Cities are at the core of current environmental problems and, conversely, may host the solutions for them. They are the defining ecological phenomenon of the twenty-first century. Natural patterns and processes within cities might be a means toward an ecological regeneration of their bioregions through a symbiotic relationship between them. In this context, design has a great potential to reshape cities, transforming them for improved living conditions and balanced ecological systems. Considering buildings and landscapes as reciprocal entities within a system is a great opportunity for design innovation and increased performance with an active engagement between people and nature. By assuming the ecosystem services approach as a reference for highest ecological performance when multiple ecosystem services are provided within a system, this dissertation proposes an urban ecosystem services framework and the concept of service providing design for assessing architecture and landscape architecture. This framework is the basis to analyze three rating systems that are the most relevant standards for sustainable and regenerative design of architecture and landscape architecture, being the Living Building Challenge â , LEED â , and Sustainable SITES Initiative â . Furthermore, two architecture and landscape architecture certified and high-performance projects are analyzed. Based on the analysis, other ecosystem services beyond those proposed in the framework are identified, being renewable energy sources and active living. Some ecosystem services considered are not required by the rating systems, and not provided by the projects, being medicinal resources, pollination, and spiritual experience. Although required, food production is not provided in the projects studied due to a scale issue as they are located in densely occupied urban sites. Moreover, SITES is currently more related to ecosystem services than LEED, which suggests that the ecosystem services framework has a great potential as a tool to explore the relationship of building design criteria and natural systems and cycles. Although most ecosystem services are identified as provided by the two assessed projects, their performance suggests that they are not yet fully integrated to the natural ecosystem. This fact corroborates to the necessary next step for defining the Urban Ecosystem Services Framework in a quantitative approach with a hierarchical organization of the ecosystem services. Rigorously addressing the ecosystem services approach in LEED, SITES, and other rating systems will help integrate ecological regeneration processes in architecture, landscape architecture, and cities.

Full textThis thesis has been created to act as a basis for the preparation of a structural sketch of the property Nya Jägersro in Malmö. The thesis aims to create a planning concept that combines social and ecological sustainability by taking into account the specific characteristics of the site. Both the municipality and the property owner, the two most influential stakeholders, place great focus on sustainable development. The thesis examines two problems. The first is the property owner's separation of sustainability aspects, which through the reasoning that sustainability is created through interactions between different sustainability aspects can become problematic. The second is how Nya Jägersro as a place is affected by ideals of densification in order to build sustainably. To address these problems the purpose of the thesis is to develop a planning concept that combines social and ecological sustainability by taking into account the specific characteristics of the site. The theoretical framework consists of three theories that deal with sustainable site-specific planning and design for developing sustainable cities. The methods of data collection that have been used are site reading, literature studies and semi-structured interviews. The planning concept that is finally presented is referred to as JägersGro, which coincides in several respects with SMT's and Malmö Stad's agendas, but also deviates in some aspects. The biggest deviating factor in relation to SMT is that JägersGro assumes that sustainability consists of the combination of different sustainability systems. Another deviating factor from both actors is that JägersGro advocates the idea that the human impact on the natural systems should not only be reduced. Instead, sustainable districts are considered to be involved in regenerative processes in order to function in a balanced cycle with nature.

Full textBrazil, has been well known worldwide for its deep relation with soccer as its national sport. Through the last century this sport modality has become a strong branch of the entertainment industry and it has brought with it the need of more efficient stadia specially regarding the urban regeneration aspect. The massive growth of Brazilian cities during the 60\'s and 70\'s and the development of soccer industry in the last decades have exposed the incapability of Brazilian\'s huge concrete bowls built for soccer practice during the military regime to function as catalysts of urban change nor to accommodate fans. Clearly there is a great need of reviewing the archetypal of Brazilian stadia since the country will be the next host of the two greatest contemporary mega-events: the World Cup and the Summer Olympics. Furthermore, hosting this mega-events and the settlement of its sports industry can be understood as a possibility to develop urban infrastructure systems and social policies contributing for the regeneration of underdeveloped urban areas. Therefore, this abstract summarizes the results obtained with the dissertation entitled: The contemporary stadium: an urban regeneration architecture. Initially, the work was developed from a bibliographical research in international journals such as: European Urban Studies, Urban Environment, Built Environment, Town Planning Review, Annals of Regional Science, Economic Development Quarterly, Urban Studies, Tourism Management, Journal of Sport Management, Leisure Studies, World Leisure and Recreation Studies, Journal of Urban Affairs, Sb Magazine. This research focus on the analysis of the contemporary stadia built for mega-events starting from the comprehension of the design strategies proposed by these buildings which expect to become the centerpieces of a process of urban renewal. The research understands that the design trends proposed by contemporary stadia is a consequence of a set of architectural morphological transformations occurred during the 20th century, which incorporated new technologies and building systems to its conception, confirming a new function to this typology of building also responsible for the urban regeneration of parts of the city. The connection between the stadium and its surroundings suggests that this buildings must be designed together with infrastructure systems, which allow these great sports buildings to be placed near the city centre, a fundamental condition for these facilities to achieve the status of architectonic monument. Therefore, the systems of mass transportation are a key element on the stadia proposal, especially in the cases where these building will be venues of important sports events such as the summer Olympics or the World Cup. A critical analysis of contemporary stadia will identify the relation between this buildings and its host cities, using the mass transportation systems planned for mega-evens since Atlanta 1996 as an object of the study as well as the architectonic aspects that contribute for the stadium to boost the regeneration process instead of becoming a burden to the host city.

Among the many urban consequences caused by the process of global economic restructuring, there is the emergence of large idle areas in cities and urban sectors whose growth had once been supported by the manufacturing industry. These are called areas of demand for industrial conversion or positive restructuring. The territory of the Fourth District of Porto Alegre, the object of the research study, is inserted in this context and problem set, offering many opportunities for new urban projects as a tool for territorial regeneration of degraded or transforming land. The urbanization process, which is currently characterized by the ability to put parts of the city in motion, has the challenge of dealing with existing city, without denying it. Similarly, society enters the twenty-first century with a strong concern for environmental preservation and recycling of resources, demanding the transformation and recovery of environments, such as industrial ones, through sustainable development. Thus, the paper focuses on aspects of the factors present in the origin of these places, their impacts on the land, the possibilities within the productive restructuring and urban regeneration of traditionally industrial areas, their new formats in the contemporary city - amongst them, the urban clusters, new fields of architecture and urban design facing society and the contemporary cities, sustainable development and condensing the city through the (re) densification of such territories, and finally focuses on the analysis and diagnosis of the context and potential of the IV District. The paper seeks to illustrate the theoretical discussion with relevant project experience.
Entre as inúmeras conseqüências urbanas provocadas pelo processo de reestruturação econômica global, destaca-se o surgimento de grandes áreas ociosas nas cidades e setores urbanos cujo crescimento havia se amparado na indústria de transformação. São as chamadas áreas de demanda por reconversão industrial ou reestruturação produtiva. É nesse contexto que está inserido o território do IV Distrito de Porto Alegre, objeto de estudo da pesquisa, e, nessa problemática, encontram-se muitas das oportunidades oferecidas aos novos projetos urbanos, enquanto instrumentos de regeneração territorial de áreas produtivas deterioradas ou em transformação - o processo urbanístico, que atualmente caracteriza-se pela capacidade de colocar trechos da cidade em movimento, tem o desafio de enfrentar a cidade existente, sem negá-la. Paralelamente, a sociedade adentra o século XXI com a forte preocupação da preservação ambiental e da reciclagem dos recursos disponíveis, fazendo com que a transformação e a recuperação de ambientes, como os industriais, coloquem-se dentro dessa nova demanda através do desenvolvimento sustentável. Sendo assim, o trabalho aborda aspectos acerca dos fatores presentes na origem desses lugares, de seus impactos no território, das possibilidades existentes na reestruturação produtiva e na regeneração urbana de zonas tradicionalmente industriais, de seus novos formatos na cidade contemporânea - entre eles, os clusters urbanos, dos novos campos de ação da arquitetura e do projeto urbano frente à sociedade e às cidades contemporâneas, do desenvolvimento sustentado e da promoção da cidade compacta através da (re)densificação desses territórios, e por fim, concentra-se na análise e no diagnóstico do contexto e das potencialidades do IV Distrito, sempre buscando ilustrar a discussão teórica com experiências projetuais relevantes que colaborem com o esclarecimento das questões encontradas na região em estudo e que inspirem alternativas para sua reversão.

Abstract Metropolitan Taichung is the regional social, economic, industry core and a premier urban region of middle Taiwan. Since the early 20th century, the city of Taichung has been expanding rapidly in terms of constant reconfiguring its physical and ecological elements. However, Taichung's development process is repeatedly following other fast developing modern cities in the expanse of exploiting built-environmental resources over its resilient physical structure such as, changing waters’ ways, soil and land cover in order to satisfy human expansion needs in the past 100 years. It is resulting in unbalanced ecological condition and poses sustainable threat over urban environmental issues for a liveable Taichung. This thesis aims to provide a multi-facet morphological knowledge useful for future applications on urban design cum environmental performance in Taichung by augmenting conventional study of urban form with concentrated river-based form growth historical framework, ecosystem services and biophilic design principles induced that contextualize the delimitation scope of the study. The thesis formulates a new theoretical framework through which embedded synchronic and diachronic aspects of historical factors and nature-built environmental regeneration principles, that had shaped the urban form can be organized and typo-morphologically revealed in representation. Between the 1890s and the 1900s, Qing Empire and Japanese colonization both had constructed its own planning orders and similarly taking natural elements as their initial reference for morphing city’s spatial structure. Analyzing that structural characteristic, the study inferred based on syncretic urban morphological matrix which induced city’s morphogenesis aspect of structure (developmental configuratio By superimposition and juxtaposition upon current physical developmental patterns through series of mapping techniques, the study suggested a morphological growth pattern, deviates to be resilient. The study also suggests that contemporary Taichung’s built-and natural environmental issues was affected due to the past planning of the “park and boulevard schemes” (also known as the “blue-green path” (綠園道)), which combines waterways, rivers, railroads, railways yards, drainage channels and planned green areas for the introduction of modern urban public area. Such planning ideology was influenced by the 1890s City Beautiful Movement and adopted by the 1910s Japanese urban planning law in land use. This ideology and its shaped morphology is argued, had set a precedent and been followed by an in-depth examination of Japanese colonial Taichung that directly influences the city’s modern development origin in urban form since the 1890s until the present. The morphological study has found that the city's environmental performance in terms of water-based spatial structure was weakened by the ways which urbanized river design and development process of "blue-green path" especially during the city expansion from 1935 to 1956 were morphologically evident for the cause. It resulting from massive changes to urban waters, soil, ecological performance, and emerged that unbalance nature-spatial form relation in urban environment for better living. The study suggested that the blue-green path is detrimental to biological vibes due to disruptive design and development occurred in the past and continue unto urban river system, land form, and intensive building plans. This morphological study shows that urban form pattern changes which align to certain development-centered movement towards blocking diversity, diminishing connectivity for diverse and healthier ecological base, even until today. Therefore, developmental effort of resilient urban form is to re-design a regenerative spatial cum natural structure of the blue-green path, which is deemed crucial for providing environmental performance and ecological services. The study also suggested that urban form in Taichung which can be read and classified under three steps of critical morphogenesis changes: firstly, development phases based on spatial reconfiguration set upon nature elements; secondly, adaptive and alterations to the city’s spatial structural elements for human needs; third underlying reasons on morphological determinant is set in the phases while city form underwent improvement introducing new urban structure affected by and also effecting the city’s environmental performance based on past configurational spatial coordinates and datum references. This study further investigate city’s theoretical framework on regenerative urban design which incorporates historical, contemporary ecosystem performance and some biophilic planning principles before deriving a morphology based urban design framework. In conclusion, an environmentally sustainable Taichung in terms of designing a regenerative urban form is to make an attempt to reshape the “blue-green path” through reviving and enliven city’s waters, soils surrounding them creating cycle system and strong ecology performance in urban form design and development. A regenerative urban form is for creating environmental conditions conducive for life and hence resiliently also more liveable. Keywords: Taichung, urban morphology, urban ecology, ecosystem service, urban waters.

As city development reached a certain level, the inevitable problems a city will have include urban renewal and differentiation. During the past years, Taoyuan City has expended from the city center to external areas, so the development of the city center has a tendency to be slow, even to the degree that some negative situations occurred, such as obsolete buildings and scenes, causing the living quality of the city center lower and worse. However, Taoyuan train station and Gyeongbok Palace are located at the core of the developing areas in Taoyuan City and also where business in TaoYuan began. They, what is more important, are the door and access to Taoyuan. This research goal is constructs by the metropolis renewal design way constructs the environment which the Taoyuan central area ecology continues forever, constructs the thing and the person line lies between the surface to process and to mold belongs to the local populace''s life field territory and urban morphology, his study was to discuss potential of development of Taoyuang in terms of culture, space, architecture, streets, industries, recreation, site-seeing, and systems by the use of systematic analysis. The results of this study display that the city center of Taoyuan includes characteristics of arts (Municipal Libraries、old streets in Taoyuan city center), historic monuments(Jingfu temple), industry and resources (department stores、abandoned Yunghe Public Market and Zhongyang Theatre). If these resources can be well-used to process renewal, they can ameliorate not merely quality of environment and can provide infrastructure, but also improve city appearance and traffic, making the land more effectively used. It is beneficial to increase Sustainable City Development and security.

The idea of sustainable city does not refer to a perfect situation of the ciy, but refer to a city that can adapt itself to the changes brought by time. That is, it takes a long period of time to know whether a city has carrying capacity and resilience.. However, while there is a growing concerns with sustainable development worldwide, the old district in Taichung is facing the crisis of recession and stagnating. Past experience tells us that a city will be unsustainable if urban policies emphasize merely on economic development, ignoring social and environmental needs. For this reason, the present study aims to deal with various issues of urban regeneration in the old district of Taichung according to the principles of sustainability Conventional urban design usually views the city in terms of its administrative district. However, a city is not an isolated entity; rather its operation is woven into a complex system that includes various scales of space. Therefore, a sustainable urban design needs to consider the issuses of a site from the pespectives of various scales. In light of the above discussions of sustainabal city, this study examines the old district in Taichung from three distinct scales, including that of city, neighborhood, and district. Finally, this study chooses a specific district and proposes urban regeneration strategies based on the principles of sustainability.

The study proposed the theme "regeneration of mountain towns and harbors" to address the challenge of urban transformation, and explored how both urban hardware and software respond to the renewals and adjustments within the new structure of urban space. The focus of the study is Keelung Harbor. In accordance with the issues under discussion, the study clarified the possibilities at different scales. At the large scale, it clarified the relationship of Keelung Harbor with Taipei metropolitan area. At the medium scale, it observed the industrial transformation of Keelung Harbor and how its resources supported new space in future under the new circumstances. Thereafter, it carried out medium-scale planning and put forward a small-scale design proposal. It proposed a new structure of space experience in the core area of Keelung as the starting point of the urban transformation. The issues that challenge the transformation of the core area of Keelung are as follows: First, Keelung Harbor is located in the edge cities of metropolitan expansion. How should we address the "marginalized" effect brought about by major cities? Second, how should we achieve the transition of Keelung Harbor from a logistic port into a passenger port and take relevant countermeasures? Third, how should we draw close the separation of the port from the city area and form the new space structure of the port and create opportunities by striving for the support of the central government. The "experience structure of Keelung urban space" structured by the characteristics of different scales in the space environment is used to describe the design. By drawing and analyzing the base, the study has made the following suggestions: Firstly, the space between mountains and the sea should be connected; secondly, the intermediary space structure between the mountain and the harbor should be adjusted; thirdly, the path system should be constructed to connect the downtown area to the harbor; and lastly, the main design strategies are proposed as follows: (A). The downtown area near the harbor should serve a major transit station to strengthen the connection between Keelung Harbor and the diverse tourism resources and facilities in hinterland. (B). The city footprints resulting from the transformation of the port’s industrial facilities should be regarded as assets and become the basis of new urban space experience. (C). Create space for urban experience and at the same time focus on the needs of local residents so that the space of mountains and sea in Keelung will become an experience structure shared by both local residents and tourists. Hence, by implementing the design, we expect Keelung to develop into an integrated city with its own features and to play a key role in promoting itself and the surrounding environment.

This thesis design mainly focuses on the space related issue of the waterfronts in a post-industrial city under the background of globalization and modernization trend, and the revival of a historical space. As a result of the plot of “cultural Love River” guiding program, Kaohsiung has launched series of spatial reform along the downriver bank upward. This paper selects Zong-du industrial zone which is located in the midstream of Love River as the subject of study and design practicing, and strives to seek a sustainable urban reform planning strategy to protest against the original one predominated by mercantilism. The issues are as follows: 1.Under the influence of globalization and the context of a post-industrial city, Kaohsiung , the so-called “The Ocean Capital”, how to manifest its ambitious spatial attempt on the urban planning? By what organism it carries out and what it brings? 2.Instead of taking the original urban planning on this site, criticize it and bring up an idea of sustainable viewpoint to decrease the probable cost. 3.Could a historical space be the corner stone of a new urban contexture? And could it retain citizens’ mutual memories towards the city by the rich intertexture of its surrounding cultural background and its nearby material environment? This thesis quotes the idea of eco-museum to propose a cultural landscape loop planning which is based on local history, culture and ecology surrounding Love River. By the reuse of the factory building on this industrial zone and the transformation of factory image, the design tries to find out a spatial solution for linking local residents and the waterfronts. It also exposes the devastation to the residents’ memories towards their hometown caused by the ongoing destructive space creation under “cultural Love River” plan. Before the publishing of Zong-du industrial zone urban reform planning, this thesis provides a different urban vision from the traditional planning viewpoint. Take account of the local people, history and ecology as the priority for planning guiding, and hope by this way, we could keep the unique natural landscape, particular neighborhood texture and mutual memories of this city.

Full textThe regeneration of urban riverfronts has been consolidated as a trend in the post-industrial world to comprehensively tackle the lack of urbanity in these areas. Yet, many of them are prone to fluvial floods, thus bringing safety issues also to the fore. The demand to redevelop flood-prone areas within urban-regeneration interventions comes across the limits of traditional flood-management initiatives, which aim to eliminate contingencies in the relationships between cities and rivers, while often disregarding the roles of these to improve the quality of the urban realm. Moreover, relying solely on flood-defence strategies may hinder the recognition of floods as a hybrid sociocultural and natural subject, which, paradoxically, may positively account for structuring the urban landscape and the related sense of place. An emergent perspective spearheaded by spatial design – ‘design and floods’ – seeks to deal with floods through a more accommodating framework, which intends to surpass the usual vision of floods only as ‘technical problem’ longing for a ‘technical solution’. Therefore, considering that spatial design may act as a flood-adaptation tool to manage the vulnerability of built structures, what are the possible design stances towards floods that may foster effective adaptation? This research sought to understand how flood risk has been integrated into urban-regeneration projects, trying to grasp baseline conditions, strategies and mechanisms that may contribute to the adaptation of riverine spaces. Following a constructivist standpoint, in which fluvial floods are conceived as a designed condition, a multiple-case study was carried out, comprising three different European flood-prone urban projects: the Polis Programme around the Mondego River (in Coimbra, Portugal), the Scheldt Quays Master Plan (in Antwerp, Belgium) and the Plan Guide Bastide Brazza Nord, a neighbourhood by the Garonne River (in Bordeaux, France). The underlying contexts, design processes and actual outputs of these three cases were reconstituted through the lenses of floods. Despite the uniqueness of each case, our analyses suggest that the ‘design and floods’ approach presupposes handling flood adaptation in a wider sense, focusing not only on cities’ materiality (in their occasional flood experiences) but also on human mentalities. Accordingly, design practices are defied to manage and negotiate at once the physical and the sociocultural dimensions of flood risk, in contexts in which fluctuating conditions and multiple interests abound. Moreover, a process-oriented design perspective seems more attuned with the hybrid character of floods than an outcome-centred one, a condition that engenders an additional challenge for designers since their prevailing disciplinary cultures are often product (object) oriented. Based on these reflections, we propose a scale to measure the intensity of the interactions between safety and urbanity, which goes from ‘tolerating floods’ to ‘accommodating floods’ and finally to the ‘welcoming floods’ stage, thus echoing diversified design stances towards floods. The more positive ‘design with floods’ stance can ultimately be attained when both design and fluvial floods are synergistically blended into a single whole, while problem-solving and sense-making approaches are merged to provide a safe and enriched urban realm, without attempting to eliminate fluvial floods per se, accepted in all their complexity.
A regeneração de frentes urbanas ribeirinhas tem sido consolidada como uma tendência no mundo pós-industrial para abordar de modo abrangente a falta de urbanidade nessas áreas. Contudo, muitas destas são propensas a inundações fluviais, tornando também relevantes questões ligadas à segurança. A demanda atual por reocupar áreas propensas a inundações no âmbito de intervenções de regeneração urbana esbarra-se nos limites das iniciativas tradicionais de gestão das inundações, que buscam eliminar contingências nas relações entre cidades e rios, muitas vezes desconsiderando os papéis que estes podem desempenhar para uma melhor qualidade do ambiente urbano. Ademais, uma confiança excessiva nas estratégias defensivas contra as inundações pode dificultar o reconhecimento destas enquanto fenómenos híbridos (ao mesmo tempo socioculturais e naturais), que paradoxalmente podem contribuir de maneira positiva para a estruturação da paisagem urbana e do sentido de lugar. Uma perspetiva emergente orientada pelo projeto em diferentes escalas – ‘projeto e inundações’ – procura lidar com esse fenômeno de modo mais integrado, pretendendo ultrapassar a visão usual das inundações apenas como um ‘problema técnico’ requerendo uma ‘solução técnica’. Assim, considerando que o projeto pode funcionar como um meio de adaptação às inundações na gestão da vulnerabilidade das estruturas construídas, quais as possíveis posturas projetuais frente às inundações que podem promover uma adaptação efetiva? Esta pesquisa procurou entender como o risco de inundação tem sido integrado em projetos de regeneração urbana, tentando abarcar condições, estratégias e mecanismos de base que possam contribuir para a adaptação de espaços ribeirinhos. Seguindo o paradigma construtivista, no qual as inundações fluviais são entendidas como uma condição preconcebida, realizámos um estudo de casos múltiplos, composto por três projetos urbanos europeus suscetíveis a inundações fluviais: o Programa Polis em torno do Rio Mondego (em Coimbra, Portugal), o master plan para o cais ao longo do Rio Escalda (em Antuérpia, Bélgica) e o plan guide para Bastide Brazza Nord, um bairro margeando o Rio Garona (em Bordéus, França). Os contextos, processos projetuais e produtos efetivos dos três casos foram reconstituídos sob o prisma das inundações. Apesar da singularidade de cada caso, nossas análises sugerem que uma abordagem de ‘projeto e inundações’ deve considerar a adaptação às inundações num sentido mais amplo, concentrando-se não apenas na materialidade das cidades que vivenciam inundações ocasionalmente, mas também nas mentalidades humanas. Assim, as práticas projetuais são incitadas a gerir e negociar juntamente as dimensões física e sociocultural do risco de inundação, em contextos nos quais proliferam condições pouco estáveis e interesses múltiplos. Também, as práticas projetuais centradas no processo, diferentemente daquelas centradas no produto final, parecem mais sintonizadas com o caráter híbrido das inundações, condição que engendra um desafio adicional para os projetistas, uma vez que as culturas disciplinares predominantes são geralmente focadas na produção de objetos. Com base nessas reflexões, propomos uma escala para medir a intensidade das interações entre segurança e urbanidade, contemplando três estágios: ‘tolerância das inundações’, ‘acomodação das inundações’ e, finalmente, ‘boas-vindas às inundações’, expressando assim posturas projetuais diversificadas em relação a estes fenómenos. A postura mais positiva de ‘projeto com inundações’ pode finalmente ser atingida quando projeto e inundações fluviais são sinergicamente amalgamados num todo único, ao passo que abordagens de resolução de problemas e de atribuição de sentido são unidas para prover um ambiente urbano seguro e rico, sem tentar eliminar as inundações fluviais em si mesmas, as quais são aceitas em toda sua complexidade.
Le renouvellement de zones urbaines riveraines en perte d’urbanité s’est consolidé comme une tendance dans le monde postindustriel. Pourtant, bon nombre de ces zones sont susceptibles aux inondations fluviales, soulevant ainsi également des questions de sécurité. La demande actuelle de réaménagement de zones inondables dans le cadre d’interventions de renouvellement urbain se heurte aux limites des initiatives traditionnelles de gestion des inondations, qui cherchent à éliminer les contingences dans les relations entre les villes et les rivières, en négligeant souvent les rôles que ces dernières peuvent avoir dans l’amélioration de la qualité du milieu urbain. Par ailleurs, s’appuyer uniquement sur des stratégies de défense contre les inondations empêche la reconnaissance des inondations en tant que sujets hybrides, à la fois socioculturels et naturels, qui peuvent paradoxalement contribuer de façon positive à la structuration du paysage urbain et de l’esprit du lieu. Une perspective émergente guidée par la conception spatiale – ‘conception et inondations’ – s’efforce de gérer les inondations à travers un cadre plus holistique, qui vise à dépasser la vision habituelle des inondations uniquement en tant que ‘problème technique’ nécessitant d’une ‘solution technique’. Ainsi, partant de l’idée que la conception spatiale peut servir d’outil d’adaptation aux inondations pour gérer la vulnérabilité des structures bâties, quelles positions peuvent être prises par la conception des projets envers les inondations pour favoriser une adaptation efficace ? Cette étude a cherché à comprendre comment le risque d’inondation est actuellement intégré dans les projets de renouvellement urbain, en essayant de saisir les conditions, stratégies et mécanismes de base pouvant contribuer à l’adaptation des espaces riverains. En accord avec le paradigme constructiviste, selon lequel les inondations fluviales sont comprises comme une condition conçue, une étude de cas multiples a été menée, comprenant trois projets urbains européens en zones inondables : le Programme Polis autour du Mondego (à Coimbra, Portugal), le plan pour les quais de l’Escaut (à Anvers, Belgique) et le plan guide pour Bastide Brazza Nord, un quartier au bord de la Garonne (à Bordeaux, France). Les contextes, les processus de conception et les produits finaux de ces cas ont été reconstitués sous l’angle des inondations. Bien que chaque cas soit unique, nos analyses suggèrent qu’une approche ‘conception et inondations’ doit considérer l’adaptation aux inondations dans un sens plus large, en mettant l’accent non seulement sur la matérialité des villes (affectées occasionnellement par ces événements) mais aussi sur les mentalités humaines. De ce fait, les pratiques de conception sont mises au défi de gérer et de négocier à la fois les dimensions physiques et socioculturelles du risque d’inondation, dans des contextes marqués par des conditions instables et des intérêts multiples. De plus, une perspective de conception axée sur le processus semble plus adaptée au caractère hybride des inondations que celle axée sur le produit, ce qui requiert un effort supplémentaire de la part des concepteurs, habitués à une culture disciplinaire souvent centrée sur l’objet (en tant que produit). Partant de ces réflexions, nous proposons une échelle permettant de mesurer l’intensité des interactions entre sécurité et urbanité, qui comporte trois degrés : ‘tolérer les inondations’, ‘accommoder les inondations’ et enfin ‘accueillir les inondations’, reflétant ainsi des choix de conception diversifiés envers ces phénomènes. La position la plus positive, de ‘conception avec les inondations’, peut finalement s’accomplir lorsque projet et inondations fluviales sont combinés de manière synergique, alors que les approches orientées vers la résolution de problèmes et vers l’attribution de sens sont associées pour offrir un milieu urbain sûr et enrichi, sans chercher à éliminer les inondations fluviales en soi, acceptées dans toute leur complexité.

Urban waterfront design is evolving towards a higher need for ecological considerations. Issues like flood control, water pollution, habitat conservation, cultural identity and environmental education are all having stronger influence in the development of new waterfront projects around the world. However, as observed in Taipei and New Taipei City, many riverside parks are still lacking of an integrative way to address all these issues, therefore the need for an observation criteria which allows to determine ways for improving the ecological characteristics of riverside parks. By using the principles of ecological regenerative design, ecosystem services, sustainable landscapes and waterfront design, and also by analyzing international examples of waterfront regeneration projects, this study developed a thoretical framework to first evaluate the current design of Dajia Riverside Park in Taipei. Then, on-site observations were conducted, along with the analysis of satellite images and historical data related to the Park, all of which allowed this research to understand the evolution process and current circumstances of Dajia Riverside Park. Finally, this study proposed re-design strategies in order to increase the ecological performance and cultural significance of this riverside park in Taipei City.

Since the steam engine is invented the development of the world has begun to accelerate. Excessive urbanization makes people''s activity life range smaller. The rhythm of life is getting faster. People can''t enjoy the happiness of life heartily in such a living environment. In recent years, People begin to review modernly and fast. The society of the high pressure causes the influence of the physiology and psychology on us. And try to slow down the speed of life and enjoy life. The concept of " Cittaslow " was born from this. Water is muther of everything. Also a origin of human development of civilization. There are close relationship with the rivers and creeks in the development and forming of urban. In Taichung, river flow through the center of the city. It's a beautiful thing that river cross over a city. For example: Seine River of Paris, Sumida of Japan, and Saint Antony river of USA, which give so much credit of city landscape. But today, with the transitions of urbanization and life style. The rivers and creeks in the city become“The Ditch". Which causes the fact of relation between rivers, creeks and people is estranged. Therefore, the purpose of this research is with the concept of Cittaclow, discuss the evolution of Lu-Chuan urban riverfront space regeneration, and create a roaming space. By designing practice, change the life style, mind storming, and rediscover the joys of life.

Full textThe current project work focuses mainly on the analysis of three key elements, and develops a reflection on the notions of the city, society and architecture. As a primary objective, this work intends to discuss the complex relationship of these themes presented within the current context of the population, the ethical role of architecture, modes of living and aging in the XXI century. The materialization of this discussion builds a proposal for a location and to response to a specific program. As proposed architecture in the city context, the complexity of the urban landscape assumes an essential starting point in understanding their heterogonous, plural, diverse and complex metabolism, which is in constantly changing. So the fundamental point is to know how society, also complex, diverse and constantly changing, interacts with the environment that surrounds it, how he perceives, understands and experiences. There is up to architecture to develop this relationship between the city and society, in a way to seeking a social and ethical responsibility in building spaces for the people. Faced with a complex reality, the main questions centres in what features should be part of the design of architectural space, which translates to individual to stay and use the same way? What should be the role of architecture in current reality? How to develop an ethical architecture based on the needs of each individual? These questions structure and organize the thinking throughout this work. After presenting the theoretical assumptions, the work proceeds to an analysis und understanding of the intervention area, exposing all variables embodying the proposed final design. It also presents the different levels of the project design, from the global perspective to a smaller scale, in particular the urban scale to the building concept. This process aims to provide a response to the contextual reality of the city and society itself, where the whole concept intends to provide an urban repair and regeneration, but must important, intends to develop an ethical and social integration. The ethical role of architecture is increasingly becoming an important part for the concept of accessible buildings, with quality, that can be used by all people without exception. To fulfil a city space for all.
