Frei Otto’s Pneumatic Experiments for Humanitarian Design Abstract This paper will explore the intersection of building technology and humanitarian design-science research by looking at Frei Otto’s pneumatic experiments. The purpose of the study is to contextualize our contemporary demands for humanitarian design work by reflecting upon the manner by which Otto integrated an ambitious design ideology with an elevated and innovative technical acumen.

The colourful diversity 1984 of this architectural vocabulary challenged previous ideas of living in the modern world. 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. Even at the design stage, some were already attracting criticism as artistically misguided, and significant examples of this era in architecture have since disappeared, been revamped or else threatened by demolition. By around three hundred prints, mod- els, photographs, paintings, films, and tactile models, the exhibition examines for the first time the build- ings and visions in East and West Berlin that were developed in the final decade before the fall of the Manfred Prasser, Dieter Bankert, Walter Schwarz, Friedrichstadtpalast, kurz nach seiner Eröffnung im Jahr Foto: © Unbekannte*r Fotograf*in / Berlinische Galerie, Digitalisierung: Anja Elisabeth Witte Berlin Wall.
  • The Tragedy of the Megastructure

    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 A RESEARCH ON A RECONFIGURABLE HYPAR STRUCTURE FOR ARCHITECTURAL APPLICATIONS Kinetic design strategy is a way to obtain remarkable applications in architecture. These kinetic designs can offer more advantages compared to conventional ones. Basic knowledge of different disciplines is necessary to generate kinetic designs. In other words, interdisciplinary studies are critical.

Chicago, IL (March 23, 2015) — Frei Otto has received the 2015 Pritzker Architecture Prize, Tom Pritzker announced today. Mr. Pritzker is Chairman and President of The Hyatt Foundation, which sponsors the prize. Mr. Pritzker said: “Our jury was clear that, in their view, Frei Otto’s career is a model for generations of architects and his influence will continue to be felt. The news of his passing is very sad, unprecedented in the history of the prize. We are grateful that the jury awarded him the prize while he was alive. Fortunately, after the jury decision, representatives of the prize traveled to Mr. Otto’s home and were able to meet with Mr. Otto to share the news with him. At this year’s Pritzker Prize award ceremony in Miami on May 15 we will celebrate his life and timeless work.” Mr.

Establishing Kuwait’s as modern, democratic, and independent nation, paradoxically, depended on a network of international organizations, foreign consultants, and world-renowned architects to build a series of architectural projects with a hybrid of local and foreign forms and functions to produce a convincing image of Kuwait national autonomy. Kuwait nationalism relied on architecture’s ability, as an art medium, to produce a seamless image of Kuwait as a modern country and led to citing it as one of the most democratic states in the Middle East. The construction of all major projects of Kuwait’s nation building followed a similar path; for example, all mashare’e kubra [major projects] of the state that started early 1960s included particular geometries, monumental forms, and symbolic elements inspired by the vernacular life of Kuwait to establish its legitimacy.

The jury is committed to the prize and the best. They are committed to the mission of the prize before any other. There’s no benefit for the jury in engaging in politics.” But as anyone knows, anytime there’s a group of people, there are politics. Since the inception of the Pritzker Architecture Prize by Jay and Cindy Pritzker, which was first given to Phillip Johnson in 1979, the influential prize has been synonymous as the “Nobel Prize for architects.” There’s no doubt that the winners are some of most influential architects from I.
