  • INTERVENTIONS in CONTEMPORARY URBAN SITUATIONS Kees Christiaanse
    The 5th International Conference of the International Forum on Urbanism (IFoU) 2011 National University of Singapore, Department of Architecture Global Visions: Risks and Opportunities for the Urban Planet INTERVENTIONS IN CONTEMPORARY URBAN SITUATIONS Kees Christiaanse The above title contains two words that play a key-role for understanding the operation of urban design and planning as a pro-active force with a concrete impact. “Intervention” indicates that influence on urbanization in general is exerted by targeted actions within a limited field, and “Situation” indicates that any given urban condition is a transient and dynamic balance between the forces of the moment. Today, there exists a general consensus about the fact that the city does not let itself be designed but merely steered in a limited way. The production of built environment takes place according to precise rules, consisting of natural processes and man-made conventions and regulations, of which economic drivers and consequently the stocks and flows of people, goods and information are predominant. However, many examples of big interventions, I call them “grands projèts”, can be found in the history of urbanization, showing that the conscious exertion of influence by man on his built environment can reach considerable degrees of control. We cannot only see this in Hausmann‟s Paris or the European high-speed rail network, but also in the self-conscious development of an island like Singapore (Fig 1). Fig 1 Singapore, Santosa construction Site 1 It is not easy to conceive a theoretical model for contemporary urbanization - a reduced representation of a far more complex constellation of systems - as a framework for understanding.

  • Competitive Campuses’ Is an International Conference Hosted by the NTNU in Trondheim in Conjunction with ETH Zürich and Sasaki Associates in Boston
    International Conference Trondheim, Norway, June 13-15, 2007 Exploiting the European Advantage through Planning Strategy and Design Competitive The Challenge for European Universities CampusesCampuses WWelcomeelceomlce ome ‘Competitive Campuses’ is an international conference hosted by the NTNU in Trondheim in conjunction with ETH Zürich and Sasaki Associates in Boston. It offers a platform on which architects and planners can exchange critical and visionary perspectives on campus developments with representatives from the political, economic and social sectors. The conference is oriented towards specialists in the field of architecture, urban design and planning, real estate and knowledge management, and is open to the public. The conference focuses on university campuses, from the revitalization of mono-functional campuses to new concepts that stimulate interaction and integration with the city. Today we experience the simultaneous emergence of two contradictory trends: on the one hand the trend to create projects that reconcile and reintegrate large-scale institutions with the surrounding urban tissue into open, communicative structures, on the other hand the trend towards ‘gated-ness’, the increasing seclusion under the influence of efficiency, economy and (social) security. That these trends are not entirely counterproductive and sometimes even are complementary is shown in several contemporary campus concepts. What kind of spatial organization promotes internal knowledge transfer and social interaction while simultaneously integrating with the surrounding urban environment? Which strategies are needed to create sustainable centers of knowledge that are flexible enough to respond to the fast changing demands of industry and society? These are but a few of the questions we hope to address in the ‘Competitive Campuses’ conference.
