We will be considering the site, and the designed response to site, as a complex and dynamic set of material and phenomenological relationships continually constructed and destroyed through time. The brief is to design a landscape pavilion, and in part, the outcome will be to define what a landscape pavilion may be as determined by an examination of your own work. There is an avalanche of pavilion precedents that we can interrogate in order to assist us to understand what a pavilion may be, and how we might explore it materially. The approach was through a rigorous process of making that includes scale + scaleless models, 1:1 prototypes to be tested on site, and drawing.

http://cargocollective.com/outr/following/outr/changzhou-stadium-tower Tue, 20 Sep 2011 05:40:08 +0000 OUTR 2027636 Conceptual Design, Changzhou, CHINA. The design proposal operates through the multiple scales of the site and local neighbourhood to celebrate and amplify its qualities, whilst simultaneously creating a unique iconic focus. Viewed from a distance, the iconic strength is derived from the single clean gesture of the skyward projection of the vertical tower. The tower affords privileged unobstructed views into, and across, the entertainment city block from its residences and into the city of Changzhou. In contrast, the horizontal tower addresses the local street corner and the scale of the existing urban fabric. The resulting composition of the two towers choreographs multiple shifting iconic readings through various scales. In this manner the design is able to visually connect with the entertainment precinct - which contains a collection of other singular buildings such as the stadium, and the exhibition building - and the street’s surrounding mid-rise neighbourhood. The third compositional element of the design is the commercial component that stiches the towers together, and draws people diagonally though the site connecting the residential areas with the entertainment, education, and commercial districts both of the site and its surrounds. The design proposal is the final piece in the puzzle that creates an iconic focus for the entertainment district, whilst bridging the various scales and programs of the neighbourhood, to simultaneously create, maximise and amplify retail, commercial and residential opportunities.

URBAN Reality URBAN Landscape URBAN Strategies URBAN Transformations URBAN Interventions URBAN Environments URBAN Cities Development occurs in a state of flux and we must learn to design and construct an urban environment that embraces continual transition. Temporary use is the opposite of the masterplan: it starts out from context and the current condition, not from a distant goal; it seeks to use what already exists rather than inventing everything anew; it is concerned with small places and brief spans of time as well as the conditions at various points in time. Temporary uses are symptoms of an alternative understanding to urban planning, rather than leaving development to government and the economy alone, they explore an appropriation of the city.* Temporary urban landscapes therefore offer a unique opportunity for design events of limited life to exist, injecting the urban environment with playfulness, imagining possible futures that are experiential and adaptive. The challenge aims to bring together creative minds both nationally and internationally to compete in an action packed and hands on design competition that responds to this year’s State of Design festival theme “design that moves.” Participants will establish teams, live on location and be given a site, a brief, and a budget to create their public space project. Each team will be given exactly 3 days to complete the task required. Mini challenges awarding bonus prizes and giving individual teams the chance to earn bonus time, bonus materials and helping hands will be offered along the way giving teams the opportunity to step up the competition. * Haydn, Florian and Temel, Robert, 2006, Temporary urban Spaces, birkhauser, Basel Switzerland <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1710171/UR PUBLIC book final-cover.jpg" border="0" width="640" height="454" width_o="640" height_o="454" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1710171/UR PUBLIC book final-cover_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1710171/UR PUBLIC book final-2.jpg" border="0" width="640" height="454" width_o="640" height_o="454" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1710171/UR PUBLIC book final-2_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1710171/UR PUBLIC book final-3.jpg" border="0" width="640" height="454" width_o="640" height_o="454" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1710171/UR PUBLIC book final-3_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1710171/UR PUBLIC book final-4.jpg" border="0" width="640" height="454" width_o="640" height_o="454" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1710171/UR PUBLIC book final-4_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1710171/UR PUBLIC book final-5.jpg" border="0" width="640" height="454" width_o="640" height_o="454" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1710171/UR PUBLIC book final-5_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1710171/UR PUBLIC book final-7.jpg" border="0" width="640" height="454" width_o="640" height_o="454" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1710171/UR PUBLIC book final-7_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1710171/UR participant book final-12.jpg" border="0" width="640" height="454" width_o="640" height_o="454" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1710171/UR participant book final-12_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1710171/UR participant book final-13.jpg" border="0" width="640" height="454" width_o="640" height_o="454" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1710171/UR participant book final-13_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1710171/UR participant book final-14.jpg" border="0" width="640" height="454" width_o="640" height_o="454" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1710171/UR participant book final-14_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1710171/UR participant book final-15.jpg" border="0" width="640" height="454" width_o="640" height_o="454" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1710171/UR participant book final-15_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1710171/UR PUBLIC book final-9.jpg" border="0" width="640" height="454" width_o="640" height_o="454" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1710171/UR PUBLIC book final-9_o.jpg" align="left" /> Urban Realities has a number of online media.

Extract of introduction by: Rosalea Monacella and SueAnne Ware Fluctuating Borders is a publication which re-considers the possibilities for international borders. In this volume designers and theorists from multiple but cognate disciplines such as Planning, Architecture, Landscape Architecture, Urban Design and the Visual Arts have reflected on and critiqued notions of memory, Fluctuation and emergence. This publication begins with examining how Mexico, America and Australia are conceptualised not just in terms of how border spaces are remembered but how they are represented and organised. These countries share a common thread – a colonial past. Australia and America are a part of the Western world, and are regarded as developed nations. Mexico, on the other hand, is positioned on the fringes of the Western world and is commonly understood as a developing nation. Our investigation, here, aims at interrogating and confusing, theoretically and practically, the polarised structure and rigidity of these territorial and national representations by forming connections along lines of difference thus discovering how the outside can be implicated in the inside. Extending the complexity involved in border conditions to other parts of the world, we have also included one example from Israel as expressive of another voice in conundrum. We acknowledge that the material presented in this publication is only a beginning, but nonetheless felt compelled to publish it now to contribute to this on-going dialogue about the possibilities of international borders. <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1388240/fluctuating borders 00_640.jpg" border="0" width="640" height="400" width_o="800" height_o="500" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1388240/fluctuating borders 00_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1388240/Pages from FLUX - DRAFT10x-3_640.jpg" border="0" width="640" height="400" width_o="800" height_o="500" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1388240/Pages from FLUX - DRAFT10x-3_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1388240/Pages from FLUX - DRAFT10x-2_640.jpg" border="0" width="640" height="400" width_o="800" height_o="500" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1388240/Pages from FLUX - DRAFT10x-2_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1388240/Pages from FLUX - DRAFT10x-5_640.jpg" border="0" width="640" height="400" width_o="800" height_o="500" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1388240/Pages from FLUX - DRAFT10x-5_o.jpg" align="left" /> Extra links: http://cargocollective.com/outr/mapping-lake-eyre http://cargocollective.com/outr/following/outr/mapping-lake-eyre Sun, 22 May 2011 11:25:29 +0000 OUTR 1480744 Lake Eyre is the largest ephemeral lake in the world. It is a pluvial lake that experiences significant increase in depth and extent as a result of increased precipitation and reduced evaporation. It exists within the Lake Eyre Basin which is a drainage basin that covers one-sixth of all Australia. It is one of the largest internal drainage systems on Earth, and covers 1,140,000 square kilometers. At 15m below sea level, it is the lowest point in Australia, and on the rare occasion that it fills, it is the largest lake in Australia. This coupled with the fact that the basin is an endorhic one that does not allow outflow to other bodies of water such as rivers or oceans exemplifies the landscape as a dynamic medium in a constant state of flux. The project looks at the life of the lake from the point of view of the landscape as a shifting, living, material phenomenon, and a re-mapping of it. This is explored through mappings, drawings, aerial photography, and models that explore a meaning for the landscape that suggest both landscapes and the way we construct them through representation are constantly evolving. Particular to this research of re-making the landscape through representation will be the employment of the various territorial scanning devices and rapid-prototyping technologies that interrogate the nexus between physical and virtual modeling.

It considers site as a game board, a set of complex systems and operations from which a design emerges, plugs in, responds and reconfigures. The studio is intended to respond to the challenges of a complex rapidly changing world through innovative design at the juncture of the urban and natural environments. We will explore how we might design UP from the landscape that includes a deep knowledge of systems and relationships that is the non static data field of landscape architecture. Redundant and out-moded industrial city waterfronts are the new territory for the renewal and expansion of cities around the world, this studio is to respond to the Second Decade of the Melbourne Docklands objectives, www.docklandsseconddecade.com. We will explore emerging opportunities and necessities in the Melbourne Docklands, and will act as a think tank for new ideas and solutions to urban waterfront environments.This will include examining convergent issues that will define and articulate key design led solutions needed to enable a highly mobile, efficient and sustainable living environment for a rapidly changing population demographic in the Melbourne Docklands The work below is from the students Sam Conkie, Louis Naimo and Tech Ooi with their project 'Social Condenser'. <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1111024/game on 5_640.jpg" border="0" width="640" height="400" width_o="800" height_o="500" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1111024/game on 5_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1111024/game on 7_640.jpg" border="0" width="640" height="400" width_o="800" height_o="500" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1111024/game on 7_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1111024/game on 9_640.jpg" border="0" width="640" height="400" width_o="800" height_o="500" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1111024/game on 9_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1111024/game on 8_640.jpg" border="0" width="640" height="400" width_o="800" height_o="500" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1111024/game on 8_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1111024/game on 4_640.jpg" border="0" width="640" height="400" width_o="800" height_o="500" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1111024/game on 4_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1111024/game on 3_640.jpg" border="0" width="640" height="400" width_o="800" height_o="500" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1111024/game on 3_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1111024/game on 10_640.jpg" border="0" width="640" height="400" width_o="800" height_o="500" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1111024/game on 10_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1111024/game on 1_640.jpg" border="0" width="640" height="400" width_o="800" height_o="500" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1111024/game on 1_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1111024/game on 2_640.jpg" border="0" width="640" height="400" width_o="800" height_o="500" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1111024/game on 2_o.jpg" align="left" /> http://cargocollective.com/outr/urban-dating http://cargocollective.com/outr/following/outr/urban-dating Fri, 18 Feb 2011 06:05:45 +0000 OUTR 1073694 Design Research Proposal, GLOBAL. OUTR is currently working on a research proposal called ‘Urban Dating’. The project will co-ordinated by Karres en Brands, Hilversum, NL, in collaboration with OUTR, Melbourne, AU, BRUT, Brussels, BE, and MandaWorks, Malmö, SE. In the future, land development will result from mixes of parties in coalitions. Future work in this area is to focus on adaptations to the existing city. This will change the nature of urban design, to a profession without a set programs and one that is a component of flexible coalitions, intelligent strategies and adaptive systems. These new challenges may bring with them risks of error, but also the possibility to learn and innovate. The forming of coalitions is difficult, the limitations and the opportunities of (inner) city locations can be overlooked, and assessments are often poorly translated into viable and fi nancially feasible intervention models. Urban Dating explores the process of networking and coalition forming through the examination of various dating and match making sites. It aims to setup modelling processes where the matchmaking of stakeholders & landscape, economic & political systems are made in a less formal and more convivial atmosphere where jointly supported and adapatitive conditions for a project can be explored and formulated. OUTR's Rosalea Monacella will be running an intensive 2 week upper pool studio in collaboration with Karres en Brands Landscape Architects, The Netherlands. The Studio will run from 10am – 4pm in weeks 13 & 14 of June, 2011. <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1073694/Urban Dating_Image 001_640.jpg" border="0" width="640" height="400" width_o="800" height_o="500" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/1073694/Urban Dating_Image 001_o.jpg" align="left" /> Image: Madelon Vriesendorp, Après l'amour, c.1976.

As such the intelligence of the sculpture that was created through the careful articulation to maximise the potential of the sun has been employed in the building prototype to maximise natural light, generate solar power through the maximised surface structure, and efficiently utilise thermal loads. The spatial intersection of the two articulated volumes serves to create complex public and private occupation interfaces, for a range of program types. <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/834944/Aerial day ALL_640.jpg" border="0" width="640" height="400" width_o="800" height_o="500" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/834944/Aerial day ALL_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/834944/Aerial Night_640.jpg" border="0" width="640" height="400" width_o="800" height_o="500" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/834944/Aerial Night_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/834944/Street view All day_640.jpg" border="0" width="640" height="400" width_o="800" height_o="500" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/834944/Street view All day_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/834944/street night All_640.jpg" border="0" width="640" height="400" width_o="800" height_o="500" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/834944/street night All_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/834944/Artrium day ALL_640.jpg" border="0" width="640" height="400" width_o="800" height_o="500" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/834944/Artrium day ALL_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/834944/Atrium night view All_640.jpg" border="0" width="640" height="400" width_o="800" height_o="500" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/834944/Atrium night view All_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/834944/Office view All day_640.jpg" border="0" width="640" height="400" width_o="800" height_o="500" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/834944/Office view All day_o.jpg" align="left" /> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/834944/sol.ARGE diagram_640.jpg" border="0" width="640" height="400" width_o="800" height_o="500" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/39530/834944/sol.ARGE diagram_o.jpg" align="left" /> $(document).ready(function() {$("#qtPoster").click(function(){var replaceHtml = $("#qt").html();$("#poster").html(replaceHtml);return false;});});<img id="qtPoster" src="http://files.outrorg@outr.org/Sol.ARGE/Sol.ARGE place.jpg" width="820" height="620" /> File size: 6mb Running time: 32sec quicktime H.264
