    8/25/2018 Back to the Futuro: the spaceship house that landed in Yorkshire | Art and design | The Guardian Back to the Futuro: the spaceship house that landed in Yorkshire Dreamed up in Finland and shaped like a flying saucer, Matti Suuronen’s ‘house of the future’ turned out to be an impractical curio but its atomicage aesthetics are still alluring Mark Hodkinson Wed 22 Aug 2018 01.00 EDT ike jetpacks, flying cars and robot butlers, the Futuro was supposed to revolutionise the way we lived. Unlike those other staples of an imagined future, however, this architectural oddity actually existed. A colourful pod in the shape of an ellipse, the Futuro was a sci-fi vision of the future, offering us a living space light years away from what most of us were used to. Nicknamed the Flying L Saucer and the UFO House, it was symbolic of the ambitious space-race era. But as the Futuro celebrates its 50th anniversary, the revolution it promised clearly never happened. Aficionados estimate that of the 100 or so made, only 68½ (more on the half later) remain. One belongs to Craig Barnes, an artist based in London, who saw a Futuro in a “dishevelled and tired” state while on holiday in Port Alfred, South Africa. He decided to mount a rescue mission. “I have family out there,” he says, “and I’d been seeing this Futuro since I was about three. I viewed it as a spaceship. I drove past in 2013 and workers were knocking down a garage next to it.

Suomen kaupungeista Porvoo on ainoa, jossa keski- aikainen asemakaava on vielä havaittavissa, vaikka katuja onkin suoristettu sittemmin useaan otteeseen. Vapaamuotoisen katuverkon keskipisteenä on 1400-luvun alussa rakennettu kivikirkko. Sen historiallista merkitystä korostaa kirkon asema vuoden 1809 valtio- päivien näyttämönä.

Alkujaan linna oli suorakaiteen muotoinen leirilinna, kastelli, jonka molemmissa päissä C kohosi torni. 1300-luvulla muodostuivat esilinna ja päälinna. Silloin huoneisiin kuljettiin sisäpihalta puisia portaita pitkin. Nykyinen pyörötorni eli rondeli rakennettiin 1569-1575. Linnan loiston kausi sijoittui 1500-luvulle. Kulkuyhteyksiä lin- nan huoneista toisiin parannettiin ja uusia huoneita rakennettiin.

This functionalist and socialist utopian idea, however, was shattered by the 1972 oil crisis, as the use of plastic as building material became unviable. This film expresses and encapsulates the optimism of the post-war era in a joyful but melancholic study on the perceived failure of the 1960s vision of the future.

  • Evaluating the Functional Performance of Small-Scale Public Demountable Buildings
    Evaluating the Functional Performance of Small-Scale Public Demountable Buildings Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements of the University of Liverpool for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by: Junjie Xi June, 2013 ii Abstract This thesis investigates the design, operation and use of contemporary demountable buildings, and explores how functional performance can be assessed in small-scale examples for public use alongside with their relationship to other design elements. The research focuses on three case studies that do not require a high-technology building environment or complex construction skills. Demountable buildings are defined as those that are transported in a number of parts for assembly on site. Contemporary demountable buildings respond to ecological issues, social impacts, technological innovation and economic demands. They can be used to measure a society’s development in environmental sustainability, innovation and economic growth through various forms. Small-scale demountable buildings fulfil many temporary habitation needs in diverse roles, such as non-emergency transitional housing, ephemeral exhibition buildings and seasonal entertainment facilities. The purpose of examining functional performance is to assess if, and how, the requirements of the design have been achieved. This enables project operators to address functional performance from a public perspective by reflecting on the scope and ambition of their projects. This thesis draws on existing literature to investigate previous and on-going research relating to demountable buildings, including classification, the construction process and project management. It also examines selected existing evaluation methods that cover principles, modelling and computer- based solutions from a wider research area, including Guidelines Developed by City Council and Culture Sectors; Assessment Methods in Humanitarian Response and Methods in Environmental Assessment.

  • The 1950S and 1960S Modern Home Magazines As Research Material
    10 Architectural Research in Finland, Vol. 4, No. 1 (2020) The 1950s and 1960s Modern Home Magazines as research material Pirjo Sanaksenaho Aalto University [email protected] This article is based on my keynote lecture at the architectural research symposium held at Aalto University on October 25, 2018. The lecture dealt with my doctoral dissertation: Modern Home. Single-family housing ideals as presented in Finnish architecture and interior design magazines in the 1950s and 1960s. (Sanaksenaho, 2017) Keywords: modern, home, single-family house, housing architecture, media Introduction The concept of the Modern Home has inspired both film makers and writers of interior design books and magazines for decades. For example, in the film Mon Oncle by Jacques Tati, Monsieur Hulot gets acquainted with a modern kitchen with all its machines and automation. It may be humorous to show humans as users of new technology, but it raises the question of how new ideas in modern architecture and living in homes were received. There is rather little scientific research on modern homes and single-family houses, at least in the Finnish context. My research responded to the need for knowledge about the post-war period of architecture of single-family houses, when the new modern ideals of living on one level, with big windows, sliding doors, open fireplaces and bar kitchens full of domestic appliances were presented. By choosing magazines as my research material, I was also able to study family life in these houses as it was presented in the family and interior design magazines of the time. “I hope that it is clear, that the architects of this century have always actively engaged in an interdisciplinary discourse that uses the media to blur the line between the high and low culture, art and commerce, and that the house is their polemical vehicle.

Include design, materials, condition, alterations, size, setting, and boundaries): Nestled in the San Jacinto mountains near Idyllwild, California, the Futuro is a structural reinforced fiberglass polyester plastic portable home, meant to be easily moved to a desired site, usually by helicopter. Noted for its ellipsoid shaped shell which characterizes its space-age Futuristic architectural style, the residence measures 26’-4” (8m) in diameter, 13’-2” (4m) high with a total floor area of 520 square feet (48.5 square meters), and weighs approximately 11,900 lbs (5,500kg). Following extensive exterior and interior restoration, the resource is in excellent condition retaining its integrity of design, workmanship, materials, setting, feeling, and association to its 1969 period of significance. In recognition of owner Milford Wayne Donaldson’s restoration effort and resulting preservation of this fragile resource, essential to saving the building and raising the profile of the entire family of similar buildings, the property is identified as the Donaldson Futuro.
