Sarmizegetusa Regia Preservation, restoration and exploitation of the archaeological site

One of the most famous archaeological sites in Romania, Sarmizegetusa Regia consists of a fortified perimeter linked to a sacred area through a paved road. Ruins of roman baths have also been discovered near the fortifications, studies having been carried out here since the 1950â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, followed by a restoration attempt in the late 70â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. At the current time, the site presents only ruins and archaeological vestiges which no longer resemble the original buildings. Studies conducted in the first part of the project showed that the state of the site is critical in many places. The water from rain and snow has destroyed the wooden elements and has allowed biological colonies to infest the andesite and limestone. Vegetation has extended up to the point where the fortified wall is pushed aside. In the summer of 2018 due to heavy rain, the earth was washed away, threatening the integrity of the sacred area, putting in danger visitors also. These are only a few of the problems that concern the ruins, most of which are scattered all over the site.

This project aims not only to preserve and restore the existing archaeological material, but also to attract more tourists and to help them to properly understand and interact with the site. In order to do so, a set of visiting paths was proposed, along with small pavilions (without underpinnings) placed at the site entrance and along the main path, serving as storm shelters as well. As for the ruins, using historic informations, all temples will be completed with replicas of the missing pieces, while some of them will go under archaeological excavations and studies in order to bring to the surface documented historic layers. The topographic problems will be solved through embankments which will resemble the antique walls that separated the artificial terraces on which the city was established. This project also aims to present the first attempt to an anastylosis of a column, setting an example on how an archaeological site should be understood and made more comprehensible for the visitors and not only.

The limestone temples

In this particular case, apart from the actions listed for the whole sacred area, the concrete slab added in the 1980’s will be removed and the slope will be stabilized by using gabion walls. At the same time, one of the visiting paths will descend through the sacred stairs, marking the connection between the Pentagonal Tower and what should have been another part of the defensive system.

In this case, apart from the general actions that apply for the whole sacred area, we need to mention the first attempt of an anastylosis of a column which will use both original material recovered from site and new material replacing the missing pieces. At the same time, the artificial terraces will be reproduced using gabion walls and also original material found in place or scattered around the site.

In the areas where the wall is in danger of collapse, blocks will be rearanged and the emplecton will be reinforced with wooden beams. At the top, the emplecton will be protected against water with a layer of clay. Top view

TITLUL PRO

The historic battlefield Mărăşti Places of memory

This project was initiated by the National Institute for Heritage, aiming for the integrated research of architectural, memorial and cultural values of a historical site linked to the World War I events. The greatest challenge of the project consists in interpretating and exploiting the cultural landscape of a “battlefield”. The permanent or temporary trenches that can still be seen today, along with the memorial component kept alive in the inhabitants’ way of living speak about the military actions during the Great War, and the reconstruction of the village through the efforts of soldiers and locals conducted by generals Averescu and Mărgineanu and carefully watched over by Queen Mary. A new element taken into account as an esential part of heritage is the introduction of landscape as the place of military conflicts during 1917 from July to September. This element will encourage integrated development as well as the connection of ecological, cultural and landscape values of the historical site of Mărăşti.

During the project, started also the gathering of all the materials needed for the architectural and cultural landscape studies, in order to inscribe the historical site of Mărăşti on the National Historical Monuments List. One of the main targets is the re-education and implication of the community - both locals and authorities - in protecting the natural and built heritage of Mărăşti. The purpose is to develop local turism and to add this village and its surroundings to the european map of cultural tracks of World War I, also marking the important moments that led to the Great Union in 1918. So far, the project had two phases - the first was in November 2017 and consisted in gathering architectural informations about the public buildings signed by the Mărăşti Society, while the second one took place in August 2018 and extended the info gathering to the houses built by the society and also to the traditions, stories, geographical studies of the tranches and aspects that played a part during the war. A complex team was founded, combining architects, archeologists, historians and sociologists.

“Queen Mary” School Built during 1919-1921 by the Mărăşti Society, the school was quite modern for the rural area at the beginning of the century. It contained 4 classrooms, a sewing shop, teachers’ room, as well as a small museum and a library. There were also rooms available for teachers while the servants’s accommodation was in the basement. After a while, the basement was turned into a science laboratory and the teachers’ rooms became smaller classrooms. After the 1950’s the sewing shop turned into a festivity hall, only to become a gym hall in the 1970’s. In 1995 the gym hall turned into two classrooms by adding a separation wall. Starting from 1929 there was another small building added to the school property, containing aditional rooms for teachers, a laundry, medical service, a kitchen and a dinning hall. In the 1950’s this building along with the school formed the only boarding school in the area. At the present time, the small building is no longer existing, and the school is no longer functioning. There is only one classroom in use as a kindergarten. The project aims to revive the building through summer schools and even special shops so that the local traditions will continue and even increase the general income of the village.

Houses built by the Mărăşti Society Not only people played an important role during the war, but also the houses which were used as defensive points. This led to massive bombing and so, most of the village was destroyed. After the war, the Mărăşti Society built during 1919-1922 19 houses for families affected and helped another 25 families to repair their homes. Most of these houses are situated in the center of the village, facing the main street. The traditional establishment consists of house, stable and a small barn, all placed on a rectangular plot followed by a plough field. These houses are made of stone and brick masonry, depicting a traditional image. They usually consist of a porch, two or three rooms, a small barn accessed from outside and a cellar whose access is located under the porch. The shingle roof, the lime plaster facades, the sculpted wooden pillars, as well as the decorative elements around the windows are all vernacular pieces used in rebuilding this village. Most of these houses are still in use today and their owners are aware of the historic meaning they have but time and poverty had their share and so, some of the buildings went through changes that makes it hard to recognize the initial image of them. The project aims not only to preserve these houses, but also to educate the community in taking advantage of the rich layers of history and traditions they have.

The school and the fortress of Saschiz, Mureş Restoration of vernacular Saxon architecture

In Romania there are seven villages listed in the World Heritage List as “villages whith fortified churches”: Biertan, Valea Viilor, Prejmer, Viscri, Saschiz, Câlnic, Dârjiu. They capture to a large extent the type of habitation specific to Saxon colonists brought here in the 12th century. Located in Mureş County, near Sighişoara, Saschiz is at relatively short distances from the other villages listed on the world cultural heritage list, and so, enjoys a favorable, central position. The architecturally and historically rich fund, along with landmarks such as the fortified Evangelical Church and the peasants’ fortress are the basis for the application of integrated conservation processes, justifying and encouraging it at the same time. These aspects represent the premises of the vision of enrolling the village on the map of the restoration and research centers, becoming a model for similar establishments in Transylvania.

Considering the proposal for the development of the settlement as a restoration center, the edifice of the German school is the most suitable place for setting up the school. The main building, designed to accommodate classrooms and laboratories, represents the interface between the proposed function and the external evironment, while the volume proposed within the parel focuses strictly on specialized workshops. Aiming at young people from all over the country, this school offers practical courses divided into different specializations, and encourages a new generation of craftsmen. Accommodation will be available nearby for students from different cities. As for the peasants’ fortress, the status of ruin will be assumed. The proposed interventions are minor and provide mainly structural stabilization elements, as well as the interpretation of towers as access points to different perspectives of the city and surroundings.

The German School

The main target is to preserve the rich historic material and the picturesque image of the fortress. The walkway was rebuilt, connecting the towers and offering access to different types of arrow loops. Each tower is seen as a highlight with different perspectives over the area. The intervention has no intention to reproduce the exact spaces, but to allow a better understanding of the fortress. The difference between the old and the new is made through materials - weathering steel and translucent cover for each tower made of EFTE. As for the chapel, due to the lack of historic data, a translucent sihouette was more suitable, hosting an information desk and a small exhibition which continues underground with another similar space.

Considering the proposal for the development of the settlement as a restoration center, the edifice of the German school is the most suitable place for setting up the school. Its central position, along with its previous function, justifies this. Also, while respecting the civic nucleus unchanged for centuries, any public service, especially education, must operate within the existing perimeter. The old volume hosts the teaching class rooms, a library and materials lab, acting like a public interface with the exterior. The workshops are located in the backyard in a different new volume inspired by the annexes in the village. The four different workshops are following traditional ocupations in the area, such as pottery, and are divided as followed - the metal workshop, the stone workshop, the wood workshop and the pottery workshop. The school schedule follows the traditional calendar of higher education institutions in Romania, combining theoretical lessons with practical ones and presenting the students with aditional information concerning marketing and business, in order to prepare them for real life situations. Also, another purpose of the school is to apply the knowledge to different houses in Saschiz, restoring the rich built fund.

Urban hybrid Building inserts in a protected area Victory Avenue, Bucharest

Victory Avenue is an important link for the history and culture of Bucharest. Its importance is also amplified by the buildings around - the Royal Palace, the Palace Hall, the Romanian Athenaeum, Kreţulescu Church, the Telephones Palace, and many others. The architectural variety is a strong proof that the importance of this avenue was never diminished throughout the citiy’s development. Given this dense context, an innovative architectural structure and form will emphasise the area’s capacity to embrace and integrate the new. Emphasising the avenue should have an impact not only at a micro level (by gathering people) but also at a macro level by establishing a symbol of the regeneration capacity of the city. Located on Street Matei Millo no 5, the “hybrid” building has 3 basement leves, and another 26 leves above the ground. It becomes a mark for the Victory Avenue - functional and architectural -, and also a head of perspective from Ion Câmpineanu Street.

The connection with the vicinity is made through a lower volume, while the main one is pushed on a vertical direction by the urban tension around. Given the close proximity to the avenue, the building becomes an urban pole, attracting a large number of people. The diagrid structure allows multiple facets, depicting the area’s dynamism. The hybrid term comes form the presence of multiple functions under the same roof. The transparent ground floor opens to the public and invites it in while a more cozy atmosphere is offered by the first basement level which shares the same function as the level above - restaurant and cafe. The next 3 levels are also occupied with public spaces - galleries and auction halls, conference rooms. The tall volume hosts offices - with two non-conventional leves with a closed terrace for experimental offices - and an apart hotel at the top leves. The rooms and apartments here benefit from a wide perspective over the city and an indoor garden.

Juvenile rehabilitation centre Bucharest

This project is oriented towards the creation of a proper environment for the rehabilitation and the integration into society of problematic children. Beside the educational aspects, architecture can also play an important role in this transformation process. The main targets of the integrated educational project are: ensuring a proper climate for personal development, assuring the sense of usefulness while staying in the rehabilitation centre, reducing the social and psichological vulnerability, learning new skills in order to socially integrate. In order to achieve these targets, the following aspects should be part of the daily activities that children have access to: school classes, professional development, sports, library access, cultural and artistical activities, psichological and social counselling. Given the fact that the site is located at the intersection of two different urban textures, the rehabilitation centre will play a mediator role when it comes to heights differences. Since this function is a sensible one, a park will be positioned between the centre and the 1 May Avenue, acting like a filter. A secondary road will give access to the centre. This centre needs to educate and also change the way children interact with the society. The shape

of the building is inspired by the spiral - a symbol of development and constant growth. This shape is perceptible from the inside, given the presence of courtyards at different levels. Two accesses allow the separation between the interaction with the community zone and the childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s entrance. The first access is visible from the park and is oriented towards the visitors and the community. This area hosts a reception and a waiting room, a meeting room, a conference room and multifunctional space where children can present and sell the objects they made. The second access is a more retreat one, on the northern part of the plot. The reception here allows the registration of the children. The ground floor also hosts administrative offices, the kitchen and the dinning hall, recreational rooms for children. The lower leves are dedicated to the class rooms, workshops and the library and they have access to another courtyard. These leves also host a gym and technical rooms which can be accessed only from the administrative area. The dormitories are located in the taller volume. Each module consists of a small living room and three double bedrooms. The top floor hosts a small chapel and an open garden with access for all the children.

Restoration project Solacolu Inn - Bucharest

The construction of the Solacolu Inn started in 1859 and it consisted of two identical houses with storage in the basement, a commerical ground floor and apartments at the first level. These two buildings belonged to the two Solacolu brothers and were so alike that they appear to form a single entity.

The project aims to restore the facades and the building, following the informations provided, in order to obtain a propper space that can be the home of artistic movements. The ground floor will host exhibitions and a caffe while first floor will provide home to different artists and their studios and workshops that can be opened to the public.

The construction is typical for that period - masonry with vaults and wooden floors. An older element that can still be found here is the small corridor with an exterior glazed wall with a wooden or metallic frame (â&#x20AC;&#x153;geamlĂ˘câ&#x20AC;? in Romanian) built on a wooden floor sustained by metallic elements. The main facade is decorated with eclectic elements - oriental motives for the ground floor and Reinassance elements at the first floor.

A new roof will be added, following the structure of the original one. The original gable was lost, so the replica will only remind of its position and proportions. When it comes to decorative elements that are lost and cannot be entirely reconstructed using exact information, the new elements will only speak about the position and the aproximately dimensions. There is no room for personal assumptions in restoration. The elements that can be restored in a more precisely way will have a slightly different color tone from the original ones to make the difference. The same applies for the new layer of plaster which will have a small difference in its color tone.

During the last 30 years, the building has quickly started to decay due to the lack of interest in its preservation and the inappropiate usage by homeless people. The roof collapsed leading to the disappearance of most of the wooden elements. Windows are shattered, some of them are blocked with unsuitable materials, most of the decorative elements have disappeared just like the original gates and the plaster started to fall off. Inside the building, the wooden stairs collapsed while the large amount of garbage deposited here makes the space unusable for now.

As for the structure, all new elements that are required in order to stabilize the building will be metallic ones. The vaults that collapsed will be rebuilt using the same traditional technique and materials. Concrete should be avoided given its irreversible nature which is not recommended in a restoration project.

Decay analysis of the street facade 1. The plaster on the facade is decayed, with multiple cracks and detachments, leaving the masonry exposed to direct water and sun. 2. A number of decoration elements are missing, while the others are decaying, but can still be used as a reference for the missing ones. 3. The existing windows are in a poor condition and require restoration if possbile. They also serve as an example for the new ones which will complete the missing ones. 4. The metal elements are also in a poor condititon and require restoring or, if not possible, replacement with similar ones.

5. The sidewalk and the acces stairs are decaying. Around them there are several pieces of plaster or decorations that have fallen off. 6. A number of windows and doors have been blocked with fake inappropiate walls. These parasite elements must be removed. 7. There are only a few glass sheets left. In this case these elements will all be replaced with new ones. 8. The roof collapsed in 2010 and since then the first floor started to quickly degrade. This effect soon spread to the ground floor. 9. Most of the cornice elements are decaying. Restoration and completing is needed.

This hub is concieved also as a place where the artists can also live and create by renting different studios and workshops located at the first floor. In this way they can also open their working space to the public that will be able to better understand what motivates and inspires an artist, and will have the chance to get to know the persons behind the exhibitions.

Given the current state of the building, the following actions must be taken: - total replacement of windows with wooden ones that will follow the exact pattern and size; - restoring the wooden ceiling; - total replacement of the metalic roof with a similar one, keeping the same structure; - restoring the facade and using a different colour more similar with the original one; the current colour was added by the last inhabitans which were unaware of the value of the building; - verifying for the presence of Merulius Lacrymans, in which case certain actions must be taken into account before the renovation starts.

Older photos can contain important infos that usually prove to be useful during the restoration process: - the way to solve glazed wall facing the courtyard - wndows and how they open; - the fact that the lower part of the glazed wall is protected with an iron sheet that has at its bottom small iron decorations; - Although the photos are black and white, it is easy to observe that the decorative elements on the main facade are white, and the plaster applied on the first level has the same color as the one applied above; - the drainage spouts are located on the facades and do not perforate the architectural elements.

Plaster faĂ§ades around 1900 07

Training on restoration Mauerbach, Wien, Austria

The training focused on teaching traditional manufacturing techniques that were used on Art Nouveau facades around 1900 to create various appearances of the surface by using different plaster structures (combed plaster, squeezed plaster), decoration elements and cast elements. It also focused on transferring knowledge about historical and modern construction and conservation materials, like Roman cement, the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Wiener Hydrauerâ&#x20AC;? and finishing plasters, as well as on best practice monument conservation, repair work and supplements. The event took place at the venue of BDA, at the Information and Training Centre for Architectural Conservation Kartause in Mauerbach. The main group target consisted of restorers and monument conservators, artisans experienced in working with a historical building structure, architects that deal with monument conservation.

The 4 days training consisted of both theroretical classes and practice. The theoretical courses focused on the following subjects: Art Nouveau facades in Austria - plaster facades around 1900, binders and aggregates, lime technology and lime slaking, hydraulic binders - romanzement, Portland cement and NHL. The practical courses were held in the courtyard of the Kartause and focused on applying most of the informations gained in theory classes. The advantages of using the roman cement were explained by making a cast of a cornice element and also a special element that is similar to stone and can be used on facades. Both advantages and disadvantages were presented when applying this cement in a decorative cassette in a thick layer. The different kind of plasters were also explained and the participants had the opportunity of applying these kinds of plaster by themselves.

Preparing the silicon mould by spraying a solution of water and soap in order to remove possible air bubbles

The roman cement is added with the help of a trowel while the air bubbles are removed by shaking the mould a little.

Within 15 minutes the cement has already changed its consistency and started to bind.

After 20 minutes the cast can be removed and let to dry on the table. At this point colours can be added and small errors can be retouched.

The decorative cassette that will be filled with roman cement added in just one layer

After applying the roman cement, a more stone like image can be achieved by imprinting different patterns using rocks or ohter materials.

The washed plaster is obtained by pressing pebbles in the plaster layer, followed by washing away the plaster surplus.

The combed plaster is obtained by applying a plaster layer and combing it later with a special brush with metalic teeth. A more natural look is gained by applying circular moves.

Restoration camp Bánffy Castle, Bonţida, Cluj

Transylvania Trust is in charge with the restoration and the rehabilitation of the Bánffy Castle in Bonţida, Cluj. Each year, during summer, this place hosts a two-week restoration camp during which the participants attend classes and work on site with specialized staff in order to restore the building and its surrounding area. This camp aims to attract both students as well as professionals from different fields such as architecture, structure engineering, archaeology, art history, landscaping and many others. The restoration camp is structured into theoretical classes and specialized workshops - stone, traditional carpentry, mural techniques and masonry. Each participant has the possibiliy to choose one of these three workshops, at the end of which he will present his work to the other members and will also take an exam in order to obtain a participation certificate.

During the summer of 2017 I attended the masonry and mural techniques module. Given the fact that the basement presented serious structure problems and the walls were in danger of collapsing, the team worked at this level for six days. We cleared the space, searched for foundation stones, prepared bricks and mortar, cleaned the walls and completed them where necessary under the surveilance of professionals. The module also included one day work for each team at a collapsed vault. The mural techniques included stucco, sgraffito, fresco and secco. During two days we prepared the layers for sgraffito and a fresco. Our fresco also included a dark secco frame applied later on the already dried surface. The teacher explained us differences between techniques, the recipes for different layers and how to mix colours and use them in our works.

Graphic Design The Art History Publisher Association

The Art History Association was founded in 2011 and its main purpose is to organize different educational and cultural events - history, art history, painting and crafts, heritage protection. Initially these events were adressed to children aged 4-11 but since then the guided tours, conferences and classes started tackling subjects also appealing to adults - professionals and not only. The team consists of art historians, historians, architects, translaters, photographers and graphic designers.

During my time as a volunteer, my main task was to design posters for different events held by the association - conferences, guided tours and workshops for children. Most of these events were dedicated to the celebration of the Carol Ist Park and their main purpose was to help people of all ages aknowledge bits of history. I also participated as a staff member during different events held both indoor and outdoor and helped with the organization.
