A guide is usually a manual. It instructs people how to handle operations that are necessary to comply a task. The higher the comfort of handling, the more successful the guide: the best instructions are the ones that can be followed most easily. A guide is most rewarding if it is most comfortable. However, the Europan Guide to Accompany Ideas into Implementation is of a different nature. It can neither be based on applying proven recipes nor on imitating good practices. The way to handle it is turned upside down. It promotes alertness instead of comfort. Instead of giving instructions to follow, it is a toolkit that invites for potential actions to be taken, presuming that people adopt a special attitude: to use the guide successfully –i.e. to make the guide work– means to improvise with the content, to creatively apply it each time in a specific way: the guide has to be performed in order to work.

differentiated indications, which depend on the different issues asked by the cities that want to take the courageous and creative path of urban regeneration. In Europan’s vision, implementation is a crucial “pedagogical” asset, able to ground the winning projects. The guide should therefore contribute to the necessary acculturation and empowerment of all involved actors, boosting their capacity to be agents of transformation. Performing the guide successfully requires, on one hand, a respective screenplay with an ambitious agenda, and on the other, skilful and enthusiastic performers, who are ready to get engaged.

Instead of giving instructions to follow, the guide is a toolkit that invites for potential actions to be taken This guide does not propose pre-assembled models or procedures. Rather, it is an open source product that is enriched by the experiences and skills of its users, adapting to the different social, economic and institutional contexts. It proposes a “what if ” model, suggesting protocols that give E13-ZAGREB (HR) - SEE PROJECT P.64

Ambitious agenda for today and tomorrow… A range of contemporary conditions challenges the familiar agendas of architecture, urban design/planning and landscape architecture as material design practices that address our environment. Think of the increasing conflicts on resources, the perturbing rise of ecological disasters, the sharpening development of economic polarization, the continuous rise of social imbalance, exclusion and marginalization, the sense of abandonment of the non-metropolitan population, or the uneven accessibility to housing, work, education and public services. The pervasive presence of human activities since the industrial revolution has been accelerating territorial, social and climate changes, generating an enormous human footprint on the planet, a steady erosion of resources. It has diminished the capacity of urban settlements to entertain ecological and productive relationships with rural land; it has sedated the productive and generative capacity of local manufacturing; and it has neglected the regenerative value of taking care of places in the sense of maintaining and fostering circular processes. All these examples reflect a fundamental, global crisis that operates on multiple scales. Within this crisis, global forces directly affect local and regional conditions, and vice versa, establishing a multi-layered interface of multi-scalar influences. Each single location, no matter how small, has become a “hybrid set”, disposing of comprehensive, complex, sometimes conflictual narratives. In order to be able to offer a future beyond the actual crisis, these narratives, as well as the way they intermingle, have to be carefully discovered and sensitively addressed. Their “multi-dimensionality” unsettles familiar patterns of space, such as city/countryside, place/territory, urban/rural, global/local, public/private, visible/invisible, etc., manifesting a dimensional depth, all at once social, cultural, ecological, physical, and (geo-)political. Sharing and celebrating the opportunity of unfamiliarity through the concept of a collective project is therefore the basic principle for all actors who believe in the curative power of architecture, urban design and landscape architecture. Innovative and experimental approaches are inevitable. Nevertheless, they can only satisfyingly address such crisis if they animate an extended field of disciplines through their very design, crossing natural sciences with humanities and even judiciaries, so as to trigger a shared awareness about the imperative of the collective project, growing out of the disciplinary field. This notion of collective project or shared project is operative in Europan. Architecture, urban design, and landscape architecture gain their full curative potential exactly through releasing a comprehensive co-production of transformations regarding our living environment: territorial and infrastructural authorities, politicians, developers, as well as other professions and all kinds of affected users become co-authors of a collective project, inasmuch as they are ready to share the concerns about the

necessity to act in an unfamiliar way in order to act successfully. Such an ambitious agenda requires a shared commitment, as all involved actors embrace the societal responsibilities of taking care about the city. Their shared commitment provides a powerful ground to achieve equitable access for all to goods and general interest services, whether it is simply affordable housing, transport infrastructure, access to health services, education or culture, or even employment. The project of comprehensive co-production is therefore one of the keys for an inclusive and ecological city: the common ground of shared commitment finally encourages public spaces open to otherness; and at the same time, its shared operation will considerably improve the city’s metabolism.

E13-GOUSSAINVILLE (FR) - SEE PROJECT P.32

Engaged actors from an extended disciplinary field Concerning the ambition to match the agenda, all involved actors share the passion to reconsider their everyday practices. They are ready to get proactively involved in a collective project that responds to the most urgent question of our times: How to contribute to the cure of the symptoms of the present crises in order to make a worthy future happen?

Europan is based on a figure of action demanding a collective “re-formation” of thinking and acting performed by a spectrum of engaged actors Europan’s ambitious agenda is about giving rightfully contextualized responses to this most urgent question by means of the collective project that grows out of the disciplinary field of architecture, urban and landscape design. This response is based on a figure of action demanding a collective “re-formation” of thinking and acting performed by a spectrum of engaged actors, who are the guide’s main addresses. The guide shall therefore…

…encourage young professionals of architecture, urban and landscape design to have them understand that their contributions are concrete site-related translations of the aforementioned agenda, but that they can only substantially contribute to it if they integrate the conceptualization of a process that “manufactures” the project’s unfolding in the site-related realities after the competition phase, aiming to establish a durable process that is able to take care of the inclusive city. Winning ideas need to intensify their engagement with the site. …instruct site managers and developers, who are responsible for the post-competition phase about skills and modes to successfully “design” the transition from competition to implementation, understanding the idea of feasibility as a progressive step-by-step procedure, the progression mode of which introduces a strategic and tactical bandwidth that goes beyond the classic stage set of masterplan implementations or architectural realizations, allowing the competition site to play a public role for the rest of the city. Winning ideas are not standard, they are game changers; implementation needs to be imagined as we go along.

…animate Europan’s National and European structures to extend their working field: taking care of Europan’s agenda requires to go beyond the organization of the competition phase, providing a platform for Europan’s figure of action. As they take the role of great conductors for the competition phase, they have to take the role of successful intermediary of the winning ideas in the transitional phase, taking them from the competition stage to the implementation process: e.g. godfathers who take care of the project and support the designers in the various phases, or commissions, responsible for ensuring and perpetuating the quality of the projects. Winning ideas need mentors to conduct game-changing discussions. …and finally, provide a substantial insight to all involved actors: the capacity to imagine how the arrival of ideas –sometimes coming from far away– can be successfully translated to a local process of collaborative realization, involving all the concerned actors in synergy with one another, and not in conflict. Winning ideas need the active collaboration of everyone.

The collective project as an urbanarchitectural project What would be the most appropriate operative frame for the aforementioned material practices and actors? Without a doubt, the concept developed by Europan of the urbanarchitectural project might be the most accurate format. It inscribes not only the interweaving of scales, relations and iterability right into the heart of the architectural project, but also the concerns and expertise of a multi-layered approach, which opens up the field of architecture to reflect the multidimensional condition of the crises. Thus, architecture becomes an intrinsic part of the urban project, including the design of public space, landscapes, territories and infrastructures. At the same time, it introduces the development in time (process) and the political, social, cultural, environmental discourses as its main ingredients.

Architecture becomes an intrinsic part of the urban project, including the design of public space, landscapes, territories and infrastructures Even if each single task of the urban-architectural project is in itself multi-scalar, its contextual framework and scale do vary. They constitute a diversity of possible responses with different “intervention spheres”, inducing specific operations and configurations of actors, which can be meaningfully grouped according to three spectrums of scales: S-Scale: Mission of Impact Europan projects on/for small sites always have the mission to unfold larger effects on the urban scale. For that matter, the design can address any kind of content, figure or strategy, provided it transforms the project’s S-scale into a comprehensive interaction manoeuvre. M to L-Scale: Mission of Articulation Europan projects on medium and large sites always have the mission to respond to the site’s specific logic and narrative with a concept that is able to articulate the visionary link between the site and its surrounding environment – a double addedvalue, both for the site and its adjoining urban context. XL-Scale: Mission of the Translocal Europan projects on extra-large sites always have the mission to consider the co-evolutions of cultural, ecological, infrastructural and geopolitical stakes on a large scale of a

territory, translating them into an agenda that makes them concretely operate, but at the same time takes advantage of their potential ecological synergies – simultaneously local and territorial (e.g. diverse punctual interventions that operate in multiple and contextualized ways).

The mutual infection of idea and implementation makes Europan projects act on unconventional levels. A crucial component is therefore the measurement of the impacts of the transformations produced in the course of implementation. Measuring these new impacts is highly important, as they allow us to understand and reveal the project’s idea about the specific performance of the development process. Europan’s concept of implementation anchors the “making of reality” in the explorative power of ideas: an idea is an idea only if it is in the state of becoming, if it is linked to the implementation process. Therefore, Europan’s actors have to face another unique figure of action: “Implementation begins with the preparation of the competition”.

E13-MOLFETTA (IT) - SEE PROJECT P.79

The productive paradox as a conceptual potential The empowered urban-architectural project becomes a tool in the hands of the ones included, empowering project actors willing to instigate such collective project. Therefore, Europan has, with full awareness, established a paradox: the combination of a “competition of ideas” with the “implementation process”. In the history of the architectural competition these two spheres have so far been strictly separated to avoid mutual contamination: the “pure” competition of ideas reinforces the myth of the idea as a phenomenon that is free, only if it is liberated from the burden of physical implementation. The “pure” competition of implementation, on the other hand, reinforces the myth of implementation as a limited sphere of routine competencies, the success of which is based on the experienced expertise of actors and instruments. Europan, on the contrary, promotes the mutual infection of idea and implementation in order to increase the competencies of the urban-architectural project and its actors. The shortcut between the sphere of ideas and the one of implementations radically transforms the concept of the idea: it becomes the driving force of a process that extends to the sphere of the “real”, while including the idea as its intrinsic element.

An europan process extends to the sphere of the “real”, while including the idea as its intrinsic element

The irreducible reciprocity between idea and implementation makes the urban-architectural project a collective project, able to meet Europan’s ambition. It introduces a critical amount of unfamiliarity, allowing new ways of practicing, improbable proximities between project actors, and intimate relations between project and process. In addition, it enables extended insights about the idea of implementation itself, operating in the realm of the real far beyond its mere physical manifestation. If idea and implementation are an inseparable couple, the transition from idea to implementation must be reconsidered. The stereotype figure of a huge gap between the end of the competition phase and the beginning of the implementation phase results from a wrong notion of separation between competition and implementation, ignoring the project process figure as one continuous vector of becoming. Successfully going ahead depends on a chain of synergies in time, starting with the preparation of the competition, and sometimes even before, when approaching possible Europan partners for an upcoming Europan session. Any kind of obstacles and hurdles might appear anytime during the continuous process of becoming. Yet, the awareness of the inseparable relationship between competition and implementation introduces the implementation process as a kind of iterative transition, immunizing Europan against the fatal and insuperable “mega gap” between competition and implementation. This “mega gap” is a myth based on the belief that Europan is primarily a competition. STILL: Europan is a platform of collaborative processes, operating with exciting project processes that range from the initial proposal of the site to manifold implementation stages. In order to match Europan’s agenda, the project design and the realization steps must intimately interweave, providing a synergetic triangle of context, idea and process: an incremental, time-oriented, tactical and flexible “master program” binding together idea and implementation as one synergetic operational agenda, which asks for a new vision of “making” the Europan project, going far beyond discrete and familiar development patterns such as masterplans. The guide invites the readers to perform the art of overcoming thresholds – any kind and anytime. In other words: Successfully performing the Europan Guide means sharing Europan’s ambition through celebrating, with all available means, the irreducible reciprocity of idea and implementation.

62 innovative processes of implementation from E2 to E14

Europan was created on a paradox that might be the reason for its longevity. It is first a competition between the urban and architectural scales, which aims to bring out talents capable of formalizing strong and creative ideas in response to contexts given by cities and in relation to a topic reflecting social, economic, cultural and environmental urban issues of European cities. It is therefore first –and we must not forget it– a procedure of labelling young talented designers –architects, landscapers, urban planners…– around innovative ideas. For the last 30 years, Europan has awarded approximately 1,600 teams, i.e. about 6.5% of the 25,000 teams that have submitted a project on 760 sites. This average of about 2 award-winning teams per site shows that in the same context, several alternative ideas may be relevant. These ideas are rewarded with prizes: €12,000 per winning team and €6,000 per runner-up, that is to say roughly 1 million euros of prize distributed per session. Many of these awards have led to the creation of new agencies and the development of new practices. Europan is therefore not a classic professional competition where one can expect ready-to-build projects. This is why the choice of projects is made considering the points of view of the cities carrying the strategy of transformation of the sites that they proposed to the competition; in the end, however, the selection of projects is made by independent and qualified juries of experts, to which the cities have delegated the choice. Europan also means the organisation, after the competition, of multiple implementation processes from the winning ideas. After an intermediate phase that allows the sites representatives to meet the award-winning teams, cities can choose one or more of the rewarded teams with whom they wish to continue developing a project. Negotiation processes are then developed; their quality and adaptation to each context are the conditions for the success of the implementation phase. The urban dimension of the contexts of course makes the challenge complex, as many factors can delay or even prevent the development of a process right after the competition or along the way: political changes, an economic crisis, the multiplicity of the soil property to be preserved or the need for land consolidation, soil decontamination, the resale of land, the multiplicity of actors involved, the arrival of new actors… But despite these difficulties, which vary from one site to the other, a significant part of the proposed sites is transformed thanks to several elements: the relevance of the winning ideas; the teams’ ability to be part of operational processes; the

urban partners’ ability to engage around innovative ideas for their territories and to manage adapted processes; and finally, the help of the Europan structures in process monitoring. In short, it is each time a question of creating the conditions of possibilities of a creative collaborative process –from idea to implementation–, which is able to overcome the obstacles that inevitably appear. These processes can take a long time (from 2 to 10 years), due to the fact that the Europan sites and projects have to deal with complexity, which makes them fairly rich, while also representing the challenges to address. This guide is published for the Europan 15 Forum of the Cities and the Juries, taking place in Innsbruck (AT), and where site representatives and jury members meet on the European scale and discuss a shortlist of projects considered the most interesting, just before the final decision by the juries. It is introduced by a manifesto written by the members of the Europan Scientific Committee, who highlight this paradox. The goal of the guide is to propose a path through the less visible part of the competitions: the implementations preoperational and operational phases. The guide is also trying to clarify the characteristics of each particular process in a synthetic way. 62 processes were chosen among others, along the thirty years of Europan. They illustrate both their diversity and their evolution (development from architectural projects to more complex urban projects.) They represent only one part of the whole, yet reflect the challenges that European cities are facing: — The fabrication of a diversified housing that is adapted to the evolution of lifestyles; — The design of urban and architectural projects that are able to adapt to changes in use; — Collaborative and inclusive processes involving, a.o., the inhabitants; — And, in the Anthropocene era, issues on the consumption of resources, on climate change, on the creation of urban fragments able to hybridize city and nature and to establish an urban metabolism. The third part of the guide presents a diversity of somewhat archetypal developments, trying to understand how, based on their scales, the processes have succeeded or not, and under what conditions they have produced real urban transformations.

2.1- INHABITING DIVERSITY

Since its creation, Europan has considered the issue of housing through its different topics and in resonance with the concerns of many project owners willing to propose contemporary housing that is conceived in an original way. This issue was first treated in its relationship with the evolution of lifestyles, with new housing practices and with the necessity for housing to be able to adapt to the diversity of the inhabitants. The first Europan sessions allowed to introduce creative processes between projects and implementation, which were genuine inventions for a multiplicity of spatial arrangements for housing. The implementation of a hostel for young workers in Mulhouse (FR) / E3 was the occasion to innovate on more flexible typologies, allowing the redistribution of space. The project also included services for the inhabitants, yet shared with the neighbourhood residents as well. This operation, as it let the neighbourhood residents use some of the hostel spaces, was a prelude to the current movement of co-living, a form of early chrono-architecture. The issue of housing also extended to the relationship between inside and outside, between intimacy and urbanity. A series of process-projects worked on the issue of urban blocks; for example, the floating platforms in Zaanstad (NL) / E2 asked the question of living along the water, with a density that was three times higher than the one initially considered by the city; the project was in fact proposing to build housing upon the Zaan river, which was considered as public space. The project produced architectural diversity through a brief that was getting implemented from a play on volumes in the thickness of the façades and the rooftop, but also through a shared culture in relation with the memory of the place. In Groningen (NL) / E3 a team of young cosmopolitan architects imagined icebergs, a sort of open and multifunctional urban blocks, that were possible with the dilatation of the base ground to insert spaces between city and proximity. The rehabilitation –quite classical at first glance– of an old urban block in the city centre of Saintes (FR) / E3 actually hid genuine innovations, like

the strengthening and densification of the built outer limit of the block while making it porous with crossing alleys, an old local reference. And yet, the intimacy of the houses with private garden that were built inside the blocks was preserved with walls built using the stones from the former buildings around. Here, the onsite re-use of demolition stones anticipated a practice that has nowadays become more usual. The integration, in the elaboration of the project, of collaborative processes involving multiple partners was first experimented for the implementation of a social block in GenĂ¨ve (CH) / E2. It is nowadays a common practice. The rewarded ideas are a basis for discussions on the site transformation with the different site actors, including the inhabitants. In La Bazana (ES) / E14, a village to revitalise in Extremadura, workshops on the rewarded ideas, proposing the ecological regeneration of the village, allowed the inhabitants, who were very much involved, to discuss with the different experts in ecology and economics. These discussions were the starter of an ambitious strategy in time and were led by both rewarded teams. It was also the case for a long 10-year process in Wien (AT) / E10, with the implementation of a neighbourhood of 1,000 new housing by a team of architects from Madrid. The original idea was to create a porous district around micro public spaces in form of an urban grid that allowed to contextualise the project. This idea was kept through the process of negotiated project, yet with some adaptations, and with all the local inhabitants involved in a creative and productive way. Thanks to the ideas of committed young professionals and bold project owners, Europan has â&#x20AC;&#x201C;since its creation and through experimental processesâ&#x20AC;&#x201C; continuously opened up avenues on how to inhabit the city, between individuality and collectiveness, between architectural strength and openness to change in time, between the mix of uses and the permanence of spaces, between formal projects and collaborative processes, in order to make these inhabited territories as lively as possible. This issue is still valid today. And even though Europan later on focused on other issues, each session has always tackled it as well from a constantly renewed questioning.

1- INHABITING DIVERSITY

1.a — multiple housing for new ways of living Leaving behind standardised housing to propose new ways of living is a constant issue in each Europan session. If the idea is to reconsider and diversify housing typologies, there is also a need to invent a new relationship between intimacy and urbanity.

An Urban Dream The project proposes a division where small canals transform six blocks into floating platforms, reinforced by semi-underground car parks. Shops are on ground floor and apartments above, accommodated on 5-storey –like the former industrial units–, all on the riverside. PRE-OPERATIONAL: The city approved the high density, but functional mix was abandoned to combine rented and owner-occupied flats. A plan defined the urban principles and architectural rules. A competition allowed to choose the developer. IMPLEMENTATION: The team supervised the development plan and built the base (car park and collective spaces), canals and public spaces, as well as four buildings. The boardwalk as a parade ground makes the Zaan accessible again to citizens, as an urban facility without direct connections with the collective spaces on the platforms. COMPETITION:

fluid public space opens to the multiplicity and diversity of urban flows; it generates an urban continuum in which different modes of transport are compatible and can coexist. The city council, emphasizing urban ecology, chose a more traditional approach with buildings erected along widened roads. PRE-OPERATIONAL: An innovative concept is actualized on the site: 2 broken lines of buildings create a fluid intermediary space, open to the city and called “icebergs”. OPERATIONAL: In May 2000, the construction starts with Iceberg 1 + 2 and lasts until December 2002; the courtyards and landscape are completed in June 2003. S333 included a wide variety of residential typologies. The first “iceberg” is more urban, with glass giving a more abstract appearance. The second consists of terraced housing, with more traditional materials, warm-coloured wood, and conveying a sense of materiality. All photos: © Jan Bitter

It is necessary to generate new urban centres in the outskirts with a different scale and quality. There are three layers: the lower is composed of different public or semi-public spaces; the intermediate level is a green roof mat of patio housing; and the upper level is designed as five small towers. PRE-OPERATIONAL: After the team worked on some aspects related to the implantation, sticking to the competition concept, a competition was engaged for developers, in which the team was actively involved. With the developer, the team started a new stage; it was, in short, an endless 6-year period full of vicissitudes trying to keep the project going, a very hard work due to the superimposition of opposite levels of information. OPERATIONAL: After being postponed several times and 10 years of preparation, the construction took place, including 115 rental patio houses/flats, 14 offices, 7 retails, a café, 1 laundry, a kinderplatz, a park, and parking lots in the basement.

PRE-OPERATIONAL: The team obtained a series of urban design commissions, including a feasibility study for a public parking silo, although the project did not go further. Nevertheless, a private developer willing to build a housing program near the town centre chose the team, who first reconstituted the building frontage on all the plots and changed the volumes in keeping with the typological variations and multiple typologies to generate diversity. OPERATIONAL: Due to the obligation to save €1.2 million, the external insulation system was abandoned and the façade treatment lowered with the use of render instead of brick for the collective housing buildings, some of the large apartments were converted to smaller, easier-to-sell units. © Alias

COMPETITION: The

site, located in Liesing, is exposed to a high degree of noise; the proposal therefore offers a condensed urban condition within a megastructure absorbing programmatic and contextual demands: a vertical city block and a horizontal landscape with patio housing, creating potentials for public and commercial programs. PRE-OPERATIONAL: The project consists of 100% housing. This programmatic constraint has ruled out the original idea of vertical layering: the idea of horizontal layering is introduced with different housing types that are juxtaposed (strips + carpet), whilst the competition proposal is maintained (promenade as a spatial organizer, system of public/semi-public spaces, housing mix/social mix, and architecture with a strong character). OPERATIONAL: Dealing with the XL-scale was not a problem; it was much more difficult to fulfil the promise of mixed uses. In the end, the critical minimum mix was achieved with maximum effort.

an innovative student housing in a plot between the river and the university campus, the project proposed to create a porosity between the inside and the outside. PRE-OPERATIONAL: The client showed the need to fit in some extra 40% rooms and to lower down the already tight budget, leading to a complex and elaborate tender process. A ‘total entrepreneur’ bid was launched afterwards, and since then the team played a ‘commentary role’, with very restricted decision-making authority, and a long chain of command that limited any fruitful contact with the client. OPERATIONAL: Assuming the urban conditions, the building gains autonomy and shapes its volume to adapt to surrounding views and sun, and to strengthen the bonds within the newly established community. Students share a flexible lounge and a self-managed ‘ultra-kitchen’, an experimental space conceived for the use and enjoyment of 116 students, a 24/24 sort of social sustainability condenser.

In order to better enjoy the environment with infrastructures and a mix of housing and activities, the project proposed a new organization and a work on several innovative housing typologies offering a diversity of lifestyles and intermediate spaces between housing and public spaces. PRE-OPERATIONAL: Due to land ownership, the city offered the team the design of a young workers centre. A consultation was organised. The program –80 beds, common areas and public facilities– was labelled an “experimental project”, allowing the creation of a mixed space. IMPLEMENTATION: The architecture operates like a filter, from privacy to sociability. Two buildings are positioned parallel to the street: the first, which is lower, accommodates the communal spaces and is open to the district; the second, of three floors, is set backwards and contains the living areas and communal spaces, associated with the residential function.

COMPETITION: The project introduces a three-layer block into the rationalist urban fabric: on the lower level, a car park and shopping complex, surrounded by housing and shops on the street; on the middle level, individual housing with winter gardens, accessible from a raised inner wood-clad courtyard; and above, inward-looking housing units open to the sky. PRE-OPERATIONAL: The surface areas of the different housing types allow for a wide variety of occupation. All units have a sheltered terrace. The courtyard has a large opening to the West. During the design process, the size of the block was increased to allow more housing units, but also to create a more spacious courtyard. OPERATIONAL: The first two levels of the building comprise dark brick and the floors situated above are elaborated in glass. The subtle distinctions in the material build up tension and give the building a new level of significance.

They are defined either by rows of trees forming Green Frames or by the built frames of different housing structures. Landscape-architecture encloses architecture and vice versa. PRE-OPERATIONAL: The studies involved a change to the proposed building types in order to meet marketing criteria and the demand for a balanced social fabric. The “green frames” from the competition were translated into an “arboretum” concept with a distinctive range of tree species for the different building plots, providing a vivid variety of changing colours and moods along with increased urban biodiversity. After these adjustments, a development plan for the first construction stage with 9 building plots was produced. OPERATIONAL: The team built 3 blocks among these 9 ones, using three different building/green typologies to define the public space.

block’s permeability is created by the introduction of three buildings of a hybrid type, penetrating right at the heart of the block and housing a range of activities. One of them –temporary student housing– preserves the localities’ ambiguity and openness, typical of courtyard buildings. It extends into the block, generating a series of interlinked courtyard spaces leading to the street. PRE-OPERATIONAL: Old buildings are replaced by new ones. Parts of the block are bought in 1995 and 1999, locals oppose the project for some time, but are finally rejected by courts. OPERATIONAL: The inauguration in 1998 coincided with the start of the external development, with the courtyard completed in October 2001.

PRE-OPERATIONAL: The team worked with several actors to sharpen their ideas and concepts. A unique developer realized the project, divided into three smaller parts. The team was invited to build one part of the project, and to contribute to the elaboration of the brief for the others and of the rules on the configuration of the whole project, the garden courtyard, the rooftop route, and several main common spaces. OPERATIONAL: The team built 171 housing + a geriatric day centre. Some common spaces are dedicated to support the small community of the building and others, to offer possibilities to inhabitants of the whole project.

Long narrow transversal passages extend the public space into the interior providing access to new houses, retaining the nature of the main block while increasing density. PRE-OPERATIONAL: A housing developer (SEMIS) did the procedure of plot-by-plot negotiation with a prolonged land acquisition process (5 years). The urban scheme and studies were pursued despite these uncertainties, integrating the preservation of the exact route of the existing alleys to rebuild the old stone walls and roofs for the houses. OPERATIONAL: 29 demolition- and 11 building-permits were required. In 2002 the restoration of the houses began on the edge of the block. The alley walls were built using stones from the demolition and the houses with patio were built above. The inhabitants appreciated the revitalization of this district on the edge of the centre.

PRE-OPERATIONAL: During the implementation process, and after several meetings with the different actors, it was decided to reorient the urban strategy: “prevention rather than cure”, not oriented towards the elderly people anymore, but rather to the younger generations that can settle in the city. The architects therefore developed five projects in order to attract young people from other cities and provide new facilities to local youth preventing them from leaving Selb.

OPERATIONAL: The Daycare Centre completes the last void of a heterogeneous urban façade placed on a sloping ground floor. A flexible strip-system allows organising programs in specialised strips: vertical connections, playgrounds, installations, management, greenhouse and storage. The Youth Hostel and Youth Club are placed in the inner city between two small public parks, extending towards an inner courtyard as a semi-public space that establishes a fluent connection between the building and urban space. A flexible stripsystem allows organizing programs in strips with varied scales: public and private uses, installations, vertical connections… The housing program is composed of 25 apartments for young families with a communal room and a biomass powerplant, which will provide energy to the district at the heart of the city. This last project reinforces the proposal of preventive acupuncture as a solution to reactivate the shrinking city.

Both projects developed a strategy of sustainable growth around an ecological production cooperative. PRE-OPERATIONAL: It was decided to make both teams work together and start with two workshops with the inhabitants. They helped to make the inhabitants aware that they had exceptional resources: architectural heritage of the village, natural heritage (fertile farmland, know-how, etc.)… Also, the beginnings can be initiated by inhabitants initiatives: the creation of a cooperative; a transition to new farming methods; the maintenance of roads and waterways; the creation of a compost workshop; possibility to plant live / productive fences, etc. During the second workshop agricultural experts and professionals presented their experience and economic strategy in the cooperative field. The next step will be an urban feasibility study – rural masterplan.

COMPETITION: The

Garden>Courtyardf project outlined the development of 10 hectares of residential fabric in a suburban area in the city of Wien. A grid of gardens structures the area, acting as a division of land, whilst also acting as urban objects. It is possible to build around the gardens but not inside them. Building lands are concentrated on the North of each garden, providing a greater opening towards South. These extrovert plots are colonized by different parties: the public body, private developers, cooperatives, individuals… A building is initially assigned on every garden plot. The neighbourhood gradually densifies heterogeneously, constantly adopting the needs of the population.

PRE-OPERATIONAL: After the competition, a draft for the urban planning of the area is produced. It is a collective pattern for individual interpretations, a matrix of gardens that organizes the area, and can be built around, but not within. Once the support was secured, the project developed to investigate the connections that it could produce, redefining the configuration of free space. A collective space that is reprogrammable over time, and with the capacity of appropriation, was put into place. The result is a porous fabric, in terms not only of low-carbon footprint, but also of flexibility in the construction and continuing process: a liquid that adapts to the changing needs of society. The story is guided by the real characters that have taken part in it, including the team’s local partners, experts in mobility, landscaping, energy and sociology, as well as the representatives of the neighbourhood, the soil promoters and the office of the Wien City Council, all of them participating in the design process. OPERATIONAL: After a 5-year long collaborative planning process, the “Wildgarten” project was definitively passed by the Wien City Council as a 10ha masterplan (approximately 1,000 housing units) for the suburban zone. The soil owner (ARE) intends to begin the development of the architecture projects, with the winning team project of 82 housing in 11 different buildings. PARTICIPATIVE WORKSHOPS

PARTICIPATION AND STRATEGY

projects were rewarded on the site of an abandoned village located at the end of the airplane tracks of the Charles de Gaulle airport: “Base Vie” (winner), “Des racines et des ailes” (runner-up), and “Vieux pays, nouvelles étapes” (special mention) PRE-OPERATIONAL: The 3 projects present common ideas: participation with the inhabitants; development of the patrimonial value; the relation with the river Croult, going through the village. The agglomeration gave a contract to the 3 teams (which gathered in an association named “Yacinthe”) for an urban and programmatic feasibility study, with a participative diagnosis, programmatic scenarios and economic evaluation. Programmatic orientations have re-emerged from the work with the inhabitants: crafts, participatory building site, agriculture, cultural value of the village, lodging of leisure. OPERATIONAL: The masterplan is validated. “Yacinthe” now helps communities to take the project over and organize the operational phase, which will be open after the completion of some temporary improvements.

2- ADAPTABLE SPACES FOR NEW USES 40

Historically, architecture and the urban project have been caught in a contradictory double logic of time. The logic of having to answer, at one given moment, to an established program prescribing one functionality for the spaces at the moment of the design; and on the contrary, the logic that says that, in most cases, spaces last beyond their first use and have to be able to adapt to changes in use. Urban authorities and promoters know this problem too well. And if they own the places, they have to invest in rehabilitation programs that can be heavy. These metamorphoses of the already-built are often set between two extremes: either demolish & rebuild (make a tabula rasa in order to build a new project), or preserve the building structure and apply some changes on secondary works (like with many buildings of the industrial “heritage”). Today, the transformation of practices has accelerated after the one of lifestyles and of urban practices at the age of new technologies. But another issue has appeared, linked to a sustainable vision of the city: the issue of chrono-urbanism, according to which the capacity of a place or of a building to be used more intensively than for its sole basic use allows to save spaces and resources. Europan is confronted to this request from the cities, to such extent that the topic for a recent Europan session was “Adaptable Cities”, with sites having to integrate new practices. Contrary to “functionalism” the ideal Adaptable City is able to “deal with time” and is so “malleable” that it can absorb fast changes in programs and practices – what Rem Koolhaas calls the “programmatic instability” that is characteristic of our times. A first attitude of designers is techno-architectural; it takes inspiration from the capacity of many industrial buildings to change within their program through constructive structures allowing changes in use. This is the case of the rewarded project in Amsterdam Sluisbuurt (NL) / E14, which proposes towers where the poles/beams structure gives way to modes of organization of space that are very diversified and variable in time. The pre-operational study for a first building to accommodate services (which are not clearly defined yet) makes it possible to concretely verify the rewarded idea.

The sites can also be large wastelands with partial or obsolete use, with strong marks of a past to consider for future projects. These wastelands are either fairly “traditional” –barracks or industrial halls– or more in tune with the evolution of urban practices, such as those underground parking lots under squares of the city centre of Madrid (ES) / E14; new uses are needed there as the parking lots will soon be obsolete. It also concerns shopping centres to develop and above all to reintegrate into a more urban logic, as is the case in the project in Wien (AT) / E13. These adaptations can concern large autonomous functionalist entities, which today are inadequate and often isolated, just like the university campuses of the 1960-1980s in the outskirts of a city. In Besançon (FR) / E14, the question asked to participants was first to amplify the use of clusters combining teaching-research and experimental production sites. The winning team, mixing architects and landscapers, worked on the development of the campus on several scales: the one of the territory, by opening it up, with important reconnections to its environment and improved accessibility; the urbanarchitectural scale, to transform a university subdivision into a set of spaces articulated around strong landscape lines and public spaces connecting old and new buildings, and allowing a better relationship between the complementary uses of the cluster, while implanting spaces of urban life; and finally, the architectural scale, with future competitions for certain types of buildings, also taking time into account. Creating areas for service, leisure or rest was the basis of the request made by the city of Zagreb (HR) / E13 for a16 km. strip along the Sava River. The Spanish winning team proposed an ephemeral and reversible arrangement that can be set up on this very large flood area, on each side of the channelled river, and which has no other use today than to be a reserve during floods. The project includes removable structures with programs such as a cinema, restaurants, or bathing facilities along the water. Thanks to these inventive devices that can be stored and used according to configurations adapted to the different appropriations over time, the inhabitants can now regain this gigantic and rather “infertile” place.

2- ADAPTABLE SPACES FOR NEW USES

2.a — built structures for evolving uses One issue in the design of projects working with the existing is to imagine urban and architectural structures that, contrary to functionalist zoning, are able to adapt to evolving uses in time and to the “programmatic instability” that is characteristic of our times.

The idea is to use the empty spaces, and not the buildings, to define the urban structure and to connect the voids through a clear, yet flexible grid. PRE-OPERATIONAL: To give an answer on the quality and definition of the open space related to production, the submitted a revised masterplan proposal on LINZteam (AT) a limited area with aMJ276 more detailed elaboration, including an open space concept, a ROCK THE BLOCK ! traffic concept from the traffic planning department, and a typological study of the productive block. At the moment, the team is waiting for a commission to produce a guidelines brochure. After that, the development of the land-use plan is supposed to last about one year. The goal is to start the building planning of the first phase of the masterplan in June 2020.

NEW REGIONAL HUB The Danube river, the railway and the A7 highway define the Linz transport and economical backbone and together with Landstrasse/ Wienerstrasse determine its forma urbis. Positioned south of the tracks of the central station and next to Wienerstrasse and the tram station, the project site benefits from a high level of accessibility able to turn it into a new centrality at the regional level.

After the railway the street looses its character of urban backbone becoming an important axis for the transport system. The project provides a new large square “Wienerplatz” at the intersection of Wienerstrasse and Unionstrasse, fostering a new image for the entire southern part of Linz.

CITY OF GRIDS – CITY OF SQUARE The forma urbis of Linz is based on the organisational system of the grid. Within this system, each pattern finds its centre into an open space both a square or a park. The project proposes a similar morphological system, through the definition of a grid, connected with the surrounding tissues, and a large park “Unionpark” that works as its centre.

The buildings in the southern zone are configured so as to create a continuous facade along Wienerstrasse, articulated at the perpendicular streets through a soft rotation of the fronts in order to create larger walking paths and meeting points. The southern building is directly connected with the new “Wienerplatz” that guides its morphological articulation and programs. The techno-hub, positioned in the core of the southern zone, in configured as a closed block with a central courtyard.

A1 - SITE DEFINITION The project aims to foster the process of transformation that have seen in the last decades the traditionally industrial city of Linz transformed into an innovative town in the productive and cultural sectors. The gradual conversion of the industrial heritage is the main tool to foster this process and the area of investigation represents the cornerstone of this approach. The whole territory has a size of 110.000 m2 differentiated in: the northern part (1+2 project site with 36.000 m2); the southern part (3) used by ÖBB’s Technical Service for maintaining and updating railway carriages and equipment. The project site can be divided in: the northern zone (1) occupied by several workshop buildings positioned along the tracks; the southern zone (2) that today is widely cleared.

The first is configured as an office cluster with buildings morphologically articulated through courtyards and towers in order to build a relation with the northern tertiary under district. The second walking canopies scenario creates a mixed uses complex through a system of open blocks that guarantee a high level of permeability between the courtyards.

interactions between the surrounding urban situations. The transition between the project site and the railway and the southern industrial site is mediated through a linear park that will guarantee the visual and acoustic protection of the site from the railway and the creation of a green corridor connecting Andreas-Hofer neighbourhood and the St. Barbara cemetery. The preservation and the adaptive reuse of the sheds displaced perpendicularly to Unionstrasse allow the definition of a frame between different development’s stages. Unionstrasse and Wienerstrasse will be completely redesigned to facilitate the pedestrian crossing, proposing large public spaces that will provide new services and facilities for the surrounding neighbourhoods.

B1 - CONNECTIONS The project proposes the creation of a vibrant productive neighbourhood, which will act as a physical communicator, as the future North-South urban link. The urban strategy proposed is based on the revitalization of the Wienerstrasse under passage and three new connections between the central station and the strategic site that will be phased along with the project: a new bridge will connect the two side of the railway towards the north; two underground passages will link the site with the middle level of the station. Combining high accessibility with a productive mix of uses in dialogue with the station’s potential will multiply the site’s urban role. The main vehicular accessibility is maintained from the Wienerstrasse; a new junction will be installed in the crossing of Wienerstrasse and the existing road close to the doctor house. This internal road is the backbone of the project, serving also as an entrance to the TS Werk and as an emergency access; it defines the different areas of the site during its the different phases through a series of perpendicular roads.

C1 - PRODUCTIVE BUILDINGS A new framework plan will provide the basis to start an urban transformation in which the site will keep the potential to offer spaces for work within the city, for new industries as well as for other forms of industrial production. Instead of trying to foreseen the possible future program, the project wants to provide the maximum diversity in the productive space, allowing multiple and varied uses within the neighbourhood: wide covered surfaces for industry 4.0, commerce and storage; smaller spaces for start-up, creative industries or 0 Km retails; large renewed industrial shed for co-working or artistic related production; open air production spaces for new types of artisans or farmers; as well as more traditional offices for different scale companies.

A2 - THE ADAPTIVE REUSE OF THE INDUSTRIAL AREA The opportunity to reuse obsolete facilities in the urban core supports sustainability and smart growth initiatives. The project proposes the adaptive reuse of the sheds displaced perpendicularly to Unionstrasse as a way to define the character of the future community by providing a tangible link with the past and to benefit from the building’s position, which clearly defines the border between the northern and the southern part of the site that will follow different phasing. Due to the high density and the spatial configuration of the project, only the EBS building is preserved for the entire lifespan of the neighbourhood.

B2 - NOT A GRID BUT A TARTAN The project site is seen as the start of the new urban development south of the tracks. In this sense it is important to address different type of accessibility for different type of users. The grid – the organisational system used to define the forma urbis of the project – is therefore declined into a tartan: a pattern consisting of criss-crossing horizontal and vertical bands in multiple colours, each one representing a different mode of transportation and a different space. Bike paths, side walks, open air productive spaces, parks, renewed industrial buildings are inserted into a network system producing a very dynamic and diverse urban environment.

Project site - scenario

B3 - PLOTS The tartan partitions the site defining plots along with a web for transportation, aiming to create a straightforward process for their development. This strong organisational system, along with the definition of diverse plots, will guide the phasing of the project, allowing the control of the evolution of the neighbourhood over time.

adaptable through time: the small spaces, spread in the neighbourhood, are called the Tactical Spaces and are though to host different forms of spontaneous and informal practices; the park along Unionstrasse can be used for different type of sport activities, artistic events and fairs; the main square along Wienerstrasse is the main space for events, able to host large crowds and to foster a new image for the entire southern part of Linz (similar to what have happened with the Ars electronica centre in the north). C3 - URBAN LAYOUT The project wants to create an urban concentration effect, leaving some open spaces that mark particular zones of importance. Along with a series of small squares and gardens, the square along Wienerstrasse “Wienerplatz”, the linear park along the railway and the park along Unionstrasse “Unionpark” are the three large public spaces, relevant at the city scale. Around this spaces the project proposes to develop a high-density urban environment defined using the block typology together with high rises, combined to create a diverse urban environment.

winning project proposed a conceptual and flexible masterplan for the strategic site and a specific design for the project site. The overall program, half housing and half productive, was spread vertically, creating an interesting and vibrant mix. The masterplan could be shaped and adapted to the different needs and problems that would arise between different actors during the process. PRE-OPERATIONAL: After presenting the winning project to the actors involved, the team was invited to present their ideas in different events. With the client, a time schedule was discussed and some changes in size and program were decided. Finally, the team presented their ideas and process to the Inter-Sessions Forum in Brussels. OPERATIONAL: In April 2019 a first step was made by the municipality for a prestudy on the area involving a local firm. The local architect approached the winning team to collaborate but nothing has been decided yet.

winning project proposed a high-rise development around 2 main concepts. On one hand, a construction system able to evolve in time and adapt to future trends and the inhabitants’ needs; on the other, a high-rise urban model based on towers with a footprint clearly defined at street level working as a hub. PRE-OPERATIONAL: A workshop with the client and the city representatives followed by a first meeting in the client’s office led to a commission on the same site, yet with a different scale, to develop a feasibility study for a primary school and work places. The idea was to create a public building with an adaptable program in time depending on the evolution of the district needs, combining the main program (school and work places) with other community services. OPERATIONAL: The study was presented to the actors involved and to the city. It is now in the hands of the project management team, in order to study the possibilities to finance the project and move to a next step.

PRE-OPERATIONAL: The team was given two commissions for a public park and a football stadium within the competition area. The football stadium supports functions for the stadium activities and public service units. It ensures that the stadium is active not just for a few hours per week when occupied by the players and supporters, but also throughout the day as a public space. OPERATIONAL: The facades and surfaces of the stadium are made of perforated steel sheets. Opaque steel cladding and white polycarbonate creates a play of light and shadow. Inside, the stands are dotted with multi-coloured seats. It is possible to subdivide the building mass, which provides a high degree of flexibility for the distribution and juxtaposition of project elements.

RESEARCH: “Barcelona

Elàstic” Goal: to propose ideas for an innovative urban development of the area, one of the last unbuilt land, with a blurred profile but with a strategic position in the evolution of Barcelona. The research develops a strategy to achieve a city model compatible with the demands and citizen needs of the present but also with those of the city that is to come. The challenges for this new city will be to set an identity while promoting a socially and economically adaptable urbanism. Able to manage urban transformations in different contexts of actors and resources, taking into account the limitation of means and reducing energy consumption. ELÀSTIC is the proposal with which to produce a Mediterranean, complex, dense and socially active city capable of adapting over time with the minimum use of resources and being environmentally conscious. Method: the interest is to open fields of reflection and provide starting points from which to reformulate what has been studied. In this case, the variable of time, material consistency and resistance to change of the built have been taken as vector of analysis, a more chemical than physical approach has been chosen. In the first part, are studied the variables that set the structure of the city from the temporal perspective and consolidate it physically and culturally, both on the urban scale (orographic conditions, protection regulations, etc ...) and on the scale building. In the second part, a city production strategy is proposed based on the concept of adaptability. From the temporary condition, the variables that would allow the increase in urban resilience are explored. The objective is to question the logics from which the city is produced and to incorporate new cultural sensitivities based on metabolism, gender logics or care strategies. It has been decided to work exclusively from the section proposing the possibilities of typological innovation. The final work was presented. HABITABILITY QUALITY: THERMAL COMFORT

2) From closed to connected The isolation and closure of the site, which has persisted since its military days, is abandoned by the design of new connections, porosities, juxtapositions and overlapping functions. Only the importance of the walking distance from the central educational building, typical of the American ‘neighbourhood unit’ which is echoed in Vorfeld, is sustained and re-interpreted. These new connections positively affect the relationship between the neighbourhood and the city at the urban scale, and between the living and the production areas within the neighbourhood, thanks to new flexible urban programmes, shared spaces and new types of proximities. New cycle-pedestrian paths are designed in order enhance new links and green corridors from South to North. These paths also connect the historical bastions near to the site enhancing a new historical network. Moreover, the new cycle and pedestrian bridge at the north of Vorfeld, equidistant from the other passages at the north, becomes part of the new central multifunctional building, framing the central public space and enhancing new synergies between living, cultural and productive activities, creating Vorfeld’s new identity as an attractive urban hub. 2) Von geschlossen zu verbunden Die Isolierung und Geschlossenheit des Standorts, die seit seiner Militärzeit besteht, wird durch die Gestaltung neuer Ver-

bindungen, Durchlässe, Gegenüberstellungen und überlappenden Funktionen aufgegeben. Nur die Wichtigkeit der Fußnähe des zentralen Ausbildungsgebäudes, die für die amerikanischen „Wohngebietseinheiten“, die in Vorfeld widerhallen, typisch ist, wird aufrechterhalten und neu interpretiert. Diese neuen Verbindungen haben dank neuer, flexibler urbaner Programme und neuer Arten der Nachbarschaft eine positive Auswirkung auf die Beziehung zwischen dem Wohnviertel und der Innenstadt und zwischen den Wohn- und Produktionsstätten. Neue Fahrrad-Fußgängerwege werden entworfen, um neue Verbindungen und grüne Korridore von Süden nach Norden zu fördern. Diese Wege verbinden auch die historischen Bastionen in der Nähe des Viertels und fördern somit ein neues historisches Netzwerk. Darüber hinaus wird die neue Fahrrad- und Fußgängerbrücke im Norden Vorfelds, die einen gleichen Abstand zu den anderen nördlichen Passagen hat, ein Bestandteil der neuen, zentralen Mehrzweckstruktur, die den zentralen öffentlichen Raum umrahmt und neue Synergien zwischen den wohnlichen, kulturellen und produktiven Tätigkeiten fördert, und somit Vorfeld eine neue Identität als attraktives urbanes Zentrum verschafft.

3 winning teams: -1- BA 128 Résonances économes, winner. The project composes with the heritage (architectural and landscape), weaves with the context, the infrastructures, the activities and the existing buildings. It considers the collective and evolving framework, a network of perennial public spaces, and the threads (landscaping, buildings, roads…), adaptable according to land appropriations and investments. -2- Cycle-Sol-Air, runner-up. Working together with the context, keeping a large portion of the void generated by the runway, consider the history of the site to imagine its future. -3- B.A.S.E., runner-up. The project is a response to an unfavourable economic climate. Local consumption is indeed one of the keys to revitalize the territories. Instead of “Let’s buy more”, the project claims: “Let’s build better”. In response to urban sprawl, suburbanization and land take, the team suggest “equilibrium”, “short distribution channels”, and “re-use”.

COMPETITION

PRE-OPERATIONAL: After the competition the team had to directly compete as invited architects in a new competition against 15 major European firms; the Europan team won the competition and got a full contract, yet with a radically modified program. But some aspects of the open-space and mobility strategy survived. The result was a Rahmenplan mission, starting in 2017. Time scales radically changed during the process for geopolitical reasons (USA military not leaving; migrants crisis; city/region negotiations). The team had to deal with history, but also tried to deliver a trivial reading of the evolution of land value associated to mobility shifts. Now the transformation of B38 has been financed with â&#x201A;Ź52m at the horizon of 2030. What remained of the Europan proposal was the large-scale landscape structure and the relation between mobility upgrading and step-by-step land valorisation. The program of the second competition integrated two major commerce investors, which offered very difficult conditions. A major part of the mission was to negotiate with these two entities. OPERATIONAL: Open-space mission on the projectâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s main areas (approx. 7 ha) + some architectural studies or competition invitation.

goal was to restructure a specific place in Wien from an enclosed, private and commercial space to a more public, participatory space that is accessible and inviting to all participants. The winning project proposed sequential removal of build structures to form a public square and additional growth on the edges. PRE-OPERATIONAL: The city gave the winners a commission for an urban planning project – a strategic masterplan. The project is very close to the Europan proposal, although many changes are made regarding building sizes and design. The site was substantially extended, as a new stakeholder of the area wanted to be part of the strategic masterplan. Today, the team is working on land ownership, financing, and the role of different actors in the development. New architectural competitions will be organised for specific parts of the area and buildings. The team hopes to be involved in the next steps as well.

On a small central site, the city wanted to invest in knowledge-based companies started by young people living there. The winning proposal tried to find ways to transform existing buildings into new uses, so as to create cheap rentable spaces that benefits start-ups. PRE-OPERATIONAL: After a presentation to the university, the city officials and the client Narvikgården, there was a workshop to discuss the project and develop a plan about the existing buildings on site. The focus was to develop the competition proposal in different ways: an architectural evaluation of the existing buildings, sketches on some façades of the existing buildings, development of the site plan, information material that the client will use when meeting prospective tenants, a longer text about the proposal qualities, new renderings, and work on different aspects of the program for the site. The team had monthly Skype meetings with the client to discuss the project and how we developed it further. OPERATIONAL: The client needs to work with the city and find possible investors; the team is not involved in the process at the moment. COMPETITION:

COMPETITION: There

were 2 runners-up on the 6 central square sites to reconsider by transforming the existing underground parking lots with other uses. “Common Ground”, first by dissecting the anatomy of the parking typology, proposed a series of operations of addition and subtraction. Second, it introduced a network of re-productive spaces by mapping the civic tissue of the area. “On The Blue Summer Evenings” focuses on two main strategies. Greenscape – with the insertion of 10.000 sqm of new grass surface distributed across the six squares, connected by a new green promenade. Groundscape – relocating loading bays and productive facilities in the existing parking spaces underground, so as to foster a sense of community and people interaction in an urban centre.

SITE

COMPETITION - RUNNER-UP: ON THE BLUE SUMMER EVENINGS

COMPETITION - RUNNER-UP: COMMON GROUND

PRE-OPERATIONAL: “Common Ground” had to make a proposal for the Plaza de los Mostenses. The team developed a feasibility study for the square including a detailed analysis of its current status; a feasibility study on the potential intervention by artists in the façade of the public market; and questionnaires for the public market merchants association, in order to better understand the dynamics of the site and its network. “On The Blue Summer Evenings” made a preliminary draft to adapt the original ideas to the real situation of the plaza de Pedro Zerolo, on the basis of which the implementation was then limited to an intervention on ground floor, since the City Council considered that level -1 of the parking lot should be maintained to its current state. OPERATIONAL: “Common Ground” – a contract was signed for a feasibility study of the square already developed, including a new public space to the Schematic Design Level. The team frees most of the space reserved for cars, re-appropriating it for the citizens, and improving the accessibility of the whole space while repositioning the areas reserved for logistics in superficial level as the fresh food public market, which needs to have a better identity in relation to the public space. The underground parking lot becomes a productive space, a logistic platform that will feed the market and the whole area. “On The Blue Summer Evenings” – The transformation of the plaza de Pedro Zerolo will soon start. The association of friends of Carmen square –another square of the centre of Madrid– asked to the team to make a study for its renovation, including the design of the ground, but also the refurbishment and change of uses of the parking underground.

In the interior, the administrative uses and services are integrated into a new band allowing the division of the main space into two large areas, welcoming multiple organizations for the activities. A new piece –the Switch– hosts, besides administration and market offices, facilities and storage rooms that serve to the Vacant Space. It allows complete opening and closing of the connection between both sides.

presence of universities has guided the program: the idea was to consolidate the existing programs while implementing, from North to South, 5 sequences of high buildings (30 m) projecting at the territorial level, and low buildings (10 m) allowing the implementation of public programs or services. PRE-OPERATIONAL: The project was discussed with residents at public meetings, and with professionals during consultation workshops. The project has changed little in its principles but the permanence of the project and its capacity to adapt made it possible to answer the new regulations. OPERATIONAL: The team was contracted for project management, design and monitoring of all public spaces and as architect urban planner, with assistance for monitoring the implementation of the building. The buildings were built by other architects (RMR architecture and F.R. architectes) in consultation with the Europan team.

-3- Macro-Chip Urbain, special mention. The project inserts the site into a largescale consideration, including it in a long-term growth scenario together with the productive areas around, therefore fostering spatial and economical interactions between academic, scientific and industrial actors. PRE-OPERATIONAL: Two workshops were organised with the three teams; a presentation was then given to the different actors involved. The winning team (Jurassic Parks) was commissioned to produce a “plan of urban coherence principle reflecting the shared issues of the Campus urban project: urban and landscape orientations, identification and coherence of the programmed interventions and the potential densification sites, and diversification of functions”. From Jan. to June 2019, a study of urban design and programming of the campus was carried on. The pre-operational phase is part of a contract signed between the agglomeration and the Region for a short-term investment of 40 M € on the campus. The study was divided into three stages: - at the urban scale, identify main development directions and integrate the connections between the campus and the city centre and between the different campuses - at the scale of the campus, the technology park and the adjacent districts, development of a masterplan specifying each of the future operations of project; - at the scale of the land units, drafting of programs and briefs for the future consultation of project management

These resting areas, areas for leisure, even sometimes for meditation, cities can implement them often quite quickly, and make the change perceptible while allowing a quick appropriation of the projects by the inhabitants.

COMPETITION: The project tries to “dissolve the barrier of the railway tracks and to further establish the main station and its surroundings as coherent neighborhoodˮ. The answer on the topic lied in the adaptable concept, the treatment of the public space as a key element - a central square, a “forumˮ, which is a meeting and distribution point, well connected to the city but also protected in this noisy environment. PRE-OPERATIONAL: The competition project was kept in its integrity; just small adjustments were asked due to local regulation. The program was also evolving. The team made a master plan / zoning plan study which is after to be converted to an official zoning plan - a task done by the urban planning department of the city OPERATIONAL: The masterplan being fulfilled, further steps of the implementation are now expected, possibly an urban/architectural project addressing the development of the public areas, and preparation of the project(s) of the buildings.

project is an urban unit with a single new building and a square. Its plain shell contains a nursery, a performance centre and a retirement home, on the first two floors, and public institutions and housing on the upper floors. The square is a living platform for social interaction. PRE-OPERATIONAL: In Dec. 2000, the architects produced the urban design: car park capacity increased to 250 cars, housing is separated from activities, a football ground is retained, housing is proposed for the elderly, as well as a shopping centre (M-Preis). There was debate on whether or not to continue building tower blocks in the Olympic Village. OPERATIONAL: The building stands self-consciously in the middle of the two Olympic Villages, connecting them and giving them a new collective centre. Teenagers use the square as a place to hang out, and elderly people have found a place where they can live on their own.

mix-use building is designed as a sound barrier, protecting against the railway, and establishing a relationship between the building and its environment. PRE-OPERATIONAL: The process stopped after a preliminary study. Yet, in collaboration with another office, the architects integrated a new program: the House of religions / Dialogue of cultures. They then found a developer/investor by themselves. OPERATIONAL: The ‘House of Religions” is at the heart of the building, as a new home for people who have left their original home. Eight world religions live and pray together. The Europaplatz Centre offers 88 apartments from 1 to 3.5 bedrooms. The main body of the building hosts 2,600sqm flexible office units. On the ground level, a large shopping centre is oriented towards the public square under the highway. The Europaplatz emerges as a new urban centre for the n eighbourhood.

Clean up of Koemarkt square, adding a pavilion and steps to the river. The other runner-up ex aequo, Basic city + Felixx, based its proposal on the reinstatement of the Lange Haven and the connected space along the River to the south as the main space of the city, the canal being a logical city connector.

COMPETITION - RUNNER-UP 1: A NEW START WITH OLD GENES

COMPETITION - RUNNER-UP 2: COMPLETE SCHIEDAM

PRE-OPERATIONAL: The two teams worked together and searched shared values in the plans, around main points of discussion. The new assignment became a joint project, with planned regular sessions. The project became less conceptual. The building with the boxes for urban acupuncture was lost in the first phase. The programmatic scenario kept all options open. Urbanistically the connection between the city and urban district was kept also and became essential in the project. The clean up off the square is incorporated. Only the pavilion in the middle of the square is part of discussion. The combined plan from the previous phase was developed. Scenarios were added, and the entire master plan was cut into multiples (6 or 7) sections. These parts can be elaborated independently of each other, each at their own pace. OPERATIONAL: Meanwhile, the

master plan has been completed. The plan has been approved by the City Council and the budgets for realization have been released. The teams get an assignment for the design of the public space. A large part of the project area is being offered to project developers. They try to get involved with the architectural task associated with this. The public space design is currently in sketch phase, and it will really start. Hopefully the design can be finished so construction can start in 2020. Some new ambitions were defined for further design of the public space as the result of a â&#x20AC;&#x153;design researchâ&#x20AC;? with the city of Schiedam for the public space of the square.

COMPETITION: The

runner-up project, “Collections navigables”, proposes to requalify the public spaces of the city centre, to redesign the accesses and crossings at the station, to create pedestrian crossings from the city to the Seine, to transform the Papeteries / Fonderies site, and to imagine the transformation of the banks of the Seine… A prospective and evolutionary scenario. PRE-OPERATIONAL: The death of 3 members of the team in the 2015 attacks did not allow the team to participated to the pre-operational phases. OPERATIONAL: Two years later, in 2017, the city launched a public market of project management for the development of the city centre. The three rewarded teams were invited to answer. The runner-up team –mixing architects, urban planners, landscapers, engineers, light designers and urban sociologist– won the contract. The team proposes an adaptable and reversible vision for the city centre, with the implementation of an adaptable floor favouring every mobility and resolving the issue of parking as well as of support for businesses in this transition.

project maximizes the area: architecture is monumental, in consonance with the scale of the landscape. Each tower stands on a platform, including public viewing points and providing access to the river. PRE-OPERATIONAL: As the original competition site could not be built on, the client proposed a new site, a former industrial area sloping towards the river. The project wants to mark a clear break by organizing the volumes vertically, defining the access to the centre and laying out a new plaza, a large space which becomes the new centre along waterfront, providing a place for socializing, shopping and leisure, entertainment, sport and recreation. OPERATIONAL: The built project is more focused on connectivity and on developing an urban area for transit or relaxation. One goal was to mimic natural features and the area’s recent industrial past by means of street furniture and also the construction materials used.

PROGRAMMATIC STUDIES RUNNER-UP 2: A NEW URBAN VILLAGE

PRE-OPERATIONAL: Marseille Rénovation Urbaine entrusted both teams to make an urban study in order to redefine the site’s programation, the feasibility of the project and make proposals for a new qualitative urban and architectural logic. A 2/3-day workshop, in situ, took place and local actors (city, associations, funders) and inhabitants were invited to work, discuss and ask questions etc. The original proposals made on the urban fabric, the horizontal density, the public spaces genealogy and the publicization of the view were kept in the project. OPERATIONAL: Erilia, actor of the renovation project, gave the project management to Concorde for the development plan of transitory public spaces (5 to 10 years) and the prefiguration of future public spaces. On the site scale (10 000 sqm), the temporary project consisted of a small equipment inserted in a reworked landscape, with a density of uses creating a critical mass planification, surfacing ground mixing painted and pierced parts, a fence giving visibility and identity. Intended for sports, this space also became a playground: a wall is both a goal, a target, a shadow provider and a field for boules with benches. The use must define the destination of the planification, and the latter must welcome the children and teenagers’ imagination. On a site scale and on a long-term timeframe: boules, basketball, sculpture games. Noble material, sustainable and cheap creating a unified and qualitative vocabulary in shape of 210cm x 45cm x 50cm blocks, the stone is used to create different layouts: benches, borders, walls, fences.

COMPETITION: The

site expanded for 16 km along the river and the brief targeted temporary programming to revitalize this vast territory. The winning project focused on the question of how interventions on four separate underused, yet critical sites could have holistic effect to change movements and relationships of the entire river with the city. Based on adaptability, the project stands as an exploration of opportunities to experiment the effect of relatively small, soft and temporary interventions in various scales: Small scale – Temporary scaffolding pavilions with different programs; Middle scale – Clustering of multiple pavilions to host various events; Large scale – Subtle landscape interventions to transform the 4 sites into gathering grounds; Extra large scale – Swapping and interchanging the programs and events between the 4 sites via water and land transportation to enhance the East-West connection of the city along the river.

PRE-OPERATIONAL: In April 2016, Europan Hrvatska organized a workshop. The City of Zagreb contacted the winner one year later to continue with the implementation. The competition study site included 4 areas behind the dike and a riverbank, on approx. 16 km; the current sites are now located in front of the dike with a riverbank area of approx. 7 km. The City held several meetings, in which the competition project was adjusted to the new site. The team worked with several city departments and Croatian Waters to decide on the budget, annual funding, phases, permit conditions, calendar, juridical organization: 5 types of pavilions with several multiplications (in total 9 pavilions) will be implemented on 4 different sites with landscape connections; the contract focuses on a masterplan with the supervision of construction works. All interventions are rooted in the competition proposal; changes were made concerning dimensions and location adjustments. Phasing the project and testing to explore the results beforehand (part of the project idea) made it possible for the city to start investing without taking greater risks. OPERATIONAL: The contract for the documentation of basic design and execution projects was signed end of 2017; it includes a masterplan and an urban project (adjustment of the project to the new location); the first-phase pavilions basic design and execution; the landscape project; a second-phase pavilions basic design and execution; the first-phase pavilions supervision and coordination of construction works. All these missions are now done; part of the project is implemented, allowing the opening of the event “Summer on the Sava”.

3- HYBRIDATION CITY AND NATURE If we are to protect and enhance the nature and the living on the scale of the planet and at the Anthropocene era, if we are to plant trees again on large territories, for example for their virtue of absorbing carbon and producing oxygen, we also have to either enhance nature within the city, or create it when it is partially or totally absent from the city.

We have often opposed city and nature, and it is true that if one obeys an anthropological logic, the other follows a living, biological logic. How could we make compatible these two worlds that everything opposes at first –the natural one and the artificial one? In fact, with the development of more environmental approaches applied to the city, we realize that the urban environment is also made –like the human metabolism– of energy and natural elements, even if they are often invisible, like soil, air, heat, climate… We talk about urban metabolism and “inhabited areas” as a potential hybridisation of a natural environment and a human environment. It is a challenge to regenerate or create inhabited environments where nature finds again its rights and rules, yet associating it with those of human fabrication. It is therefore frequent, in Europan, to use landscape and natural elements as a way of adapting existing spaces to the city and its territory, focusing on their connection to local resources and their re-use. The catalogue of Europan sites properly reflects the multiplicity and the diversity of territories to transform into inhabited areas. The relationship between city and nature is often a question of scale. How can we connect the scale of the urban and/or architectural project with the one of the territory, where major structuring decisions are made –such as infrastructures–, but also where the major ecological issues are at stake –such as the regeneration of a river and its surroundings, or the fight against the effects of climate change at the scale of a coastline. This issue arose in the winning project in Saint-Brieuc (FR) / E13, where the city brief focused on the connection between the city centre and the sea. This project mainly proposed to revitalise large landscape units related to the topography and to connect the river and the sea with the city. The operational process consisted in designing a masterplan for central public spaces to be upgraded precisely by qualifying them through a reconnection to the territorial landscape entities. Managing wind and soils, and creating landscape horizons is the prerogative of several projects on different sites, but where the main issue is the reconnection of the most closed spaces of the city to the more open spaces of the territory.

These “reconnections” can also be considered on the scale of the existing built city, where there is still a potential for “re-naturalisable” spaces, which are often reserves of unbuilt spaces. In this way Europan has regularly sites where there is to think about a new kind of parks where nature, right in the city, finds again its rights, but with a compatible appropriation by man.This is the case, for example, of the rewarded projects in Amiens (FR) / E14 on a vast wasteland composed of a patchwork of obsolete industrial lands, with activity still subsisting on a small scale, and presenting a potential for renaturalisation thanks to a river and agricultural areas. The teams are currently working together on a pre-operational phase; the goal is to enhance nature by phytoremediation of the polluted soils, to establish an active nature, and, on the city scale, to connect building fragments to turn into inhabited districts, keeping in mind the relation with the natural sites. This is also the challenge of the winning project in Karlskrona (SE) / E14, which proposes to reconstitute the archipelago lost because of industrial urban development, by giving the inhabitants of the future inhabited environments a very strong and very direct connection with the dominant and abundant natural element – water. This hybridity can also be considered in the density of the urban fabric itself, where the artificial aspect dominates, but where the natural one finds a place on the scale of proximity. Rewarded projects on sites where the demand is primarily to build new dense programs propose to associate them with the reintroduction of pieces of landscape into the fabric of the city. This is the case of the rewarded project in Wien Siemensäcker (AT) / E12 where the proposal is simple, yet effective: widen the streets and plant fragments of linear “forests” bordered by the new constructions. This is also the case of the project in Savenay (FR) / E11, which, based on the measure of the agricultural lots, develops platforms mixing housing and work between country and city centre. Nature is inserted between or inside the built plates, connecting the inhabitants to the surrounding territory right from their doorstep. The interest in the Europan processes that take over the open spaces of the city – whether as permanent public spaces, or as temporary spaces waiting for a larger project– is that they can often be managed by the cities themselves on their own resources; this allows to either save the time of transferring the project management from the municipality to the promoters (often long and risky for the teams), or create intermediary steps for the project.

3- HYBRIDATION CITY AND NATURE

3.a — connecting public spaces and linking them to the landscape Very often, the relationship between city and nature on the Europan sites is first an issue of scales. How can we reconnect the proximity scale of the urban voids to requalify in the dense fabric to the larger scale of the city in its territory? Reconsidering, for each context, the way to quality the landscape areas as an inside, while creating “landscape horizons” through the buildings or from terraces. 82

winning project, “Agora 4.8”, wanted to give the S’Arenal site a new urban centrality implementing four work vectors that work on identity, metabolism, productivity and city urban relations, all translated into 8 project strategies. PRE-OPERATIONAL: The City of Llucmajor tried to find a way to move forward with the proposal and was interested in developing the remodelling of the Gran i General Consell Street in Civic Axis to present it to the call for “Investment projects and actions for the improvement of the tourist offer of the island of Mallorca”. It was the smaller part of the four zones. Not many changes were requested, except for the removal of the less possible car park areas. The team made an intense analysis of the ground floor uses on public and private space and of the existing vegetation, to make the competition proposal evolve, but maintaining all the ideas on the site. Due to financial reasons, the blueprint had to be planned in two execution phases. OPERATIONAL: The City is currently waiting for the grant for phase #1 of the blueprint.

COMPETITION: The

winning project opens the territory to the diversity of its landscapes, and in particular the three incised valleys that cross the city. The strategy proposed to reveal the scale of the site’s natural geography, in particular by clearing the hillsides to make the landscape of the valleys visible. The method is based on the identification of multiple projects possible in a longterm vision, including partial deforestation of valleys, which initiates a cycle of re-use of material to develop public spaces. This wood can be used on site to reintegrate valleys in urban routes and to develop public spaces in the city centre.

GUIDE PLAN FOR PUBLIC SPACES

PRE-OPERATIONAL: The City of Saint-Brieuc launched a limited consultation between the three winning teams for the development of a masterplan of the public spaces in the city centre that are considered as a priority. The team led by Iris Chervet wins the consultation. The masterplan is an evolving reference document, a tool for reading public spaces in the city centre. The idea is, at the territorial scale, to put the story of the city centre back in the land-sea axis and to propose an approach of the interfaces with the larger landscape; and at the level of the city centre, to specify the long-term orientations on the public space and the short- and medium-term action program. The team proposes a “toolbox” on the orientations in terms of planning, an action plan per sector, and communication documents for the general public. The masterplan provides the guideline for future development, and leads the City to the operational phases. The continuity with the winning project mainly lies in the approach and in the method. The idea is to have the territorial concepts of the competition project “get back down” to the scale of the city centre and the public space. OPERATIONAL: The city launched an operational phase on the priority sector of the cathedral, as a first implementation of the masterplan. A competition is launched mid-July 2018 between the 3 winning teams and is won by Iris Chervet’s team. The project involves an evolution of mobility towards a partial pedestrianization of the city centre, enhances commercial activities, and makes the Place de la Grille more readable as a geographical interface between the harbour and the plateau. The project, representing the urban strategy and the masterplan recommendations, places the historic heart in the land-sea axis by staging the topography going down to the harbour and by using materials evoking the landscapes of the Armorican coastline.

Renovation of a 1970’s self-sufficient garden city, creating more urbanities (exchanges, courses, relationships) between the competition neighborhood and the surroundings neighborhoods: it’s about making the neighborhood fit in well in the conurbation. PRE-OPERATIONAL: Project meetings between the 3 awarded teams and the various partners of the city for a 9-month time frame. In total, 6 themes-workshops were defined, often it was an issue from the neighborhood which was first dealt then extrapolated to a more theoretical reflection. After these workshops, specifications were drafted by the city to which the teams replied with an updated version of their projects. The process lasted for 2 years. Due to the several proposals, the site was expanded. OPERATIONAL: The selected team was given a 4-year Urban Planning Project but is not involved in the architectural design process. COMPETITION:

project inscribes itself in Don Benito’s values and pre-existences with a minimum intervention for a maximum positive impact, connections of public spaces, and valorisation of courtyards and patios as places for the community and as part of Don Benito´s history. Car and parking lanes are also minimised and a pedestrian centre is created. PRE-OPERATIONAL: Don Benito´s municipality completely rejected the project, arguing that an underground car park wasn’t what the municipality´s wanted. The Junta de Extremadura, one of the site’s main promoters, assigned the team with an accessibility urban plan in another municipality, Guadalupe, a UNESCO world heritage site. The scenario was completely different, and the project ideas were transferred through the method and tools. OPERATIONAL: The project will be implemented in different steps according to the needs and priorities, the money available and time. The municipality will choose the implementing actors through public tenders.

COMPETITION: The

project proposed a riverside park, extending North-Westward, as an attractor improving the riverside, giving an equal urban status to both banks, and with a residential eco-district on the Europan site: living in Sambreville in proximity with nature, not far from urban centres. PRE-OPERATIONAL: The team was commissioned to develop a masterplan based on their winning project, via a negotiated process. They integrated some changes requested by the city: interface between public space and residential area; development of the park with a system of landscaped basins for rainwater retention, riverside park with outdoor activities, spontaneous vegetation areas, vegetable gardens, and housing/services. OPERATIONAL: The territorial approach was a strong point in the project, but at the same time, it made its implementation complicated with the intervention of many stakeholders and European credits through the 2014-2020 FEDER program. Traditional and participatory processes are superimposed as two parallel lines in time, but complementary. The implementation will soon start.

IN 2015-2019

Making room for Gilly is a project proposing to transform a central parking lot surrounded by different public buildings and facilities into a public square defined by a generous park and tailor-made renovations in the centre of Gilly, a peripherical town of Charleroi around 5 principles: 1- EMPTYING: A wide urban room for Gilly. 2- DEFINING: to redefine the relation between the square and the surrounding buildings. 3- PROCESSING/REUSING: the existing is seen as an opportunity to develop a flexible building process. 4- CONNECTING: a continuous promenade under trees punctuated by public space interventions. 5- SHARED REFINING: a development logic for a shared refining between city, citizens, developers and planners.

PRE-OPERATIONAL: After the results of Europan 13, four candidates (2 runners-up and 2 special mentions) made a public presentation in front of the Mayor of the City of Charleroi and other politicians involved in the urban development of the city. A year later, a restricted competition between the four teams was organised by the City of Charleroi, including the finance of the project. The Charleroi Bouwmeester was following the procedure. This competition was based on a clear tender including all the practical points needed to implement the project. The runner-up team Making room for Gilly (CENTRAL office) got the commission proposing a deeply refined version of their Europan project. OPERATIONAL: Different local actors took part in the process in order to confirm/ disconfirm the intuitions and refine the project. Based on clear and strong principles, the implementation process was a matter of improvement and enrichment rather than a hard reality check. The dialogue with politicians and inhabitants has helped to identify new parts in the project, extending the mission far above the initial public space design. In this regard, the team feels very lucky to be able to navigate in such an interesting context that allows young architects to push the boundaries of the classical design process. Today the project is ambitious and truly tailor-made. The building permit is to be submitted soon for the public space, sports centre and boxing pavilion.

PRE-OPERATIONAL PHASE - RUNNER-UP 1: MAKING ROOM FOR GILLY

3- HYBRIDATION CITY AND NATURE

3.b — designing a district with natural elements When asked to live in the dense city, inhabitants only accept if they can have a relationship to nature in all its various aspects: plants, but also the lively presence of water, earth, wind and on a broader level, the climate. It is a fundamental ecological dimension that can be found in many Europan projects.

COMPETITION: To create a new district, the main goal was to create rules, that will allow the project to grow and shrink on an elastic principle, always reacting on its circumstances. The rules should define a grid that will enable qualities but still leave space for development. PRE-OPERATIONAL: The runner-up team was asked by the developer BAI to sign a contract for developing a new urban plan, including an urban feasibility study and an urban project. OPERATIONAL: The team should, together with other actors, create a new zoning plan, including a possible masterplan scenario for the whole site. Due to its complexity and conservative local laws, it was not possible to implement the ideas of the ever-changing elastic city principles. However, a new way of zoning definition was developed. The project is waiting to be approved by the city planning department. The next phase will be urban and architectural projects, based on the new zoning plan.

COMPETITION: There

is a dialogue between the new town centre and the context: an urban nucleus on the “Place de l’Hôtel de Ville”, open on the South on the new “Parc d’Epinal”, a garden thought as an urban park open to the city. Buildings fragment the new town centre into smaller parts, adapted to the urban scale, and create a program divided into functional areas. PRE-OPERATIONAL: A significant period was necessary to adapt the project, due to changes in the requirements of the administrative departments, and to ensure that the project cost would remain financially credible despite the addition of further underground parking. OPERATIONAL: The project became a central garden for Gembloux citizens. The process of fragmentation of the unitary mass of the building into three smaller parts is adjusted to the urban scale of the city and houses different functional programs. They are covered with a copper cladding, and there are glazed diaphragms between each block.

project is composed of built islands floating on a “belt of nature”, a veil of vegetation and wetland turning into continuous green connections along the lake and towards the city centre. An environmentally friendly and very heterogeneous development is created. PRE-OPERATIONAL: The municipality extended the site from 8 to 20 hectares. The project became 4 different projects: 2 with housing programs with shops and a kindergarten; 1 strictly with sport facilities with football fields, tennis hall and outdoor tennis. And 1 with a camping, although it can change in the future. Both residential programs were sketched with more detail. OPERATIONAL: The urban plan was done for 500 housing units, a kindergarten, a commercial building and a parking garage. A democratic process started where citizens and other authorities are asked to express their opinion. The team is negotiating with a developer to design some of the dwellings.

FIELD OF MONUMENTS

The transformation of the obsolete infrastructure area of the Lerum site presents the peculiar possibility of ending up with a considerable percentage of “unused” space. The reason for this is the security distances that have to be kept from the railway and the power plant, the noise from the motorway and the unstable ground by the shore of the lake implying expensive foundations for buildings. At the same time the site is extremely attractive for an urban development because of good commuting possibilities and a beautiful natural environment. Summing up: a site where the possibilities of the terrain vague have to be explored, a laboratory for an intensified experience that offers new chances for urbanity and urban wilderness.

Voids and Space of going

Space of Going: the space made by walking “What the rovings of the artists discover (Dada, Surrealism, Lettrist, Situationist, Minimal and Land Art) is a liquid city, an amniotic fluid where the spaces of the elsewhere take spontaneous form, an urban archipelago in which to navigate by drifting. A city in which the spaces of staying are the islands in the great sea formed by the space of going.” Francesco Careri. Walkscapes. Walking as an aesthetic practice. Guide psychogéographique de Paris, Guy Debord 1955

Dérive: drifting, pleasant adventure on the void.

The void has increasingly become the protagonist of the diffuse-city landscape after having long been a backdrop presence. However, the analysis of this urban model has always started with the full parts, the solids, as if voids represented unacceptable socio-economic deterioration and abandonment running contrary to the desired image of a prosperous city.

In 1955 the artist and writer Guy Debord publishes the Guide psychogéographique de Paris which was conceived as a foldable map to be distributed to tourists. This strange guide deconstructs the city map of Paris into recognisable fragments floating in empty space. The tourist is invited to get lost following trajectories that link memories and absences.

Our proposal departs from the voids, as a journey in a system of empty spaces, urban amnesias, through which it is possible to drift; a nomadic space ramified as a system of urban sheep tracks that are at the same time the act of crossing, the architectural object and the narrative structure that investigates peripheries and make them visible.

The derivé invited to experience the city as a playful territory where the concept of circulation means pleasure and adventure rather than functional mobility inside the circuit of the productive structures of the city.

Voids have the evocative power of absence, hope, expectancy, freedom, space of possible, the utopian, the future… Derivé becomes the tool for integrating those metropolitan spaces that demand comprehension rather than design; and to be filled with meanings rather than with things.

Dérive (Drifting).

team proposed a set of tools to question the heritage for new urban development on a former industrial area connected to swamp, connections with the historical centre, alliances with the territory and ways of living on the site. It could handle different planification or scenarios of development in time. The masterplan was an illustration of what the result could be. PRE-OPERATIONAL: The project went straight towards a 6-year urban development contract in 5 stages – urban development scheme, operational development, architectural feasibility, public realm, and assistance on the process. The team worked on the governance strategy involving all the local dynamics, from the territorial planning authorities to the inhabitants, including the mayor and his technicians. OPERATIONAL: The design guidelines for the new neighbourhood have been delivered, as well as the first phase of the public realm scheme (new station square and parking).

PRE-OPERATIONAL: The city invited the 3 teams to a workshop in order to study the main assets of the projects: I- highlight the living and local distribution networks: social and solidarity economy, food self-sufficiency, waste sorting and recovery centres, local canteen. 2- Highlight market gardening by setting up a point of sale. 3- Highlight the architectural and industrial heritage. 4- Link the 3 separated entities of the Montières site (The Somme river, the joint development zone and the city). 5- Restoring the flows of water. 6- Implanting a diversity of uses and modular spaces. 7- Preserve and restore the industrial estate. 8- Control the rainwater by installing valley gutters. As far as the process is concerned, it’s about building, on a long-term time frame, linking research and action through in situ workshops in order to design the urban project, coproducing it with all the actors involved. At the same time, the housing promoter OPAC entrusted a feasibility study about the Chrétien neighbourhood to Le28 Architectes team (+ Ondine Boutaud from Sédimontières team) with the Carlos team in charge of the landscape. This was about highlighting the living environment, in particular the regeneration of the river, creating a hierarchy of the living and proposing a diversity of the housing linked to its territory. The study suggests: I- Creating from a centrality an industrial identity. 2- Link the town centre while staying close to the river. 3- Mix of uses and an input on diversity. 4- Creating transversalities and linking spaces. 5- Creating a hierarchy and a diversity of the living. This happens when a porosity is created from the ground floors towards the quays stroll, offering views on the river, the alignment of a 2-floor built front delimiting the public space on the north side, the public space punctuation: creation of a small event volume: open-air cafe.

Housing clusters are used to “calibrate” the mountainous coastal site. Urban spaces are “rolled-up” as protection against the region’s strong East wind. The housing typology follows through this protective strategy, with just one elevation facing the wind; The flats have sea-views on the Atlantic Ocean or on the Mediterranean. Planta PRE-OPERATIONAL: Three months after the competition, the winning team signed a commission for urban and housing project: 127 protected houses, of which 41 are single-family and the remainder distributed in six tower blocks, firmly embedded in the old quarry excavations. The direct force of the wind and the damp climate required an intermediate, open-air space between the building and the external environment. paquetes funcionales OPERATIONAL: Problems came with financing. To build in Ceuta, North Africa, the materials have to come from the Spanish peninsula; to reduce the costs, the architects had to be innovative, for example recycling certain elements.

winning project re-establishes the topography of the archipelago around Karlskrona, thereby creating a transition from mainland; a landscape stretching across several smaller islands. A blue entrance to the city is created. PRE-OPERATIONAL: A workshop was organized with the municipality on how to begin the first steps. The team did a detailed calculation of the project square meters and the number of parking lots. This was done to secure a solid foundation for the following parts of the implementation and to make a phase plan step by step. But the municipality decided to give priority to an ongoing development in an adjacent area. The team made a study of this adjacent site, including the train station. The project is still in the planning phase but with a chance to be developed. OPERATIONAL: Urban project / architectural project / temporary project…on all or on part of the competition site (or on another site).

COMPETITION: To

adapt a former part of the harbour into a new urban program, the team analysed four archetypes of the city history–the relationship to water, the barges fleet, the warehouses scene and the infrastructural network– to give them a new signification in an abacus of tools combining past forms and future necessities. The false mirror in itself is a new form of adaptability, a plan that works with time and against the generic city, through a negotiation between the stakeholders; starting a process that would slowly develop overtime addressed several aspects. A “logical” process is proposed instead of chronological phasing: and a participative collaboration is suggested between the local actors, the tenants (cultural/art community and industrial activities), the Port Authority and the Municipality,

PRE-OPERATIONAL: As the Municipality already had a timeline for upcoming developments, the slow-paced phasing was well received. They already started a positive participation process, in which each phase was presented in open events to the city and local residents. The team’s work was included in the studies on how to redevelop the whole area of the port. Yet, due to this very long participative process, the Port Authority and Municipality decided to have the team work on short-time development strategies to activate a smaller portion of the area before its full development. OPERATIONAL: The commission includes two parts: — First, an urban development study for different strategies and scenarios on how Strandveikaia area could develop overtime, from the current industrial configuration to an urban one. This commission is given by the port authority after Europan competition; — Then, after an international call, teamed up with 2 local firms (Agraff arkitektur and Rallar arkitekter), Europan team has been selected, as well as 4 other teams, for a parallel commission to propose ideas for the development of the public spaces of the whole area of Nyhavna, set to be transofrmed in the next decades + the renovation of two buildings to be kept. The development of the competition area will require further focus by the owner, which is now looking for ways to finance it and private partners to jump in. Concerning the larger part of Trondheim’s harbour, Nyhavna, the municipality can decide before the end of 2019 to give a small assignment to one or more teams in order to develop a bit further one or more ideas emerged from their proposals.

3.c — urban parks as interconnections Creating or revitalising a park in a city is a frequent situation in the Europan sites. The rediscovery of abandoned urban territories or the conception of a new park can only succeed if scales interconnect, offering, within the same proximity, spaces for contemplation, for games and for services (ministructures) while being connected to the rest of the city.

project adopts a global landscaping approach on a hill in the centre of Alicante, where “living” takes place within a space of interiority, shady rooms and sunny terraces, but also ubiquitous squares, streets and gardens. PRE-OPERATIONAL: The city of Alicante commissioned the team for a central park on 7 ha between the historic town and the old castle walls. The project maintains the “raw” appearance of the hill, emblematic of the city of Alicante. It turns the technical infrastructures (waterworks, earthworks) into leisure features: gardens, esplanades, paths, terraces, and integrates a restaurant, a cafeteria, a maintenance facility and staff premises. OPERATIONAL: The implementation began in February 2000 and lasted 26 months; it went smoothly, with great commitment by the contractors, under the control of the team and with the help of a local architect.

COMPETITION: The

Jeunes-Rives site emerged in the 1960s. Neglected since the national exhibition, this site is looking for a new identity. The project seeks to regenerate the vacant site by creating a ring that unveils an area of greenery. As a sort of elastic, imaginary membrane, this loop symbolically surrounds and protects the park. Three other interventions in the town complete the strategy, by weaving together the urban continuities needed to revitalise the site. The proposal enlivens the location and more broadly opens up the question of the definition and appropriation of the lake shores.

PRE-OPERATIONAL: Following the competition the city of Neuchâtel commissioned the winning team for the development of a preliminary project for the development of Les Jeunes-Rives (a wide abandoned space between the city and the lake), considering the main ideas of the competition project, named “Ring”. This draft should particularly affirm the idea of a large public park between the city and the lake like a large green space in the heart of the city; expand the beach and therefore the swimming area; build more public spaces opened all year; and provide the population with relaxation and leisure spaces. A participatory process was set up to collect the inhabitants’ points of view on the development of public spaces, the facilities offered (number, volume and building shapes), the site’s activities and uses, and finally improve and strengthen the project. OPERATIONAL: The positive results of this public consultation were presented, and the project was strongly approved of. The team participated with the client in developing the credit application for the project phase. The request for credit will be debated and voted by the General Council (Legislative). The process has been delayed but the project will soon be in operational phase.

project reveals the value of the site as the vertex of the urban green belt that runs alongside the Besòs River, which in consequence is incorporated as an additional green zone. To fulfil the brief, it relocates the 80,000 sqm in the adjacent industrial area and regenerates the district from within.

PRE-OPERATIONAL: As part of the dialogue with the different associations, the municipality decided to propose both winning teams two different sites, located close to the competition site: for Carles Enrich’s team –“Rec Comtal / La Sagrera”– the main target of the study is to preserve and protect one of the most significant hydraulic structure in Barcelona’s city history: the Rec Comtal. The study has simultaneously developed the metropolitan and park areas so as to provide coherence and unity regarding intervention criteria along the path of the Rec Comtal. The intervention elements are water, vegetation and soil (as topography

and as material). To this end, it plans to valorise the hydraulic structure through environmental and historical recovering operations, contemplating the regain of running water possible along the longer section and understanding the archaeological pre-existences and existing trees as structuring elements. For the purpose of linking the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s culture and history with nature and leisure, they propose re-naturalization actions by planting riparian vegetation, orchards and fruit trees to promote the agricultural character around the Rec. The first commission was followed by a second one: the Rec Comtal Strategic Plan. The intervention proposes a new topography that appraises the historical traces of the Rec Comtal, but also the Roman aqueduct, the remains of the mill and the bridge of Santa Coloma. The project implemented works with the pre-existence and the territory. It works with re-naturalization as one of its strong points. OPERATIONAL: The

team will develop a project for an archaeological park in Sant Andreu and also planned 24 additional intervention points on site. The project is already in the city agenda.

EVOLUTION OF MOBILITIES BETWEEN COMPETITION AND MASTERPLAN

masterplan that would remain loyal to the goals of the initial competition, as well as adhering to the economic and legislative realities of both cities. The proposal gained the popular vote of the citizens of Tornio and Haparanda during a public exhibition and voting process The secondary elements of the plan were revised where necessary to take existing traffic routes, property boundaries and local planning legislation into consideration. Underground parking was selected, as the most effective way to utilize the unique riverside plots. Traffic solutions on the Tornio side were examined in detail to verify the feasibility of transferring the E4 into an urban boulevard. A new high-quality pedestrian underpass was planned along the Loop to mitigate the dividing effect of the E4 from the viewpoint of pedestrians and cyclists; the urban fabric along the E4 could be densified on each side of the national border while taking the national planning legislation into consideration. OPERATIONAL: The project will have to be developed into detailed zoning plans before implementation can begin. In Spring 2019 the city of Tornio commissioned TREA to design a masterplan for the Southmost blocks on the Tornio side of the E14 area. The design process includes detailed examination of housing volumes, yard areas and public space along the riverbank, as well as a study of alternative hotel concepts, and the design of a new attraction called the ‘Energy Park’, located on the Tornio side of the park. The Energy Park will be a high-quality public park, featuring several applications related to renewable energy. In the end of April 2019, the project team is still in the process of finalizing the aforementioned design phase.

COMPETITION: The

project proposes four linking elements along Bahnohfsstrasse to supplement the existing network of paths, to overcome topographical breaks and to develop existing spaces. Four buildings are therefore proposed oscillating typologically between land art and civil engineering. PRE-OPERATIONAL: The architect was commissioned with two projects: the redesigning of the station square and the refurbishment of an old open-air theatre, upgrading a relatively large area of the derelict town park, to make it usable for different events: from small-scale performing arts (audience of 100) to major events (audience of 3,500). OPERATIONAL: The new wooden shelter for the theatre was built without delay; a sculptured timber acoustic and spatial structure spanning the 20m-wide stage encloses the required ancillary rooms. Since its opening on 2010, pop and choral concerts, theatre performances, band contests and religious services have taken place at the new open-air theatre.

62 process-projects were presented in the previous chapter of the “guide”, highlighting the strategic themes of different metamorphoses that they developed; those projects, which have managed to reach the post-competition implementation phase, or at least a significant operational phase, come from the rewarded ideas and are led by the teams selected by the juries. Those project ideas are also often processprojects, namely that the young designers propose not only a vision, but also a modus operandi to develop it in reality. In this chapter we can already read between the lines –beyond the contents of the projects, yet articulated to them– several types of implementation processes that are to present from one site to another, in their structure, but also of course in their implementation in time.

About 30% of the projects rewarded on a site lead to an advanced implementation phase. Others go beyond the preoperational phase, but only concern part of the transformation, most often the urban phase. Others, eventually, only remain ideas.

The third chapter of the “manifesto guide” more specifically focuses on these process families with the analysis of 16 experiences of rewarded projects that have more or less succeeded in developing operational follow-ups. Some are already present in the guide chapter, but we also added others that did not have the same success in the implementation phase. Only 30% of the projects rewarded on a site indeed lead to an advanced implementation phase. Others go beyond the pre-operational phase, although they only concern part of the transformation. It is most often the urban phase, supported by a public project management – most of the time the municipalities, but it can also be regions or planning structures. But in many situations, this phase, leading to a study, a masterplan or a guide plan, stops at this stage and fails to involve the winning team(s) in a more operational phase of materialization of the urban projects. Various reasons can explain these very frequent and frustrating breaks for the design teams. Most often, this is due to an absence of operational project management to initiate a more concrete phase, or, when this management exists, they may want to continue with their own project management. Nothing can guarantee in advance that a rewarded team will manage to articulate the urban and architectural phases for example. The role of the public project management –habilitated to make decisions at the urban level– is fundamental as well in the more operational implementation phase, so that there is a complete process allowing the team to implement at least part of their project.

But there are also rewarded projects that a jury considers relevant, but that do not pass the threshold of the competition. They remain in the state of ideas, even if sometimes they help animate a debate on the local level… This can be due, for example, to a city rejecting the ideas rewarded on the site, even if, in some cases, we realize too late that this misunderstanding was related to a given moment, and that the ideas were able to change mentalities and the local vision and be often partially integrated at a later point. Other times, the reasons are more trivial: for example, a project owner, sole owner of the site, may want to sell the site –sometimes with the Europan project– but without the designing team… There is also above all, on the urban scale, the economic ups and downs that can cancel a planned project. The 2008 crisis in particular has had a very strong impact on the Europan operational processes, especially for the rewarded projects of the 11th session, with negative consequences on the ground, including the cancellation of urban operations.

XL SCALE – E13 - SAINT-BRIEUC (FR)

The outlook of the rewarded projects brings out families of operational processes… connected to the scales of the sites… most of all, to the capacity… of a project, which became a process, to articulate the scales together. The analysis of the outlook of the rewarded projects brings out families of operational processes, which are most of the time connected to the scales of the sites proposed to the competition. But most of all, this outlook is linked to the capacity of a process to articulate the scales together in a different way according to the contexts and the nature of their transformation. This chapter therefore proposes to identify families of process-projects in relation to the 3 types of scales that characterise the Europan sites. THE ‘XL’ TERRITORIAL SCALE— corresponds to the extra-large scale, which goes beyond the city in some cases (inter-cities or rural), from the mutation of uses and practices. For Europan, this means being able to develop, after the competition, large-scale strategic studies that allow the city to have an urban development guide or structure.

L SCALE – E10 - WIEN (AT)

THE ‘L’ INTERMEDIARY SCALE— is the one of the district or of a strategic urban fragment. This type of site leads to the development of rewarded ideas into urban projects in which teams can also develop an architectural part. THE ‘S’ PROXIMITY SCALE— is the small scale, on which urban architecture projects can be designed, but resonating on a larger scale. It is also a scale of rather fast fabrication, of smaller interventions, sometimes even temporary. But what mainly differentiates a process from another is its ability to move from one scale to another. The characterization of the processes is therefore related to the different forms of inter-scale moves. For example, projects of large territorial scale that go through all the stages until implementation can be characterized as “XL+  L+  S+”. Others will be limited to moving from one scale to another: “XL+  L+” for example, when the urban project is articulated with major territorial mutations; or even “XL+  S+” when the project goes directly from large-scale spatial decisions, often about landscape, to specific architectural projects. This presentation does not pretend to be objective, nor to be complete with regards to process families. It is an interpretation key to apply to each Europan process-project –whether or not they have been successful in going from ideas to onsite experience–, making them easier to read and understand.

S SCALE – E14 - AMSTERDAM SLUISBUURT (NL)

XL (territorial), L (urban/ architectural) and S (proximity) are the main scales to describe Europan sites.

To present this moving from a scale to another in implementation processes, is used an arrow between two scales. For example XL L means that a territorial scale project took also into account the urban/architectural scale in the implementation.

To define if the scale of the site has been activated or not in the implementation process, is used the sign + (activated) or - (non activated) after the scale. Thus, a process characterized by LS+ means that a project on an urban site has not been activated in the implementation at this scale (L-), but on the other hand, that an urban architecture project (S+) has been built.

The evolution of the Europan themes –"The Adaptable City" for E12 and E13, and then "Productive Cities" for E14 and E15– has led some cities to propose territorial sites on a larger scale. They are linked to very contemporary issues of restructuring large parts of city that are obsolete partly from the point of view of uses and partly from the one of spaces, like partially abandoned industrial wastelands. But many sites are the result of the functional zoning urban planning of the late 20th century. Cities want to overcome the spatial and social fragmentation that this planning has induced, and are considering the ways to create a new urbanity. This involves imagining large-scale interconnections (articulating the spatial and the social aspects) that open them up, and also combining uses and programs to recreate life where obsolescence had appeared. These territories therefore represent complex situations, not only for their identities in crisis, but also for the multiplicity of the actors involved (agglomeration + cities, private and public owners, various project owners and stakeholders at very different levels, etc.). And most of the time, the rewarded teams are multi-disciplinary, and already have experience in large-scale design and management of such complexity. These teams can therefore combine several skills, such as an environmental pole –with landscape architects, geographers, ecologists…– and an urban pole –with urban planners, architects, sociologists… It is undoubtedly on these sites that scales must be articulated together, because it is a question of making large-scale spatial decisions –infrastructural and landscape–, inducing effects on smaller scales, whether they are urban or even architectural. The fabrication processes are here necessarily considered in time – an uncertain time in the nonlinear phases of urban metamorphosis. This involves imagining flexible projects, but around intangible directions. An exemplary case of this is the project

in TornioHaparanda (FI/SE) / E14, where the winning team is developing a project that is already in the preoperational phase, around a very precise definition of mobility –a boulevard and a ring of soft mobility– and a landscape element of connection –a large park like a “heart" shared by both municipalities (XL). From there, the team starts to work in parallel on a series of partial plans (L) on fragments; these are defined by the interconnection between the major trans-local decisions and their articulation with more local existing environments, and with a more random implementation logic based on opportunities and the actors who will get involved. These logics of landscape and mobility can be found as well in the project of the winning team in Saint-Brieuc (FR) / E13. They had first of all, and as the city was requiring it, to consider the reconnection between the city and the sea through a topography of partly natural valleys (XL). But the project continues in relation to another demand of the city to restructure the public squares of the city centre. The winning team, that is also responsible for this task, decided to connect these interventions on a larger geographical scale with a scale between urban and proximity (L+S) by connecting the refurbished squares with the large landscape. In Zagreb (HR) / E13, the Spanish winning team decided to divide the scale (XL) of the site given by the city to the competition –16 km of floodplain on each side of the river– into platforms, where the soil is first redesigned as landscape (L), and then developed thanks to the installation of light and reversible micro-architectures (S); these can be annually installed for a few months in the summer – allowing the inhabitants to take over the banks– and then be dismantled and stored until next year. With these examples, we can identify a family of ambitious process-projects that require experienced teams and competent project management on these scales.

PROJECTS-PROCESSES SCALE 2

(L) urban/architectural scale Processes articulating the urban and architectural scales like two interconnected dimensions, each scale giving meaning to the other. The ‘L’ scale is the one that has been the most related to the Europan urban philosophy since the beginning. For each session, it corresponds to numerous competition sites, the transformation of which relies on the relationship between the urban and the architectural dimensions. It corresponds to going beyond the divisions between urban planning and architecture, exactly where they can interweave. 126

In this way, the urban project is informed by the potential architectural project, which cannot be reduced to the building, but rather extends to a proximity scale, integrating the space between the buildings, whether they are public space, intermediate or just shared. The ‘L’ scale can also relate to the one of the ‘XL’ territory in a way that they articulate, but without necessarily pretending to make spatial decisions that could have consequences on that scale. Specifications are of course given in the site brief at the request of the cities or the site representatives when developments on the ‘XL’ scale are to be considered. And the projects have to consider the impact that this territorial decision can have on the scale of the urban project. For example, when a river was cleaned up and the city is developing the surroundings on the larger scale, each ‘L’-scale project has to integrate it and deal with the interface between ‘XL’ and ‘L’. The winning project in Wien (AT) / E10 for example, despite being very large, corresponds to the ‘L’ scale. Right from the competition, the Spanish winning project introduces the proximity scale (S) as a measure of the urban scale through a repetitive grid of shared gardens over the entire site; and then the buildings are built around them following multiple variations. What is interesting in the implementation process that followed is that, after negotiating the whole project for several years through an exemplary collaborative process, which in the end lasted quite

long, the team has divided the overall project into smaller units to be implemented by different project owners. And this fragmentation of the project is only made possible because it defines very strict rules on the scale of the urban project, applying in each operational unit. As an illustration of this interweaving of scales, the rewarded team will implement one of the units with housing and services around some of the collective gardens. But sometimes the contracting authority does not agree on the urban scale of a project. It happened in Groningen (NL) / E3, where the city did not follow the winning team’s rather transgressive masterplan –advocating the fluidity of collective spaces– for the structuring of a suburban district. The team, on the other hand, was allowed to implement an open block resonating with their urban project on the ‘S’ scale. Similarly, in Barakaldo (ES) / E5, the project’s very organic approach on the ‘L’ scale was calling into question the rather traditional way of making the city (in the form of a grid of blocks), which the owner finally adopted. Still, the rewarded team was able to develop two experimental equipment on the ‘S’ scale, that they inserted in the traditional grid: a stadium based on the division into autonomous entities for other activities to happen when there is no match – a sort of chrono-architecture. The transition from ‘L’ to ‘S’ scale allowed to answer demanding requirements and to materialise some of the ideas of the winning project. This interweaving of scales allows a rather large flexibility between the competition projects and the ones implemented, while maintaining a strong affiliation with the rewarded ideas. But of course, for all these ‘L’-scale projects, it is necessary to try to develop the urban and architectural aspects together in process-projects that enhance their interaction.

WINNER: GARDEN>COURTYARD ARENAS BASABE PALACIOS ARQUITECTOS (ES)

CONTEXT In a suburb of Wien, on a site of 10 ha under the pressure of inhabitant’s increasing, the city wanted to develop a residential area in a low density district.

The winning project “Garden>Courtyard” created a network of public gardens as a division of land with buildings around them. Different parties, public body, private developers, cooperatives, and individuals, colonize these extrovert plots. The neighbourhood is gradually becoming denser, adapting to the needs of the inhabitants.

2010 - 2015

PRE-OPERATIONNAL After the competition a draft for the urban planning was produced. The project created a collective pattern for individual interpretation; the matrix of gardens organized the areas on the same principle as the competition project. The result is a porous fabric not only with a low carbon footprint, but also flexible. The process included all the stakeholders (city, experts, landscaper, sociologist) but also the representatives of the neighbourhood. After several years of a long collaborative process, the Wildgarten project densified (1000 housing and services), but with the same structural principles, was approved by the municipality.

WINNER LE 3ÈME VOYAGE DES DÔMES ATELIER DE VILLE EN VILLE (FR)

CONTEXT The district Kessler / Rabanesse is a suburb where public authorities have acquired many plots to allow the construction of a viaduct abandoned. The main universities have guided the program for an open and renewed urban environment bringing new services and contemporary uses. SITE

128

The winning project proposed to reinforce existing uses, constructions, and programs while bringing new and complementary values by carrying out 5 sequences composed of high buildings (30 m) –the “pavilions” marking the site at the territorial scale– and low buildings (10 m), allowing the implementation of programs or services around restructured public spaces.

A first study after competition allowed evaluating the project by a retroactive diagnosis. A second study then determined the possible programs, the definitive measures, the devices, the materiality of the spaces and their uses. The project has changed a little in its principles but has negotiated its installation during 17 years after the start of the studies. The methodology and project process have been fully integrated by local stakeholders. And the team helped to adapt the urban rules.

WINNER FORTUITOUS FILTRATION S333 ARCHITECTURE AND URBANISM (UK)

CONTEXT Between the old centre and a 1930s residential area, formerly occupied by industries and car parks, the site is a fragment of the old centre that formed a barrier to the urban fabric but with a potential strategic position, close to the teaching hospital. It offered the possibility for new living and working spaces.

SITE

The winning team proposed a dynamic vision of the contemporary city as a set of forces like energies in a magnetic field, combining buildings, people and transport systems. The design aimed to promote urban intensity through the intermingling of the city's patterns. A succession of empty spaces formed a fluid public space, open to the multiplicity and diversity of urban flows.

1996 - 1999

The city asked the team to extend the strategy developed for the competition over the adjacent site, containing an innovative concept, which was actualized on the site, but only the scale of buildings rather than a whole district: two broken lines of buildings, facing each other, created a fluid intermediary space between them, open to the city, cleverly arranged to generate a single morphological unity and called “iceberg”.

CONTEXT In the frame of the regeneration of the industrial valley connecting Bilbao to the sea, the city of Barakaldo needed to develop a new urban district mixing functions (residential, facilities, public spaces).

COMPETITION 1 Winner and 2 Runners-up. The Winner proposed an innovative morphology mixing the functions thanks to a fractal geometry.

1999 - 2001

The strong public developer didn’t agree with the winning urban project and preferred to implement a traditional grid of separated blocks. But inside this tissue, he gave to the 3 winning teams some public parts to design. The Winning team had two projects: a stadium and a square.

PRE-OPERATIONNAL

2001 - 2003

Flexibility of use of a stadium. The stadium is formed by multiple “buildings” organized independently and differentiated, creating together a stadium. Each of these buildings houses its own individualized services and accesses, which makes them susceptible to being used independently out of the time of football matches.

CONTEXT

PROJECTS-PROCESSES SCALE 3

(S) proximity scale Processes on a “micro” scale, that are associated to a larger urban project that gives it structure and meaning. The diversification of the profiles of young professionals participating to the competition has increased over the sessions. If part of them is interested in the design on the ‘L’ urban scale, or even on the ‘XL’ territorial scale, others –perhaps younger profiles– prefer to deal with projects that are smaller in size, and allow the development of ideas that are rather declined in the architectural project. Based on this observation more sites on the ‘S’ proximity scale have appeared in the recent sessions. 132

It is not a question of reducing the project to the only building, but of proposing competition sites of smaller dimension, the transformation of which however being determined on a larger scale, up to the ‘XL’ territorial scale. We are therefore used to saying that these sites are larger than their size! For example, it can be a small parcel of land creating a passage between or under urban barriers and connecting the territories around, while at the same time creating specific uses in the passage. Yet, once the ‘S’-scale site is connected to a larger scale, the situation gets more interesting in the way that more freedom is left for the architectural design, the proximity landscape and a more precise reflection on uses. For example, the process-project of the Spanish winning team in Selb (DE) / E9. It starts from programmatic built units, smaller than a building, but that can form entities when juxtaposed. This project is clearly also an urban acupuncture process. But the micro-scale connects to the macro, because this plan can be inserted in the urban gaps of the city centre, where there is a need for functions that can revitalise it. In terms of uses, the post-competition process, developed by the rewarded team in close collaboration with the city, was very innovative: it used the winner’s proposal of juxtaposition and acupuncture while developing the program from a series of services for the elderly –which was the initial request– to services for young people (nursery, youth

club, housing for young couples), therefore attracting a newer population that mixes with the inhabitants already onsite. Also based on the fragmentation into units, assembled to form a building, the project for the municipal services by the Italian winning team in Gembloux (BE) / E10. It uses the voids between the different parts to create a connection with the context –the historic city centre and a park introducing nature into the workspace. Here, the final implementation is very close to the competition idea thanks to the will of the mayor, who carried the order and supported the team of architects until the end. This project design based on smaller elements undoubtedly facilitates the possibility of implementation; it can indeed for example be done by steps, with lower budgets and according to land and financial opportunities. But the ‘S’ scale does unfortunately not necessarily lead to an operational process in every situation. The actors also have to work together. If the city carrying the project is the project owner, chances of completion are greater. But if they are only the initiator on the urban scale and must be relayed by other actors for the implementation, the probabilities are greater that the process come to an end between the strategy phase and the implementation. This was the case, for example, in Elmshorn (DE) / E10, where the rewarded team was able to develop the masterplan of the station and its surroundings, for which the city was responsible, but could not make it to the operational phase, because the site was owned by the railway company, which did not give any follow-up. However, with this scale allowing to propose a fabrication process right from the competition project, the potential to implement is higher. And this is why Europan is looking for more sites on this scale (S) for the next sessions.

WINNER CATALOGUE FOR DWELLING ON THE TIME GUTIÉRREZ-DELAFUENTE + TALLERDE2 (ES)

CONTEXT Selb is a German “shrinking” city due to the closing of the porcelain industry. The city would like to restructure and densify the centre.

The winning team proposed to establish a catalogue of very specialized programmatic strips, strongly anchored in the local context, working in a short term just as extensions (prosthesis) of the existing houses, and creating by addition a new urban fabric in a medium-long term including facilities and residential units.

2008 - 2016

The urban regeneration plan for the city of Selb is based on an urban acupuncture therapy. The process proposed was flexible enough to integrate changes of programs between competition and implementations. The collaborative process showed that it would be more strategic to integrate facilities that attract young people to live in the centre.

CONTEXT

1996

The site is located in the former village built for the Winter Olympic games. It was an housing estate, mono-functional. The city wanted to implement new type of housing with public spaces.

COMPETITION The project proposed unity for this outlying district, generated by a single new building and a clearly defined square. A nursery, performance centre and retirement home were on the first two floors; public institutions and housing on the upper floors.

134

Following the 1996 competition, nothing happened until the year 2000. It was not until a new city council was elected in August 2000 that the go-ahead was given for the operation.

2000-2006

The architects were commissioned to produce an urban design containing modifications –car park capacity increased, housing separated from activities, housing for the elderly people rather than a retirement home, separation of private and public operations– without fundamental change to the morphology of the original project. There was debate on whether or not to continue building tower blocks in the Olympic Village, which finally concluded in favour of the architects.

CONTEXT

2009

In the central urban nucleus on the ”Place de d’Hôtel de ville”, the city wanted to build the new administrative town pole.

COMPETITION The project established a strong dialogue between the new administrative town pole and the context. The generating sights on the symbols of Gembloux fragmented the new town pole in smaller parts in conformity with the urban scale and they create separated functional programs. COMPETITION

The mayor and responsible authorities accepted that the competition itself constitutes a competitive tendering process, which can lead to a negotiated procedure. The fragmentation of the building and the views of the city’s landmarks, primary elements of the project, were maintained, although the initial functional programme was reduced. The spaces between the buildings, thought as void spaces, were covered with glass and became connection elements among the different departments of the Town Hall. The south front of the building is entirely opened on the Parc d’Epinal, becoming the central garden for citizens.

COMPETITION The winner project proposed to transform the former isolated hospital into a vibrant part of the city, combining residential and health care functions, and making the area more accessible.

2013 - 2018

PRE-OPERATIONNAL After a seminar, the winning team received a commission to design plans for the future development of Laakso and Aurora hospital areas. The idea of phasing the project was taken into account in the first discussions with the actors. A flexible building structure was developed which allows different uses (hospital ward, policlinics, psychiatric care, housing for elderly people etc.). It gave the possibility to make a masterplan for the site without knowing the exact functions and room program. The team received a second commission for studying deeper Laakso hospital, focused on psychiatric and somatic care.
