MOTIVATION


As my education career reaches its end, and I am making my first steps into the professional world of architecture I sat down and wrote these lines. It was not easy for someone like me from a small country like Morocco from a small family of two teachers, and from a small dreamer who just wanted to draw to get a glimpse of what is actually happening out there, and it was definitely not hard for me to lose my way from time to time and forget about my goals and my motivations while taking some life-changing decision a rich education curriculum in 4 different countries that made me believe that this is actually just the start of a very long journey of self-improvement and discovery, in one of the most exciting and shapeshifting professions in the world. These lines will hopefully help me walk steadily toward this path that I have drawn to my self in these last couples of years, while writing them I couldn’t help but remember the sleepless nights, the stress, and the weird dreams about submissions that every architecture student will eventually go throw, these bittersweet flavoured experiences are as I am sure of it nothing compared to real life commitment as I had the privilege to experience my self, they are what make life interesting and worthwhile, what makes me crave for more, and eventually break free from my limits. I am writing these lines to tell whoever is reading that I am simply a hard-working architect who happens to love what he does, and who makes sure it’s done the right way. I have assembled a various set of skills that will allow me to work in any kind of environment and adapt to all systems, be it office or site I am here to make something beautiful and functional happen. Sincerely, Remli Abderrahmane

“If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his language, that goes to his heart” NELSON MANDELA

When you make the effort to speak someone else’s language, even if it’s just basic phrases here and there, you are saying to them, “I understand that you have a culture and identity that exists beyond me. I see you as a human being, and I respect you” Cultural identity is not only defined by language, religion, or traditions, the environment we live in influence the way we live and develop. In this case, study to understand “Ledeberg” a small community that has been neglected by the city for some time, its functions, and its problems it was a necessity to involve the people living there. Their stories and aspirations were the guidelines for this integral intervention with the sole purpose of improving their life. 2


After several weeks of conceptual research and participatory design, the project was able to adopt a more flexible approach. While leaving the focused on highway in its place, a new multicoloured program started hanging from beneath it. Depending on the different need of the initially questioned inhabitants, a chart was developed to label the category of the program and therefore give it a more structured position in the matrix. This process was later on framed by a physical mold represented in “Cradle to cradle� policy supporting containers. container: coffee shops, Bars, Comunity Center social

Many issues had to be taken seriously when using containers as a big portion of the work was also dedicated in promoting the use of these modulors by presenting it’s positive and negative aspects and highlighting how it can be used in a more efficient way to serve the different needs of the people while staying as flexible as possible. The work was concluded by shaping a flow of new programs stretching all the way beneath the highway by benefiting a community who played a major role in making their dreams come true and also the state providing the infrastructure who won’t have to demolish it but instead benefits from it.

PROMOTER(S)


“The design is fine, the renders don’t look that bad, and your sections are usable, I would say your project is 2% into being a builtable one’” ERIK GEENS

Cycle on was a project with a long history, started back in Turkey in the small city of Bursa 40 Km from Istnabul its conecpt was all about mobility. connecting two side of the city by a cycling path the design took a bold aproach by intreducing some lements that seemed for a bachelor student easely implementable, until now. In the frame of Building Integration and technologie the school of architecture at KuLeuven requires a concetrated year of technical studies where its student had to learn about the belgian standrats where it comes to fire safety, vantilations, strcuture calculation, isolation, water systems, sewej, and more,all of this knowledge required a template project to be implemented on, and my utopic project made the pick, in this briefe work I would like to take you over some of the most interresting material that we’ve ended with. 6


As the research got more detailed specific compromise had to be made. A new network of water system had to be suggested switching from the small scale of the building to the big one, connecting it to the sanitary system of the city, drainages and defining a scheme to deal with the clean, grey, and black water flow around the project. all using the Belgian standards as a reference to work with. The hot water was also a very important case we had to think about especially after we knew that we had to connect it to the technical compartment of the building in the basement.

From there it was necessary to start calculating how big the spaces are in order to find out how many occupants and fire exits need to be provided, also connect it to the water infrastructures to provide outdoor and indoor fire extinguishing systems.

7


That said, the work also covered other topics like material, insolation, finishing choices, acoustic in some newly introduced compartments like the conference rooms where we learned the importance of seating division, ceiling panels sound distortion, HVAC systems for crowded spaces, fire regulation concerning access and many other. The last part was more about finalising the building inside out by giving more reasoning of material, and technic choices of the facades and some other minor connections like doors, triple glazing windows, a shading system and a green roof. All in all the project received a really high grade from the tutors and proved to be a success.

“If you have knowledge, let others light their candles at it� MARGARET FULLER

Situated at the foot of the Pett Atlas, six hours away from Marrakech, lies Ouled Merzoug. A small village situated near the province of Ouarzazate. As you approach the historical sites and palm groves of Skoura, numerous kasbahs and threats cross your way. A lot of these Berber residential castles were destroyed during tribal wars n the last century. Now, the remnants are part of the UNESCO world heritage. A region rooted in history undergoing several renovation projects and attracting more and more firms, experts, and schools hence the case here; from all around the world who shows interest in the adobe building technics, local masters, and materials. a hidden jewel deep in the Moroccan south. 10

All of these elements were out initial guideline of intervention in the area after the mapping visite that helped us understand more the situation and make our choice of working on the local Kasbas as the main element of interest and later on connecting it to our topic.

12


The inner design process was one of the hardest after we dealt with what we want the project to provide, the shells as we like to call them of the chosen Kasbah were not in a good condition and lacked maintenance as it can be seen in the illustrations. Fortunately enough the team didn’t hold back in the mapping stage while using satellite, laser, scaling technics and also local traditional methods like the water tube technic to craft a draft that was later on digitalised of every damaged wall to know what and what not to repair/demolish. in addition to that, a scheme was introduced to frame the work inside these structures and to follow some of the design studios goals too while maintaining the delicate connection between the new and the existing on the site.

As the design concept implements the newly built Kasbas came from the ground and shall go back to it. Almost all materials used it ranging from Palmiers beams, to rammed earth walls, were the extra values that made The candle of knowledge more Moroccan than ever, while integrating ventilations system and adopting geometries and planting methods inside some towers that the region is famous for.

13


As a result of placing this diverse space that is meant to welcome big numbers of people mainly “Mssafries/Pilgrims” the long building needed a more efficient circulation so that people wouldn’t get lost. The anomalies were more connected to the problems that the Kasba might be facing if it interpreted the same old ways of usage and technics. Our idea was to solve these problems by breaking the sacred rules. As in Fortress Kasba, it can be seen that the first floor is totally opened and accessible; which is the total opposite of what privacy in these structures required, when the sole purpose of building a Kasba was for protection against all kind of enemies; by including big entrances “Arches”, longer windows, and public programs in the first floor. The anomalies also covered the user’s movement between the compartment and the different programs, solving some delicate matter like separation of males and females and supporting this by making accesses more clear and functional. On its last stages, the project framework concerning the existing the structure, the restoration, and sometimes the demolishing was heavily used to make some decisions as fast as possible.

“Our plans miscarry because they have no aim. When a man does not know what harbor he is making for, no wind is the right wind.” SENECA

The Muide Harbor project was one of the biggest urban interventions I have personally ever worked on, not only in the sense of its size but also in terms of its complexity. The first class gave us what we need to know about the framework of the class, what the promoters were expecting and how, it also made it clear that the work had to be divided between teams, 6 teams to be precise, which will be dealing with different subjects and solve different problems. As challenging as it sounds these groups subjects were nothing compared to my team’s task, we were picked to be the urban team, AKA the management team, meaning that in addition to our interventions we had to coordinate the other six teams. 16


The site as it can be seen in the map consisted of 3 existing hangers and a stretching concrete platform. the first task was to brainstorm a dividing method between the teams deppending on their themes and visions, how they are imagining their project will work, what kind of natural resources or infrastructure will they need near them and if they have another team in mind to collaborate with. On the other hand, we had to think also about teams like the mobility one that required information and data about the context of the site inside the city of Gent. On the geographical level the Water team asked obviously for an access to the docks infrastructure and to use the water surface in the harbor which proved to be tricky as some teams didn’t agree in the beginning and chose to let the water surface a free zone with no transportation and no intervention because of its shallow water and its pollution, but as the project was not limited by a budget or a realistic framework a purification project was suggested in a collaboration between the nature team who will produce vegetable using floating aquaponics and the water team who suggested a temporary dam that would evolve to cover more surface in different fazes to clean the basin by the end 2030. All of this and more is what the first of chapter of the work has witnessed with clashes, meeting, arguments, and decisions and it was our duty as the urban team to make sure that those decisions are being respected.

17


Here in this scheme is the final draft of a semester-long management process with the teams internal, external, direct and indirect connections, and some times even some future or possible connections that some representatives had in mind, the diagram shows the systematic bond that some structures have with each other which translated int services and contributions on the site. Each one of the programs was also required in contributing on 3 levels, the urban one to connect their agenda to the city vision, the local one by contributing the Heaven (which stand for dock/harbor in Dutch) complex with an extra value in a plug-in system either by getting connected to another teams program or by serving the site as a whole , the last level was the central scale after we suggested a tower that would merge the infrastructure of most of the

“People tend to ignore the design that ignores them, their special experience should only be taken into consideration after they develop feelings for it.�

FRANK CHIMERO

Despite the name of the class, the Design research studio was nothing like your normal project module. Things in Bauhaus were different than usual as some classes including the D.B.R required students to take additional courses with them, including computations, and theory courses, we were lucky enough to have coherent electives that were deeply involved in the studio schedule as most of the task were done in coordination with the other teacher of the other lectures too, including a theory seminar about special analysis where we received the basics about user experience and methods of space testing, and computation design that concentrated on giving us as much insight about Dynamo, and Virtual Reality. 24


As initial concept The staircase to the platforms is the only given constant. We have understood it as the centre of our design. Hence the idea of the semicircle, defined by its centre, the staircase. Our goal is a clear language of form and ground plan structure. Basically, the design is and the central hall. The outer latch contains all the functions, with the commercial functions taking the best seats in relation to the entrances. It was also important for us to formally highlight functions that are important for the smooth running of the station. These include toilets, lockers and the DB-Info.

After the first Virtual Reality experience the data we were able to assemble from the user feedback, isovist analyses, the metric betweenes analyses, and the daylight analyses followed by the professional feedback given by a DB architect that tackled more technical and financial topic that we were totally blind about, which made us reconsider the materials used, the structure proposed and some minor issues about security. It was clear that some changes had to be done on the plans, and program as a whole. 25

On the computation part, a dynamo script was used to determine the visibility of certain objects or surfaces on a specific path. This can be used, for example, to determine how well so compartments can be seen when you enter the station building this template proved to be very useful as it helped us in different cases without the need of redoing it. It is also good to mention that the room and columns were parametrically made to be responsive to the change of the design when it comes to its arrangement and size all thanks to Grasshopper.

After the change andstarting from the semicircle, we defined a second entrance and shifted both in the direction of the potential streams of visitors. This resulted in the extension of the areas on the ground floor. Important uses become part of the inner facade in order to be easily visible. In addition, the commercial uses are now better placed in relation to the entrances. In order to keep the ground floor free for shops and service, we decided on an upper floor, which accommodates the required office space and offers rentable. The number of external supports was reduced and the roof now reacts to the entrances.

metric betweenes analyses

In response to criticism from the DB employee, we have decided to reduce the number of columns to a tolerable level. Furthermore, the size of the external openings was adapted to the lighting requirements. The most important change, however, took place above the entrances. Here we decided to shape the roof into a high point. On the waiting hall. level The results of the wayfinding analysis led to the conclusion 27

VR

The new division of functions made it possible to generate larger areas for functions such as toilets, lockers and the station mission and the two new entrances allowed us to optimize the position of the bookstore and the bakery, so now, when entering the station building, the visitor walks past one of the commercial functions and towards the other. This is our response to the needs of DB, which as a company seeking to maximise its profit wants to create the most attractive rental space possible. In addition, the construction of an upper floor enabled us to generate additional office rental space. A kiosk was also included in the space programme in order to balance the program.

After a 2 month experience back in Agadir-Morocco, I was able to join a small firm in Bursa where I worked while on my last year of my bachelor under the supervision of Mr.Salih Beri who taught me so much, and who was kind enough to take me with him to his business meetings, which made me aware of a hidden part of the field that I have never experienced before, Marketing.

Of all of my site experience “The Panoramic museum 1326 Of Bursa� was the biggest and most complicated I was able to develop different kind of skills from my work with Al Bunian back in Tiznit Morocco on a small mosque and a warehouse project, Arikan architecture, on the other hand, opened my eyes to how an international firm works with projects like the museum and the Carsamba Hospital. where most of my work consisted of drafting and accompanying the site manager from time to time.

Getting the opportunity to receive an education from 4 different schools played a major role in making me adapt easily on their way of work and develop my own set academic skills that fruitfully resulted in me publishing some of my research with the support of my tutors of course. As a topic post-colonial thoughts and architecture was my field of work.

While some academic works had my direct contribution some more pedagogic than technical. during my master thesis and my exchange in France I had the chance to meet amazing scholars who worked on very greasy topics that picked my interest, Socio-economic integration, urban segregation, and co-existing to name a few, were my main focus for some times that is why I willingly offered my time and effort to help in developing these researches by translating materials, arranging bibliographies and some times even reaching contacts

During one semester was able to develop two different pieces of research about two different case studies, one in Casablanca-Morocco, and the other in Beirut-Lebanon in parallel with my master thesis at KuLeuven. In this period I have learned so much about a specific period of time that I have never imagined, and as it was one of my first jumps into social sciences it made more clear for me to reconsider an academic career as an option in the future perhaps.

Gent St Pieters station will need to be able to give a good response to the flood of people that will be displaced in the future years because of climate change. Not only with good infrastructures, but also focusing on the interactions between people and encouraging integration. Escaping from floods or evil dictators, in the pursuit of peace and a new place to rebuild their lives, refugees arrive at Gent St Pieters station, and for 2 or 3 days they are accommodated in the station while they find out which will be their next destination in their long journey. As much as it sounds utopic and very far away this topic addressed in this workshop can already be sensed today, it was very refreshing to meet people who share the same vision and who were not afraid of handling the real problems.

During a two weeks program in Boza-Brussels I have participated in a summer school organized by A+Architecture in Belgium in cooperation with miss Vigano one of the most famous pioneers of Italian contemporary urbanism, a heavy scholar, and a debater, with here we worked during the period of the program very closely to map and reimagine a future for the countryside of Gent a small village by the name Imo has been chosen and from there a series of lectures, debates, and ateliers started all under the frame of Vertical city VS horizontal City. The proposal at the end was a full model of the industrial zone extensions and the future plans for the agriculture fields that existed there, subjects like pollution, water, infrastructures, policies, and local opinion had to be tackled very delicately.
