Abstract

New insights on the controversial and often-overlooked postwar large-scale housing estates.In the light of the current housing and environmental crisis and increasing social inequalities, there is a growing sense of urgency for architecture as a discipline to engage with the transformation in housing evident in the postwar period. Rather than conceiving this task as a technical matter, this book proposes to reassess the conditions and legacy of this large and ubiquitous housing stock. By foregrounding the mismatch between constructed cultural, social and ideological narratives and the everyday realities of residents, the contributors rediscover some of the tropes of modern housing, such as the impact of technological innovations or the often overlooked character of open spaces, and unveil the intellectual and practical tools that paved the way for this large-scale construction.Contested Legacies advances a new notion of heritage which, rather than seeking to preserve the past, sets outs to actively transform what exists to meet current societal needs. It offers an 'atlas' of exemplary cases, each illustrating a defining yet often neglected aspect of modern postwar housing, from which present engagement and active reflection can grow, making the book an appealing read for both scholars and housing practitioners worldwide.Contributors: Umberto Bonomo (Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile), Flávia Brito do Nascimento (Universidade de São Paulo), Gaia Caramellino (Politecnico di Milano), Federico Coricelli (Politecnico di Torino), Jesse Honsa (KU Leuven), Heidi Svenningsen Kajita (University of Copenhagen), Michael Klein (TU Wien), Andrea Migotto (KU Leuven), Nicola Russi (Politecnico di Torino), Martino Tattara (KU Leuven)Ebook available in Open Access.

Abstract

Dogma's research into the architecture of the room is part of an ongoing exploration into domestic space that the Brussels-based office have been pursuing since 2012 through various design projects and publications. Far from being a constant, unvarying architectural form, the room is the product of specific historical circumstances and is therefore always undergoing transformation and change. The architecture of the room is related to one of the most controversial and problematic issues of human history: the domestication of society. The form of the room subtly conveys the ways in which individuals have been differentiated and defined as subjects, with concomitant gender and class associations

"A catalogue of architectural projects and accompanying essays by the Brussels-based Dogma, all dealing with the idea of domestic space, but more radically a manifesto of sorts for a new, synthetic approach to living and working"--

Abstract

The platform is not only a way of raising buildings or people from the ground, but also an architectural form that redefines and negotiates the way in which the ground itself is made inhabitable.While often seen as a symbol of power, the platform has also served as a gathering place: a point of orientation and exchange among communities. Its use as an architectural archetype is common to many cultures and different ages, and yet very little has been written about it. One of the few texts on the architecture of the platform is the 1959 essay "Platforms and Plateaus' by Jørn Utzon, which is republished at the end of this book. Expanding and problematizing Utzon's appraisal of the platform as an architectural idea, our research aims at building a more systematic and critical enquiry into this archetype.The book 'Platforms' consists of an introductory essay and 30 case-studies of platform architecture through images, axonometric drawings and short texts. It also includes drawings and images of "Primary', a prototype for a public gathering space designed and built in a marginal urban location in Sharjah as part of Right of Future Generations, the Sharjah Architecture Triennial curated by Adrian Lahoud in 2019.

Abstract

For his Master Thesis in Urbanism and Spatial Planning, Andreas De Boeck (Faculty of Architecture, KU Leuven, Campus Sint-Lucas Ghent) developed a reflection around the theories of Alexander d’Hooghe (ORG) (‘A Vision for Brussels, Capital of Europe’ 2004) and Dogma (‘Brussel: A Manifesto Towards the Capital of Europe’ 2006) attempting to address the subject of city and urbanism from an architectural point of view.
