When I began my study of architecture ten years ago, I honestly believed that architecture could change the world. As I look back at how the American landscape has changed since then I realize that architecture has changed the world, but not necessarily in the way I imagined. As our population has grown architecture has reflected the increasing emphasis on consumerism, a decreased interest in public life and even less interest in the natural environment. Consequently terms like suburban sprawl have adequately been coined to describe the spreading wave of decentralized settlement that characterizes our landscape. Even though over 80% of the new homes schools and shopping facilities are now located in the suburbs, many designers still do not consider the suburbs to be within the field of architectural practice. I do not hold to this view and believe that this is where architecture can make the biggest difference and where the greatest opportunity for architects to shape the world may be found. What defines architecture today is not just a question of good or bad aesthetics, but is how the design impacts our culture. With each building, landscape or urban plan we create we have the opportunity to reinforce current values or to establish new values which can lead us to explore more sustainable solutions. This thesis looks at a site in suburban Miami and demonstrates how we can redirect our growth toward the protection of our natural resources and contribute important public space that celebrates the value of our environment.

Walkability is a challenge for most suburban metropolitan areas. Specifically, the Kansas City suburban cities of Overland Park, Olathe, Leawood, and South KCMO have sprawled and disconnected urban patterns and a low average walkability score of 37 out of 100 (Walk Score, 2013, https://www.redfin.com/how-walk-score-works/). The Indian Creek Trail, an existing recreational trail that extends throughout the southern Kansas City neighborhoods, has the potential to improve walkability. It connects major destinations, including residential communities, businesses, and commercial districts throughout the suburban neighborhoods. Many studies have analyzed suburban sprawl and walkability, but few studies have identified the possibility of enhancing existing trail systems to provide for greater mobility, connectivity, and activity. The study examines the feasibility of reusing an existing trail system to act as a catalyst to promote walkability in the Kansas City suburbs. The goal of the project to create a paradigm shift in the way people think about transport and development. The purpose is to identify how centering walkable strategies around an active transportation network can promote walkability in sprawled suburban areas. The question: How can focusing improvement around existing trail infrastructure enhance walkability in suburban areas? has guided the project and helped define strategies for improvement. This project identifies the Indian Creek Trail’s current and potential uses from an in depth community and spatial analysis. Surveys, interviews, and observations were conducted within 13 major destination areas along the Indian Creek Trail. The results were then analyzed to create an evidence‐based design framework that will address walkable concerns. The project results showed there were three primary causes for walkable limitations along the trail network: current transportation trends, suburban development patterns, and social perceptions. Understanding these important aspects of walkability helped identify a framework for improvement. The findings from the analysis determined the site restrictions and prospects of creating a walkable environment along the Indian Creek Trail. The results identified primary locations of needed intervention and revealed major opportunities for connection. The design then applied walkable components based on analysis findings to create nodes of complete communities. Design decisions were tailored to amend community needs and alter traditional transport perceptions. The objective of the designs was to address specific walkable limitations to create reasonable solutions in suburban areas. The project identifies 5 primary components of walkability that can be used to create a walkable plan. Future studies would revolve around implementing the designs and analyzing the effectiveness to create a model that can be applied to enhance walkability for other suburban areas. Ultimately, the results could establish how improved walkability can promote multi‐modal transportation opportunities where population, density, diversity, and funding do not allow for typical transportation or development enhancements.

Texto completoThis thesis examines the question if residence in a suburban area – region surrounding Berlin taken as an example – imposes constraints on women’s day-to-day life despite the social impact of post-Fordism and post-Socialism. One can assume gender-specific differences since suburban residential areas have been labelled as “women-unfriendly” for decades. Ten study areas have been chosen with the objective to establish if any and what particular course of action is available to female residents to compensate the likely constraints. The empirical analysis proves that the lack of employment sites available for women in the vicinity of the place of their residence comes into collision with women’s paramount role in reproductive labour (mobility) and results in evident constraints imposed on the majority of female suburban residents. The division of labour is assumed to strongly determine gender roles to this day. The availability of paid work in a given area along with the access to childcare institutions determines women’s chances at the job market. Different patterns of socialisation were found to play an essential role in the work as well as in the mobility practices, since people of the East- or the West German origin seem still to be shaped by the respective society models. The constraints on work and mobility can hardly be compensated through the resources of social capital since women’s “typically suburban” art of living hinders a cooperative search for solutions. The results presented in this thesis urge to rise to the challenge of designing the suburban areas and, with the help of better knowledge of specific area divisions, to facilitate suburban planning which would better meet the needs of both men and women.

America's Midwest experienced its most rapid growth after the age of industrialization, stretching the suburban landscape beyond our wildest imagination, to a state of ubiquity. In the case of Iowa, this suburbanization comes at the sacrifice of the most valuable virgin agricultural land. In the midst of this vast expansion of suburban sprawl, we arrive at the critical moment to end this recklessness. Simultaneously, the Internet's pervasiveness perpetuates the gross expansion of the metropolis, appending the city with enormous big boxes to house the world's digital information. Central Iowa is now home to enormous buildings by Google and Microsoft, consuming an exponentially growing amount of Iowa's renewable energy as it exhausts the waste heat into Iowa's rural flatlands. This thesis offers a design proposal for an aggregated suburbia,augmenting the suburban landscape by capitalizing on the trend of enormous data center expansion and, simultaneously,subverting the trend of suburban sprawl. The synthesis of data centers and a new dense suburban center allows the reuse of otherwise wasted energy while calling awareness to the Internet's monumental physical footprint and output of waste heat. The mile-long data center is used as a "microclimate platform" for cultural activities and space for the public collective, providing suburbs with a public identity and heralding a new age of industrialization.

Texto completoAbstract
The mixed messages provided in The Buddha of Suburbia together with its prevalent use of humour are the focal point for this essay. The aim is to defend my thesis statement that humour provides a justifiable forum for the critique and presentation of society, enabling the facilitation of serious, effective and powerful perspectives. As critical standpoints a mixture of Postcolonial and Marxist theories are applied together with Bakhtin’s theory of carnevalesque. By comparing historic facts with the portrayed environment depicted in the novel, a message is delivered that a change of a different worldview is required. This message is displayed with various uses of humour, wit and satire, which provide an allegorical veil for its seriousness. This analysis shows that there are no seeming changes in the lives of the characters, but it highlights that a need for a change of views is important.

Urban designers, planners and social commentators have argued that the contemporary suburban landscape of isolated subdivisions, office parks, and malls is devoid of identity and meaning. Critics protest the environmental impact of suburban development patterns and the increasing fragmentation of communities; yet Americans continue to locate in the suburbs in increasing numbers. Designers have responded to the problems of suburban sprawl with plans for new self-contained towns, while few proposals have been made for retrofitting existing suburbs. This thesis explores the relationship between spatial structure, perception, and behavior in the contemporary suburban landscape from a neighborhood perspective. Twenty-four interviews were conducted with residents of Lexington and Burlington, two suburban towns in eastern Massachusetts. These towns have similar histories and demographic characteristics but distinctly different patterns of development. Lexington has retained a semi-rural, residential character, while Burlington has developed more of its land and encouraged commercial and industrial uses. In each of the two towns, two contrasting neighborhoods were selected for study. Each of these four neighborhoods represents a different type of development, based on its street system, density, lot sizes, access to open space, and proximity to shops and services. In each of the four neighborhoods, six interviews were conducted using questionnaires, maps and photographs. The interview data from these four neighborhoods, combined with an analysis of existing spatial patterns, suggest that five inter-related themes are important in suburban town and neighborhood design. These themes are i) integrated road networks, ii) visible and accessible open spaces, iii) social town centers, iv) walkable neighborhoods, and v) active front yards. Based on these themes, a set of related principles is proposed for interventions to improve the existing suburban environment.

The phenomenon of Los Angeles, an aggressive thriving metropolis sprawling across the Mojave Desert to the Pacific Coast, is inseparable from its complex history of purchasing, transporting and consuming what is arguably the city's most sensitive need: water. For almost a century, the physical artifacts that were invented as a means to secure, manage and protect this supply have successfully distributed water throughout Los Angeles. However, the increasingly pervasive presence of water infrastructure has also had negative impacts on the quality of public space in LA's suburbs. In scale, shape and tectonics, water infrastructure alienates the human experience of the public realm. The presence of water infrastructure in Los Angeles suburbs, which already carry the stigma of monotonous architecture and bland public space, only aggravates the problem of a landscape that is hostile to the pedestrian. Water infrastructure in suburbia must be recognized for what it is-a critical element for the growth and support of human settlements, but also a source of further estrangement of the very people meant to benefit from it. This thesis proposes a solution that mediates the spatial divide, infuses multi-use of the actual artifact and raises awareness of ecological and economic issues in an effort to reinvent water infrastructure as a catalyst for engagement, education and community.
