträge des Bandes beleuchten interdisziplinär und dialogisch die unterschiedliche Auflösung dieses Spannungsverhältnisses zwischen Räumen und Würde. Dabei werden bewusst die formalen Schranken wissenschaftlichen Publizierens überwunden und in Form und Inhalt ein Publikum auch jenseits des universitären Umfeldes für den Themenbereich angesprochen.

Emerging forms of alternative economic frameworks are changing the structure of society, redefining the relationship between centre and periphery, and the social dynamics in the urban fabric. In this context, the arts can play a crucial role in formulating a concept of complex and plural citizenship: This economic, social and cultural paradigm has the potential to overcome the conventional isolation of the arts and culture in ivory towers, and thereby to gradually make the urban fabric more fertile. This volume faces such sensitive issues by collating contributions from various disciplines: Economists, sociologists, urbanists, architects and creative artists offer a broad and deep assessment of urban dynamics and their visions for the years to come.

Transversal Territory is a laboratory of urban, environmental, and artistic experimentation at the renowned Academy of Architecture in Mendrisio, Switzerland. It undertakes transdisciplinary and participatory research on the relationship between us, our bodies, and our built and natural environments. Its unique approach is to explore experiences of-and reflections on-urban space through performative bodywork and on-site artistic installations. This process aims at transcending the conventional paradigms of perception and the understanding of urban space, and at creating a new imagination of it-an augmented reality.Transversal Territory's innovative research is conducted in annual workshops, in which students and local residents collaborate, and subsequent public presentations of the results. This volume features 20 performances and installations realized in 2022 in Mendrisio's Rime-Brech neighborhood, a typical suburban area with its mix of industrial structures, social housing, shopping malls, fast food outlets, parking lots, wastelands, and highways. It is conceived as a map of Mendrisio that spreads across the pages to recontextualize the genius loci in book format.

Nichts dokumentiert die Veränderungen von Städten so sehr wie die Luftbildfotografie. Reimer Wulf, hoch anerkannter Luftbildfotograf aus Elmshorn, hat die städtebaulichen Entwicklungen seiner Heimatstadt in diesem Luftbildband dokumentiert. Er fängt die Entwicklung der Stadt mit all dem Mut, der Sensibilität für die geschickte Bewahrung der Stadtgeschichte, aber auch mit der Kraft der Veränderung in seinen Luftbildern ein. Mit Texten von Morten Boysen und einem Vorwort von Volker Hatje.

Densification of our cities is an imperative that inevitably brings the topic of new high-rise buildings and the addition of stories to existing buildings to the foreground of discourse. Architecture and urban design must increasingly address the issues of verticality at all stages of planning, design, and composition. Social and cultural aspects must be considered in this process as well. The French-languag book De la verticalité combines two elements: a case study on high-rise buildings in Zurich and an explorative essay on the subject of verticality in philosophy, culture, and society. Together the threads form a dual commentary that highlights the challenges posed by the transformation of our cities. Illustrated with numerous spectacular montages and visualizations designed to broaden thinking, this volume, which comes from the laboratory of acclaimed Swiss architecture firm Made in, also offers concrete proposals aimed at architects and urban planners, politicians and flâneurs alike.

Die Bedeutung von Ressourcen und ihre nachhaltige Nutzung gehört zu den zentralen Themen der Gegenwart. Diese Studie befasst sich umfassend mit der Fläche, auf der wir leben. Sie zeigt den Stellenwert und skizziert Strategien eines klimapositiven, zukunftsfähigen Umgangs durch eine haushälterische Bodennutzung. Die Forschung dazu wurde vom Schweizerischen Nationalfonds SNF gefördert und strebt nach allgemeiner Gültigkeit über die präzise untersuchten Einzelbeispiele hinaus.183 Grafiken und Diagramme zeigen analytisch historische, gegenwärtige und mögliche künftige Entwicklungen der Bodennutzung in der Schweiz. Sie werden mit konzeptuellen Modellen zu Richt- und Nutzungsplanung an den Beispielen des Kantons und der Stadt Zürich ergänzt. Diese zeigen auf, wie ein positiver Umgang mit der Ressource Boden in den kommenden Jahrzehnten aussehen müsste. Der vorliegende Band leistet damit einen wegweisenden Beitrag zu einer Thematik, die weit über den Fachkontext hinaus immer relevanter wird.

Before there were sponge cities, there were sponge parks. Brooklyn's Gowanus Canal is the site of the Sponge Park master plan and pilot projects, instigating a widespread movement toward greater urban permeability. Designed by Susannah Drake and her former Brooklyn-based firm DLANDstudio Architecture + Landscape Architecture, their execution was completed in 2016 and recognized with National AIA and ASLA Urban Design Awards as well as the inaugural Cooper Hewitt Smithsonian National Design Award for Climate Action in 2020.The Gowanus Canal was the channelized reminder of a former freshwater creek and tidal marsh. Industrial use in the 19th and 20th centuries left a legacy of heavy pollution in the soil and water. Historic industrial buildings lined the canal, so that residential neighborhoods had scarce opportunity to access the water's edge. Today's Sponge Park is conceived as a series of public urban waterfront spaces that slow, absorb, and filter dirty surface water runoff to clean contaminated canal water, reduce combined sewer overflow, and add open space in a park-starved neighborhood. Revealing the form, distribution, and size of natural ecological patterns in relation to the shape and patterns of infrastructure, neighborhoods, and political jurisdictions were among key components of the design. This book introduces the Sponge Park in great detail with photos, illustrations, plans, and diagrams. It demonstrates the concept's potential as a component of a larger vision for a new paradigm of coastal urbanism, upland adaptation, and right-of-way design in the 21st century. Sponge parks proactively address how to manage stormwater runoff from increasingly severe storm events, and reduce detrimental impacts. This work is a must-read for design students, architects, and academics as well as for elected officials, policy-makers, and community activists.

How do our cities evolve, what forces drive their evolution, and how exactly do they change as a result? Zurich-based architecture firm EM2N has been working on urban transformation processes ever since its establishment in 1997. Initially, the firm's main focus was on the greater Zurich area, yet in recent years they have also developed and realized projects in Berlin, Brussels, and Hamburg. Over time, a diverse body of work has grown, more than half of which consists of conversions of existing buildings, resulting in numerous successes and a few failures, small structures and large-scale complexes, quick decisions and slow processes. What unites the designs, projects, and texts featured in this first monograph on EM2N is a profound interest in the concept of the city as an exciting, contradictory, and above all productive space of human life that the founding partners Mathias Müller and Daniel Niggli have maintained throughout their twenty-five years of collaboration. In EM2N-City Factory they offer a self-critical review of their achievements and also speak about learning processes, personal interests, and conceptual approaches to future tasks in ever-changing cities. This is supplemented with contributions from fellow architects and friends as well as with a wealth of photographs, plans, drawings, and other illustrations.

The book discusses how division affect the fabric of cities, and people's sense of identity and agency, and are reflected in physical features, architecture, and urban planning. The question of divided cities represents a complex and multistranded urban Ecology-at once both social and spatial; it cannot be limited to a single science or discipline, such as social or spatial fields. This suggests integrated and cross- disciplinary understandings, as well as integrated or parallel approaches and solutions. Urban ecologies of division manifest in multiple forms. One of their most palpable expressions is conflict, with parallels around the world, and often with correlations in the spatial fabric. Violence in such contexts is often a surface expression of deeper socio-economic or ideological differences. Whether as a result of intervention by authority or by dissent between groups, a divided city inevitably becomes a place of conflict in various forms andintensity, eroding the joy of living and sense of collective belonging to the detriment of all. In effect, it erodes the collective advantage of being part of a more unified society.A city exists in collections of social structures which mutually form a society. A divided city implies divided social structures and, in consequence, a divided society. The papers compiled in this book present many case studies of divided cities, discussing the different causes of divisions and their effects on societies. Some of the causes can be linked to conflicts, wars, colonialism, or legislative political systems. In response to the serious challenges resulting from these divisions, the book aims to provide opportunities for new approaches and possibilities for new interventions and solutions, making it significant to urban planners, architects, and policymakers.

Die Fotografische Langzeitbeobachtung Schlieren ist ein vielbeachtetes Projekt zur Dokumentation der Siedlungsentwicklung in der Schweiz. 15 Jahre lang wurde fotografisch untersucht, wie Bautätigkeit und urbane Entwicklung den Charakter einer typischen Schweizer Vorortsgemeinde im Agglomerationsgürtel verändern. Als Beispiel diente die Stadt Schlieren im Zürcher Limmattal, deren Bevölkerung im Untersuchungszeitraum 2005-2020 von 13 000 auf 20 000 Einwohnende wuchs. 69 Standorte in ganz Schlieren sind unter identischen Bedingungen alle zwei Jahre fotografiert worden und zeigen die Veränderungen im räumlichen Zusammenspiel von Gebäuden, Strassen und Grünflächen. Parallel dazu wurden themenbezogene Serien von Detailaufnahmen erstellt, die auf einzelne Objekte fokussieren und von Aneignung, Gestaltung und Ästhetik der Lebensräume erzählen: Ladenfronten, Hauseingänge, Spielplätze, Garageneinfahrten usw. Dieses zweibändige Buch bildet nun den Abschluss der Langzeitstudie. Im Archiv-Band zeigen die jeweils acht Aufnahmen pro Standort, wie sich Schlieren an den 69 Orten in den vergangenen 15 Jahren verändert hat. Der Essay-Band bietet neben themenbezogenen Foto-Serien eine vertiefte Auseinandersetzung mit dem Studienthema durch Essays, Analysen, Interviews und Interpretationen von Fachpersonen unterschiedlicher Disziplinen. Zwischenauswertungen der Fotografischen Langzeitbeobachtung Schlieren wurden u. a. in der Neuen Zürcher Zeitung und im Tages-Anzeiger gezeigt sowie in Ausstellungen im Fotomuseum Winterthur und im Museo ICO in Madrid präsentiert. Ausgezeichnet mit dem DAM Architectural Book Award als eines der zehn besten Architekturbücher 2023.

Scarcity of resources in all forms is commonly portrayed in a negative light. Yet these conditions-which have long been a reality in many extreme climate conditions across the global South and are increasingly becoming a global reality-often stimulate an abundance of innovation, inspiration, and ingenuity. Permanence has created a climate crisis, with spaces constructed with non-degradable materials, resource extraction without active replenishment, and buildings designed for a single-eternal use. Our present reality is marked by a global pandemic, violent conflicts, and the looming threat of climate change-induced environmental disasters. Yet there remains an optimism about the creative possibilities that arise within these constraints.Field Notes on Scarcity, published in conjunction with the 2023 Sharjah Architecture Triennial, examines what scarcity truly looks like on the ground, and the challenges and opportunities it presents across architecture and design. Sixty scholars and practitioners from across the Global South-including Lesley Lokko, Yinka Shonibare, Formafantasma, Rahul Mehrotra, Olalekan Jeyifous, Abeer Seikaly, Ilze and Heinrich Wolff, Chitra Vishwanath, and Deema Assaf-contribute reflections, poems, visual essays, and dialogues exploring what scarcity represents, what it inspires, and what it reveals.

Die folgende Studie analysiert den Parc de la Trinitat, einen Stadtpark, der in eine der wichtigsten Infrastrukturen der Stadt Barcelona eingebettet ist, die Straßenkreuzung im Nordosten der Stadt, den Nus de la Trinitat. Wie der Titel andeutet, wird der Park auch zum nördlichen Eingang der Stadt und ist der Grund für diese Arbeit. Ausgehend von einer konstruierten Realität wird die historische Situation analysiert, die zu seinem Bau geführt hat, beginnend mit den Ereignissen, die zu seiner Konzeption und Gestaltung geführt haben: ein Anspruch für die Bewohner des Viertels Trinitat. Diese Studie soll ein erster Ansatz für zukünftige Forschungen über Barrieren im städtischen Raum sein.

Lo sviluppo di veicoli a tre ruote alimentati a batteria, noti come risciò elettrici, è nato in India da una rivoluzione nell'elettrificazione delle auto convenzionali dovuta all'aumento dei prezzi del carburante e alle preoccupazioni ambientali. I risciò elettrici stanno diventando sempre più popolari grazie alla loro flessibilità operativa, ai bassi costi di gestione con meno lavoro umano e all'evidente aumento della mobilità nelle aree in cui i sistemi di trasporto rapido di massa (MRTS) non sono un'opzione. Grazie alla sua affidabilità e al suo basso costo, è diventato un mezzo di trasporto inevitabile per gli utenti. Poiché è conveniente intraprendere una carriera come conducente di e-rickshaw, il settore informale sta vivendo un cambiamento nella professione. Con il numero sempre crescente di e-rickshaw, che si stanno rivelando una manna sia per gli operatori che per gli utenti, sta emergendo una serie di problemi. Sebbene gli e-rickshaw siano stati sviluppati per fornire servizi porta a porta simili a quelli dei risciò e trasporti pubblici identici a quelli degli auto-rickshaw su larga scala, la loro efficienza sta diminuendo a un ritmo allarmante. Troppi viaggi e utenti vengono rifiutati a causa delle caratteristiche operative a zone degli E-rickshaw.

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 "Advances in Engineering Science and Architectural Design" is provided to cover a wide range of topics in architecture, engineering, and technology.

Planners, environmentalists, architects, engineers, policymakers and economists have to work together to ensure that planning and development can meet our present needs without compromising the ability of future generations. This collaboration was the aim of the 12th International Conference on Sustainable Development and Planning, from which the papers in this volume originate.Problems related to development and planning, which affect rural and urban areas, are present in all regions of the world. Accelerated urbanisation has resulted in the deterioration of the environment and loss of quality of life. Urban development can also aggravate problems faced by rural areas such as forests, mountain regions and coastal areas, amongst many others. Taking into consideration the interaction between different regions and developing new methodologies for monitoring, planning and implementation of novel strategies can offer solutions mitigating environmental pollution and non-sustainable use of available resources.Energy-saving and eco-friendly building approaches have become an important part of modern development, which places special emphasis on resource optimisation. Planning has a key role to play in ensuring that these solutions, as well as new materials and processes, are incorporated in the most efficient manner.The included papers feature new academic findings and their applications in planning and development strategies, assessment tools, and decision-making processes.
