Research was performed on three former iron and steel works areas located in the Ruhr region in Germany: one of the Thyssen's ironworks in Duisburg – Meiderich, the area of steelworks complex Gute-Hoffnungs-Hütte in Oberhausen and the area of the iron and steel works Phönix in Dortmund - Hörde. Methods were applied specific to urban morphology. For each object of study a comparative analysis of the town plan was carried out. Town plans were compared before and after the revitalization process and special attention was paid to land use. This allowed us to observe morphological and functional changes which occurred as a result of the revitalization of the study areas. The research showed that the revitalization of post-industrial space may be conducted in many different directions but irrespective of that it has a huge impact on the evolution of urban space in both a morphological and a functional way.

  • Faqs for Prospective Students
    HWS I ARCH Frequently Asked Questions on HWS architectural studies major final model from ARCH DESIGN II Studio by Addie Duplissie-Johnson 1. IS HWS’S PROGRAM A ‘NAAB ACCREDITED’ DEGREE PROGRAM? No. HWS’s Architectural Studies major is a pre-professional liberal arts degree. You will receive a B.A. in Architecture when you graduate. 2. WILL I BE A LICENSED ARCHITECT AFTER I GRADUATE FROM HWS? No. In order to become a licensed architect, you need to study architecture in an accredited professional program, either at the undergraduate (Bachelor of Architecture degree) or graduate level (Masters of Architecture degree). HWS’s program is a 4-year pre-professional non-accredited liberal arts college major in architecture studies. You can work in an architecture office; you just can’t become licensed until you go to graduate school. In order to become a licensed architect after completing HWS’s degree, you will need to go to a 3 year M. Arch. program at a major university. 3. HOW MANY OF HWS ARCHITECTURE MAJORS GET INTO GRADUATE SCHOOL? About 50% of our majors apply to graduate M. Arch. programs. The other 50% choose to work in real estate, construction management, historic preservation, interior design, planning, or landscape architecture. We have an excellent record getting students into graduate schools. 4. WHAT GRADUATE SCHOOLS HAVE ACCEPTED HWS ARCHITECTURE MAJORS? Our students have gone to all the major national architecture schools, including Harvard University, Columbia University, University of Pennsylvania (Penn), University of Virginia, Cornell, Rhode Island School of Design (RISD), Southern California Institute of Architecture (SCI-Arch), Virginia Tech, Georgia Tech, Illinois Institute of Technology, University of Buffalo, Syracuse University, University of Washington, University of Oregon, University of Arizona, and many others.

  • Postmodern Landscape Architecture: Theoretical, Compositional Characteristics and Design Elements with the Analysis of 25 Projects
    ACTA UNIVERSITATIS SAPIENTIAE AGRICULTURE AND ENVIRONMENT, 7 (2015) 7181 DOI: 10.1515/ausae-2015-0006 Postmodern landscape architecture: theoretical, compositional characteristics and design elements with the analysis of 25 projects Anna EPLÉNYI, Brigitta OLÁH-CHRISTIAN Department of Garden History and Landscape Techniques Faculty of Landscape Architecture, Corvinus University of Budapest e-mail: [email protected], [email protected] Manuscript received April 25, 2015; revised May 29, 2015; accepted June 30, 2015 Abstract: This paper endeavours to highlight three aspects of postmodern landscape design: theoretical basis, composition and design elements. Postmodern theories, philosophy influenced the language of the postmodern landscape architecture and got materialized in the use of narratives, eclecticism, the Rhizome-principle. Postmodern landscape composition can be associated with anti-hierarchy, unusual structures, landforms, and playful moods. Postmodern design elements consist of the strong graphical use of colour and pavements, bizarre water features, unusual structures and buildings, postmodern sculptures and thematic garden details. 25 analysed projects try to capture the essence of postmodernism in landscape architecture as well as to reveal points of intersection within these projects. Keywords: landscape history, landscape design, comparative analysis Introduction There are numberless works discussing postmodernism, but, if we view these in relation to landscape architecture, we will soon realize that there are many gaps to be filled. This fact is even more intriguing since one of the best known theorists of postmodernism, C. Jencks, whose famous gardens, landscape designs have made him one of the leading figures in British landscape architecture, discusses postmodernism in The Language of Post-Modern Architecture solely from the perspective of architecture >1@.

  • Field of Study Focus: Architecture Advising Resource GENERAL DESCRIPTION Architecture Is the Art and Science of Designing Buildings and Structures
    Field of Study Focus: Architecture Advising Resource GENERAL DESCRIPTION Architecture is the art and science of designing buildings and structures. A wider definition would include the design of the total built environment, from the macrolevel of town planning, urban design, and landscape architecture to the microlevel of creating furniture. Architecture is both the process and product of planning, designing, and constructing form, space, and ambience that reflect functional, technical, social, and aesthetic considerations. Architectural design usually must address both feasibility and cost for the builder, as well as function and aesthetics for the user. Some programs are theory-based programs while others are design-based programs. COMMON SPECIALIZATIONS ARCHITECTURAL Emphasizes the engineering aspects of the building design and construction process. This is a multidisciplined engineer- ENGINEERING ing approach with a focus on architecture and design. Architectural Engineering includes the design of building systems including electrical, lighting, heating/ventilation/air conditioning (HVAC), and structural systems. ARCHITECTURAL HISTORY Studies the evolution and history of architecture across the world through a consideration of various influences including artistic, cultural, political, economic, and technological. ENVIRONMENTAL DESIGN/ Emphasizes the integration of architecture with the environment to minimize the negative environmental impact of build- SUSTAINABLE DESIGN ings by enhancing efficiency and moderation in the use of materials, energy, and development space. Deals with design that incorporates ecologically sustainable energy and waste systems; energy efficiency, renewable energy, water conserva- tion, indoor air quality, and use of appropriate technology. GENERAL ARCHITECTURE: Prepares one for a professional career as a design specialist or a general practitioner. Employs a range of methodologies, DESIGN, THEORY, METHODS processes and philosophies, techniques, and technologies.

    The School of Architecture Mailing Address School of Architecture 304 Richardson Memorial Building Tulane University New Orleans, LA 70118 Telephone Numbers Administrative Office Dean: Donald F. Gatzke Phone: (504) 865-5389 E-mail: [email protected] The Tulane University School of Architecture degree programs address architecture’s primary concerns: creativity, professional responsibility, technical innovation, and cultural investigations. We offer diverse programs of academic study and professional preparation within a context of rigorous scholarship, artistic sensitivity, environmental awareness, and creative endeavor. The School aims to develop a student’s imaginative and intellectual abilities, and to provide the information and strategies needed to address contemporary challenges. The Architecture curriculum centers on the required design studio sequence, the primary component of each semester. This studio training is coupled with imaginative and comprehensive instruction in architectural history, theory, technology, structures, techniques of representation and professional concerns. As well, the architecture curriculum places emphasis on significant study in the liberal arts and advanced study for upper-level students. Our approach in all coursework emphasizes a variety of theories, points of view, methods, and goals. Our responsibility is not only to enable a student’s development as an architect; but also to further the discourse in our discipline, engage with the culture around us, and stretch the limits of the possible for architecture. HISTORY The first courses in architecture at Tulane University leading to a degree in architectural engineering were offered in 1894 under the direction of Professor William Woodward. At this time only about a dozen schools of Architecture had been established in the United States.
