  • Glenn Murcutt 2002 Laureate Biography
    Glenn Murcutt 2002 Laureate Biography Glenn Murcutt is either one of Australia’s best kept secrets, or one of the world’s most influential architects. Perhaps, both. On the other hand, we should temper “secret” somewhat since he has been the subject of numerous books and magazine articles throughout the world. One of the first definitive works wasGlenn Murcutt Works and Projects by Françoise Fromonot, first published in 1995. In that book, she describes Murcutt as the “first Australian architect whose work has attracted international attention.” His relatively low profile can best be explained by the fact that he works alone, primarily for clients who want houses that are not only environmentally sensitive, but provide privacy and security in a structure that pleases all the senses. In stark contrast to many of his contemporaries, Murcutt has declared, “I am not interested in designing large scale projects. Doing many smaller works provides me with many more opportunities for experimentation. Our building regulations are supposed to prevent the worst; they in fact fail to stop the worst, and at best frustrate the best—they certainly sponsor mediocrity. I’m trying to produce what I call minimal buildings, but buildings that respond to their environment.” “I have had to fight for my architecture. I have fought for it right from the outset because councils have clearly found the work a threat. For many designs I put to council, we either had to resort to a court for the outcome or better, negotiate a satisfactory result, always trying to avoid a compromise. I have had the greatest trouble with planning, building and health department staff, many of whom have backgrounds unrelated to architecture, but offer very conservative judgments in taste and aesthetics.” What manner of man and architect is this who could so openly state his opposition to the people who exercise so much control over what and how things should be built? A look at his colorful family, as well as how and where he was raised is a partial explanation.

  • Government of India Ministry of Jal Shakti Department of Water Resources, River Development & Ganga Rejuvenation (National Water Mission) *****
    Government of India Ministry of Jal Shakti Department of Water Resources, River Development & Ganga Rejuvenation (National Water Mission) ***** National Water Mission (NWM) has initiated a seminar series- ‘Water Talk’ - to promote dialogue and information sharing among participants on variety of water related topics. The ‘Water Talk’ is intended to create awareness, build capacities of stakeholders and to encourage people to become active participants in conservation and saving of water. NWM had already organized five ‘Water-Talks’ on the topics - “Water for All”, “Groundwater” “Water Conservation”, “Ecology Inclusive Economy”, “Agriculture, Groundwater and Energy nexus” and “Water conservation at Hiware Bazaar in Maharashtra and Dewas in Madhya Pradesh” on 22nd March 2019, 1st May 2019, 24th May 2019, 21st June 2019, 19th July 2019 and 23rd August 2019 respectively. 2. Seventh Water Talk in this series was held on 20th September, 2019. Shri Sonam Wangchuk, Founder, Himalayan Institute of Alternatives delivered the Water Talk. Shri Rajiv Ranjan Mishra, DG, NMCG; Officers from CWC, CGWB, NMCG, CSMRS, NWDA and D/o WR, RD & GR and Researchers from various institutes attended the programme. 3. Shri Sonam Wangchuk delivered the talk on ‘Innovation and Water’ and discussed the need of innovative water conservation methods in the terrain of Ladakh. Shri Wangchuk started his talk by explaining the extremities of this region. Ladakh is a cold high altitude dessert. Farming and livelihood depends on the melted water of glaciers, but due to climate change the glaciers which were near to villages have receded far away. He said that most villages face acute water shortage, particularly during the two crucial months of April and May when there is little water in the streams and all the villagers compete to water their newly planted crops.

  • Eco-Rehabilitation of Tribal Villages Through Innovative Design in Water
    Eco-Rehabilitation of tribal villages through Innovative design in water management using Ice-stupa, promoting Farm-stay tourism and passive solar heating system- Joint Inititative of Tribal Affairs and Secmol in Leh The “roof of the world”, the metaphorical description for the physio-geographic region encompassing the Indian Himalayas, is the site of vast freshwater glaciers and the primary source of the major Asian rivers that have sustained life since early human civilisations have inhabited the area. In modern times, these freshwater glaciers are still the primary source of water, and thus the welfare, for over a billion Asian people, especially for the tribal communities of Ladakh who have been perpetually dependent on glacial meltwater in the high-altitude desert. Lying on the northerly fringes of the Himalayan watershed, Ladakh is characterised by distinct geographical and climatic features. Known as a cold desert, Ladakh covers area of 96701 km2 and with an average elevation of 3000 m, having annual annual precipitation100 mm, and extreme temperatures ranges (-30 to 30 Co). Much of the province remains in a cold spell from October-March, with only a third of the year left for agrarian purposes. The villages in the region are settled in small oases in the barren desert, on the banks of a stream, or amongst springs utilising the summertime meltwater. Regardless of its ecosystem services and historical context, reckless human interventions and global climate change have impacted the region immeasurably, in particular due to the escalated rate of warming at higher altitudes. Currently, Himalayan glaciers are receding at an alarming rate, from a few to tens of meters annually.

  • Modular Urbanism: Combining Modular and Multi-Scalar Design Strategies in Creating Sustainable Landscape Architecture Design and Construction Processes
    UNIVERSITY OF CALGARY Modular Urbanism: Combining modular and multi-scalar design strategies in creating sustainable landscape architecture design and construction processes by Gordon Skilling A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ENVIRONMENTAL DESIGN GRADUATE PROGRAM IN ENVIRONMENTAL DESIGN CALGARY, ALBERTA SEPTEMBER, 2020 © Gordon Skilling 2020 ABSTRACT In the continued effort to fulfill its professional mandate to build sustainably, the discipline of landscape architecture has begun the transition from emphasizing site-specific design and construction (a “one-off” approach) towards more expansive methods that better address material efficiencies, life cycle performance, and end of life building practices through redevelopment, adaptive re-use and retrofitting. Within this context, this thesis asks how modular design thinking could offer an alternative approach, especially when combined with the multi-scalar techniques and principles of tactical urbanism and placemaking in the (re)design and construction of sustainable urban spaces. Often thought of as generic, repetitive, and monotonous, with regard to the built environment, this thesis will suggest that modular design thinking, at the site scale, has direct application to landscape architecture in not only (re)activating urban spaces, but in creating meaningful sense of place. Highlights will include three interdisciplinary design case studies, that engaged community, and municipal stakeholders. This thesis will touch on the importance of interdisciplinary practice in the development of novel, specific yet scalable, adaptable yet economical forms of urbanism, and in doing so, develop possible alternative design processes in generating normative practices in landscape architecture design and construction.

  • Innovations in Water Harvesting Technologies & Their Impact in Cold
    8th International Conference on Water Resources and Arid Environments (ICWRAE 8): 482-501 22-24 January 2019, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia Innovations in Water Harvesting Technologies & their Impact in Cold Arid Desert of North-Western Himalaya F.A. Shaheen and S.A. Wani School of Agricultural Economics & Horti-Business Management Sher-e-Kashmir University of Agricultural Sciences and Technology of Kashmir – Shalimar, Srinagar, J&K, India Abstract: As a cold desert with extreme climate and limited precipitation, cold arid desert in North-Western Himalaya struggles to meet its irrigation requirements. In recent years, a historical practice of grafting glaciers and a new innovative technique of building 'ice stupa' have helped communities improve irrigation access and extend the crop calendar. This paper looks at how combining sound science with credible local knowledge is helping people improve climate resilience in geographically disadvantageous areas with harsh environs. Innovative water harvesting technologies need to be up-scaled and refined for greater adaptability and promises great hope for similar geo-climatic regions. Key words: Water harvesting technology Cold arid North-Western Himalaya Climate Change agriculture India INTRODCUTION fragile, inaccessible and marginalized with unique socio- economic and cultural issues.

I use this discussion to broach wider questions concerning modes of appreciating what has traditionally been termed “nature” in light of the current con- dition of what is often called the Anthropocene. I include an example of how this concept has migrated into landscape architecture theory in the work of the German landscape architect Martin Prominski, thereby raising concerns about the historicism this concept entails and discussing the consequences thereof.
