The modern world dictates severe conditions, involving people in a continuous process of changes in the environment. Active building and construction work, urban densification are rapidly transforming environment, creating a new architectural space with intense impact on people. In this regard, there is much tension around the issue of provision of urban amenities, forming comfortable environment for a full human life. The comfort of the urban environment is determined by a set of visual perception of the constituent elements of this environment: architecture, design, landscape and their harmonious unity with nature. A remarkable component of visual perception, making urban space aesthetically appealing, is small architecture.Small architecture in Russia has always played a special role. Being perceived in the context of space, creating at the same time a certain mood and emotions, small forms diversified architectural environment, making it aesthetically appealing. The question about the direction of urban policy in the field of provision of urban amenities was made in 1921, when the first Congress on improvement of populated areas took place. With this legislation originated overall urban development approach as inseparable system layout of the city, its architectural appearance and landscaping. Architectural workshops developed model projects of small forms with recommendations for improvement, which helped to inexpensively create individual features in urban development. At present, the provision of urban amenities have moved to a new level, becoming more grandscale, capital-intensive.The main requirements for small architectural forms are to create a harmonious space, the fusion of architecture with the natural elements. The most harmonious perception of small architectural forms in the environment is achieved through the use of natural building materials. The use of natural materials in urban environment represents nature, creates a comfortable environment psychologically close to a person. Wood, among other natural materials, has an undoubted advantage. Absolute compatibility, unique design quality, expressive possibilities of the material and its ability to form a comfortable living environment, harmoniously combined with other materials, provide greater demand for wood in modern architecture.In the architecture of small forms wood is used everywhere: on the territories of residential quarters, parks and recreation areas, areas of office and commercial development, road environment, etc. A leading role in shaping the public space belongs to small structures for various functional purposes, such as benches, gazebos, sheds, sports facilities, children’s playgrounds.In the modern wooden architecture of small forms two directions are clearly traced. In the first one there is the desire to escape from the boring similar forms, transforming small architectural forms in art objects representing not only material, but also artistic value. The second direction is based on the centuries-old practice of folk art. Having been formed for centuries folk culture and national traditions fully meet the artistic tastes of the modern society. Summing up, it should be noted that the use of wood in architecture of small forms is a universal solution to shape the ecological framework of the urban environment, which is especially important in solving the problems of the modern city.

Full textAbstract:
In the past two decades numerous large-scale informal markets have emerged on the fringes of European cities in the wake of global geopolitical transformations. Relying on individualised long-distance connections and adapting to diverse local situations, they produce a proliferating array of unregulated urban architectures while providing habitats for millions of undocumented existences. One such case is the infamous Arizona Market not far from the north Bosnian town of Brc̆ko, a place that has been transformed from a border guard post into a major hub for people trafficking and prostitution and now into a multi-ethnic centre of ubiquitous consumption. Another one, Izmailovo Market in the north-east of Moscow, the largest informal trading centre in the region with links to all parts of the Russian Federation and beyond, has grown into a Babylonian site of 15 specialised trading areas that rivals the Moscow Kremlin both in terms of size and visitor attractiveness. And when the 22nd World Congress of Architecture was held in Istanbul under the motto ‘Grand Bazaar of Architectures’, a bazaar of a very different kind traded outside the tourist centres: a vast network of provisional, informal street markets that establish themselves right alongside the building sites of official urban regeneration, beneath terraces of motorways and next to newly constructed tram lines. Before exploring the dynamics of these spaces in more detail, let us address briefly the socio-economic conditions underlying the rise of informal markets.

AbstractThe period 1922-1943 —the so-called fascist venthenium— was a fruitful and creative time in Italian architecture. Its rich and plural fundamentals established singular relationships between classical and modern cultures, which transcends their historical moment and present new topics for analysis and reflection. To know and appreciate its architecture, we will use the journeys of the professionals who came to Rome from all over the world to participate in the International Congress of Architects in 1935, considering the Congress as a space of opportunity for that reflection, and taking the visits around Rome scheduled by the organizers as a source of the architectural and urban interests of its time, and a reflection of the trends that were stirring then in Italy.ResumenEl periodo entre 1922 y 1943 —el llamado ventenio fascista— fue una época fecunda y creativa en la arquitectura italiana. Sus bases ricas y plurales establecieron relaciones singulares entre el mundo cultural clásico y el moderno, que trascienden su momento histórico y plantean en nues-tros días nuevos temas de análisis y reflexión. Para conocer y valorar su arquitectura y su modelo urbano, nos serviremos del viaje al que fueron llevados los profesionales que de todo el mundo llegaron a Roma para participar en el Congreso Internacional de Arquitectos en 1935, considerando el Congreso como un espacio de oportunidad para esa reflexión y tomando las visitas a la ciudad programadas por los organizadores como fuente de los intereses arquitectónicos y urbanos de su tiempo, reflejo de las tendencias que se agitaban entonces en Italia.

In this paper there is presented a new space structure system called the PRACTIX system. A review is given of the methodology when using the new solution, with an emphasis on the technology in the manufacturing of the elements and their development into larger parts. Also, there are presented some examples of practical applications of the PRACTIX system for roof structures for petrol stations, and two sports halls, constructed in the Republic of Macedonia. The system is also appropriate for realization of other very different conventional and modern buildings, like industrial halls and warehouse canopies for bus and railway stations, sports stadiums, congress halls and exhibition pavillions, theatres, restaurants, airport hangers etc.

Full textAbstract:
“Something for Nothing”, pause containers, container buildings and other interpretations of the category “Containers” were raised for the first time by the XIX Congress of Architecture in Barcelona as a topical problem of the profession. The representation of architecture as a container, when the form does not follow the function at all, and the content actually becomes a replaceable and transformable filling, changes the traditional ideas about the impossibility to transfer the content of a work into another Form.The ideology of hybrid spaces and flexible offices, the need for reconstruction/modernization of historical and industrial buildings and structures, renovation and gentrification of degrading environments and objects give special importance to the discussion of the “container” as an ongoing discourse of the profession.

The aim of this paper is to propose a design answer to the United States issue of public space through the use of art, using the city of Dallas as an example. A pragmatic way to interpret space is the grid. The first analysis are aimed toward one of the most ancient systems of formulating “urban” conglomerates, the roman grid. In the USA, it is the Continental Congress’s Land Ordinance of 1785 to prescribe the usage of the Continental grid. Ideally the two grids have the same role, the significant difference is their scale. This grid can only be compared to a colossal scale, here space is subordinated to time. This mutation is in line with the urban development processes of the city of Dallas. This is why, the University Crossing Trail Public Improvement Distric, along with the Southern Methodist University of Dallas, have developed a collaboration to promote and regenerate an old trail of the city into an art corridor. Even if not constructed using the Jeffersonian grid, the apparent orderliness of its blocks accentuates the complete supremacy of circulation, while the shapes and turns of the infrastructure collaborate to a new idea of beauty within the landscape of the city. The proposed solution is to intervene with three different urban art projects that have been placed along the main and different types of infrastructures of the city. The intention is to invert the subordination of space that returns protagonist where the urban art projects have been inserted, without ever negating the principal condition of circulation and speed. Because this apparent contradiction requires a specific and cautious sensitivity, it is the responsibility of art and architecture to mediate between audacious locations, functional solutions and the world of visual representation.

Full textAbstract:
Background: Split is a city in the Mediterranean, situated on Croatia’s coastline. Split’s northern coast has a long-stand-ing industrial function and harbors the city’s first electri-cal substation, designed by modernist architect Josip Maria Kodl. Objective: The goal of this work was to envision a science center in Split’s industrial zone in Dujmovača (the northern coast of the Split peninsula), comprising a science museum with a research and congress center. The programmatic and spatial analyses of the science center’s amenities and the proposal as a whole demonstrate the potential of this forgotten space in Split and breathe new life into Kodl’s ar-chitectural heritage. Methods: The proposed solution uses a dialogical narrative between a conservation, contextual, programmatic, and theoretical approach within a strict orthogonal structure, fostering the development of alternative associations and elaboration of architectural details.Results: The proposed solution constitutes a complex of multiple interconnected and flexible elements. This al-lows different parts of the Science Center to function inde-pendently of each other. This paper provides an analysis of design steps and methods, the proposal’s advantages and limitations, and the way the repurposing of industrial heri-tage was approached. Conclusion: The position of the Science Center in Dujmovača would provide one of the first impressions when entering Split on the future metro line. By reconcil-ing landscape and industrial architecture, the proposed building complex offers a framework for presenting various kinds of modifiable content, for both the pres-ent and the future.

Full textAbstract:
Urban green spaces are an important part of public open spaces and a common service provided by a city, town, or municipal council. In Nairobi City County, green spaces have been increasingly threatened by overcrowding, poor planning, weak management structures, and illegal alienation thus denying city residents access to the much-needed recreation and leisure facilities. As the population increases in urban areas, their activities impact the environment and therefore the ecosystem services. This study was done with the Principle of Intelligent Urbanism in mind, as the most prolific urban development theory developed by the International Congress of Modern Architecture. Quantitative and qualitative methods were used to collect data while a cross-sectional survey designs and stratified random sampling of the green spaces was employed, based on the location within the urban core and peri-urban of Nairobi County. Four green spaces (Karura Forest, Ngong Road Forest, Nairobi Arboretum, and City Park) with diverse characteristics and attributes were selected. A sample population of 384 visitors to the green spaces was surveyed for their perceptions of the functions, uses, and benefits of the green spaces. Our findings showed that management structures and population growth are the main causal factors responsible for changes in the attributes of urban green spaces.

Full textAbstract:
Throughout the history of mankind, there have been great cultures that have excelled in the creation of architectural works that endure to this day; these works have been catalogued of great architectural value for multiple characteristics. Today, with the globalization of information, architecture has undergone a dizzying change, the distinctive characteristics of the styles marked in history have been mixed, creating an eclectic architecture, the function has gone to the background, the form prevails over the structural and functional, magazine spaces are conceived in places that do not correspond without considering the context in which they are located, so there is no correct definition of the value of the current architectural work. From the above, how to know what characteristics give true value to an architectural work, and if the beauty of architecture always represents the good of humanity, this academic essay addresses the analysis and search for the relationship between ethics, aesthetics and design praxis. Through critical reflection and discourse analysis, ethics and aesthetics in architecture are contextualized, relating the processes of conquest, abstraction, transformation and generation of new knowledge, in order to interpret how the architectural work influences the daily life of man and society.

Full textAbstract:
Considering the view of hospital waste as dangerous and potentially infectious, the treatment given may be diffuse and inadequate. In this context, this work aimed to investigate the possibility of adapting recycling methods to various hospital waste, to generate energy to feed back the hospital building. Solid waste, especially health waste, is today a major pollutant of the environment and the legislation exempts the State from responsibility for its illegal disposal in common landfills. Hospital administrators may package and store in a way that does not consider the type of collection, transportation, treatment, and destination system. The current legislation lacks more in-depth research in the area to work in a more functional way and consider the possibility of recycling to generate products that can be used again, with minimal dumping and damage to the environment. Currently, hospital buildings do not have processes that enable total efficiency of their structure and ways to feed back into the building itself. It is still necessary, in most cases, to use extra power generators and dispose of water, garbage and other materials that can be reused. It was only in 2010 that the law establishing the National Solid Waste Policy was approved, after twenty years of discussions in the National Congress. This law establishes that environmental education is a fundamental instrument for success in this purpose of changing a culture in relation to waste disposal. In fact, garbage is a word that has already been proscribed by law, and today we speak of waste and rejects, because everyone should take advantage of this material. There is also a concern with improving the quality of life of human beings, the maintenance of life on the planet and the survival of the ecosystem. Doubts arise about what to do with the production and with what has already been produced of waste so that it does not cause further irreversible damage to the environment. It is these doubts that arose for the research theme. To support the answers to the questions raised in this study, the buildings of the Regional Hospital of Taguatinga (HRT - DF) and the Regional Hospital of Santa Maria (HRSM - DF) were studied, as references. Also the ENSP-FIOCRUZ Thesis, 2008 – Araujo, E. P. quality of life, clean energy production, necessary changes in legislation and their applications in architectural design. In the end, a booklet was prepared for the user campaign and an architectural project with the appropriate space in the hospital for the storage of the waste until the destination, thus being able, in various ways, to feed back into the building.

Full textAbstract:
The human brain trabeculae contain strands of collagen tissues connecting the arachnoid to the pia mater. In this paper the mechanotransductions of the external loads to the head passing through different trabecular architectures of the subarachnoid space were investigated. This has been accomplished by creating several local 2-D models consist of skull, dura mater, arachnoid, trabecular architecture and the brain. Different orientations of several architectures of the trabeculae were also analyzed. All models were subjected to the same loading and constraints. The strains in the brain for each model of the architecture and morphology were determined and compared to other corresponding models. It is concluded that the strain in the brain is less where the tree-shape trabeculae are upright, where the branches are attached to the arachnoid mater and the stems are attached to the pia mater. In addition, in the case of other morphologies the strain in the brain is less when the ratio of the trabecular area to the CSF space is less.

Housing is one of the most essential needs of humanity since the beginning of existence. The discipline of architecture has emerged and developed based on this need and has continued to evolve with the advancement of civilization and technology. When looking at the history of architecture, it can be seen that the visualization of architectural design has a long history. Nowadays, with the parallel development of computer technologies, architectural visualization techniques have also greatly advanced. Virtual reality (VR) technology is used in many sectors such as education, health, and entertainment today. The discipline of architecture enables designers to visualize their designs in a realistic way. Especially in the architecture field, where isualization is very important, the use of this technology is crucial in increasing the realism of the user's experience in the design phase. VR is a developing and wide-spreading technology in the field of architecture these days. Although there are studies on this subject in literature, studies which are examining the effect of VR technology in architectural visuals on people's sense of reality and feelings about the VR experience are limited.

What I am trying to do this morning is talk a bit about what I think of as the geography of power and really the idea is that there are several geographies of power. And then attempt something which is somewhat of an experiment and that is to connect it with questions of architecture, particularly certain questions of architecture. The notion that to some extent what I think of as an architecture of centrality, and I should clarify in case you haven’t guessed yet that I am not an architect and have never studied architecture. I am a political economist who is interested in space and via that venue sort of keeps stumbling onto architecture and questions about architecture and am increasing intrigued by them. But in terms of power I repeat the notion that something which one could think of as an architecture of centrality has been a key factor, of course, in the representation of power. Really in building those places where there is power mongering rather than perhaps power as such like Congress, parliaments, markets, stock exchanges, etc.

<div class="section abstract"><div class="htmlview paragraph">Traditional ground vehicle architectures comprise of a chassis connected via passive, semi-active, or active suspension systems to multiple ground wheels. Current design-optimizations of vehicle architectures for on-road applications have diminished their mobility and maneuverability in off-road settings. Autonomous Ground Vehicles (AGV) traversing off-road environments face numerous challenges concerning terrain roughness, soil hardness, uneven obstacle-filled terrain, and varying traction conditions. Numerous Active Articulated-Wheeled (AAW) vehicle architectures have emerged to permit AGVs to adapt to variable terrain conditions in various off-road application arenas (off-road, construction, mining, and space robotics). However, a comprehensive framework of AAW platforms for exploring various facets of system architecture/design, analysis (kinematics/dynamics), and control (motions/forces) remains challenging. While current literature on the AAW system incorporates modeling and control from the legged and wheeled-legged robots community, it lacks a systematic process of architecture selection and motion control that should be developed around critical quantifiable performance parameters. This paper will: (i) analyze a broad body of literature; and (ii) identify modeling and control techniques that can enable the efficient development of AAW platforms. We then analyze key performance measures with respect to traversability, maneuverability, and terrainability, along with an experimental simulation of an AAW vehicle traversing over uneven terrain and how active articulation could achieve some of the critical performance measures. Against the performance parameters, gaps within the existing literature and opportunities for further research are identified to potentially enhance AAW platforms’ performance.</div></div>

This research focuses on the historical and architectural analysis of Harbin City, especially on the interpretation of this urban space through historical traces, taking Lao Ding Feng architecture as an example. Much of the history of the city focuses on the Russian and Japanese invasions, so such aspects as architectural styles and the construction of the railway are attributed to the occupation of these countries, more especially to the Russian occupation. The research presents a qualitative methodology and bibliographic review of the baroque-style buildings found in Harbin, which reveals that many buildings today have endured over time and become one of the historical monuments of the city.

Full textAbstract:
<p>As the arrangement of modern performance art evolves to be more dynamic and fluid, the physical and programmatic flexibility of performance spaces plays a vital role in the long-term sustainability of these facilities. Because of its transformable nature and ability to provide unprecedented flexibility, kinetic architecture is a fast-growing field which integrates architecture with electro-mechanical and structural engineering. Building functionality and performance integration is enhanced by moving various elements to reconfigure a space to the desires of its artists. Retractable roofs have been used in stadiums and other types of facilities to control environmental effects; however, this case study demonstrates how kinetic architecture has been creatively adapted to provide a highly flexible performance and exhibit space.</p><p>This paper provides a brief overview of the design and construction of The Shed at Hudson Yards. This twelve- story high moving structure, weighing 3725 tonnes (8,000,000 pounds), is designed to be moved from its nested position over a fixed building to its deployed position over the adjacent plaza. The Shed’s deployed position creates an enclosed space similar in size and scale to the main concourse of Grand Central Terminal. For additional flexibility, The Shed also features large movable wall sections which can be opened allowing air and pedestrian movement through the plaza space.</p>

This developed by the development of sustainable concepts and focusing on utilizing the natural energy, including solar energy as main source for natural lighting. So, this search determines the designing and planning parameters which achieve the maximum possible natural illumination to serve the sustainable architectural goals from social, economic and environmental viewpoints. Then applying the theoretical frame on a collection of building in Aleppo to reach parameters meeting the principal determinations of natural lighting design in building to realize clear imaginations in knowledge and application which assist in decreasing power consumption average and to be the base in developing the designing operation within the architectural concepts and sustainable buildings in Aleppo. The research problem is crystallized in the lack of knowledge and application of the designing parameters of the natural lighting in selected samples from Aleppo buildings and the effects on the visual and hygiene environment within the architectural space, as the using of the artificial illumination is considered a crescent burden for the energy economies of that buildings, the research concluded by the recommendations and the result. Key words: Natural Lighting, Sustainable Architecture, Passive Solar Energy.

Beyond being a shelter, houses are such structures which obtain meanings shaped by the influence of culture, particularly reflecting the society’s socio-cultural structure. As a time-khronos and space-topos pattern, the houses reflect the characteristics of the culture or ethnic group which they are part of, while on the other hand, they reflect the images of the individual’s essence as a communicative action. The effect of climate and typology, which are physical components of culture, as well as social components of culture, such as value systems, belief, lifestyle and habits, are cardinal factors in the formation of traditional houses. In this respect, traditional structures are visual representation spaces that narrates their own story, like verbal culture, and they convey their unique codes through visuality. This study, which discusses traditional architecture as a cultural text, aims to reveal traditional Urfa houses through analytical readings, within the context of visual semiology.. The samples selected within the scope of the study will be evaluated according to the context of stylistic features they are part of, such as plan and spatial perspective, the location of the houses, and detections regarding the visual culture will be discussed through the cultural and architectural design approach of Umberto Eco.
