Abstract

Veel Nederlandse stadswijken ondergaan een ingrijpende transformatie. De blik is daarbij gericht op het gedroomde eindbeeld, hoe het straks zal worden. Maar wat gebeurt er in de tussentijd? Dit boek laat de potentie van de tussentijd zien. In de vele jaren tussen sloop en nieuwbouw groeien hele generaties op tussen dichtgetimmerde huizen; voorzieningen verdwijnen, sociale verbanden vallen uit elkaar. Daarbij kan de tussentijd ook een periode zijn met eigen kwaliteiten en potenties, een periode die vraagt om tijdelijke initiatieven die maatschappelijk en cultureel kapitaal toevoegen op een moment dat de vitaliteit van een wijk op alle fronten onder druk staat. Initiatieven die laten zien hoe het transformatieproces ook het eindbeeld kan beïnvloeden. Essays en interviews uit sociale, culturele en commerciële disciplines ontrafelen het tussentijd-denken en geven een brede variatie aan mogelijkheden voor interventie. Kunst- en ontwerpconcepten zijn een directe inspiratiebron voor concrete projecten. Door deze publicatie kan niemand in de stedelijke vernieuwing de tussentijd nog langer overslaan

Abstract

"Temporary buildings can be both interim solutions that no longer serve a purpose at a specific point in time, or projects constructed for special occasions. In all instances, they take possession of a location for a certain time, giving it a new meaning and quality. Architects who create temporary architecture have to plan the disappearance of their work from the outset. The ephemeral nature of this architecture allows architects to focus in a very specific and precise way on what is essential and make very pointed architectural statements. The concept frequently transgresses the borderlines of architecture, art, design, and social intervention, which results in a very unique form of architectural freedom. The frequently experimental nature of temporary architecture provides novel perceptions of buildings, outdoor spaces, and rooms."--Publisher description.

Abstract

As economic problems make some shy away from grandiose, long-lasting buildings, a wave of new temporary buildings and architecture is sweeping over the planet. These can have uses from emergency relief to concert or performance venues. Another fascinating area that is covered here is exhibition and fair design, a veritable treasure trove of exciting designs that come and go in the space of a week or less, to showcase fashion, jewelry, or design. Fashion shows or art displays are all part of this dynamic trend that includes some of the great names in contemporary architecture like Zaha Hadid or Rem Koolhaas, but also many architects that you have never heard of until now!Featured architects and practices include:&#13;&#13;Werner Aisslinger, Atelier Bow Wow, Aybar Mateos, Cecil Balmond, Shigeru Ban, Bernardes Jacobsen, BIG, Alberto Campo Baeza, Carmody Groarke, Santiago Cirugeda, Coop Himmelb(l)au, Diller Scofidio + Renfro, Ecosistema Urbano, Olafur Eliasson, Ammar Eloueini, Essentia, Established & Sons, Fantastic Norway, Mark Fisher, Massimiliano Fuksas, Laurent Grasso & Pascal Grasso, Zaha Hadid, Heatherwick, Institute of Computational Design, Toyo Ito, Adam Kalkin, Ken Min Architects, Koers Mulder, Adolf Krischanitz, Liu Jiakun, LOT-EK, MAPT, Miralles Tagliabue, MOS, Eric Owen Moss, NASA, Ivan Navarro, Jean Nouvel, OBRA Architects, OMA, OMD, John Pawson, Philippe Rahm, Raumlabor Berlin, Francesc Rifé, Michel Rojkind, Rotor, Tomás Saraceno, SO-IL, Tamassociati, Javier Terrados Cepeda, UNStudio, Helena Willemeit, Tokujin Yoshioka

Abstract

Many bunkers, forts, churches, castles, hospitals, water towers, post offices, prisons, palaces, and airports are empty. Vacancy Studies provides the architecture world with an optimistic perspective on the temporary reuse of vacant spaces. According to RAAAF (Rietveld Architecture Art-Affordances), there is great potential in vacant public and government buildings. At the Venice Architecture Biennale in 2010, RAAAF visualized the gigantic scale of these vacant spaces in an installation called Vacant NL. The worldwide media attention by organizations such as The New York Times, The Guardian, and The Architectural Review shows the international relevance of their vision for the new field of Vacancy Studies. Designers can make a major contribution to social issues such as vacancy, and this requires new ways of working. The field of Vacancy Studies has been further developed in the practice of RAAAF and by a multidisciplinary team at the Sandberg Institute. This book introduces the design approach of 'strategic interventions', and presents new ideas and experiments. Vacancy Studies is an indispensable reference work for anyone interested in the possibilities of vacant spaces.

Abstract

Shigeru Ban (né à Tokyo en 1957) a étudié à la SCI-Arc de Californie et obtenu son diplôme à la Cooper Union School of Architecture de New York. Installé à Tokyo et à Paris, Ban a profondément remis en cause les normes traditionnelles de l'architecture, dessinant une maison sans murs ou un espace d'exposition fait de tubes de papier et de containers de transport. Cette monographie, élaborée en collaboration avec l'architecte, retrace la carrière de Shigeru Ban et présente chacune de ses réalisations, faisant clairement apparaître pourquoi il est l'un des architectes les plus innovants et les plus importants au monde. Contrairement à bon nombre de ses pairs, Ban peut créer des demeures exceptionnelles tout en trouvant le temps de dessiner des logements provisoires pour des zones sinistrées, comme celles de Kobe ou de la Nouvelle-Orléans. Utilisant souvent le papier ou des tubes de carton comme éléments de structure, ses créations ont donné un nouveau sens à l'expression "architecte de papier". À propos de l'auteur: Philip Jodidio (né en 1954) a étudié l'histoire de l'art et l'économie à l'Université d'Harvard, et a été rédacteur en chef du magazine français Connaissance des Arts pendant plus de vingt ans. Il a publié de nombreux articles et livres sur l'architecture contemporaine, dont, chez TASCHEN, la série Architecture Now! ainsi que des monographies sur Tadao Ando, Norman Foster, Richard Meier, Jean Nouvel et Zaha Hadid. Il est un des auteurs internationaux les plus lus dans le domaine de l'architecture. http://www.taschen.com/pages/fr/catalogue/architecture/all/04945/facts.shigeru_ban_complete_works_1985_2010.htm (19/08/10)
