Abstract

Verschillende globale uitdagingen manifesteren zich vandaag als complexe ruimtelijke vraagstukken. Ontwerp blijkt een krachtig medium om de noodzakelijke veranderingsprocessen te verbeelden, vorm te geven en zo nodig bij te sturen. Dit boek bundelt de inzichten uit de reeks rondetafels en lezingen die de initiatiefnemers van december 2016 tot februari 2017, onder de noemer 'Designing the Future', hebben gewijd aan de thema's mobiliteit, zorg, wonen, de productieve stad, open ruimte, water en het stedelijk metabolisme. Een zeer divers gezelschap van ambtenaren, academici, ontwerpers, bezielers van burgercoöperatieven, projectontwikkelaars, activisten, (sociaal) ondernemers, vertegenwoordigers van middenveldorganisaties, adviseurs, studenten en investeerders, afkomstig uit zowel België als Nederland, ging er in gesprek, op zoek naar een gedeelde agenda om samen vorm te geven aan een betere toekomst. Het boek vormt geen sluitstuk, maar een stapsteen in de ontwikkeling van een alternatieve werkomgeving. De roep naar een andersoortige praktijk, waarbij alle bestaande expertise en ervaring rond 'stad maken' kan worden gebundeld vanuit een gedeelde missie, klinkt immers steeds luider.

Abstract

Urban Grids: Handbook for Regular City Design' is the result of a five-year design research project undertaken by professor Joan Busquets and Dingliang Yang at the Harvard Graduate School of Design. The research that is the foundation for this publication emphasizes the value of open forms for city design, a publication that specifically insists that the grid has the unique capacity to absorb and channel urban transformation flexibly and productively. 'Urban Grids' analyzes cities and urban projects that utilize the grid as the main structural device for allowing rational development, and goes further to propose speculative design projects capable of suggesting new urban paradigms drawn from the grid as a design tool. Consisting of six major parts, it is divided into the following topics: 1) the atlas of grid cities, 2) grid projects through history, 3) the 20th-century dilemma, 4) the atlas of contemporary grid projects, 5) projective tools for the future, and 6) goodgrid city as an open form coping with new urban issues.

Abstract

"Since the 1960s many activists and urban professionals have contested inequalities of class, race and gender in cities around the world. Transformative Planning comes out of this movement and compiles the discussions and debates that appeared in the publications of Planners Network, an association of planners and activists based in North America. Original contributions were added to the collection so that it serves as both a reflection of past theory and practice and a challenge for activists and planners going forward."--

Abstract

Marwa al Sabouni was a little-known architect, living in battle-ravaged Homs, unable to practice her profession as the buildings and the lives around her and across Syria were reduced to rubble. Rather than flee her country, like so many of her compatriots, she remained, committed to the belief that the multilayered and multifaceted society she grew up in was worth rebuilding. She turned her fierce intelligence to chronicling how her city and country were undone through decades of architectural mismanagement and mistakes. The result was 'The Battle for Home'. Published in 2016, the book and her story attracted the attention of international news media and received critical acclaim around the world. She became a TED fellow; some suggested she be nominated for architecture's highest honour, the Pritzker Prize. Until the book was published, al Sabouni had rarely travelled outside of her native country, but 'The Battle for Home' gained her invitations to speak to audiences, institutes and experts across the world. Her travels, combined with her deep understanding of the Middle Eastern heritage and values, provided al Sabouni with insights into a wide range of cities, which informed her views on how cities best work, how they might fail, and what can be done to enrich and harmonize the lives of all their inhabitants. This is a rich journey, drawing together several narratives: her personal observations of some of the world's most fascinating cities, from Detroit to Helsinki, from Bristol to Amsterdam; the lessons that Western societies might learn from Islamic culture; and philosophical reflections, drawing on a range of thinkers, on how our personal and communal spaces can provide the basic foundations for happiness.
