Hani Rashid, Mitbegründer des visionären New Yorker Architekturbüros Asymptote, leitet seit 2011 das Studio Hani Rashid in Wien. Das Programm zielt auf die Entwicklung konzeptueller und praktischer Fähigkeiten zur Schaffung zukunftsgerichteter Architektur: auf die experimentelle Untersuchung ihrer atmosphärischen, phänomenalen und optischen Effekte und Wirkungen, die intelligente Antworten auf gegenwärtige Fragen des Lebensraumes geben, sich zugleich aber einem \"Machbarkeitsnachweis\" unterziehen. „Re: Futures\" dokumentiert anhand von Texten, digitalen Visualisierungen und deskriptiven Architekturskizzen die in den letzten Jahren entstandenen Arbeiten und entfaltet so ein Spektrum von zeitgenössischen Entwurfsmethoden und zukunftsgerichteten Themen in der Architektur. Hani Rashid, co-founder of Asymptote, the visionary New York architectural practice, has been heading up Studio Hani Rashid in Vienna since 2011. The curriculum focuses on the development of conceptual and practical skills for creating future-oriented architecture – on experimental investigation of atmospheric, phenomenal, and visual effects, which provides intelligent solutions for contemporary forms of dwelling and being but which should also satisfy \"feasibility criteria\". \"Re: Futures\" uses texts, digital visualizations and descriptive architectural sketches to document the work created over recent years, and thereby reveals a spectrum of contemporary design methods and future-oriented architectural themes.

The importance of innovation and technology today brings with it a need for change in the definition of doctoral education, in the training of researchers, doctoral research itself, and in the dissemination areas targeted by doctoral theses. In Europe, doctoral education is the focus of wide-ranging reform in order to achieve coherence in higher education. Doctoral Education in Architecture: Challenges and Opportunities deals with a topic on which there is currently little literature available. While there are a considerable number of publications on doctoral education in general and in country-specific contexts, field-specific publications are rare. This book contains data obtained from a pilot study set up by the editors on \"The Nature and Structure of Doctoral Studies in Architecture\", as well as excerpts from a workshop based on this study, held at Istanbul Technical University Faculty of Architecture. It includes excerpts from the discussion sessions and contributions on contexts, conditions, and problems in architectural schools in several European countries. This volume provides an overview and insight for future challenges for doctoral education in the field of architecture. Contributors include: Gülsün Sağlamer; Fatma Erkök; Gary Moore; Kemal Gürüz; Hans Beunderman; Murray Fraser; Stefan Simion; Katalin Marótzy; Vilma Hastaoglou-Martinidis; Georgios Papakostas; Constantin Spyridonidis; Olivier Masson; Jean Stillemans; Pelin Dursun; and Philip Ursprung.

2008 entwickelte das Institut für Kunst und Architektur der Akademie der bildenden Künste in Wien eine neue Basis für die Ausbildung. Man schuf fünf Forschungsplattformen: Analogue and Digital Production (ADP), Ecology Sustainability Conservation (ESC), History Theory Criticism (HTC), Geogra-phy Landscape Cities (GLC) und Construction Material Technology (CMT). Die zuletzt genannte Plattform CMT wird von Michelle Howard geleitet; sie hat dort das Unterrichts-Programm Research Observe Make (ROM) etabliert. Die Publikation ROM dokumentiert dieses Programm und bildet gleichzeitig die Basis für die künftige Entwicklung. Sie besteht aus fünf einzeln lesbaren, jedoch komplementären Büchern, die in einem Band zusammengefasst sind. Nach einer Einleitung und einer theoretischen Reflexion werden die Forschungsprojekte „Elemente“, „Raum“ und „Material“ vorgestellt. Das letzte Buch dokumentiert Workshops, Vorträge und Experimente.Ein anregendes Lesebuch mit vielen Fachbeiträgen und kreativen studentischen Projekten. In 2008, the Department of Art and Architecture at the Vienna Academy of Fine Arts developed a new basis for the architecture curriculum. They created five research platforms: Analogue and Digital Production (ADP), Ecology Sustainability Conservation (ESC), History Theory Criticism (HTC), Geography Landscape Cities (GLC) and Construction Material Technology (CMT). The CMT platform is lead by Michelle Howard; who used the platform to explore the Research Observe Make (ROM) teaching studies. The ROM publication documents this program of studies and also forms the basis for future development. It comprises, assembled in one volume, five complementary books, which can also be read individually. After an introduction and an exposé on theory, the \"elemental\", \"spatial\" and \"material\" projects are introduced. The last book documents workshops, lectures and experiments.An inspiring compendium with numerous expert contributions and creative student projects.

This collection of case studies by design educators critically explores the current practice of service-learning in architecture, landscape design, and urban planning, radically revising the standard protocol for university-initiated design and planning projects in the community. The authors' lively examination of real-life community collaborations forms a pedagogical framework for educators, professionals, and students alike, offering guidelines for a generative and inclusive collaborative design process.

Der architektonische Entwurf und seine Methoden werden wiederentdeckt. Insbesondere die entwurfsbasierte Forschung (Design-based Research) steht im Zentrum des internationalen wissenschaftlichen Interesses. Aber wie konkret sieht eine Forschung aus, die das Entwerfen nicht mehr nur erforscht, sondern mittels Entwerfen stattfindet?Auf der Basis der Sprechakttheorie und aktueller Performativitatsdiskurse haben die Herausgeberinnen Angelika Schnell, Eva Sommeregger und Waltraud Indrist an der Akademie der bildenden Kunste Wien Lehre und Forschung verknupft, um herauszufinden, was Design-based Research tatsachlich sein und leisten kann.Das Buch zeigt das aktuelle Potenzial des performative turn\" in der Architektur anhand der Forschungsergebnisse von Studierenden verschiedener Entwurfsstudios am Institut fur Kunst und Architektur. Sie werden durch Textbeitrage der Herausgeberinnen sowie von Elke Krasny, Maximilian Muller, August Sarnitz und Claudia Slanar erganzt: sie analysieren das entwerfende Forschen\" in seinem wissenschaftlichen Kontext. Mit einem Vorwort von Wolfgang Tschapeller.

The Design-Build Studio examines sixteen international community driven design-build case studies through process and product, with preceding chapters on community involvement, digital and handcraft methodologies and a graphic Time Map. Together these projects serve as a field guide to the current trends in academic design-build studios, a window into the different processes and methodologies being taught and realized today. Design-build supports the idea that building, making and designing are intrinsic to each other: knowledge of one strengthens and informs the expression of the other. Hands-on learning through the act of building what you design translates theories and ideas into real world experience. The work chronicled in this book reveals how this type of applied knowledge grounds us in the physicality of the world in which we live.

This book is the outcome of one of the Forum Series on Architectural Education, organized by the Architectural Education Association of Turkey (MIMED) on the theme of \"Flexibility in Architecture.\" At Forum IV, the architectural education platform was cross-examined, new ideas and experiences were shared, and the potentials of \"regeneration\" were discovered. The notion of flexibility in architectural education is the subject of fresh and vital debate which is based on whether it is achieved b.

Starting with the question concerning the discursive formation of architectural history, the chapters compiled in this manuscript attempt to re-read the historiography of the early modern architecture from the point of view of the theoretical work produce.

Wie hat sich die Berliner Stadtlandschaft im Laufe der Verwandlung von einer geteilten Stadt zur Kreativmetropole verändert? Trotz des gewaltigen Erbes und großer Entwicklungsprojekte ruft Berlin immer noch Bilder von Lücken und innerstädtischer Brachen hervor. Das Buch macht die leicht veränderlichen und komplexen politischen Zusammenhänge dieser unbestimmten Orte deutlich. Fotografien von Orten aus den Jahren 2001 und 2016 zeigen, wie aus Niemandsland neue Wohnbauten und wie aus Untergrundtreffpunkten Geschäftszentren geworden sind. Sie zeigen aber auch verbliebene Nischen unerwarteter Wildnis und Freiheit. Die begleitenden Texte renommierter Urbanisten untersuchen diese wichtigen und oft stillen Reserven und fordern dazu auf unseren Einsatz für die Zukunft der Stadt zu hinterfragen. How has Berlin’s urban landscape changed in its remarkable transformation from divided city to creative capital? Despite the monumental heritage and grand development projects, Berlin still conjures up images of urban fragmentation and vacant inner-city land. The book reveals the changing nature and complex politics of this open space. A rephotographing of sites between 2001 and 2016 shows how no man’s land has made way for new apartments and underground hangouts have changed into commercial hubs, but it also transports us to remaining pockets of urban wilderness and unexpected freedom right next to the city’s most iconic squares. The accompanying essays by noted urban thinkers explore this little-known but vital reserve—forcing us to reflect on our unrelenting efforts to chart the future of the city at large.
