    TEACHING-LEARNING-RESEARCH: DESIGN AND ENVIRONMENTS • Paper / Proposal Title: Innovation in research & education pedagogies: the Transitional Territories Studio three years’ experience on the North Sea • Author(s) Name: Luisa Maria Calabrese, Taneha Kuzniecow Bacchin • University or Company Affiliation: Delft University of Technology, Faculty of Architecture and the Built Environment, Department of Urbanism, Section of Urban Design • Abstract (300 words): This paper presents the educational approach embedded in research developed within the framework of the Transitional Territories graduation Studio at the Delft University of Technology, Faculty of Architecture and the Built Environment. Transitional Territories is a cross-domain research and design studio working on the notion of territory as a constructed project across scales, subjects and media. In particular, the studio focuses on the agency of design in territories at risk between land and water (maritime, riverine, delta landscapes), and the dialectical - or inseparable - relation between nature and culture. At the core of the Delta Urbanism Research Group (Section of Urban Design), the studio is embedded within/and supported by the interdisciplinary TU Delft Delta Futures Lab, working in close collaboration with the Faculties of Civil Engineering and Geosciences and Technology, Policy and Management (TUD). Delta Urbanism is an interdisciplinary research program at the Delft University of Technology, which investigates the possibilities to combine flood protection, soil and water

Managing complexity and searching for new ways to tap into the productive energies that make up Urban our rich, global society is both a challenge and an oppor- tunity for every organization, indeed, every person today. One of the key elements to this process is design, which in many ways, is much more than mere problem solving. If an Design organization is to truly make changes in a fast changing world, then thinking about answers is only one part of the equation.

That embarrassment of riches did not necessarily make our city a better place. Urban sprawl was as aggressive as ever. So was traffic. The Raiders played in tragically under- invested South L.A., then called South-Central, and the L.A. Rams….well, they played in Anaheim. It’s no wonder most of us preferred to go to the beach on a Sunday than to a football game. I, for one, was not sad to see the Rams and Raiders leave. Great cities thrive in the minutiae: the blocks, streets, homes, small businesses, and public spaces that delight and enrich their residents on a daily basis.

  • Re-Inventing Water–Ground Relations in Landscape Architecture Projects
    sustainability Article Re-Inventing Water–Ground Relations in Landscape Architecture Projects Fabio Di Carlo *, Alfonso Giancotti and Luca Reale DiAP, Department of Architecture and Design and PhD Program in Landscape and Environment, Sapienza University of Rome, 00185 Rome, Italy; [email protected] (A.G.); [email protected] (L.R.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 14 October 2020; Accepted: 4 December 2020; Published: 11 December 2020 Abstract: In recent decades, the relationship between soil and water has been at the center of many landscape architecture projects and, more in general, of urban transformation. With an ever-increasing recurrence, the interventions reflect on the positive effects of this dialectic, to the point of making it the constitutive element, both in terms of morphologies and of the reciprocal conditions of quality and resilience, combining ecosystem effects and cultural values. This paper thus examines some cases where the use of these elements has assumed the role of “raw material” in those design processes where they are called to specifically question the relationship between nature and human settlements. Three case studies, which with different declinations represent turning points and paradigmatic passages in this context, are here analyzed: the Cultuurpark Westergasfabriek in Amsterdam, the Cheong Gye Cheon canal in Seoul, and the Candlestick Park in the San Francisco Bay. Keywords: landscape architecture; water and ground; water urbanism; Urban Quality of Life (QoL); green infrastructure; natural adaptive processes; phytoremediation 1. Introduction Among the positive visions for cities and metropolitan areas for the third millennium, the work on the dialectic between water and soil plays an increasingly important role in all landscape design activities at various levels.
