Countering the phenomenon of sprawl in the often anonymous or chaotic urban periphery, the Oassis neighborhood in Lausanne takes a unique approach based on urbanity and hybridization. Located on a former industrial wasteland in the west of the city, Oassis reflects the compositional principles of the traditional city, while also engaging in the dynamics of ecological transition and climate resilience. This ‘urban fragment’ is both an urban fabric, compatible with future developments in the neighborhood, and an architectural object characterized by urbanity. The contemporary challenges of regenerating suburban areas are addressed here through diverse development programs and a profusion of gardens. Skilful combination of economic, ecological and social factors with high-quality architecture With unpublished documents and specially commissioned photographs Hybride Urbanität Der Zersiedelung der oft anonymen oder chaotischen Peripherie setzt das Viertel Oassis einen einzigartigen Ansatz entgegen, der zugleich auf Urbanität und Hybridisierung setzt. Das Viertel auf einer ehemaligen Industriebrache im Westen von Lausanne knüpft an die Kompositionsprinzipien der traditionellen Stadt an, während es sich gleichzeitig in eine Dynamik des ökologischen Übergangs und der Klimaresilienz einreiht. Dieses "Stadtfragment" ist sowohl ein urbanes Gewebe, das mit künftigen Entwicklungen in der Nachbarschaft kompatibel ist, als auch ein architektonisches Objekt, geprägt von Urbanität. Die zeitgenössischen Herausforderungen der Regeneration suburbaner Gebiete manifestieren sich hier in einem programmatischen Reichtum und einer Vielfalt an Gärten. Gekonnte Verbindung von ökonomischen, ökologischen und sozialen Faktoren mit architektonischer Qualität Mit unpublizierten Dokumenten und eigens angefertigten Fotografien

"Formidable challenges confront Australia and its human settlements: the mega-metro regions, major and provincial cities, coastal, rural and remote towns. The key drivers of change and major urban vulnerabilities have been identified in the 2006 Australia State of Environment Report as well as several other national-level reports (Sustainable Cities 2005). Principal among them are a resource-constrained world (oil, water, food, skilled labour, materials) and a carbon-constrained world (linked to climate change and a need to transition to renewable energy) both of which will strongly shape urban development this century compared to the last. This book seeks to clearly identify 21st century challenges to Australia's cities and regions that flow from these global influences and identify potential solutions to these critical problems and vulnerabilities. The solutions will require fundamental transitions in many instances: to our urban infrastructures, to our institutions and perhaps most of all to ourselves in terms of our lifestyle activities and consumption patterns. The book is about outlining pathways to the future in each area."--Provided by publisher.
