  • From Manufacturing Industries to a Services Economy: the Emergence of a 'New Manchester' in the Nineteen Sixties
    Introductory essay, Making Post-war Manchester: Visions of an Unmade City, May 2016 From Manufacturing Industries to a Services Economy: The Emergence of a ‘New Manchester’ in the Nineteen Sixties Martin Dodge, Department of Geography, University of Manchester Richard Brook, Manchester School of Architecture ‘Manchester is primarily an industrial city; it relies for its prosperity - more perhaps than any other town in the country - on full employment in local industries manufacturing for national and international markets.’ (Rowland Nicholas, 1945, City of Manchester Plan, p.97) ‘Between 1966 and 1972, one in three manual jobs in manufacturing were lost and one quarter of all factories and workshops closed. … Losses in manufacturing employment, however, were accompanied (although not replaced in the same numbers) by a growth in service occupations.’ (Alan Kidd, 2006, Manchester: A History, p.192) Economic Decline, Social Change, Demographic Shifts During the post-war decades Manchester went through the socially painful process of economic restructuring, switching from a labour market based primarily on manufacturing and engineering to one in which services sector employment dominated. While parts of Manchester’s economy were thriving from the late 1950s, having recovered from the deep austerity period after the War, with shipping trade into the docks at Salford buoyant and Trafford Park still a hive of activity, the ineluctable contraction of the cotton industry was a serious threat to the Manchester and regional textile economy. Despite efforts to stem the tide, the textile mills in 1 Manchester and especially in the surrounding satellite towns were closing with knock on effects on associated warehousing and distribution functions.

  • “How Do We Live?” Housing Workshop / London 2019 11Th April — 18Th April 2019 Jocelyn Froimovich, Johanna Muszbek University of Liverpool in London
    “How Do We Live?” Housing Workshop / London 2019 11th April — 18th April 2019 Jocelyn Froimovich, Johanna Muszbek University of Liverpool in London Housing design never starts afresh; housing design operates through variation, iteration, and/or mutation of prior examples. The series of workshops “How do we live?” venture into a typological investigation, with the expectation that types can provide a framework to deal with complex urban variables. By understanding the particulars in the production of a housing type, the architect can manipulate and reorganise—invent. This workshop will discuss housing types, exemplary of a particular city in its making. By looking at past exemplary projects ant today’s market offer, the goal is to observe, analyse, participate and hopefully interfere in the production system of the urban. Rather than dismissing examples of the current housing offer as “bastard” architecture, it is assumed that these housing types portray specific subjects, their living and urban conditions; the politics, policies, and socio economic factors that lead into developing a particular urban setting. Thus, the goal of the studio is to design new housing types that expand the existing housing repertoire. These new types will respond to current and future lifestyles and contribute to resolve specific urban demands. The question for this workshop is: what defines the housing crisis of London today? By forcing the notion of crisis as a methodology, each student will question a specific London housing type and propose alternative designs for each of them. For this workshop, the notion of “crisis” will be used as an operative term. “Crisis” is understood as a turning point, a time when a difficult or important decision must be made.

  • Beauty and the Brutalists: Why the Most Maligned Style in History Should Be Preserved | Financial Times
    19-3-2021 Beauty and the Brutalists: why the most maligned style in history should be preserved | Financial Times Architecture Beauty and the Brutalists: why the most maligned style in history should be preserved Brutalist buildings around the world are endangered or lie derelict — even Donald Trump dislikes them Edwin Heathcote JANUARY 15 2021 Donald Trump might now forever be associated with classical architecture, just not necessarily in the way he would have wanted. The image of rioters storming the Capitol building in Washington, DC, this month, snapping selfies and stealing souvenirs, will be the indelible final memory of his tempestuous presidency. But one of his last acts in office was to issue an executive order that new federal buildings must be built in a classical style. What they should not be, it specified, is Brutalist. This is how it was defined: “Brutalist means the style of architecture that grew out of the early 20th-century Modernist movement that is characterised by a massive and block-like appearance with a rigid geometric style and large-scale use of exposed poured concrete.” For a big builder, Trump seems to have misunderstood the moment. Brutalism has been over as a way of building for about 40 years. No new US government buildings are in danger of being Brutalist. Perhaps he was thinking of the J Edgar Hoover Building, the FBI HQ a block away from the Trump International Hotel. The chunky concrete building has always been unpopular. https://www.ft.com/content/56088f69-cb96-4344-86c2-23d383274013 1/13 19-3-2021 Beauty and the Brutalists: why the most maligned style in history should be preserved | Financial Times The Brutalist FBI headquarters in Washington, DC, has always been unpopular © Alamy Stock Photo Not only is Brutalism no longer an applicable style, but hundreds of its best buildings are in danger of being lost forever through neglect, ignorance and laziness.

  • C20 CA Project Short Reports on Potential Conservation Areas
    Conservation Areas Project Potential Conservation Areas Short Reports December 2017 CONTENTS 1.0 Introduction Section 10.3.2 of the Brief for the Twentieth Century Society Conservation Areas Project requires the research consultants ‘to prepare summaries of around 50 areas that have potential for future conservation area status, providing information on their location, the architect, date of construction, borough, one or two images and a short paragraph about the site’. These short reports are listed in Section 2.0 below, and the full reports follow, in numerical order. All the short reports follow a standard format which was agreed by the Steering Group for the Project (see appendix 3 of the Scoping Report). The reports are intended principally as identifiers not as full descriptions. In line with the research strategy, they are the result of a desk-based assessment. The historic information is derived mainly from secondary sources and the pictures are taken largely from the Web (and no copyright clearance for future publication has been obtained). No specific boundaries are suggested for the potential conservation areas because any more formal proposals clearly need to be based on thorough research and site inspection. 2.0 List of Potential Conservation Areas Historic County Area Name Local Planning Record Authority Number Berkshire Blossom Avenue, Theale West Berkshire 01 Buckinghamshire Energy World Milton Keynes 02 Buckinghamshire Woolstone Milton Keynes 03 Cheshire The Brow, Runcorn Halton 04 Devon Sladnor Park Torquay 05 Dorset

Future Cities and DQG(QYLURQPHQW Environment, 4(1): 16, 1–24. DOI: https://doi.org/10.5334/fce.47 TECHNICAL ARTICLE Spatial Delight and Environmental Performance of Modernist Architecture in London – Golden Lane Estate Rosa Schiano-Phan*, Benson Lau*, Deependra Pourel† and Sharmeen Khan-Phatan* This paper investigated the spatial delight and environmental performance of the open spaces and two selected apartments in the modernist buildings at Golden Lane Estate built after the 2nd World War, between 1952 and 1961. This estate is a Grade II listed, high density, low cost housing complex designed by three young architects: Peter Chamberlin, Geoffrey Powell and Christof Bon. It was built over a bombed site and well embraced the post-war modern architecture ethos, environmental considerations and inclusion of social facilities and landscaped communal spaces. Selected communal open spaces and two apartments in different building blocks with similar attributes were chosen for this study. However, one apartment has been refurbished with internal insulation and secondary glazing for improving the comfort conditions. Through fieldwork, which included subjective observation of the spatial quality of both out- door and indoor spaces, on-site monitoring and interview of the building occupants, first-hand information on the environmental and comfort conditions inside the apartments were obtained. Through performance based theoretical analysis, archival research and observations, the spatial quality and comfort conditions in the apartments and their energy demand were critically assessed. The research findings indicate that the design of the communal outdoor spaces in the Golden Lane Estate were well thought through and the spacing between the building blocks responded well to the requirements of spatial delight, solar and daylight access and outdoor environmental comfort.

  • Stories in the Sky VR: Immersive Storytelling, Heritage-Led Stakeholder Engagement, and Community Fatigue
    Stories in the Sky VR: Immersive storytelling, heritage-led stakeholder engagement, and community fatigue Joseph Thomas Empsall Masters by Research University of York Archaeology September 2020 Abstract Stories in the Sky VR was a prototype immersive storytelling experience focusing on Park Hill, Sheffield. The project explored the way that immersive technologies can be used as part of heritage-led community engagement, as a means to articulate intangible heritage. Park Hill represents one of the most divisive buildings in the country; it was regarded as a success in the 1960s, saw a period of dramatic decline in the 1980s and 1990s, and is currently being regenerated by Urban Splash, following the estate’s Grade II* listing in 1998. Through its redevelopment, Park Hill has not only seen an overhaul in its design, but also in the community that now calls the estate home, having transitioned from council estate to gentrified flats. Park Hill represented an ideal testing ground to investigate the potential of immersive technologies, with storytelling embedded in these “flats of the future” since their inception. While the listing details the estate’s value derives from its innovative design, Park Hill also has strong roots in the intangible, through its sense of enduring community, identities, and experiences. Stories in the Sky VR attempted to implement a “bottom-up” approach, giving the stakeholders more control over the narrative and nature of the immersive experience. Ultimately, this proved difficult to achieve, with the fatigue of interviews and tourism having soured large-scale interest in these types of projects. In place of new interviews, previously recorded oral testimonies were utilised to shape the focus of the immersive experience.
