Abstract

In "The Dutch urban block" and the public realm, Susanne Komossa uses typomorphological research to analyse the development of the Dutch urban block as an architectural model over the past four hundred years. The urban block is the link between city dwellers' everyday lives and the urban public realm. This clearly written and amply documented study calls for the small-scale urban economy and the public realm to be treated as essential components of the city when new urban plans and models are developed.

Abstract

Un artiste examine la pléthore de places d’Europe, d’Europa Places, de Places de l’Europe et d’Europaplatzes et ce qu’ils nous disent de l’idéalité de « l’Europe ». Si l’environnement bâti est un enregistrement de nos modes d’organisation et des compromis que nous faisons pour vivre ensemble, alors que devons-nous faire de la pléthore de places d’Europe, d’Europa Places, de Places de l’Europe et d’Europaplatzes ? Les espaces publics qui relient de nombreuses villes disparates à travers un « supersite » appelé Europe, ils peuvent apparaître comme des avatars d’une idée en crise, comme les « valeurs eurocentriques » et le concept de l’Europe en tant qu’espace politique unifié sont attaqués et érodés de toutes parts. Atlas Europe Square documente un corpus d’œuvres de l’artiste suisse Yves Mettler qui, depuis 2003, s’est engagé dans une cartographie et une documentation continues de ces sites, ainsi qu’une série de projets triangulant entre des places particulières, interrogeant leurs différentes fonctions architecturales, environnementales et publiques, et ce qu’ils nous disent sur l’idéalité de « l’Europe » et la (im)possibilité de son instanciation concrète.Ici, ce travail s’étend à des réflexions sur la relation entre l’art et l’espace public, la spécificité du site et l’implication de l’artiste dans l’imaginaire de l’Europe alors qu’il s’empêtre dans un réseau de projets, de fonds et d’organismes publics qui cherchent à promouvoir la culture européenne à travers l’art. contient des textes de l’artiste aux côtés d’essais de Reza Negarestani, Teresa Pullano, Laurent Thévenot et Stephen Zepke, discutant du travail de Mettler.

Abstract

Dense, organic cities with interconnected building structures and easily accessed common urban spaces. Cities that offer variety, vibrancy and architectural qualities that tempt people to go exploring on foot or by bike. Cities that have a sense of openness, make people feel safe and create opportunities for conversations in public spaces. Cities that are rooted in tradition and a respect for cultural heritage. Cities that provide meeting places in a setting conducive to cultural cohesion. Social and sensory cities.This book points to urban blocks as the structure best suited to pro­moting sustainable building developments and cities. Its first part presents some urban qualities that have evolved from the urban block as a fundamental, flexible element. These examples have been selected from European block cities as well as from old and new urban districts in Copenhagen. The second part of the book outlines the elements of the urban block city and its potential, proposing 10 principles that underpin an action-oriented platform for transforming older urban districts or planning new ones.
