Arquiteturas2016 Rehabnation12-16October I Program ARQUITETURAS2016 REHABNATION12-16OCTOBER I PROGRAM THEREʼS NO CINEMA WITHOUT ARCHITECTURE ARQUITETURASFILMFESTIVAL.COM I 1 ABOUT ARQUITETURAS FILM FESTIVAL is an international showcase of documentary, experimental and fiction films on the theme of architecture. The program that has been developed for this festival, since its creation in 2013, feeds on the infinite possibilities for the communication and promotion of architecture through cinema and audiovisual production in general. The festival seeks to take advantage of the extensive network of contacts that has arisen among other Architecture Film Festivals around the world, to enhance the projection of films highly relevant to the transmission of Portuguese architectural culture, not only in Portugal but also especially internationally. I 3 4TH EDITION - REHAB NATION In a broader sense, the word rehabilitation usually has a positive connotation. Especially in the context of architecture or the built environment: it always implies a process of regeneration, the termination of a previous condition of abandonment or destruction and the beginning of a new and improved stage in the life of a certain building or construction. However, when we see this word applied to a moment in a person’s life, we usually associate it with a condition that’s always difficult: it corresponds to an arduous process of recovery from addictions, compulsions or destructive behaviors. In this sense, rehabilitation suggests both a treatment and penitence. When we apply this concept of “rehabilitation” to a whole city, territory or nation, what are the implications that might be attached to it? As eventual citizens of a hypothetical “rehab nation”, might we be condemned to live in a permanent state of recovery? Always adapting to some sort of crisis, adversity or struggle, but never really expecting to definitively overcome it? For this edition of the program, ARQUITETURAS is presenting films that explore the wide range of connotations that might be associated with the expression “REHAB NATION”. From the rehabilitation of old city centers to the gentrification of touristy neighborhoods; from the dereliction of social housing to the construction of new senses of community; from the privatization of public space to the emergence of news forms of urban intervention. The possibilities are endless and “REHAB NATION” functions as an extensive pretext to think and debate the way we currently live in our spaces and our cities. The festival will have its presentation on 5th October at 16:00, as part of the public opening program of the new building of the museum MAAT - Museum of Art, Architecture and Technology. As warm up, and in partnership with Roca Lisbon Gallery, ARQUITETURAS will present on 10th and 11th October the premiere of two documentaries about Portuguese architects of relevance: Álvaro Siza and Carvalho Araújo. The official opening night of ARQUITETURAS will take place in LISBON FORUM (formerly Cinema Roma) on October 12th at 19:00, with the screening of the film “Apropos of Leixões”. The film is accompanied by a soundtrack of the live band Torto.

I 7 ARCHITETURE FILM FESTIVAL GUEST ISTANBUL INTERNATIONAL ARCHITECTURE AND URBAN FILMS FESTIVAL (Turkey) Since its establishment on 1954, the Chamber of Architects of Istanbul has presented a wide range of cultural events regarding the development of architectural culture, preservation of historical heritage, and the improvement of quality of life. To add a new dimension to these efforts, since 2007, it has launched an organization titled “Istanbul International Architecture and Urban Films Festival”. This organization is planned to ensure the participation of all diverse disciplines that are interested in this area, particularly architects. The festival is programmed within the scope of the “Architecture and Urban Festival”, that is realized by the Istanbul Branch of the Istanbul Chamber of Architects on the occasion of the “World Day of Architecture.” The World Day of Architecture is widely celebrated in the world on the first Monday of the month of October. The scope of the festival covers documentary films and animation. The films that have participated in the festival from Turkey and abroad, and which have been successful in the preliminary selection, are shown to the audience and a competition is applied among those films. Furthermore, in order to encourage exchange of ideas among the participants, various conversations and activities are organized. This year we had the pleasure of hosting in Istanbul the films from our sister festival Arquiteturas Film Festival Lisbon with a special Gala opening and the screening of 7 movies in 5 sessions as part of our annual Urban Dreams Workshop parallel events. And now we are growing this relationship here in Lisbon with 4 films selected from our competition for the Lisbon audience: (Selma Erdem, Istanbul International Architecture and Urban Films Festival) I 8 HAN I INN Highlighting the significance of heritage protection, Inn successfully investigates property issues through the story of a 17th century commercial building in the Historic Peninsula of Istanbul.

Housing policies, market and home ownership in Portugal 1 Housing policies, market and home ownership in Portugal Beyond the cultural model Teresa Costa Pinto and Isabel Guerra Introduction 1 In previous articles (Pinto, 2017 ; Pinto and Guerra, 2013) on the dynamics of the Portuguese housing system, the specificity of the Portuguese case in the context of Southern European countries was pointed out, according to the literature on this subject, suggesting the formation of a cluster, characterized by an incipient welfare state, high rates of housing ownership, supported by a “welfare society”, and a residual sector of social housing (Allen et al, 2004). It was argued that the specificity of the Portuguese system was, on the one hand, a late but intense urbanization process, exerting strong constructive pressures on cities (especially since the 1960s), combined with an insufficient supply of housing, both private and public. On the other hand, a late and fragile development of a welfare state, in counter cycle, in the context of a general questioning of its sustainability.

Widely labelled “postmodern”, it drew on structural typologies and stylistic devices from the past and tested alterna- tive urban lifestyles. In the run-up to the celebrations marking 750 years since the original town charter, the entries submitted to the “Internationale Bauausstel- lung” in West Berlin in 1984/87 and the “Bauausstel- lung” of 1987 in East Berlin turned the city into a kind of architectural laboratory observed from well beyond its boundaries.

  • The Tragedy of the Megastructure
    105 Megastructures 3 | 2018 | 1 The Tragedy of the Megastructure Valentin Bourdon PhD Candidate École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne [email protected] Valentin Bourdon is a PhD student at the Laboratory of Construction and Conservation (LCC) EPFL since 2017. His research explores the architectural challenges of the common space. In support of significant historical experiences, and contemporary subjects, such a project aims to help overcome the delay taken by architecture comparing to other disciplines in the appropriation of the notion of ‘common’. ABSTRACT Relating the megastructure to the issue of the commons is a useful exercise to understand the success and the disappearance of what Peter Reyner Banham called the “dinosaurs of the Modern Movement”. All these large-scale constructions suffered the same fate: a conflict between the promise of a large shared space and the temptation of its fragmentation. This quantitative quandary is also raised in another field by Garrett Hardin in 1968 as the ‘enclosure dilemma’. The publication of his article “The Tragedy of the Commons” sparked a broad controversy coinciding with the megastructure’s momentum. By assessing a number of theoretical correspondences, the article reexamines the impact of megastructures on the interdisciplinary debates of the time. It also considers the relationship between architecture and property as one of the possible–and tragically coincident–reasons for their success and dissolution. https://doi.org/10.6092/issn.2611-0075/8523 ISSN 2611-0075 Copyright © 2018 Valentin Bourdon 4.0 KEYWORDS Megastructure; Commons; Ownership; Enclosure; Anti-enclosure.

Abstract: Stable access to affordable quality housing is a core feature of public health principles and practices. In this report, we provide an update on the research project “Mapping Public Housing: A Critical Review of the State-subsidised Residential Architecture in Portugal (1910–1974)” (MdH), developed between 2016 and 2019 at the Faculty of Architecture of the University of Porto (FAUP) in Portugal. This funded research project (PTDC/CPC-HAT/1688/2014) brought together an international and multidisciplinary team composed of architects, sociologists, historians, an economist, an anthro- pologist, information scientists and archivists, from different academic levels (senior researchers, postdoctoral, PhD and Master’s degree students), adopting a variety of approaches and operating in a range of different contexts. The aim of the research undertaken was to investigate the reality of social and state-subsidised housing in terms of its architecture, while, at the same time, seeking to broaden our understanding of this phenomenon and of the transition to a democratic regime. Furthermore, this research project was designed to contribute towards the development of common ground for supporting decisions in the environmental, social and economic fields relating to housing Citation: Ramos, R.J.G.; Gonçalves, E.; Lameira, G.; Rocha, L.
