  • The Surface of Public Space Working with the “Plane” to Design Urban Voids
    The Surface of Public Space Working with the “Plane” to Design Urban Voids PAOLA VERONICA DELL’AIRA1 At the end of the 1940s they taught me that architecture was about mass and volume. Space arrived in the 1950s. Denise Scott Brown Abstract: This Paper examines the “return to the surface” in the design of contempo- rary urban space: shunned by modernist thinking, this dimension has now reacquired importance and ... “relief”. The surface, horizontal and vertical, is no longer a space of capricious decoration. Landscaping, texture, colour, tactile, visual and audio effects are now structuring materials. They configure weak actions with strong effects. The soil, in particular, is the “skin” of public space, its face. Promenades, piazzas, widen- ings, crossroads, grow more complex in their performance and image, intensifying the experience of their use. They indicate specific functions, through a design of palimp- sests. They draw lines on the ground for team sports, trace maps for the installation of furnishings, host technological networks, bring light and air to underground spaces and incorporate lighting. Like façades, soils also multiply their layering to become complex technological and bioclimatic devices. For example, ventilated walls and “dry laid” paving. Or vertical screens, brise-soleil and silkscreened walls, rises and drops, undulations and level changes, technical floors, raised paving, plug-in grids, landscaped parterres: from the second screen to ... the second pavement! This text describes techniques, morphological developments and feasibility and offers an excursus through examples from past and recent history. Keywords: public urban space, dematerialization, void, design of the soil, return to the surface, working “with the plane”, “horizontal” action, second pavement, patchwork, design on the ground.

    JEWISH CEMETERY AUGSBURG GRAVELIST based on original vital records 1867 – 1940s researched and displayed by Rolf Hofmann + Herbert Immenkötter printed in 2018 1 CONTENT 3 Introduction 4 Necrology based on original Vital Records 110 Family Name Index 126 Maiden Name Index 131 Birth Place Index 140 Chronological Order of Grave Sites 141 Schematic Cemetery Map 146 Stonemason Max Koppel & Sons 147 Memorial of World War I Victims 149 Photo Gallery of Remarkable Graves 156 Biographical note on Rolf Hofmann 158 Biography of Herbert Immenkötter 159 Main Sources of Cemetery Research 160 Imprint 2 INTRODUCTION This necrology was originally compiled by the historic Jewish Community of Augsburg from 1867 (foundation of Augsburg Jewish cemetery at Haunstetter Strasse) until 1940 (end of Jewish Community) and also corresponds to the grave sites, as numbers of this necrology are the same as on gravestone backs, still legible today. Additional information comes from vital records of Community Registry Office. This grave list is published on the Alemannia Judaica website. Family history details were compiled in 2009 - 2011 by Rolf Hofmann together with Herbert Immenkötter. Of great help was Gernot Römer’s remarkable book “An meine Gemeinde in der Zerstreuung” (circular letters by Augsburg Rabbi Ernst Jacob 1941-1949) with family history details which otherwise we would not have been able to gather. This list is inevitably incomplete, it contains errors and does not cover all death cases of Augsburg Jewish families between the opening of the Augsburg Jewish cemetery (1867) and the liquidation of the Jewish community (ca 1940) because of limited available resources. However, there is a wealth of information on many Jewish families who then had lived in Augsburg - valuable for descendants, historians as well as genealogists.

  • Temporality in Designed Landscapes: the Theory and Its Practice in Works of Some Major Landscape Designers 1945-2005
    Temporality in Designed Landscapes: the theory and its practice in works of some major landscape designers 1945-2005 A Thesis submitted to the University of Sheffield for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Faculty of Social Science by LEE HEYKOOP DEPARTMENT of LANDSCAPE University of Sheffield June 2015 i | P a g e ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Most importantly I would like to thank my supervisor Anna Jorgensen who has guided, restrained and encouraged at appropriate times. Her reminders about not assuming that others see as I do enabled improved articulation of key ideas. I would also like to thank my second supervisor, Cathy Dee, for her rigorous critiquing, and her important contribution to the structure of this research. And, a huge thank you to my wonderful children, Judi, Laura and Laurence, who, in their teen years, in the early years of my research, tolerated the impact of my temporal squeeze, and who have been so supportive throughout all the happenings over subsequent years. Personal thanks aside, a number of writers in this thesis have fired my thinking, and to them I am extremely grateful: Arnold Berleant, Edmund Husserl, Mikhail Bakhtin, Michel Conan, Stephen Bann, Anita Berrizbeitia, Elizabeth Grosz, Elizabeth Meyer, Ian Thompson, and Marc Treib. ii | P a g e ABSTRACT This study analyses temporality in designed landscapes. The meaning of temporality is explored, taking us beyond common conceptualisations of time. Temporality, invariably poorly understood in a landscape context, and previously acknowledged as being important, but with only limited explicit discourse, is examined through the lens of a fresh theoretical articulation of temporality pertaining to designed landscapes.

    Garden Thinking in Cities of Tomorrow Udo Weilacher Technical University of Munich Department of Architecture Munich, Germany Abstract Since the middle of the 19th century, when the term ‘landscape architecture’ began to replace the hitherto common term ‘garden art’, the garden as a work of art and gardening, understood as a predominantly decorative activity, stood in the critical discussion about the future of the metropolises. It was not only architects and urban planners who repeatedly questioned the value of ornamental gardens in the city. Against the background of the enormous growth of the cities in the industrial age and the accompanying social problems, leading European landscape architects in the 20th century like Leberecht Migge (1881-1935), Ernst Cramer (1898-1980), and Dieter Kienast (1945-1998) stated that gardening is neither artistic work nor scientific planning, neither modern nor progressive. Given the respective historical context as well as the particular conception of city and society, this criticism is comprehensible. In the 21st century though, the garden as a living component in the ‘network metropolis’, and gardening itself, especially ‘urban gardening’, were experiencing a remarkable renaissance. Against the background of today’s rapid development of the ‘Zwischenstadt’, it turns out that the basic principles of garden thinking never really lost their relevance. Keywords landscape architecture, urban gardening, modernism, functionalism, ecology, modern art DOI https://doi.org/10.7480/spool.2020.1.5484 113 SPOOL | ISSN 2215-0897 | E-ISSN 2215-0900 | VOLUME #7 | ISSUE #1 Introduction Frederick Law Olmsted was apparently the first professional in the mid-19th century to use the term ‘landscape architecture’ in connection with his work on Central Park in New York.

Tracking Daniel Libeskind’s design inspirations, public arguments over continuation of the building and its eventual use, I argue that a consistent argumentative trope, characterized by Ernst Bloch’s concept of anticipatory illumination, shows up in these various conversations and influences the building’s eventual use as the Jewish Museum Berlin. The rhetoric of anticipatory illumination, in this case, shifts over time, first emphasizing Jewish cultural absence in Berlin and the need to make that absence visible, but later pushing cultural absence to the background in favor of expressing the need for multicultural tolerance in Germany and beyond.
