Paimio Sanatorium
MARIANNA HE IKINHEIMO ALVAR AALTO’S PAIMIO SANATORIUM PAIMIO AALTO’S ALVAR ARCHITECTURE AND TECHNOLOGY ARCHITECTURE AND TECHNOLOGY: : PAIMIO SANATORIUM ARCHITECTURE AND TECHNOLOGY: Alvar Aalto’s Paimio Sanatorium TIIVISTELMÄ rkkitehti, kuvataiteen maisteri Marianna Heikinheimon arkkitehtuurin histo- rian alaan kuuluva väitöskirja Architecture and Technology: Alvar Aalto’s Paimio A Sanatorium tarkastelee arkkitehtuurin ja teknologian suhdetta suomalaisen mestariarkkitehdin Alvar Aallon suunnittelemassa Paimion parantolassa (1928–1933). Teosta pidetään Aallon uran käännekohtana ja yhtenä maailmansotien välisen moder- nismin kansainvälisesti keskeisimpänä teoksena. Eurooppalainen arkkitehtuuri koki tuolloin valtavan ideologisen muutoksen pyrkiessään vastaamaan yhä nopeammin teollis- tuvan ja kaupungistuvan yhteiskunnan haasteisiin. Aalto tuli kosketuksiin avantgardisti- arkkitehtien kanssa Congrès internationaux d’architecture moderne -järjestön piirissä vuodesta 1929 alkaen. Hän pyrki Paimion parantolassa, siihenastisen uransa haastavim- massa työssä, soveltamaan uutta näkemystään arkkitehtuurista. Työn teoreettisena näkökulmana on ranskalaisen sosiologin Bruno Latourin (1947–) aktiivisesti kehittämä toimijaverkkoteoria, joka korostaa paitsi sosiaalisten, myös materi- aalisten tekijöiden osuutta teknologisten järjestelmien muotoutumisessa. Teorian mukaan sosiaalisten ja materiaalisten toimijoiden välinen suhde ei ole yksisuuntainen, mikä huo- mio avaa kiinnostavia näkökulmia arkkitehtuuritutkimuksen kannalta.

Issue 40: Summer 2009/10
Journal of the Melbourne Cricket Club Library Issue 40, Summer 2009 This Issue From our Summer 2009/10 edition Ken Williams looks at the fi rst Pakistan tour of Australia, 45 years ago. We also pay tribute to Richie Benaud's role in cricket, as he undertakes his last Test series of ball-by-ball commentary and wish him luck in his future endeavours in the cricket media. Ross Perry presents an analysis of Australia's fi rst 16-Test winning streak from October 1999 to March 2001. A future issue of The Yorker will cover their second run of 16 Test victories. We note that part two of Trevor Ruddell's article detailing the development of the rules of Australian football has been delayed until our next issue, which is due around Easter 2010. THE EDITORS Treasures from the Collections The day Don Bradman met his match in Frank Thorn On Saturday, February 25, 1939 a large crowd gathered in the Melbourne District competition throughout the at the Adelaide Oval for the second day’s play in the fi nal 1930s, during which time he captured 266 wickets at 20.20.

Autumn 2020 Newsletter
CRESCAT IN HORAS DOCTRINA The Old Lennensian Newsletter of the Old Lennensians Association Spring Edition April 2020 “All hail! Lennensian, the first of your kind Let your pages be ever the best; And in scanning them o’er let nobody mind Not to find himself there with the rest.” (October 1907) A Word from the Editor When I was writing the Spring newsletter, I was optimistic that the Coronavirus pandemic would be over, that the endless Zoom meetings would be a thing of the past and that the Association would be able to get much more involved in the life of the school. Hindsight is a wonderful thing and the threat to our lifestyle is as powerful and insidious as ever. We have been in regular contact with the school and have offered what support we can in these troubling times. I am delighted to say that Peter Riches has now joined me as a Trustee and that I have become a governor of the school. I say this, not to be boastful or to suggest a tilt at world dominance, but because I believe such appointments give us a better chance to serve the school in ways which the school determine rather than us. I have been impressed with the commitment of the staff and the caring attitude of the pupils in the last weeks and months. Discipline hasn’t been as issue. Young people are often unfairly criticised but they have clearly risen to the occasion during this awful year which will be remembered for all the wrong reasons. -

The Rise and Fall of the Tuberculosis Sanitarium in Response to the White Plague a Thesis Submitted to the Graduate School In
THE RISE AND FALL OF THE TUBERCULOSIS SANITARIUM IN RESPONSE TO THE WHITE PLAGUE A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE MASTER OF SCIENCE HISTORIC PRESERVATION BY ANYA GRAHN (EDWARD WOLNER) BALL STATE UNIVERSITY MUNCIE, INDIANA MAY 2012 Acknowledgements This thesis would not have been possible without the support and encouragement of my thesis committee. I must first thank Architecture Professor Edward Wolner for his patience with me, his guidance, and for sharing his wealth of knowledge about modernist architecture and architects, Johannes Duiker and Alvar Aalto, in particular. Secondly, I am incredibly grateful to History Professor Nina Mjagkij, a former consumptive, for directing my research and organization of this thesis. Finally, I am appreciative of Architecture instructor Cynthia Brubaker’s support of my initial research, eagerness to learn more about tuberculosis sanitariums, and willingness to serve on this committee. I am also thankful to my MSHP colleagues Emily Husted, Kelli Kellerhals, and Chris Allen. The four of us formed a student thesis committee, meeting weekly to set goals for our research and writing, discussing our topics, and keeping one another on task. It is very possible that this thesis would not have been completed without them. I would also like to acknowledge the help provided to me in researching Kneipp Springs Sanitarium. Bridgett Cox at the Hope Springs Library was very helpful, responding to my email requests and introducing me to the Scrapbooks of M.F. Owen: Rome City Area History that played such a pivotal role in my research of this institution. -

Next to this, a pro-active approach is also taken with regard to the identification and documentation of less-represented categories of heritage for inclusion on the World Heritage List. One such category is Modern Heritage, which comprises the architecture, town planning and landscape design of the 19th and 20th centuries. -
Open Corner Loggias Tested Key Interventions That Were Damaging to the Physical Fabric
World Monuments Fund/ Knoll Modernism Prize 2016 AWARD TO Molenaar & Co. architecten, Hebly Theunissen architecten, and Michael van Gessel landscapes For the rehabilitation of the Justus van Effen complex in Rotterdam, the Netherlands Designed and built by Michiel Brinkman 1919-1922 1 Jury Citation The 2016 World Monuments Fund/Knoll Modernism Prize is awarded to Molenaar and Co. architecten, Rotterdam; Hebly Theunissen architecten, Delft; and Michael van Gessel landscapes, Amsterdam for the restoration of the Justus van Effen Complex. Located in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, the complex was designed by Michiel Brinkman in 1919-1921, and completed in 1922. The Justus van Effen complex is a remarkable example of early Modernism, and is emblematic of the ideals embodied in the Modern movement. The concept and execution of these 264 dwellings in Rotterdam’s new Spangen district were impressively novel in 1922. Combining typologies of the perimeter block and the row house, the complex presented by far the most radical response to the pressing post WWI housing shortage in the Netherlands. The boldly cantilevered walkway above the second floor reduced vertical circulation space and tied the complex together, while creating a careful balance between the collective and the private. The flat roofs, sparse and delicate ornamentation, careful contrast of bricks with exposed concrete, and open corner loggias tested key interventions that were damaging to the physical fabric. It elements and strategies of the emerging modern movement. also reflects the technological innovation that founded the original design by introducing state of the art energy-saving In the context of Spangen, a neighborhood that has faced devices for climate control. -
Modernism-Hizuchi.Pdf
2012 award to The Architectural Consortium for Hizuchi Elementary School SUZUKI Hiroyuki, MAGATA Kiyotada, HANADA Yoshiaki, WADA Kouichi, TAKECHI Kazutomi, KOSHIHARA Mikio, and Yawatahama City, OHSHIRO Ichiro, Mayor, for the restoration of Hizuchi Elementary School Yawatahama City, Ehime Prefecture, Japan Designed by MATSUMURA Masatsune 1956–1958 Jury Citation THE 2012 WORLD MONUMENTS FUND/KNOLL MODERNISM PRIZE is awarded to the Architectural Consortium for Hizuchi Elementary School for the restoration of Hizuchi Elementary School. Located in Yawatahama City, Ehime Prefecture, Japan, Hizuchi was designed by MATSUMURA Masatsune, constructed from 1956 to 1958, and restored by the Con- sortium from 2008 to 2009. In its review of the nominations, the jury was delighted to discover an exemplary building in the history of post-war modernist architecture in Japan little known, as yet, outside the country. Even at the time it was built, Hizuchi, a wood-framed modern structure located in a small, relatively re- mote Japanese town, took the Japanese architectural profession by surprise for its originality and conviction. Of local and national significance, Hizuchi Elementary School has been saved and masterfully restored, and has been re-inscribed in national modern architectural history. It can now be recognized internationally as both an extremely fine building and an absolutely impeccable res- toration project. Equally impressive was the process by which the community was engaged, came to re-appre- ciate, and eventually saved the school despite some initial sentiment to tear it down following ex- tensive damage in a 2004 typhoon. It is a living piece of the community once again—where school- children are interacting with a very finely designed building in everything from education and recreation to their part in daily maintenance. -
VW 15 Numbered
No 15, July 8th 2020. The Virtual Wisdener The Newsletter of the Wisden Collectors’ Club hope that readers find the two main arcles in this edion of the VW of interest. I was unsure as to whether I or not to take up space with the 1970 Journal but when I started to read through Tony Lewis’s thoughts on the 1970 season it became an easy choice to make. The full journal will feature in the Virtual Wisdener’s to follow but I will admit that one of the main reasons for re-prin1ng it in full was the reminder that although each years’ Wisden can give us a review of the previous year, it can never really detail - nor does it try - the unfolding season. Reading Lewis’s thoughts on the ‘pro’ and ‘an?’ South AfriCan tour fac?ons and despite thinking that I knew that the tour was CanCelled ‘late’ - it was remarkable to learn that the actual tour was CanCelled well into the English season and the replacement ‘Tests’ against a Rest of The World side, were very has?ly arranged. Could suCh a tour be arranged so quiCkly today? August the 1st is s?ll the day for domes?C CriCket to resume, but nothing really has Changed in the past week apart from the Coun?es agreeing to have both the forms of the game played upon the restart. Without boringly going over the ground from the last VW, in a week, they have deCided one thing and now they are going to disCuss the detail. -
