The power of less
This chapter discusses the power of less. It is part of a collection which demonstrates the predilection for experiment within the design studio, the ceaseless impulse for change, the reorientation of studio assignments, and the power inherent in the enquiring minds of the hugely dedicated studio teachers
The Architectural Teaching Paradox: The Practice-Based PhD as a Compass in Navigating through the Incommunicable
The reflections developed in this paper took place from a sentence that architect Botta pronounced during the conference ‘The Practice of Teaching’ held at the Biennale Architettura 2018 – 16th International Architecture Exhibition. In that context Botta stated “It is not possible to teach architecture, but it is possible to learn architecture”1. This statement unveils the paradox inherent in architectural education on two different levels of reflection: first, reveals a truth about the different facets of architectural education that can be taught such as history, theory, technology etc., whereas the practice of architecture itself cannot be actually taught. The second stage of the reflection reveals an even more interesting feature of architectural education: design and the design practice are in fact taught but we do not have a clear understanding of how the process happens. Such anomaly suggests the existence of a nebulous space between teaching and learning in architecture and multiple questions arise from such reflections: how can one teach the matter of design? How is operational knowledge transferred from teachers to learners? Can one be trained on how to transfer knowledge or can one rely solely on their innate hunch
Cultural brokerage : inventaris van (inter)nationale voorbeeldpraktijken van culturele en ruimtelijke toe-eigeningsprocessen van ruimte in transitie
Abstract: Met de overkapping van de ring komen nieuwe opportuniteiten vrij. Voor de onderbouw, voor de bovenbouw, voor de aanliggende wijken. De uitdaging voor de bouwheer is om de \u2018grote verbinding\u2019 niet enkel vanuit een infrastructurele dimensie te benaderen, maar ook vanuit een maatschappelijk-culturele dimensie. De langdurigheid van de werf is hierbij een kwaliteit om processen van (culturele) toe-eigening tot stand te laten komen, lokale baten te genereren en een duurzaam draagvlak waar te maken eerder dan als een hinderende werf ervaren te worden.Het onderzoeksproject Cultural Brokerage bracht 123 (lokale) actoren en 67 internationale voorbeeldpraktijken van ruimtelijke en culturele toe-eigening in kaart, op basis van hun toepasbaarheid in een context van langdurige werf. Gerangschikt volgens alfabet zijn deze referenties integraal terug te vinden in bijlage, een selectie wordt behandeld in dit begeleidend rapport. De inventaris vertrekt vanuit de principes van het \u2018verzoenen\u2019, \u2018plaats maken\u2019 en \u2018memorie maken\u2019. Onder \u2018verzoenen\u2019 worden tijdelijke en gerichte acties verstaan die als doel hebben potenti\ueble knelpunten tussen werf en wijk te ontzenuwen en lokale noden te anticiperen. Het \u2018plaats maken\u2019 is gericht op het uitzetten van sociale en ruimtelijke ankers voor de toe-eigening van een continu veranderend landschap. De inventaris reikt daarnaast ook voorbeelden aan die een geheugenfunctie installeren als katalysator bij het totstandkomen van nieuwe identiteiten (memorie maken).Het rapport volgt de structuur van het gelopen traject met tussentijdse \u2018foresight sessions\u2019 waarin opdrachtgever Lantis met de Design Sciences Hub in dialoog trad. Frederik Vandyck co\uf6rdineerde het onderzoek in overleg met Alexander D\u2019Hooghe en Sven Verbruggen. Marc Jacobs, Marleen Goethals en Johan de Walsche brachten kennis aan vanuit hun respectievelijke achtergronden inzake \u2018memorie maken\u2019, \u2018verzoenen\u2019 en \u2018plaats maken\u2019
From Aldo Rossi to Rem Koolhaas, Architectural research and design teaching of Hybrid building
La città contemporanea è caratterizzata da una discontinuità programmatica, che non è più il prodotto della “ città per parti”, ma l’effetto indotto dal fenomeno urbano delle Reti di città. Una delle manifestazioni architettoniche più evidenti è il proliferare di edifici ibridi, soprattutto in prossimità di importanti nodi di scambio dell’accessibilità intermodale
Research by Design: A paradigm shift?
In this paper we will argue that architectural research is becoming more and more important, not only in academia but also in architectural practice. Moreover, a shift is taking place from using and absorbing research methods from other disciplines towards building on the own specific strength of the discipline of architecture, i.e. using design and creative practice as a method to generate knowledge and disclose unknown aspects of reality. In doing so, this paper tries to place the Delft ARENA meeting Architectural Research Network Meeting (November 2013) in perspective.status: Publishe

Prototypes and Paradigms
After 10 years of exploring the possibilities and ways to integrate Research-by-Design into Architecture Design Studio Teaching and phd Theses in Architecture, Landscape Architecture and Urbanism at various universities in Europe and around the world, the time has come to investigate these matured/maturing research approaches in relation to existing paradigms of architectural research & design. The Delft Faculty of Architecture and The Built Environment will thus host, in collaboration with the arena Architectural Research Network, the 1st Meeting of a series, which explores and discusses all of the existing and emerging prototypes and paradigms at phd level in architecture faculties throughout Europe.OLD Public Buidin
