Studio Brief The introduction of modern, global and regional, communication, and transport networks into mid-sized cities were intended to place them on the global map. Instead they have sucked the flavor out of existing cities, forming self-centered nodes that have transformed the spaces around them into peripheral zones, cities into metropolitan hinterlands. The resistance of local communities to the creation of big infra-hubs, political decentralization and many failed projects of the kind have all shed light on this urban strategy. But the necessity to connect to regional networks via big hubs still remains. There is a need to redefine the role of cities hosting important regional infra-hubs in the global game of power and success. What kind of relationship between these hubs and European cities can lead to a new harmonious development framework? What strategies can be employed in order to reclaim city territory and save it from monotonous concepts often attempted to find a place in the global market? Lille is the exemplary case. In the 1990s, the Euralille development undeniably placed it on the map of Europe. Current spatial initiatives happen at the fringe. Lille consists of paradigmatic, historical, urban patterns juxtaposed to one other: Medieval to Flemish, Flemish to Hausmannian. It’s a human-scale Paris! Special, attractive and functional! Large-scale restructuring and densification of the city is not an option. The center of Lille is practically untouchable. Eura-ring is proposed! It is a contiguous development along the ring road surrounding the city and connected via four major boulevards to the old city. The premises for the proposal were four-fold: Lille’s size would make the proposal concept accessible to the whole city. Eurallile has already established a precedent for successful, unaggressive ring road development. The space around the city has many attractive but underused and underconnected assets, including a waterfront, sport facilities, and a Citadel. And, the ring road doesn’t cover the city’s western edge, allowing Lille to remain easily extendable. This first-year research studio, through a series of research and design efforts, will consider: how can the proposed development framework be implemented spatially? What are its potentials? How can it induce the regeneration of the existing city? Can we come up with new strategies and intelligence on dealing with infrastructure? The project aims to redefine the symbiosis between urban agglomerations and their supra-regional infra-networks. It will search for new means of growth and regeneration for the mid-size European cities.

Task: Search For Space Of Hope Can European cities regain the vitality and attractiveness? How should they cope with the unstoppable Globalization? Can they send an “everything is possible” message, like the most vital world cities do? The message of openness and inclusion? What policies would be needed to support this message? What kind of people would be able to initiate the feeling? What kind of space would be able to house the initiatives? Eventually, is there such a space in European cities? What’s Wrong? European cities are stuck in a pointless search for the uniqueness. Exhausting competition without real winners. Same arguments, same tools. Energy spilled over in a an ever lasting reproduction of the status quo. City development in Europe is largely influenced by the profit making and short lived political agendas aimed at ad hoc results for campaigning purposes. This significantly shortens the time frame and simplifies criteria for the evaluation of the results. Answers from policy makers today inspire regeneration strategies which, regardless the scale, suffer from one or more of the following issues: simplification of the context and hence the task, irreversible exploitation of resources and cosmetic (not sufficient) character of transformation. The proposals end up as results of not enough understood hypes. Ultimate generators of opportunism. Sometimes it is the specific program that seems to be needed, sometimes the infrastructure. A sort of aspirin like intervention, it helps but doesn’t cure. Or, the interventions often irreversibly use the vital resources (such as the city owned land) making the regeneration significant but incapable of adapting to the demands of the future. A sort of a last bet strategy. Exploit Local: City Is A Creator Every serious attempt to regenerate and enhance European city space today must acknowledge its complexity as a whole. Even more, it must use it as the key value generator. The ultimate source of new ideas! All elements of a city must be inspired to participate in the regeneration. There should be no forgotten areas regardless their size and position. Also, no excluded or hidden inhabitants and communities. Everybody must be inspired to join and even more importantly to - contribute any major regeneration process. Yes, we live in a postindustrial condition. The creative class is rising. However, the concepts for regeneration must not only be about recognising and dragging (attracting) the new class into a city. They should also make conditions in which it could be generated from the local condition, existing population. Cities must become creators of the creative class! The Global Context The context we must ultimately take into account is global. The rise of new societies and their economies pushes for an extreme openness and competition. The new players employ all their assets.

They transform all aspects of their societies: social, economical, political and – spatial. Three hundred million Chinese will move to the cities in the coming 30 years. Completely new cities are being and will be built. The existing ones extended and fundamentally changed. Similar urbanization levels are expected in other rising economies. The cities are seen as the generators of goods and ideas. They are already operate as the engines of growth. There is no one who could say now how the cities in the nearby future will eventually look like and operate. This is an experiment, and it is global. No one is spared from it. Everybody must participate. Eventually, if the process saved from cataclysmic events, there will indeed be one system for all. The rudimentary phase of the globalization will move to a more regulated version. Also in space - one big room for all. No exclusive clubs to pillow the reality. The key to succeed is the ability to accept new reality, change and adapt. New European City From all points of view the theme of the urban development in the developing world is a clear one. It is about facilitating and enhancing growth of cities, decreasing poverty, raising standards, establishing rules and so on. It is simply making things better. What about the West? Here everything is already OK. Almost no poverty, standards are high, rules are operational. There is hardly any growth of cities. Actually, they often suffer serious decline. The Globalization will and already is further challenging the situation. The immediate reading (one without a creative effort) could be that the people might become significantly more poor. Hence is the process of Globalization relatively easy to read as a threat. Easy to turn into conservative and discriminatory policies. As a result, serious disruptions, possibly cataclysmic ones could follow. So, the focus should be also on the West. It must be proven possible to benefit from Globalization there too. The concepts which to create capacity of the Western societies to adapt, absorb and benefit from the globalization must be developed. They are largely in the areas of the economical and political domains, but also in terms of social policies. Free movement, free trade, open job markets will tremendously reflect on the spatial development. The ultimate question becomes: can a global city find its place inside of a European one?

hopless city space for hope city space of the future

Eura-ring Lille: City after Euralille

51


Space For The Future European city needs a concept for a substantial transformation that would give it back the leading role in spatial development. Beyond banal attraction of open air museums. Lasting vitality beyond timely urban planning hypes. Functional and challenging. Comfortable and surprising. Attractive but asking for the active participation. The space in the city which to enable the transformation must be discovered. Inspiring active participation of all levels of the society. Optimistic and inclusive. Able to anticipate the change. Open to the future. Open to the World. Space of hope. Two processes seem to be crucial in the pursue of such a space. Search for the types of spatial preconceptions We should embrace the prejudicial character of large portion of European societies and use it to guide the conceptualization of a variety of different spatial conditions: safest neighborhood, cleanest community, children friendliest area, perfect mix, lively, arty, white, black…. In order to make these spatial conditions easier to perceive and market, we should condense and purify them to iconic levels. Theme parks for caprice and prejudice! European type Celebrations! Purity, rigid selection of ambient! What is not pure does not belong. Comfortable life. Poundbury as a European version of Amish community. Stage society! We should finally start appreciating people who are ready to live in museums. There are many of them. Ready to be exhibited! Frozen happiness! We should exclude all inappropriate city spaces that might surround them, by means of condensation and purification, also appropriate mix use (appropriate is very important aspect). Hopeless city space for the hope Simultaneously, we should focus on the residue space created by the previous process. All the space secretly disgusted for being contaminated with impurity and lack of all or some crucial values. Free from any expectations! Confusing. Dangerous. Strangely enough, not fenced off yet (or are fences in Europe somewhat different). Easy to turn the back on. Easy to forget. Left alone. Free! This is exactly the space we both need and can still find in Europe. It is actually the space that is being created by the growing elitism (driven by a massive denial of the reality, what else?) inside and global pressures outside of Europe. What D. Sudjic calls “space for expansion” (in regard to London Thames Gateway) referring mostly to its redundant industrial past, should get explained as a multifold phenomenon deeply embedded in many levels of the European context. Role of the new space This space could be open for experimental spatial organization that would aim for creating inspiring environments for creating ideas and knowledge, intensive exchange of experience. Not only via institutions, but simply via a new spirit of optimism and feeling of belonging to the whole world. It should integrate communities not by assimilating but by respecting and learning from them. It

52

The Berlage Institute Research Report 2009/2010


should be inviting people with ideas, not afraid of challenge. Today Today, this space is inhabited with immigrants, students, artists and other outsiders. The key change from what it used to be before is that it has lost its previous role of the waiting room where the outsiders wait before joining the club of the established and assimilated. It is widely, though still quietly understood as hopeless. It is also very well hidden. Partly because it is formalized according to the acceptable European city looks (no minarets referendums). Emerging value Meantime this redundant space acquires its own character and values. Lack of formal clarity frees the space from any expectations and opens it up for creative assertions. It becomes a fair ground for invention. It challenges bright minds. Demands and triggers imagination. It acquires a unique identity. All these values and opportunities are ignored by political and (for a great deal) intellectual elites. They are unable to see and exploit the potential of this space outside of the existing developer’s agendas. Exodus from the city centres and simplified concepts for their regeneration both contribute to the growing conviction about irreversibility of the damage done. This is the space everybody thinks is to wait forever. Nineteen century buildings in a mishmash with social housing from 70’s (half or completely privatized), bits and pieces of the industrial past and office buildings of the end of twentieth century. Sometime ago a typical waiting land. Today quietly deemed incurable. The price of regeneration will never pay off while there are hardly any other ways for evaluation. It is the space under the death sentence that will never be executed. The reasons are however not ethical but purely practical. Even speculative concepts made for promotional purposes are not believable anymore. Political campaigners find it more effective to communicate ideas about new stadiums, shopping malls and Olympic assets than regeneration of these areas. There are also not enough artists and gays to start up the bottom up recovery. However the values of this space are definitely recognized by the communities that inhabit it and by the globalization in general. They might not like it but they understand its purpose. They are the only ones with both whish and ideas how to change it to better. One should start thinking of the recovery of a city by not asking for more than that. At least at the beginning. Contradictory enough, exactly the belief in the permanently lost value of this kind of spaces makes them suitable to possibly escape established planning dogmas and trigger alternatives. Hopelessness as a resource! This is the type of space we should be looking for!

Iiiii. message 1: embrace the world (the global heart of lille)

148

The Berlage Institute Research Report 2009/2010


Seductive Globalization The proposal aims at tackling the globalization from its seductive end - cheap price of the built structure. The concept is an experiment where the price of the built square meter becomes the average global price, resulting in one third of the local one. Instead of building more in order to exploit the market demand (inevitable developer’s reaction), this sudden opportunity is actually used to increase quality and diversity in order to alter the retrograde processes in the development of the city. Fear Is The Enemy The western societies have a very contradictory understanding of the globalization. They embrace its cheap products which dominate various levels of the western consumerist life style. At the same time, same societies are afraid of the globalization process as such. This fear creates opportunities for irrational conclusions. The globalization is often seen as a threat to the western life style. A number of discriminatory political agendas are already using this argument to successfully increase their participation in political life of many European states. The Future Is Bright Larger house, more open private space, more green space, various cultural programs, good quality safe public space and preserved (reused) heritage buildings are proposed. Together with the urban density and existing advantages of the city life like sufficient social infrastructure, proximity to cultural and shopping facilities and good coverage of the public transport the concept proposed offers a very attractive city space that could possibly reverse some of the spatial trends draining the life outside of cities. The exodus of young families to suburbia is stopped. Professionals are tempted to stay living in the city. Start up companies find it more attractive to operate from in the urban environment, better connected, more opportunities for getting profitable clients, more accessible, cheaper to run. Immigrant communities enrich the ambient adding vital elements of their culture which in return makes them finally feel at home. Eventually, the message of openness is sent. Inclusion and optimism! The place for all! Challenging but rewarding! The image of the globalization is changed. We are looking into our bright future!

228

The Berlage Institute Research Report 2009/2010


Mighty Lillians They proposal postulates conditions where what is widely defined as the creative class, becomes the reinventor of the city. It’s participation in the process of city transformation becomes beneficial for both, the city and the new class. The aim is to reverse the drainage of the vital parts of the population outside of the city. For The City The creative class brought up by the postindustrial condition holds a significant but latent potential for the improvement of the city space. This potential is often understood in a very simplified way, through a relatively high purchasing power of the new class. This simplification, downgrading towards statistical figures, together with a lack of initiatives within the city planning agendas to create more attractive living and working conditions for in the city centre, all too often pushes the creative class outside of the central parts of cities. While suburbia seems to be the inevitable choice, the city centres are continuously missing opportunities to engage the new class as the key agent for the regeneration. Everybody Wins The new inhabitants are encouraged to stay in the city by being given incentives such as free ground, free modules of basic structure, free existing old buildings, which together with standard advantages of the life in city centres (sufficient social infrastructure, good public transport coverage, cultural and leisure activities) form ultimately attractive situations for life and work of variety of inhabitants. In return, the new inhabitants are asked to contribute to this process with not more than creating their own conditions for living and working. The process is helped with sets of development rules which secure the urban character of the development without decreasing the creative process. The city benefits from having held the new inhabitants in its central areas in many more ways than just providing new high quality consumers. It engages their creative energy and imagination as the key providers of ideas for the substantial improvement of the area. This has a snowball effect on the adjacent sites and eventually leads to a completely changed image and improved identity for wider area and eventually the whole city. The ideas dwell on the investigation in already existing strategies in several cities in Europe. Those are improved by the addition of design guidelines aiming at inspiring more creativity, hence resulting in a richer variety of urban conditions.
