5 Roland Poppensieker Image, Sign and Recollection Architekt BDA n_ext. dimension Images and signs are extremely important components of the emotional and partly unconscious human perceptual practice. Their subtle or even surprising use can set very effective cognitive as well as emotional processes in motion. My research interest is an examination and reconsideration of the significance and potential of sign and image in architecture. My approach is to develop a contemporary strategy of applying sign- and image-based levels of communication to the architectural. These levels may be of intuitive nature and based on immediate perception as well as of discursive fashion, referring primarily to the intellect. The object of my investigation is currently especially the application and transformation of two-dimensional signs and images into the threedimensional. Letters and numbers are also considered. The research is also about the enigmatic in (my) architecture, as well as about the moments of loss and expectation it contains.

Han fl yttede fra sin gamle, lille lejlighed til en ny, stor lejlighed med udsigt i Urbanplanens højhus i Da børnene var små, var det bekvemt, at de bare kunne rende ned på legepladsen og sjældent kom uden for synsvinkel. Det myldrede med børn, og naboerne passede gerne på hinandens børn. Min kone sad ofte og drak the og hvidvin sammen med alle de andre mødre. Boligbyggeriet to verdener: I det private kan du gøre hvad du vil, i det almene ikke. Til gengæld kan man få indfl ydelse på alt gennem beboerdemokratiet. Det er en ekstra kvalitet at have medindfl ydelse og være med, hvor det sker. Jeg håber, at processen omkring bazaren kan danne grundlag for noget mere permanent i centret. Her mangler liv. En oprindelig tanke for det hybride hus var at skabe en variation af produktionsværksteder, som kunne sørge for daglig aktivitet og liv i Solvang Centret. Herfra opstod idéen om et væksthus på taget, hvor beboere kunne dyrke urter og grøntsager samtidig med, at det kunne fungere som et synligt vartegn for SOUP og Solvang Centret. En frodig nyttehave oven på det gamle supermarkeds tag kom til at bestå af hængende bede med spiselige planter, der blev vandet med lokalt opsamlet regnvand via et håndpumpedrevet vandingssystem. Niels Balling, beboerrådgiver i Partnerskabet Partnerskabet danner rammen om helhedsorienteret boligsocial indsats i Urbanplanen, som blandt andet arbejder for, at området skal få mindre ø-karakter og i stedet blive en del af en bymæssighed. Solvang Centret er indrettet til småbutikker, hvilket nabobydelen Ørestad ikke er, og Partnerskabet mener, at centret netop her har et potentiale som alternativ til storcenterbyen. Det var fedt, at der skete noget, og positivt at kunne få så mange med i en så relativt kort og hektisk indsats. SOUP fungerede som et statement. Folk husker Culture house of the future, Køge, 2012 Research: - Creative Practice Research/Adapt-r - Minor science - Reflection in action - Architectural Ethnography - New materialism - Hand drawing - Fragments - Writing det som en god oplevelse, og netværket, som delvis fandtes på forhånd, blev styrket. Jeg kunne dog savne, at man efter, at alting var pakket sammen, havde samlet alle til en evaluering og afrunding forløbet. Kommunen og boligforeningen kunne også godt have fortsat dialogen. Jameela Bilal, leder af Sycaféen Sycaféen blev startet op i december 2006 som et samarbejde mellem områdeløftssekretariat og Partnerskabet. Jameela er selv vokset op i et af Urbanplanens rækkehuse med sin familie og har, siden hun fl yttede hjemmefra for 10 år siden, stået på venteliste til en bolig i området. Det er vigtigt med et sted som Sycaféen, hvor førtidspensionerede, langtidssygemeldte og kvinder, som af andre grunde står uden for arbejdsmarkedet, har et sted, de kan tage hen og socialisere og hygge sig. Frem for det nuværende socialcenter i Solvang Centret ville jeg foretrække aktivitetshus med især noget for unge. Og forretninger og et supermarked, så folk ikke skal gå så langt for at købe ind. Gerne en halalslagter, en bazar i det hele taget. Sycaféen er et af flere eksempler på de sociale væresteder, som eksisterer rundt omkring i Urbanplanen. Den er kun for kvinder og holder til i kælderen i selve centerbebyggelsen. Godt 20 kvinder er medlemmer og kommer i Sycaféen for at snakke, sy, lave mad, spise sammen mm. Sycaféen danner et glimrende billede på eksistensen af disse små, innovative arbejdsfællesskaber og blev derfor bragt op i lyset og fi k et særligt rum på SOUP-udstillingen. Perlerækken blev udført i samarbejde med eleverne på Dyvekeskolen. Over perler blev anvendt til udførelsen af de i alt 370 perle snore på hver 2,8 meters længde. Dette tidskrævende arbejde fordrede ikke særlige kompetencer, og enhver færdiggjort perlesnor, uanset dens udtryk, blev betragtet som en velkommen brik til dette store, lokalt forankrede puslespil. Perlerækken fremstod i sin endelige form som et udsmykningseksempel med indlejrede æstetiske, sociale og etniske spor. For nogle år siden oprettede Urbanplanens Lokalhistoriske Forening et billedarkiv for fotografi er og smalfi lm fra perioden SOUPs midlertidige Lokalmuseum byggede videre på denne indsamling og opfordrede folk i Urbanplanen til at udlåne genstande, som de forbandt med området. Lokalmuseet var uautoriseret og benyttede sig af sammenblanding af udtryk. Det vægtede den personlige, hverdagsagtige historie og præsenterede private billeder og genstande, der var udlånt af institutioner, beboere og handlende i Urbanplanen. Marianne Orby, beboer i Urbanplanen. Marianne flyttede til Urbanplanen for nogle år siden og meldte sig ind i Foreningen Kunst i Planen. Hun skrev en ansøgning til Statens Kunstfond om at få støtte til et større kunstprojekt i Urbanplanen, og på den baggrund opstod SOUP. Marianne bekymrer sig om den kulturelle fattigdom i Urbanplanen. Der er en kulturel mangfoldighed til stede, men der fi n- des ikke befordrende rammer for dens udfoldelse. Især de unge er desillusionerede og har ingen Vi oplevede, at der ikke var noget hærværk i Solvang Centret under SOUPs udstillingsperiode. Jeg samlede cigaretskodder op på torvet, og en lille dreng sagde: Her kommer jo alligevel til at se grimt ud igen, når bazaren lukker. Mange i Urbanplanen var ikke klar over, at det var et kunstprojekt, men taler om det som en god oplevelse og spørger, hvorfor det ikke kommer igen. Der var en god interaktion i bazaren, et samvær mellem børn og voksne. Helle Andresen, bibliotekar Solvang Bibliotek fungerer som Urbanplanens dagligstue. Det er på én gang et lærings-, møde- og kultursted. Bibliotekspersonalet er meget engageret i livet i Urbanplanen og mener, at der mangler indendørs mødesteder, særligt for børn og unge. Bibliotekarerne var derfor ivrigt involverede i SOUP-projektet I bazaren havde vi en anden kontakt til folk end til hverdag. Vi var ligestillede med dem, der havde boder, og mødte beboere, vi ikke ellers møder på biblioteket. Vi følte os både synlige som bibliotek og som mennesker. Bibliotekets værestedsfunktion kom derfor i høj grad til udfoldelse. Vi ønsker os en hverdagsbazar, flere legitime mål for, hvor man går hen. SOUP-Biblioteket blev udformet i samarbejde med det lokale folkebiblioteks ansatte. Det fungerede som en central plads i bazaren, hvor der blev læst, leget, optrådt og hentet informationer om aktiviteter. Med sin symbolske form skabte Biblioteket en fiktion over den omgivende virkeligheds forsømte, senmodernistiske bydelscenter og genoplivede dets oprindelige aspirationer: kultur, vækst og offentlighed. Bogtrappen var tænkt som illusion af et rum, der brød op gennem etagerne og strakte sig mod himlen. Eksisterende lokal pub: Poppen Verdenskøkken Global Café er et initiativ, der blev sat i gang af Partnerskabet for at få kvarterets indvandrerkvinder til at mødes og lave mad i fællesskab. SOUP inviterede kokken Mette Sia Martinussen til at holde åbent Verdenskøkken sammen med disse kvinder. I månederne forud for projektets 16 åbningsdage mødtes Mette Sia Martinussen og kvinderne for at lære hinanden at kende, fi nde ud af, hvem der havde lyst til at være med, og sammensætte en international menu, der var inspireret af madkulturen i kvindernes herkomstlande. Det blev til et team med fem-ti kvinder, som dagligt kom i køkkenet på Solvang Centrets torv og serverede et udvalg af kolde og varme supper.

10 Lisi Wieser Film-Space Transcript Technical University Berlin #film-space transcript During my undergrad and Master s studies, I was always exposed to the way my friends in other related fields, specificity film studies, approach to creating space. I constantly learned about possibilities that other canons can bring to my approach to space and design. I took a course which explored film as transcription for architectural design under supervision of Prof. Deborah Hauptmann at TU in Delft. I did my diploma at TU Vienna under supervssion of Prof. Will Alsop under constant exchange with my cinematographic friends using their cameras, their materials, their skills - to finish my studies. 10 Years later, a new big interior project is now the basis to develop this exchange further. Together with a director friend the idea emerged to pretend to do a movie while we are actually doing an interior design. We started to meet with an award winning costume designer and a lighting designer who is specifically interested in opera lightning after doing film. We considered different approaches, exchanging ideas, talking about plots and sequences. Things began to come exciting, suddenly a very problematic skylight became a very exciting artificial light source in the ceiling. The director instantly filled the apartment with buzzling situations of daily life, fabrics are chosen thinking about tangling toes at the end of a couch. Furthermore we are looking for a director of photography to picture the flat out of the mind of a film, as well for a sound designer who should be in charge of p.e the noise a moving chair produces on a wooden floor. #reflection #strategic approach My study is a new approach to my architecture, much different from my working process of my former projects. In previous projects, very often, I worked solo, had limited budgets and time frame to create a concept or main idea. This research now is embedded in one of my current very different interior design projects for a private person in Vienna with very exclusive budget starting now being finished in approx. 6 months. Working on this project now together with a constant growing team of filmmakers is an espectacular opportunity to see which spatial possibilities emerge out of this exchange. The question is what kind of quality and depth can this bring to my architecture? What kind of new ideas, space settings, colour concepts, material suggestions and lightning conditions can be produced? # stay in the vacuum left by the majority of the architectural field #research project SOUND SPEED 00 CUT run flight flight faster move move faster move relax hold back flight hold back hold back flight run relax SCENE 01 SCENE 03 00:00 00:25 SCENE 02 00:45 01:00

Prof. Petra Čeferin, PhD Prof. Valentina Hlebec, PhD Faculty of Architecture, University of Ljubljana Faculty of Social Sciences, University of Ljubljana STRUCTURAL MODEL OF MULTIGENERATIONAL LIVING ENVIRONMENT USERS OF ALL AGE GROUPS MULTIGENERATIONAL LIVING ENVIRONMENT DEVELOPMENT STRUCTURAL MODEL Multigenerational living environment as an alternative to existing institutionalized living environment of older population presents the main field of research. The high level of elderly segregation remains ever present despite constant developments in the area of institutionalized care. Necessity of elderly integration into general social environment reminds us of importance of active presence for all age groups in order to provide quality living environment. Furthermore, it opens numerous questions concerning the unexplored or underdeveloped potentials of living environment, when the needs of users of all age groups are taken into consideration. CONNECTION RESEARCH TERMS The aim of research is to explore and understand how diverse needs of users of all ages can influence the development of wider living environment, building typology from urbanistic point of view, and on architectural design of living units. The goal is to develop a structural model of multigenerational living environment and test its applicability in diverse situations. ACTIVITY CARE SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT The basic research frame of structural model development is defined by the key properties of multigenerational living environment from the social and spatial point of view. How do these properties affect the content of an environment, how are they regulated and how do they relate to each other in order to establish multigenerational living environment of higher quality? These are the focus questions of the doctoral thesis. buildings STRUCTURAL MODEL SCHEME elderly Research includes all of the users of a living environment of all the age groups as well as multigenerational living environment in itself. Research terms will be inducted through analysis and categorization of the users needs. Study of relations among users is to be performed, exploring relations among the members of the same age group, as well as with the members of other age groups. Based on established research terms, the further study should be conducted, how users interrelations are expressed upon living environment and what kind of relations does the living environment generate towards its users, thus forming a foundation of structural model development. rooms youngsters adults environment children spaces Structural model of multigenerational living environment as a system of social and spatial relations has three primary roles. Firstly as a system of initial design, secondly as a system of review in the planning stage and finally as a system for evaluation of living environment in use. Diverse modes of application include transformation-of or addition-to an existing living environment and establishing of a new living environment. Scale adaptability of the model enables application on the level of wider living environment, building typology development and architectural design of living units.
