This article presents an overview of research on urban form in Poland. Within historical geography this tradition is continued today by geographers from the University of Łódź where for years professors Mark Koter and Mariusz Kulesza have been implementing the research methodology of the English school. This research presents a descriptive approach, while research in the field of architecture and urban planning tends to be prescriptive. They have been, and continue to be, conducted at various architectural universities both in the fields of history and monuments conservation, urban planning, spatial planning, and landscape architecture.

Full textAbstract:
The debate over spatial planning highlights the need for more interdisciplinary, strategic, and collaborative methods to achieve broad policy goals such as resilience and sustainability. Risk-based planning is gaining importance due to the rising vulnerability of urban infrastructure. Incorporating disaster risk management into spatial planning requires a geographically based strategy for reducing catastrophe risk. This article outlines the role of spatial planning in the reconstruction of the Mati settlement in Attica, Greece, that was devastated by a forest fire in 2018. It presents a set of proposals that relate to the urban reorganization of the area and considers disaster risk reduction and disaster management, as well as sustainability issues relating to mobility, the management of the natural environment, and the recovery of the coastline as a public resource. The basis for this article is the contribution of the Urban Planning Research Laboratory of the National Technical University of Athens/School of Architecture to the preparation of the Special Urban Plan for the fire-stricken area of Mati, Attica, on behalf of the Technical Chamber of Greece.

This article reviews the eco-social design work of students at the Gallatin School of Individualized Studies at New York University over the last decade. Environmental justice movements and the effects of global warming pose significant challenges to the architecture of dwellings, landscapes, and urban design communities. In response, students have placed socially and ecologically sensitive projects at the center of their design education. The justifiable moral outrage of our students has prompted us and them to rethink the methods by which we teach and imagine social environmentalism from the perspective of equity, inclusion, and the biosphere.

Full textAbstract:
Data handling is a general objective of education, regardless of the educational level (middle school, high school, university or postgraduate) and branch. Being at the intersection between the humanities and the exact sciences, the field of design requires a continuous summation and overlapping of information from specialists. Obtaining data is essential for perceiving the current situation, but also for adapting the solution proposed in the planning process to the given situation, to the particularities and main characteristics of the context. How difficult it is to obtain information, but especially their overlap and correlation to obtain indicators specific to target areas, depends in most cases on the experience of the specialist in the field, but for a recent graduate, the training received during the years of university training is perhaps his most important support. However, there may be data that are predominantly available during university training and data that can be obtained predominantly outside the academic environment (financial data, communication with public institutions). The paper describes a proposal for a support platform to assist the process of architectural design, urban planning and landscaping in Romania, but which can also support adjacent studies and analyzes. The purpose of the platform is to support the design and planning process of heritage and landscape, architecture and urban planning, by simplifying the data acquisition process and also directing the design/planning process to a long-term perspective, which is based on resilient solutions for natural and built heritage and for the conservation of the local cultural landscape.

Full textAbstract:
The bell tower of Nanking University, built in 1888, is a milestone of modern educational architecture in Nanjing. It fully introduced Western architectural concepts and is an important historical witness to the cultural exchange between China and the West. At present, there are few studies on the conservation and reuse of the building, so the authors conducted the project. In this paper, we conducted research by combining qualitative and quantitative methods. The qualitative analysis includes analyses of historical maps, photos, text, surveys, mapping of buildings, and a comparative analysis. The quantitative analysis includes statistics on the distribution of the urban school architectural heritage, the number of buildings at Nanking University, and China’s school building design standards. Through the historical research and value analysis of the building, we explore its real information from the aspects of architectural style, space, structure, material, and construction technology, and propose a reasonable conservation method. According to the current urban planning policy and architectural heritage data, the functional upgrading and renovation of the building will be carried out. This paper explores authenticity and integrity-based restoration methods, as well as the adaptive-reuse strategy for China’s architectural heritage, which can provide a paradigm for regional development and historic campus renewal.

Full textAbstract:
Planning problems have been with us ever since human beings realized that their wellbeing is very closely linked to the quality of their settlements and the environment. Over the last century this has led to the worldwide emergence of built environment education in general, and planning in particular. In many African universities planning education is a rapidly growing phenomenon reaching its maturity in terms of structure and number of programs. This development has been most significant in those countries that underwent rapid urbanization and environmental changes similar to those occurring in Botswana. The first Urban and Regional Planning Programme at the University of Botswana was established in 1993 as part of the Department of Environmental Science at the Faculty of Science. The continued growth and expansion of the planning profession world-wide as well as in Botswana, and its interdisciplinary ties with allied built-environment disciplines, have reached the point at which the University of Botswana is ready to continue with a new internationally recognized planning school. There is a belief that a combined (spatial and specialist) accredited planning programme should support local and regional interests, focusing on the Southern African Region, while acknowledging global standards and innovation in teaching, research, and technology.

Full textAbstract:
Albeit somewhat slowly, since the early 2000s urban morphological concepts and methods have germinated interest among urban morphologists in both China and Chinese-speaking researchers internationally. Early exploratory projects have focused on the re-examination, integration and cross-cultural transferability of urban morphology in the context of China. Building on the successful organisation of the 16th International Seminar on Urban Form (ISUF) in Guangzhou in 2009, ISUF's first meeting in Asia, a group of scholars conferred at the School of Architecture and Urban Planning, Nanjing University on 31 October 2013 to inaugurate the Chinese Network of Urban Morphology (CNUM). Over the course of the past decade or so, the CNUM has become a key contributor and driving force for the development of urban morphology in China. As a reflection on the recent wave of morphological research on Chinese cities, the purpose of this article is to provide greater clarity on what has been achieved through the cross-cultural application of morphological theory. More importantly, it explores potential avenues for future research in relation to documented gaps and remaining challenges, taking forward some of the more promising but undeveloped morphological thinking.

PurposeOur lived experiences are complex, dynamic and increasingly connected locally and globally through virtual realities that call for an evolution and responsiveness from the field of architecture education. To ensure future built environments are designed to nurture healing and health, this paper aims to address a critical need in architecture education to integrate knowledge of health and social-behavioral disciplines in students' course work. The authors will outline the process of preparing a new multidisciplinary course on health and the built environment (HBE) at the School of Architecture and Planning at Morgan State University in Baltimore, USA, as an effort to challenge the barriers of discipline-specific pathways to learning in the field of architecture.Design/methodology/approachThe central question is how to develop an active learning pedagogy to foster a multidisciplinary learning environment focused on the “practice” (how to) of human-design-oriented approaches to improve the capability of built and natural environments to promote health and healing. The course intentionally centered on the real-life experiences of students to ground their new understanding of health and well-being fields. The course proposal went through an extensive peer-review process of reviewers from the National Institute of Health (NIH) and other departments at Morgan State University to ensure a balance between health- and architecture-specific curricula with a transdisciplinary approach to understanding complex health issues.FindingsThis paper shows the effectiveness of tools and techniques applied in the course to challenge architectural students to integrate various health and behavior perspectives in their designs and to apply health and healing principals to their current and future design projects.Originality/valueWhile there are courses in American universities that offer a traditional introduction to health concerns related to the built environment, there is limited focus on the perspective of the design field approach to improve health and healing outcomes.

The late stage in the development of a socialist city in the second half of the twentieth century is usually attributed to the phenomena of the “modernist wave”. This period saw the highest rise of the Irkutsk school of architecture, and we continue to publish materials about the wonderful Irkutsk sixtiers and their best urban planning projects, which have not lost their relevance. The lively, modern character of many aspects of the socialist city is discussed in articles from Irkutsk, Krasnoyarsk and Khabarovsk. The article on updating Cheryomushki in Odessa is a continuation of a series of materials of the international Russian-German-Ukrainian project on a comparative study of the socialist legacy in the cities of the three countries. And the Winter University demonstrates attempts to apply modern standards of the integrated development of territories to the modernist districts of Irkutsk.

Full textAbstract:
Whether in school buildings or university campuses the educational process involves many activities that include knowledge acquisition and assimilation, testing students' motivation and academic performance, and faculty and teachers' productivity. The way in which we approach the planning, design, and our overall perception of learning environments makes powerful statements about how we view education; how educational buildings are designed tells us much about how teaching and learning activities occur. Concomitantly, how these activities are accommodated in a responsive educational environment is a critical issue that deserves special attention. While it was said several decades ago that a good teacher can teach anywhere, a growing body of knowledge-derived from knowledge on “evidence-based design” suggests a direct correlation between the physical aspects of the learning environment, teaching processes, and learning outcomes. In its commitment to introduce timely and pressing issues on built environment research, Open House International presents this special edition to debate and reflect on current discourses on sustainable learning environments.

The article deals with doctoral dissertations prepared and defended at the Faculty of Architecture at current Vilnius Gediminas Technical University in spite of changes of its institutional subordination. It deepens into fields of scientific research investigated during doctoral studies that are considered an important part of research in architecture. The tendencies of evolution of doctorate at the Faculty of Architecture of VGTU are contextualised in architectural research and doctoral studies in architectural research and education institutions both in Lithuania and abroad. During the Soviet times, Lithuanian architects had a possibility to prepare and defend dissertations for a scientific degree of candidate of architectural sciences either at the Faculty of Architecture at Kaunas Polytechnic Institute (afterwards – at Vilnius Engineering Building Institute) or at institutions of architectural research and education in the Soviet Union, outside Lithuania, depending if Lithuanian institutions had the right to educate the aspirants for scientific degree and the right to defend their dissertations. It mostly influenced the dynamics of scientific degrees obtained (see Fig. 1). Architecture was defined as an autonomous research field under the Soviet classification and it helped to shape the identity of the discipline: its width, specific methods and questions. Architectural dissertations of Soviet times were rigorously specialised and empiric, closely connected with practice, deepening into urban issues more than architectural ones (see Fig. 2). Since 1998, architecture loses its integrity and becomes a subfield of Art Critics in Humanities. Since then doctoral dissertations defended at the Faculty of Architecture of VGTU investigate architectural history, theory and critics according traditional methodologies of humanities including interdisciplinary contexts; fundamental academic research dominates. Recent international dynamic changes in both doctoral studies and architectural research directs for the impact of research beyond academia generating more efficient contribution to architectural research and innovation related to ideas, forms, techniques, materials and practices based upon technological advances for the so-called society of knowledge; one of the means is creating various forms of doctorates. Nevertheless, the present situation of doctorate at the Faculty of Architecture of VGTU is not supportive for tuning to new tendencies – revision of national classification of research towards integrity of architecture field, and also introduction of a program of research by design, priorities for innovative, practice-embedded, interdisciplinary, future-oriented research in doctorate at the school might create much more positive medium for the progress.

Full textAbstract:
In recent years, multi-functional lecture halls have developed rapidly and become a symbol of contemporary public spaces and places. This kind of spatial facility that brings together the advantages of land intensiveness and multi-functional integration also faces feedback such as poor acoustic effects. However, current research rarely involves the architectural design perspective, which is actually the root consideration of this problem; that is, how to set up corresponding spatial layout measures to optimize acoustic performance in a relatively economical and simple way. This study uses the academic lecture hall of the School of Architecture and Planning of Yunnan University as a case to try to solve these problems. The research is based on holistic considerations, starting from site selection, architectural design, aesthetic considerations, and environmental noise assessment, and combining simulation results with actual measurement results. Using a prediction–comparison–verification method, key acoustic parameters such as speech intelligibility, loudness, and reverberation time were calculated and evaluated to understand the acoustic design problems of the hall. The study found that the out-of-control reverberation time was the main cause of poor acoustic feedback, and based on this, optimization and transformation were carried out from an architectural perspective. Finally, a renovation suggestion was made that the application of sound-absorbing materials on the rear wall can achieve better acoustic effects inside the hall. Among the space combination methods, the combination of “rear wall, central ceiling, and front ceiling” has the best effect. Practical insights are provided for improving the acoustic performance of the multi-functional lecture halls while taking into account the acoustic design and feasible requirements.

In areas subject to social and economic disadvantage where resources are scarce, the physical environment of the public realm is often identified as a place for investment by governments - a place where infra-structural improvements to the built environment, funded through government, may reap wider social rewards. In addition, specific social policy ambitions in Australia, within both state government and other welfare agencies, focus on social capital building and community strengthening initiatives. Yet the relationship between these crucial areas of government action - social welfare and community development, and the design of the built environment -is often disconnected. This article describes an experimental pilot study for a prototype community engagement tool aimed at foregrounding the user in design for the public realm. The project, which will devise an innovative methodology for community consultation in areas of neighbourhood renewal and change, operates within the structure of a design studio at RMIT University School of Architecture + Design. The outcome - the Digital Map - is an interactive map website which acts as a mechanism for engaging people in the design of the built environment and the public realm, simultaneously providing a platform for social connected-ness and networking within the community. Embedded links to a repository of one-person film narratives, means that the map is an ongoing device for community participation: a transparent and open-ended alternative to the limitations of consultation through questionnaire, and a mechanism for building sustainable communities.

In recent times, many infectious diseases have been spreading at an increasing scale and frequency. There is a common agreement in the literature that our cities should be prepared in the future to react promptly to epidemics, but the way in which this preparedness should be shaped is still an open question. This study aims to introduce a series of factors that should be taken into consideration in building a working framework to define and evaluate strategies for post-COVID cities. Through the use of the mutual learning methodology, this contribution draws on the concept of the epidemic prevention area (EPA) proposed by a research team at the School of Architecture, Southeast University (SEU) in China together with the UNESCO Chair in Cultural Resource Management, as an urban responding system to the COVID-19 epidemic, extracting its main factors and comparing them with two European post-COVID urban strategies: The Paris en Commun and Milano 2020. Research findings highlight that three factors—decentralization of facilities, hierarchization of the transport system and public services, and redundancy of public and semipublic functions—appeared to be particularly relevant in post-COVID cities, to promptly face future epidemic events, while improving their quality, equity, and resilience.

This paper presents the methods and preliminary results gained in geographic information systems (GIS)-based participatory activities designed to engage youth in urban planning. We describe our engagement framework that integrates such pervasive IT tools as GIS, online serious games, agent-based modeling, and mobile participatory GIS into engagement strategies that tap into what we see as the storytelling capabilities of these tools. We show how these methods help citizens, in our case youth, assume leadership roles and take positive, tangible actions in their communities. This paper summarizes the elements of our framework and the initial results of a program called “Community Growers” that we created between our Iowa State University research team and a chapter of the Boys & Girls Club of Central Iowa. Participants included middle school-age youth from three resource-vulnerable neighborhoods in Des Moines, the capital city of Iowa, USA. We conclude the paper with a discussion and further research directions.

Full textAbstract:
The aim of this paper is to illustrate the results of the pedagogical approach that was created to develop the competencies of a critical and reflective professional. The pedagogical approach was developed for the master's level Planning Theory course at the Faculty of Architecture, University of Belgrade. The specifics of the pedagogical approach stemmed from the need to consider a number of new issues relevant to improving planning practices, planning systems and the domain of spatial development in Serbia, which have emerged during the period of transitional reforms in Serbia since 2000. The case of preparing the plan of detailed regulation for the Avala Film complex in Kosutnjak, which was also the subject of the work of students in the school year 2020/21, was taken as a testing ground to illustrate the approach. The methodological steps in the analysis of the case clearly indicated the following problems in the field of spatial development: a) urban plans serve as an instrument for the alienation of publicly owned land, b) public policies are selectively considered in the decision-making process on spatial development, c) formal planning procedures are insufficiently clear and have gaps in formulations, which creates space for ambiguous interpretations, d) decision-making positions on strategic development priorities and issues of public interest are not clearly defined and e) key issues on spatial development are resolved in the domain of political rather than professional decision-making. Based on the analysis of the planning process for the Avala Film complex, recommendations for improving planning practice, i.e. the spatial governance system in Serbia are made. They are essentially aimed at improving the legislative system in the decision-making process, with an emphasis on formalizing positions of competence, determining mechanisms for the alienation of public property, improving the transparency of procedures and re-positioning the role of the profession in that process.

Full textAbstract:
The authors consider the problem of formation of open public spaces within areas affected by the influence of cultural heritage sites. The focus here is on the historical center of Krasnoyarsk city. Relevance of the research is determined, on the one hand, by the current trend for the formation of comfortable urban environment in public open spaces. On the other hand, by the appearance of numerous implemented projects, including those in Krasnoyarsk, which have identical functional and objective content, detached from the cultural and historical context of the environment. The analysis of the “Map of areas with special land use requirements related to the protection of cultural heritage objects” in the historic center of Krasnoyarsk revealed the following characteristic morphotypes of public open spaces (genesis types) within cultural heritage areas: territory adjacent to a single cultural heritage object (protection zone of a cultural heritage object), which is part of the street; territory adjacent to a single cultural heritage object (protection zone of a cultural heritage object), which is inside the development area (yard, courtyard garden, manor house); a street formed by the facades of several cultural heritage objects on one or both sides; a square or a garden square, which is part of the architectural ensemble – an object of cultural heritage; the territory of the quarter formed by a group of cultural heritage objects, and which is a cultural heritage protection zone; a park or square within the protected historic green space. Each type is analyzed using examples, survey of protection zones of cultural heritage, the established urban planning regulations within their boundaries regarding the availability of requirements for the improvement of public open spaces. The authors touch upon the problems of landmark attractions, preservation of identity in the historical and cultural environment of the settlement. They also formulate the principles of public open space formation within influence areas of cultural heritage objects on the basis of various methodological approaches approved by the Department of Urban Planning within the School of Architecture and Design of the Siberian Federal University.

The benefits gained in design mediated by Building Information Modelling (BIM) technology are manifold, among them stand out the early visualization, the generation of accurate 2D drawings, collaboration, verification of design intent, the extraction of cost estimates and performance evaluations. By adopting this modeling technology and using to produce, communicate and analyze architectural or engineering solutions practice is transformed. Therefore, the implementation of this new method of working in architectural design and engineering firms finds resistance, implies in adoption stages where incremental adjustments must occur to overcome difficulties and ensure learning and gaining with the new process. The Architectural and Engineering Office COORDENADORIA DE PROJETOS (CPROJ ), belonging to the School of Civil and Architecture and Urban Planning of the University of Campinas, seeks continually innovations therefore incorporated BIM in its design method. This paper presents a practical case, that is, the first large scale project developed with BIM, considered to be a BIM pilot study at CPROJ. The pilot study was the research laboratory of the Center of Molecular and Cellular Engineering of the Boldrini Children’s Hospital. Training efforts and ownership of BIM previous to the pilot study and the pilot study itself are presented. The highlights and lessons learned in this process are summarized. The understanding of how BIM changed the office production and qualitatively benefits achieved are presented.

Full textAbstract:
The Grand Mosque of Ibb, Yemen, also called the ʻUmar Caliph Mosque, is a critically endangered structure that has been a seat of the Shafiʽi school of Islamic jurisprudence since the twelfth century. From the sixteenth century through the present, this identity became marginalized due to the changing political conditions of Lower Yemen. The present state of the mosque testifies to multiple phases of neglect, and the destruction of a complex that served as both a house of worship and a university; collapses and modern interventions have obscured much of its earlier grandeur. This study analyses the Grand Mosque’s destruction and deterioration through its distinct historic periods. For the Grand Mosque’s most recent history, photographs and interviews conducted by geographer Mohamed Saleh Al-Haj, a local resident of Ibb, are presented in collaboration with art historian Lily Filson, a colleague in the United States. The necessity of this international scholarly teamwork underscores the difficulties and challenges of conservation and fieldwork in Ibb. The Grand Mosque faces imminent risk because of its central location within Yemen, a hinterland within Islamic architectural scholarship and the site of a civil war that has claimed irreplaceable monuments and a staggering human toll since 2014.

Full textAbstract:
In the works of the history of Lviv Polytechnic, the first years of operation of the technical school are connected with the building in the center of Lviv, on the street Teatralna 20. However, the real architectural history of the Polytechnic has been richer in objects and more connected with center of the city. Newly released archival documents that touch on the history of Lviv Polytechnic make it possible to look differently at the first period of its existence. Extremely interesting is also the information about the buildings and the set of premises (their planning structure, functions) that ensured the functioning of the educational institution. It was believed that the first building specifically designed for the Polytechnic was its current main building on S. Bandera Street, 12, erected in 1873-1877. They were planned to location on a plot in the central part of the city – on Castrum Square. This square arose after dismantling the complex of the Low Castle buildings and the Franciscan monastery. The article is devoted to the analysis of newly discovered archival projects: a) projects of reconstruction of residential buildings at the corner of Teatralna and Virmenska streets for the needs of the technical school; b) the projects of the new building of the technical academy that were planned to be built nearby – on Kastrum Square. The beginnings of the architectural and construction history of Lviv Polytechnic University have their interesting pages, though at first it was not a higher educational institution. In the first period, in the rank of a real school, the educational institution operated in the rented and adapted premises of the building located at the corner of present streets Teatralna-Virmenska. Why was the new educational establishment located here? The answer to this question is simple. According to Lviv’s urban transformation plans, this section was designated by the new Austrian authorities as the site of new representative institutions. This is where the main administrative, socio-cultural and educational objects should appear. At the beginning of the 19 century this section of the central part of Lviv was chosen by the Austrian administration for the settlement of theaters and educational institutions, which was reflected in the names of the streets at that time. The Virmenska Street, which emerged at the same time as the formation of a medieval city within the defensive walls, was initially shorter and started from Krakiwska Street. The section between Teatralna and Krakiwska streets was annexed to Virmenska only in 1871. By that time it was called Pekarska, then Trinitarian (from the neighborhood of the Trinitarian Order). After liquidation by the Austrian authorities in the late 18th century. Trinitarian monastery Street is called Academicka or Universytetska (from the university that housed this monastery building. That is, the Real School was located near the old university. The building at the corner of 20, Teatralnaya Street – 2, Virmenska Street, which housed originally the Real School, and hence the Technical Academy, was erected on the site of two medieval buildings whose owners’ names were preserved in their names. In the XVII century. there were little houses under the names: Pischimushinska (1605–1612), Sokolovska (1630–1640), as well as Turivska or Turtsivska (1631–1635, 1639). In the books and court documents for the years 1647–1767, the corner stone was marked by the name of Kosmiglovska – on behalf of its owner Kosmigel, and in the elbow tax for 1767 – the Kosmiglovska corner, measuring 10.1 m x 29 m. Next to it, in the direction of the Virmenska (No. 2), there was a plot with a house of Bivetivska or Pishchiminska (23.0 m wide), in the elbow tax for 1767, designated as “the Bivetivska wasteland”. On the map of Lviv in 1777 J.-D. Guber’s empty parcel is marked on the right of an elongated corner building, which has a conscription number 62 and faces the present street with a narrower facade. Theatrical. It was on these two plots that new houses were erected, the names of which correspond to the names of their new owners – Darovsky and Levytsky. These buildings were recorded on the cadastral map of Lviv in 1849 under the conscription numbers 72 (extended along Virmenska) and 73 (extended along the Theater). At the Central State Historical Archives in Lviv, four cases with drawings of the buildings of a real trade school, and later the academy, remained in the Fund of the Collection of Projects and Plans. Two of these cases relate to the aforementioned boardwalk building at the Teatralna-Virmenska – inventory plans, the project of their adaptation to the educational institution. Two more dating back to the dates (1840, 1843) are projects for the construction of a new facility. The first case (1840) presents the design of a new building – in terms of a U-shaped form (in two versions of the pillars: two floors and three), attached one side to some neighboring houses. Instead, the second case (for 1843) presents a very carefully executed project of a new, free-standing house of the Imperial and Royal Technical Academy in two versions. In our opinion, the architect’s building was located in the same northwestern section of Lviv, but on the other side – opposite the corner house, on the opposite side of Teatralnaya Street – on the square called Kastrum, which was formed on the site of the dismantled buildings of the Low Castle. Initially, the square of Kastrum was large and extended from Poltva to the University building, located here from 1784 in the rebuilt buildings of the Trinitarian monastery.

Full textAbstract:
The aim of this study is to analyze; academician, architect and architectural theorist Robert Venturi’s groundbreaking books in the world of architecture;’Learning from Las Vegas’ and ‘Re-Learning from Las Vegas’, in terms of postmodern urban design. For this purpose, the study focuses onthe different dynamics of architecture and tries to reveal the effects and contributions of the local context to thearchitectural concept and urban design with the contradictions and complexities it creates. The study that dealswith the dynamics of architecture, apart from the space, in terms of local context via Las Vegas Boulevard; examines dynamics such as communication / symbolic / non-architect architecture. Hence, while referring to post-modernism, a period of pivotal architecture, he particularly focuses on ; Learning from Las Vegas; to explain how the Everyday urban landscape of Venturi’s Las Vegas Strip, emerged eclectically and quickly. In the article, the architecture of Las Vegas Strip, which was the beginning of post-modernism in the 1960s, has been discussed in terms of urban design and urban landscape, focusing on the reflections of symbolic (sign) architecture and eclecticism. The everyday design philosophy of the boulevard is examined. While discussing Venturi’s discourse on ‘what we need to learn from Las Vegas’, it is also intended to reveal why he actually praises everyday architecture. Venturi, who is a member of the advisory board of Princeton University's School of Architecture and Urban Design, clearly demonstrated the philosophy of architecture in the book "Complexity and Contradiction in Architecture" presented in 1966; Again for the first time in this work, he responded to Mies Van Der Rohe, who is known with the phrase "Less is more", with "Less is bore" (less
boring). Therefore, in the study, the understanding of urban design that emerged in the post-modern period has been investigated through Venturi’s interpretations and works, and an analysis has been made on how architecture, a local context consisting of symbols and hangars has a wide impact in the world.

This article explores the urban planning curriculum of the three selected planning schools in India. They are the School of Planning and Architecture (SPA), New Delhi; Department of City and Regional Planning, Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Kharagpur; and the Faculty of Planning, CEPT University, Ahmedabad. It uses content analysis to understand the deepening of research, skill formation and the possible change in pedagogy due to growing concerns about climate change (CC) and disaster risk reduction (DRR) in the urban area. The concerned programme coordinators and heads of the departments have also been consulted to find out the general approach to integrating CC and DRR knowledge into their planning curricula. An account of research outreach of faculty members, student dissertations and institutional publication in the CC and DRR has also been presented to illustrate research outreach with the community. It has been found that these schools need to deepen further their engagement with the domain of CC and DRR.

Full textAbstract:
In an essay in The Endless City: The Urban Age Project (2007), Deyan Sudjic proposes that the problems of our cities can be understood and managed through collaboration between three groups: policymakers, builders and theorists. The Regional Urban Studies Laboratory (RUSL) led by the School of Architecture & Design at the University of Tasmania provides collaborative practice-based research that links the academy – as theorists - with the local government - the policymakers and city builders. RUSL works directly with local authorities to examine urban issues in small towns and cities, developing collaborative processes that examine the specific nature of design issues that are socially, culturally and/or situationally conditioned. Research through the medium of design provides a process of iterative thinking, and the crossover between the disciplines of architecture, planning, sociology and economics provide fertile ground for research investigations. Relationships between the academy and political institutions further enrich this potential.

Full textAbstract:
Urban planners who are environmentally conscious and aware will take action to take responsibility, inform, and control. Raising environmental awareness is essential in urban planning education to understand environmental problems. Therefore, it is necessary to educate urban planning students on environmental ethics. This study investigates the environmental attitudes and behaviors of urban and regional planning students, who will shape the environment in the future within the context of the value-belief-norm theory. Moreover, to find clues that will shape environmental education in the course curriculum. The study included 226 students from the Department of Urban and Regional Planning in the Faculty of Architecture of Yıldız Technical University (YTU) and Amasya University (AU). Questionnaire data has been evaluated using principal components analysis, correlation analysis, T-test, and ANOVA analysis. According to the study findings, urban planning students have adopted biocentric, ecocentric, and anthropocentric value orientations. The study has found that students with ecocentric value orientation tend to show more pro-environmental behavior. The study concludes that the student’s characteristics also affect how they show pro-environmental behavior and evaluate environmental policies. In conclusion, focusing on ecocentric approaches in urban planning education can positively affect adopting pro-environmental behavior and policies. Additionally, study findings show that students with relatively better economic conditions are more inclined to have a biocentric value orientation. Based on the literature and these study findings, pro-environmental behavior is not a single-dimensional structure caused only by individuals' personal and professional characteristics. People's environmental attitudes and behaviors are shaped by their upbringing, school, friends, and culture. It shows that pro-environmental behavior has a multi-dimensional complex structure, and a conceptual framework can provide guidance to explain these kinds of behavior.

Full textAbstract:
This article explores how placemaking took place in architectural and design studios working with migrant and displaced communities at universities in three countries. Placemaking is a dimension of architectural and urban design practice that is emulated in architectural design studios – and often takes the form of a top-down and expert-driven exercise. In contrast, bottom-up placemaking is constituted through spontaneous and everyday practices in a given locality. The studios engaged with social scientists with a particular focus on displaced and immigrant communities. In Delhi, a multi-disciplinary social design studio at Ambedkar University applied community engagement and a service design approach to sustainable social interventions with a physical design component. At the University of Brighton, UK, an architectural design/build studio aimed at actual construction and transgressed the studio boundary to work closely with a charity supporting young refugees. In Norway, architecture students in an urbanism studio at the Oslo School of Architecture and Design surveyed an immigrant-dominated modernist housing district and proposed architectural and urban space interventions. Across the studios, student projects ranged from visualising futures to physical and social interventions. Learning outcomes varied, including design and planning skills, community engagement methods, co-design approaches and training in reflexivity. Venturing beyond the studio entailed engaging in sociocultural learning practices, engaging urban complexities and challenging expert authority and epistemologies in architecture and design education.

An urban landscapeis composed by a set of many factors, and each one of them has a role in building a landscape that expresses values, cultural and social aspects of a society. This article focus on investigating possibilities to address urban landscape planning through a methodological approach that explores the urban parameter for occupation as one of the factors that shape our urban environment and landscape. The main goal is to discuss the planner'stask of decoding and translating social and cultural values to the landscape while showingsome possible outcomes from the investment in data acquisition, andthe structuration of an urban multipurpose 3D cadastre.Thus, the case study presents a Geodesign workshop which was held in the Geoprocessing Laboratory of the School of Architecture, from the Federal University of Minas Gerais (UFMG) and was attended by 13 participants. The participants were invited to propose new patterns for the land occupation through the defnition of urban parameters for an area in Pampulha region, in Belo Horizonte. The methodological process was based on Parametric Modeling for the visualization of alternative futures of urban landscape as a support for the opinion taking process promoted by the framework of Geodesign. As a result, the values and expectations from each group of representatives of the society were analyzed allowing an assimilation of the elements that interfere the most on citizens' interests for the composition of the urban land use. Extending the experience can favor a broader support for decision-making on proposition of Land Use laws as much as justify investments on the formation of 3D cadastre for municipal planning and management.
