Experience in Action! DesignBuild in Architecture 05/19/2020 - 09/13/2020

With “Experience in Action!” the Architekturmuseum der TUM presented the largest and most comprehensive exhibition on the DesignBuild topic to date. The term describes a teaching method that is applied at numerous architecture schools around the world in which students plan, design, and then execute projects to a 1:1 scale. Various construction projects result from this, such as residential buildings, cultural institutions, schools, kindergartens and even hospitals. Most of these DesignBuild projects are implemented in the Global South, but also occasionally in deprived areas of the homeland. Review #3 | 2020 DesignBuild has been gaining in significance over recent years because an increasing number of universities are using this method to convey a higher level of practical relevance to their students as well as familiarize them with the social dimension of planning and building.

The exhibition, curated by Vera Simone Bader, displayed sixteen projects from five continents—using plans, graphics, photos, films, and interviews. Rather than the finished products, the associated process occupied the foreground and was divided into four phases: research, dialogue, design, and actual construction; these aspects structured the contents of the exhibition. Project processes were meant to give the visitor a more comprehensive understanding of the method and, at the same time, provide the basis for an in-depth examination of the topic, which may always be subjected to criticism. In addition to interviews with students, teachers, and users, the catalog, which was published in two language editions, gave the impetus to a thoroughly contentious Experience in Action! debate about the DesignBuild methods.

The Architecture Machine The Role of Computers in Architecture 10/14/2020 – 06/06/2021

For the first time in the German speaking countries, the Architekturmuseum der TUM presents a large-scale exhibition on the computer’s influence on architecture. Beginning in the 1960s and ending in the present, the show recounts this fascinating history in four chapters, which sum up key developments of the so-called digital revolution: The computer as a drawing machine, the computer as a design tool, the computer as a medium for storytelling, and the computer as an interactive platform. The fundamental question that guided the two-year research project on which this show is based is simple: has the computer changed architecture, and if so, how?

The exhibition is curated by Teresa Fankhänel and contains more than forty international case studies and projects by architects, artists, engineers and researchers, many of which are collected in such an overview for the first time. In addition to individual projects the show presents a newly researched software timeline, which details the The Architecture Machine. development of all major architectural programs which architects The Role of Computers in Architecture are using today as well as an overview of historical input devices for Teresa Fankhänel and Andres Lepik (Ed.) drawing on the computer.

January–December 2020 It is crucial to understand how the TIE of every city works. Thus, we are constructing and implementing an innovative methodology to map, analyze, and enhance the TIE —a methodology that is applicable to any city or region. This methodology draws on existing expertise developed and successfully implemented to map National Innovation Ecosystems worldwide. It is based on interactive workshops; owing to the Corona pandemic, these have been supplemented by a web survey. In particular, the project aims to identify anchors (key actors, strengths) and processes in each city that are crucial to the development of transport innovation. The aim is to create a strategic infrastructure for urban policy management in the field of urban mobility. This is done by defining tailored policy recommendations to improve the TIE in each of the investigated cities. The project suggests a service that enhances the ability of city leaders, policy makers, industry partners, entrepreneurs, scholars, civic stakeholders, citizens, and others to collectively agree on urban policy decisions that serve mobility interests, are system-wide in their nature, and exploit synergies to achieve agreed TIE goals.

COVID - 19 politics & society and, of course, the coronavirus. Interview by Sophia Pritscher. TESTCENTRE

MEDICAL STAFF Review #3 | 2020 Turning the not-yet-completed BER [Berlin Brandenburg airport] into a coronavirus clinic: With this design, as with the idea of turning

COVID - 19 COVID - 19 TESTCENTRE Buckingham Palace into social housing, you attracted the attention of TESTCENTRE COVID - 19 EMERGENCY TESTCENTRE COVID - 19 the specialist and daily press. They often call it provocative and critical MEDICAL STAFF TESTCENTRE of society but also pragmatic, or inspiringly different. In any case, your architectural designs give rise to discussion, they ask questions, they challenge. What is it all about according to you, what is your intention?

My primary concern is to take a critical look at the architect’s occupational image. The fact that, in the history of architecture, architects and artists have always devoted their work to the improvement of social and political processes is increasingly being forgotten. Today architecture is far too commercial and far too regulated! Architecture is not just a service and does not stand in a vacuum, but always makes a statement about social conceptions of society. The architect has developed into a willing tool Opposite Office has proposed transforming the unopened Berlin Brandenburg to a COVID-19 hospital. of capital. Architecture was and still is political! I believe that our world needs more architecture again, but fewer buildings!

It can be concluded from the above that the profession of architect has changed. In what way? not yet found a role in the 21st century! Other professional groups have The profession of architect has traditionally been conceived in a generalist taken on the role of architects. Even software specialists call themselves way: Master builders of earlier times were responsible for the design, architects these days. The great social tasks inherent to the social visions of structural engineering, construction process, and everything that went Vitruv, Alberti, and Filarete now lie with IT companies. The architects of with it. Since the modern age, the field of activity has steadily shrunk the 21st century are Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, and Jeff Bezos. Do we and new tasks, which specialist planners now handle, have been created. really want to leave it all to these disagreeable characters? Even if you look at university teaching, you will notice a large number of fragmented individual options—from architectural theory, structural What do you propose? theory, construction, design and planning, to urban planning. Moreover, instead of integrated teaching, each chair pursues its own architectural Cancel your Facebook and Instagram accounts and stop shopping at theory. There is seldom a common vision. The course may be very varied, Amazon! Now seriously: We have to place architecture more at the center but it often does not answer the fundamental question of what architecture of political considerations. We are facing the great task of climate change. actually is. Of course, one can argue that a multi-layered and diverse Architecture plays a large part in our carbon footprint. If we really wish definition of architecture is necessary in a pluralistic society, but continual to become more climate-friendly in Germany, then we should design differentiation and specialization have led to an identity crisis within our visions and ideas for our houses! In the conceptions of the political world, profession. Instead of being generalists, we are increasingly degraded to “environmental” architecture is still associated with a thermal insulation being designers. We went from being an artist to being an engineer. Shortly composite system and solar collectors on the roof. If we wish that thereafter we realized that owing to our limited technical knowledge, we something in the legislation changes here too, then architects must also go could not do justice to that. So we were downgraded to planners. We have into politics! 34 35 Back to the airport: Meanwhile, the BER has opened. But the capital’s airport is empty and heavily in debt. Now some people write that a Covid-19 swab site for test volunteers could fill hallways and cash tills. What do you think—with your conversion plan in mind—of such announcements?

I think that the situation is dramatic when I consider that the BER has already swallowed up over seven billion euros and is now being “saved” through tax-financed coronavirus aid. The new airport in Berlin fits in perfectly with German politics. In the paralyzed world of political conceptions, the future seems to have been abolished until further notice. In terms of the ruling parties, fundamental ideas about where we actually want to go are missing. Given the many imminent transformation processes, such as climate change, digitization, and migration, this is more than inauspicious.

In terms of construction planning, the BER was quite a disaster; is there any way to apprehend this major project as an opportunity? Should more interim, transitional, or alternative uses be possible (with Review #3 | 2020 and without coronavirus)? The modular, round emergency cabins are ideal for isolating Covid-19 infected people. All images © Opposite Office One opportunity, for example, would be to understand that our building legislation is somewhat overregulated. Meinhard von Gerkan is not exactly a rookie when it comes to planning. But building in Germany is too complicated! After all, it is not the first project of this size that has encountered difficulties. “Architecture is not

The architecture critic Niklas Maak noted that “the Bauhaus with its just a service and does maxim ‘light, air and sun’, with these almost clinically white rooms that sometimes looked a bit like a hospital” was a reaction to the social not stand in a vacuum, experiences of increasing industrialization in the city and epidemics like the Spanish flu after the First World War. What reactions and developments can we expect or hope for in post-Covid architecture? but always makes a

For this question of the century—indeed, I could speak for at least an hour statement about social on this—the heavy artillery gets a chance: Perhaps we can hope that Mr. Scholz squanders even more money, so that “after Covid-19” a new thrift conceptions of society.” and abstinence will set in within architecture. Low cost, low tech... Back to the primeval hut! I’ve been saying that for a long time. As I mentioned at Benedikt Hartl the beginning: We need more architecture but fewer buildings!

Could you explain this criticism of certain current political decisions in more detail? Isn’t it so that many people are actually dependent on And here we turn to the second criticism, which relates to the type of such support, one could argue? And what does all of this have to do financial help. Instead of a “financial watering can,” a political scheme with architecture? should be developed about what is to be funded, and subsidies should be tied to ethical, social, and sustainability conditions. Denmark is providing Of course, many people are indeed dependent on financial help at this very an example of this: Companies based in tax havens are not receiving any point in time. But I do think that two criticisms may be levelled at current support. Policy that is only selected for a four-year period tends to shift political action from an “architectural” point of view, which definitely problems into the future! In “governance” the question is thus arising includes systemic and conceptual thinking. First: If you see how much whether I should only “react” or also actively shape things. This is where money is being handed out, then at least in retrospect you may well ask politics could learn from us architects: Good architecture finds a solution to why this money was not available earlier for other crises and challenges? handle difficult external influences that, in the end, is even better or more In order to convert to a sustainable economic system and equip our society interesting than without those influences. Transferred to politics, this could for the great challenges of the 21st century—such as the climate crisis, mean, for example, that instead of closing restaurants and compensating social injustices, and integration—more sustainable investments are 75% of their turnover, it would be conceivable to demand takeaway needed! The criticism thus relates to the question of the type of political deliveries to the needy, carers, doctors, and families in return for financial design. Should I only take action during the crisis, when it is almost too assistance. In this way, performed support would be taken into account and late, or take action in advance? social cohesion would be strengthened in times of crisis. 36 37 Places for the Dying

Website: Guidelines—basic propositions www.einfach-bauen.net Six basic propositions underpin the Build Simply strategy. Let us briefly sum these up:

1. Compactness Reduce the building envelope’s surface. Increase structural density. The more compact a building is, the less heat will be transferred through the building envelope. Construction costs will also go down because the proportion of expensive insulated components is smaller.

2. Windows Glass area of the window = 10–15% of the room area requiring daylight penetration. Do without sun protection glazing. In addition to the thermal mass, it is above all the window size that determines whether the interior of the building will remain cool in summer. This value has been optimized for the pilot houses. The glass to floor area ratio is between 10 and 16%. This ensures a sufficient supply of daylight. External sun protection, such as roller shutters or awnings, is not needed.

3. Thermal inertia Heavyweight construction stores thermal energy. The thermal mass cools down during nighttime ventilation Solid, heavy materials behave sluggishly in relation to temperature changes in the environment. In comparison, air possesses only a low thermal storage capacity. This effect can be made use of by technical systems, suchas component activation in combination with geothermal probes, but can also work without any assistance from technology.

4. Robust technology Use robust and slimmed-down technical systems. Take into consideration the behavior of users. Fig. 1. Street view of the three pilot houses in Bad Aibling.

Laura Betz: “immersion”

Melanie Sommerfeld: “discrepancy” Lived Experience of Architectural Space

Lectureship of the Women’s Representative: Questions of Science and Society in Architecture and Urbanism Lecturers: Virginie Roy and Katharina Voigt Summer Semester 2020

The “Architecture Experience” seminar focused on the live experience and embodied exploration of architecture, as well as on its overarching theoretical and scientific framework. A workshop on the multisensory experience of architectural space formed the starting point of the seminar. It invited students to question the predominance of vision in the perception of architecture, nurturing the lived bodily experience through sensorimotor and sensual exploration, tangible encounters with architecture, and tacit, pre-reflexive knowledge of space and experience. The sensory experiencing of architectural spaces was explored in terms of phenomenological research. Various written sources from the fields of philosophy, psychology, architecture theory, behavior and performance studies, among others, were consulted to add the incorporated knowledge on architectural experience to overarching, rather abstract reflection. The relationships between body and architecture, and between human being and world, were discussed on the basis of one’s own physical and sensual experiences as well as these additional sources; when considering architecture in phenomenological terms, the corporeality of the experiencer appears to be of particular importance. The experience gained during the workshop by means of bodywork and by using approaches from contemporary dance formed the foundation of embodied knowledge which, on the one hand, was examined through superordinate reflection and, on the other hand, discussed against the background of theoretical positions in the field.

HOME OF GENERATIONS

Chair of Architectural Design and Participation | Prof. Francis Kéré Winter Semester 2019/20

The current housing crisis in Lisbon provided the context to develop the Home of Generations project. Amid gentrification and a real-estate boom, Lisbon is changing at a fast pace. The project proposed shared accommodation for elderly people who live in the historic Lisbon neighborhood of São Vicente and are affected by the dramatic increase in rental prices. A child daycare center (Bachelor) or community program (Master) would complement Review #3 | 2020 this function, thus creating an intergenerational building. MIX IT UP

Chair of Architectural Design and Participation | Prof. Francis Kéré Summer Semester 2020

Accra, the capital of Ghana, is a booming city in West Africa. The task was to design a mixed-use building in Jamestown, a vibrant quarter that is one of the oldest and historically most important parts of the Ghanaian capital. Jamestown is a multifaceted place, with its popular boxing clubs, fishing harbor, and markets. Historical buildings, such as the Jamestown Fort, Jamestown Lighthouse, and colonial houses coexist with informal structures. The site is located between the seaside and the high street, one of Accra’s main roads, offering a varied potential for living, commercial activities, sport, and leisure. The aim of the MIX IT UP studio was to design a multistory building that would fulfill several functions, providing apartments to Ghanaian families, space for commercial uses, and a community program—such as sports facilities.

Virtual tour of the exhibition available on https://facethefuture.iv.navvis.com/ Review #3 | 2020 During the last fourteen years, Prof. Fritz Frenkler and his team at the All images © Chair of Industrial Design, TUM Chair of Industrial Design engaged in design education and practice that combined a scientific and interdisciplinary way of working and thinking. Following the retirement of Prof. Frenkler at the end of the summer semester of 2020, the associated study program, MSc Industrial Design, is being phased out. This article briefly presents the Chair’s design mindset and education, which will form the basis for the planned Integrative Research Center “Munich Design Institute” and the appointment of several design professorships. The TUM will expand its design research network and further develop its design education. It will give design an even more prominent role than before within TUM.

Why? Shaping our society in a sustainable and viable way There is nothing human-made that cannot be associated with design. Our world is designed. Reducing design solely to formal and aesthetic aspirations is outdated. The key factors are usability and a true need for products, product systems, and services. Design requires an awareness of the societal context and of challenges of our time related to technological developments. It is about devising socially, environmentally and humanly appropriate solutions that have a positive effect on our society and environment. Technology cannot be political, but design (as well as architecture) must be political and take a position. We must all join forces to meet the challenge involved in defending the interests of a decent life. This includes not only producing desired products or services, but also making it clear to companies, where necessary, that a product they wish to bring to market will not work or is not necessary—for example because it is socially questionable or raises environmental issues.

How? Educating the next generation of accomplished designers Designers thus become moderators for societal and industrial changes, arbitrating between usage, production, and environment. The objective is not merely to educate more designers but, rather, personalities who operate in areas where so far designers have not usually been present.

All of a sudden, there it was: massive digitalization at the university. Six members of our TUM Department of Architecture reflect on virtual university teaching from different positions. Review #3 | 2020 A shortened version of the conversation that Davida: “I can only agree with that. In the previous winter semester you took place in November 2020—via Zoom, still had a very steep learning curve and hence went beyond the limits of naturally—is presented on the following pages. The talk included: students Davida your capacity. Nevertheless, you did have a place where you could discuss Zimmermann (hereafter, Davida) and Santiago ideas every day.” Nicolás Mancera Hinestroza (Santi), who were both in Munich at the time of the talk; Sebastian Haß (Sebastian), IT officer of Prof. Auer: “I think that a big problem is the disappearance of student the Department and advisor to the dean of life. Both the TUM campus and, for example, our ‘Weißer Saal’ studio studies, from his home office south of the at the Department of Architecture have been deserted. A friend who is state capital; Professor Thomas Auer (Prof. Auer), at home in Stuttgart during the talk; an architecture professor at the University of Stuttgart rightly said that, and Professor Mark Michaeli (Prof. Michaeli), normally, most of the learning takes place in student workspaces. For my our dean of studies, working from his office part, I also miss the interaction and exchanges with students. I wish to at the TUM main campus.

There’s a lack of social contacts and Prof. Michaeli: “The beginning of the semester was of course different interaction with colleagues.

Master Thesis: Social Utopia

Chair of Urban Architecture | Prof. Dietrich Fink Prof. Auer: I have one more question addressed to you, students, about Student: Lisa Häberle the year abroad: Mark and I come from a generation that engaged in sig- nificantly longer studies.

The thesis deals with the question of whether, and how, the publicly funded apartments. Some of these buildings not only feature typology of large-scale residential construction of the 1970s can be a high amount of subsidized accommodation but also, to this day, transformed in the 21st century to provide an answer to the housing Sarah: “I think that this would be shortening in the wrong place. a high level of resident satisfaction.

The typology of large-scale housing was then examined by using the ring road (“Middle Ring”) in Munich as an example. Various urban planning scenarios Sarah: “Whether we are talking about the year abroad or live interaction, were developed, ensuing from five separate locations along the ring. we can sum up that a lot has been missing in the past few months.

Let‘s take a look into the future: What can we take away from these digi- tal semesters?“

Prof. Michaeli: “I noticed that universities have been exchanging more information with one another again. Why, for example, are city planners from different locations not able to offer a common learning format? This would make specialist knowledge more accessible to students.”

Prof. Auer: “I see this topic with some ambivalence. Yesterday evening I lectured with Florian Nagler in and the week before I lectured in Santiago de Chile. That leads to something excessive, which in the end has little value . At university, however, online teaching formats can also affect learning achievements—and for the better.”

Prof. Michaeli: “The fact that students taught themselves to work diffe- rently at home has an added value. I think model-making is a wonderful example of this. At last, models are no longer built as museum-ready arti- facts, but instead are improvised out of pasta boxes found in the kitchen. Models have again become a way to try things out, to look at something, and then to continue working on.”

Sebastian: “Regardless of whether everything went well or not, ultima- tely the experiment that we were all forced to undergo has been a positive one. And well, architects are particularly suited to learning from experi- ments and prototypes. We can definitely take away some positive things into the future.” 86 Elke Reichel space between research, education and practice.

Study area models, interior models, and design models were produced at a wide variety of scales. The working and environment models were mainly built from pasta and cardboard boxes from the paper waste container. For the submission models, a small circular saw with a vacuum cleaner became the most popular tool. Even if living Status on 10/23/2020 in the midst of the workshop left little opportunity to switch off, design work in your own four walls was intensive and instructive.

Accessibility is an important Chair of Urban Development prerequisite for knowledge exchange and production which, against the Prof. Alain Thierstein, Fabian Wenner, Johannes Moser background of the economy’s transformation into a knowledge economy, has an increasing influence on urban and regional development. Principal: Because of the expansion of high-speed rail (HSR) in many countries Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) —including Germany—in recent decades, HSR stations are now among the Cooperation partner: central access points for national passenger transportation. Through their ILS–Institut für Landes- und accessibility effects, they not only influence the probability of interaction Stadtentwicklungsforschung, Dortmund between locally-established companies and households, but also have the Time frame: potential to catalyze locational decisions and thus affect the spatial structure May 2020–October 2022 itself in the medium to long term. These catalytic effects make HSR a potential instrument of regional planning and policy. This is of high societal and political relevance, particularly against a backdrop of past and future large public investments into HSR infrastructure. In scientific terms, the most interesting question is whether medium and long-term effects of HSR stations, which depend on further influencing factors, can be observed. The recent academic discussion on the assessment of these effects is far from unequivocal and emphasizes the need for further research. Moreover, it focuses on the fast-growing transportation systems in China, Spain, and France; these, however, are only to a limited extent comparable with the German system. In addition, most studies consider the effects of accessibility improvement through aggregated inputs and outputs, while lacking spatially differentiated analyses and local drivers as well as qualitative bottom-up methods. „Hier kann ein From a spatial perspective, we are interested in discontinuous and contrastive effects produced by HSR.
