The observation of urban reality complexity, through a new sensibility towards the environment, the nature and the earth, is slowly changing the sense and the value of some practices of architectural and urban acting, not only in the academia, but also in the institutional/politic field. In this way, it is possible to define a new kind of urban landscape, the productive landscape , whose main component is represented by the land and by its multi-functional value. A experimentation of the concept has been applied to the ex Nato area in west Naples (Italy). The area was occupied by the U.S. Army for 50 years. In 2013, it was finally freed, and through an agreement with the Municipality of Naples (in the person of the Mayor Luigi de Magistris) and the Banco di Napoli Foundation, what once was a place where wars were decided, today it becomes a place to build peace and sociality. The project of an agricultural natural park stems from a public demand and from the active participation of citizens that promoted the use and management of this area. The realization of this project for the Municipality of Naples is an example of how the interests of citizens, institutions and professionals can meet. Therefore, the guiding principles of Naples municipality “interest” can be summarized as follows: the identification of a young segment of the population as the first recipient of the area reuse, the expression of the social function of the project to be implemented in order of a recovery of social cohesion , a conformation of an urban self-governing community of users and residents, activation of spontaneous processes among the users, direct participation of the citizens, support of public institutions, adoption of environmental sustainability.
对城市现实复杂性的观察,通过对环境、自然和地球的一种新的敏感性,正在慢慢改变一些建筑和城市行为实践的意义和价值,不仅在学术界,而且在制度/政治领域。通过这种方式,可以定义一种新的城市景观,即生产性景观,其主要组成部分由土地及其多功能价值代表。在西那不勒斯(意大利)的前北约地区进行了这一概念的试验。该地区被美国军队占领了50年。2013年,通过与那不勒斯市政府(由市长Luigi de Magistris主持)和那不勒斯银行基金会达成协议,它最终被释放,曾经是一个决定战争的地方,今天它成为一个建立和平与社会的地方。农业自然公园项目源于公众的需求和市民的积极参与,促进了该地区的使用和管理。那不勒斯市政府的这个项目的实现是公民、机构和专业人员如何满足利益的一个例子。因此,那不勒斯市政府“利益”的指导原则可以概括为以下几点:确定年轻人群作为区域再利用的第一个接受者,表达项目的社会功能,以恢复社会凝聚力,形成用户和居民的城市自治社区,激活用户之间的自发过程,公民的直接参与,公共机构的支持,采用环境可持续性。

CUT-UP is a term coined by the American writer William S. Burroughs based on the juxtaposition of passages from the own works and also from others in order to re-assemble the random fragments generating completly new senses and meanings. Moved to architecture, the purpose of this operation would be to define strategies, using existing forms, to realise completely different effects. So, we can say that the notions of originality, and even creation, so present in our culture, could be understood in a more freely and unprejudiced way.

words) It seems that in the last decades architecture has finally become aware of the impact the demands of its construc- tion and of its maintenance and operation have on the environment. The demands for architecture of being green or becoming ecological have been answered mostly through an enhanced use of technology, through a technical deployment of a multiplicity of systems and gadgets that try to achieve a better performance, or in other words, a better efficiency, but not by addressing the roots of the question. Henceforth, this increase in the use of technology is covering the fact that what architecture needs to do for being green is not to promote the use of technology, but to rethink its original relation with technique and nature. This paper will propose in the first place a brief survey of this original and tainted relation between architecture, technique and nature, to show how and why this relation was condemned since the beginning. Then, I will propose in the first place two strategies to fight this original mis- understanding: an architecture of visibility, which should be a critical one, and an architecture of gratuity, that should necessarily be a disinterested one. It will follow a review of some of the questions already mentioned with more detail, addressing the question of a necessary negotiation with nature, the issues posed by the rhetorical use of green technology, the demands of transparency and gratuity in architecture, the relations between physis and techne, and the important question of disinterest through the lens of Kantian aesthetics. In a final and short conclusion I will propose, instead of a technical substratum for the relations between architecture and nature, an aesthetical one, that can anticipate a relation between man and nature based in disinterest instead of extraction and domination.

This emerging investigation joins the search of a territorial model to give meaning to this “complete world” which is the Tarragona central area, where ENTREVIAS claim a deserved prominence that as yet unrecognized. Through previous positions on episodes around urban marginality, which have influenced the manufactured image of the city, it is hoped to reclaim urban values by the importance of uncharted zones, discontinuous areas after the erratic development on gradually redrawing urban spaces based on the relative needs of the moment. The "informal" industrial plants, peripheral residential areas, expanding port, infrastructures that condition the territory and the urban attributes on ENTREVIAS can be the scenarios to detect urban processes that we recognize as usual. The conclusions of this article urge caution against a hasty metropolitan organization for this territory of independent living units in a polyhedral complex balance.

In a first energy model, the geodesic dome of R.B.

About future structural projects, some thoughful approches for the future are alternated between the utilization of state-of-art technologies and no technology at all, between seeking total control of environment and abandoning all modes of control.
在第一个能量模型中,R.B. Fuller的测地圆屋顶,专注于如何用最小的能量覆盖最大的空间的问题,由许多空气分子组成,例如“纸板屋”项目,他在其中解释了相同的项目在较小的规模。由于弹道和导航研究的影响,空气溶液由几个软微粒代表,可能支持抗压强度,被水溶液取代,水溶液也由微粒组成,但如小钢球,它们不能在不承担切向应力的情况下相互滑动以承受抗压强度。在这些研究中,几何是预防和测量自然意外力量的有效工具,可以提前计算出时间中的能量事件。在第二个能源模型中,通过两个适应不同环境的基础设施项目,一个是空中的“Sky-Rail”,另一个是水生的“Under Sea Transit”,通过相邻性而不是与R. Le Ricolais的自同态原理正式联系,建立了一个连接,展示了没有重力的小玻璃和微生物如何导致像人工岛屿这样的新能源系统的构建原理。Le Ricolais说,伴随着生命而来的是生长的问题,直到现在,人类还没有能力制造出能生长的机器。关于未来的结构项目,在利用最先进的技术和根本不使用技术之间,在寻求完全控制环境和放弃所有控制模式之间,对未来的一些深思熟虑的方法进行了交替。

This research looks at the paths undertaken by anonymous citizens that take part in the development of Independent Cultural Centers. Especifically, we study, from the architectural point of view, those that are installed in public empty buidings located in historical city centers from towns like Madrid or Malaga. Therefore the action is a political act that is committed to a model of participatory management in public domain but also is a way of ensuring the physical, environmental and social health of a very sensitive fragment of these towns. The aim is to analyze the phenomenon looking at two cases, with the intention to clarify the architect role in a participatory and indeterministic way of doing, that is proving to be highly effective at material and emotional levels, whatever it can show us leads about the redefinition of the profession: from conductor to mediator between expectation and reality.

Between 1978 and 1979 Norman and Wendy Foster design their own home in the London neighbourhood of Hampstead. The most personal project of the Fosters allows us —as in many other cases— to trace the references, obsessions, dreams and frustrations of its creators. This project represents a unique attempt to apply the “well-serviced shed” concept —as described by Reyner Banham— to the domestic realm. A concept based in the use of systems integration as the main project strategy. The 18 months of intense work show, through the various options developed, the evolution of the production of the couple of architects, from the industrial functionalism of the “well-serviced shed”, towards the technological expressionism of the so-called High-Tech movement. In the reasons behind the failure of this unbuilt project, one can read the debates and conflicts —between architecture and engineering, prefabrication and craftsmanship, expressionism and functionalism— in which the practice is immerse by the end of the 1970s. A series of events that will precipitate a new way of understanding the relationship between architecture and technology.

The most personal project of the Fosters allows us —as in many other cases— to trace the references, obsessions, dreams and frustrations of its creators. This project represents a unique attempt to apply the “well-serviced shed” concept —as described by Reyner Banham— to the domestic realm. A concept based in the use of systems integration as the main project strategy. The 18 months of intense work show, through the various options developed, the evolution of the production of the couple of architects, from the industrial functionalism of the “well-serviced shed”, towards the technological expressionism of the so-called High-Tech movement. In the reasons behind the failure of this unbuilt project, one can read the debates and conflicts —between architecture and engineering, prefabrication and craftsmanship, expressionism and functionalism— in which the practice is immerse by the end of the 1970s. A series of events that will precipitate a new way of understanding the relationship between architecture and technology.","PeriodicalId":298878,"journal":{"name":"[i2]: Investigación e Innovación en Arquitectura y Territorio","volume":"205 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132097828","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
