Social Urban Regeneration SOCIAL URBAN REGENERATION Postgraduate course 2018 SOCIAL URBAN REGENERATION Postgraduate Diploma of Architecture and Urbanism 2018 SOCIAL URBAN REGENERATION Postgraduate Diploma of Architecture and Urbanism 2018 January 2018 - March 2018 10 weeks ECTS Credits: 30 Language: English Hours: Monday to Friday from 10h - 19h Qualication: Postgraduate diploma of Architecture and Urbanism, degree issued by Universitat Politécnica de Catalunya (UPC) Fee: 3500 € Trip to Paris: not included Presentation The Enric Miralles Foundation and the Universitat Politécnica de Catalunya (UPC) are collaborating to host a specialized course in the process of integrated urban regeneration. Based on the way of thinking and working of Enric Miralles and learning his methodology and his technique, and by joining the way of doing of Miralles Tagliabue EMBT the students will specialize on contemporary sustainable integrated urbanism. The course aims to give students the necessary skills to develop an urban project from start to finish, participants will create their own proposals for the “2017 Grand Paris Clichy-Montfermeil suburbs of Paris” project by integrating all necessary theoretical and practical aspects on urbanism and creative design development. Overview The course integrates theory, practice and design and the disciplines of architecture and the city with the analytical discipline of research, while maintaining a timely relevance to the contemporary world’s challenges of inter-disciplinary knowledge, sustainable urbanism, social inclusion and exclusion, architecture and computing, spatial cognition, the physical and immaterial dimensions of social networks, and a user-centred approach to design innovation. The program is structured in 9 subjects and special master- classes. Every subject is both theoretical (mornings) and practical (afternoons). We believe in “making while thinking” and generate open discussions. 3 Case of study - The students will develop their own proposal for La Grand Paris (www.societedugrandparis.fr/english). Clichy-Montfermeil metro station The Grand Paris is an ambitious project to modernize the existing transport network and create a new automatic metro – the Grand Paris Express for the Paris metropolitan area. New significant urban projects are planned to complete the works for this infrastructure. The station of Clichy Montfermeil and the above surrounding urban space is a particular case because it has a symbolic public intervention in a suburb area that was forgotten and abandoned during a long time. This neighborhood was the scene of the violent riots that occurred in October and November 2005 when cars and public buildings were burnt. A new station of the Grand Paris Express will be a symbol of the change for these areas. The project includes the underground station and also the planning of the new square that is to become a central pole in a renewed neighborhood. It will provide an easy access to the inhabitants their working places all over the Ille de France and in the same time will be a source of Urban renewal and mixed use area. For its relevance, this station is considered as emblematic for the Grand Paris and the social side of the project has been enhanced. 4 5 Fundació Enric The Enric Miralles Foundation is an open space in which the legacy of Enric´s work can continue to inspire new Miralles generations of architects to experiment and explore. It is based on methods of inquiry established by Enric and is conceived of as a platform for the promotion of knowledge. The archive includes all project drawings, sketches, notes, photographs, correspondence and approximately one thousand original models. This archive will give the public insight into Enric´s unique intellectual and architectonic design process and will be completely integrated into the Fundation´s activities. In addition to housing the archive of Enric Miralles, the Foundation will promote programs, workshops, courses, conferences, lectures, and international exchanges. 6 Registration Registration will be in order of arrival.

  • 20 Years in Spain
    20 YEARS IN SPAIN 1993-2013 Few of us would have imagined that 20 years after we opened a small office in Madrid we would be looking back on our contributions to some of the most innovative and influential projects that have been realized in Spain over that period. Probably none of us would have foreseen that five years after the onset of a lingering global financial crisis we would have a thriving multi- disciplinary Spanish practice, advising, planning, designing and supervising the delivery of projects all over the world. We are tremendously proud of the achievements of our colleagues in Spain over these 20 years and are confident that they will go on to achieve more great things in the next 20. Gregory Hodkinson Arup Group Board 20 YEARS IN SPAIN 1993 - 2013 At the service of life Arup has been able to successfully combine the small with the large, engineering with architecture and Scandinavian democracy with British empiricism. The firm, started in 1946 by the Danish engineer, Ove Arup, and founded in its present form in 1963 with the British architect, Philip Dowson, celebrates its first twenty years in Spain as mindful of its legacy as it is to its future. Those who have made many iconic works possible in recent decades are also responsible for minimal works in harsh and demanding social and technical environments, because as much talent is required to build a small bridge in a remote region of China as it is to erect a skyscraper in Europe. It is a saga of mythical engineers of the likes of the late-lamented Peter Rice – without

  • Scottish Parliament Building Edinburgh, Scotland
    Scottish Parliament Building Client: Location: Edinburgh, Scotland Date: Typology: In 1998 EMBT won the bid to design the new Edinburgh Parliament building. The Architect: proposal generated great enthusiasm due to its organic capacity to combine existing Project directors: elements with new technologies through the contemporary and unique language of the Design team: Barcelona studio. The project’s development centered on reflecting the characteristics Gross floor area: of the country and its inhabitants via a new way of building that was directly linked to the land itself. This close tie to the site and its setting would, when the adjacent distillery is demolished, enable the generation of multiple perspective lines on the city. Intentionally, a contrast is sought, a conceptual distance, between the new construction and Holyrood Palace, the twelfth-century royal residence that has been renovated many times. Unlike the palace, which dominates the landscape, the new Scottish Parliament drops literally into the hillside terrain, the lowest part of Arthur’s Seat, and appears to sprout from the living stone.

  • Press Release Mclaren Technology Centre Shortlisted for 2005 Stirling Prize
    Press release 27 July 2005 McLaren Technology Centre shortlisted for 2005 Stirling Prize Foster and Partners McLaren Technology Centre has been included on the six project shortlist of the coveted RIBA Stirling Prize, which is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year. The Royal Institute of British Architects presents the award annually to "the building which has made the greatest contribution to British Architecture in the past year." The McLaren Technology Centre is a showcase for technology and innovation. As well as providing the current technical team with the most sophisticated equipment to optimise its performance, the state-of-the-art facility also acts as an incentive to attract and retain the best engineering talent in the world, providing an impetus for the designers of the future. It is sensitively sited within the surrounding countryside and uses water from the dramatic lake and reed beds to naturally cool the building. The design was driven by a desire to create a sustainable and ecologically-friendly, flexible and pleasant working environment for a wide range of different functions. The McLaren Technology Centre centralises the majority of the McLaren Group's activities under one roof, in a facility that includes design studios, laboratories, research and testing capabilities, electronics development, machine shops and prototyping and production facilities for the company's Team McLaren Mercedes Formula 1 cars and the Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren. Other projects included on the shortlist are Enric Miralles and RMJM's Scottish Parliament in Edinburgh, Zaha Hadid's BMW Central Building in Leipzig, Bennetts Associates' Brighton Library, Alsop Design's Fawood Children's Centre and O'Donnell + Tuomey's Lewis Gluckman Gallery in Cork.
