The setting is Trondheim, specifically a rather run-down area called Svartlamoen that started life in the nineteenth century as an outlying working class neighborhood. It was rezoned for industrial use in 1947 but these plans came to naught thanks to fierce local resistance. Svartlamoen degenerated steadily until the 1970s when the citys alternative population (then mostly punks, today largely middle-class anarchists and the occasional fortune-teller) gradually began to appropriate some of the forty or so remaining buildings. Trondheim only recently embraced this development, and in 2001 all plans for industrial development in Svartlamoen were scrapped and the area was rezoned for residential use, under a new designation as a semi-autonomous urban ecological experimental area. All city-owned property in the area was also transferred to a foundation. During this transformation period, an open competition for a new residential building was held. The drafting of the new zoning law, the competition brief and the jury included the participation of representatives from the local community. On April 1, 2005 the project was inaugurated and 31 peoplewho had participated in the planning processmoved into the two wooden buildings. The taller building facing Strandveien contains a commercial space and four flats, each shared by a collective of five to six people. The smaller building contains six one-room flats. The high residential density of the building, 22 m2 per person, is in sharp contrast to the otherwise expansive needs of Norwegians (at 50 m2 per capita, the most generous in the world). The projects density, construction technique and rough detailing (finishing) account for the low cost of the building: at 1.8 million euros with a monthly rent of 350 euros these figures fall well below average Norwegian market values.

47

All structural members in this project are factory-produced, untreated massive timber elements that are assembled on site over ten days. Only the exterior wall elements (144 mm thick) are load bearing, providing a column-free space at each story.The interior partitions are almost as thick: 96 mm.

48

The partitions create a rough interior where the occupants own furnishings and equipment can be bolted directly to the walls. Additional fine-tuning and customizing of the walls can easily be done with a chain saw or sand paper. This makes for a high grade of flexibility in terms of changes to the program in years to come. The wooden elements are a reusable, renewable, clean and locally-cultivated resource with a positive impact on the carbon dioxide balance in the atmosphere, as carbon is stored in the construction. The taller building of the two is the first of its kind in Norway; the extensive research and development done by the architects and consultants, in collaboration with researchers in Norway, Sweden and Austria, will hopefully help pave the way for the reintroduction of large wooden buildings into urban areas. Large wooden buildings can now fulfill modern fire safety and sound insulation requirements with reasonable budgets.

These ten houses are part of a masterplan for 500 dwellings and a park by the Architecten Cie, called Het Funen, Hidden Delights. The triangular site is located between the historic center and the recently redeveloped harbor area in the east of Amsterdam. Along the east and the south side a wall containing over 300 apartments and office spaces shields the site from the noise of the adjacent railroad. Inside this semi open block a loose grid is set up, containing 16 smaller housing blocks positioned in a park. These Hidden Delights vary in height from 9 to 18 meters. A shift from the public to the private has taken place. The urban plan including the park is initiated and commissionedtraditionally operations directed by the Cityand developed and built by one single company, IBC Vastgoed. The maintenance of the park will be handled by a private firm, not by the city, but the park will remain publicly accessible. There are three almost square blocks that measure 30.5 by 27.7 meters and should contain 2.5 stories. It was obligatory to build the first two stories in alignment; the third should be 50% building and 50% roof terrace/garden. In block K the volume is distributed evenly over the ten houses; each is allocated 633 cubic meters. The houses are organized according to a typology known as back to back housing, and they are accessed from an aisle in the middle of the block. This mini-canyon rids the faades of the obligatory technical facilities that formally have to be accessible from the public domain.

Antoine van Erp

The front doors are positioned in the back; the houses are turned inside out. By placing the intestines like water and gas meters, hallways and stairs in the darker zones of the apartments, the faades can open up to the light and to the view, to where the park is. Three other buildings with a slightly smaller footprint, but considerably higher (18m), rise up next to block K. By interpreting the given 2.5 floors as 2 + story as in Being John Malkovich, a clean start without formal determination could be made; a block of 6 + 1.5 = 7.5 meters high. To create space within the masterplan this volume is deformed and redistributed, pushed away as much as possible from the adjacent volumes. Within the orthogonal grid a diagonal vista opens up. The design tool deployed for this operation is a slight rotation of the aisle, orienting it onto two open spaces between the blocksand as such providing a public shortcutinstead of two blind walls. While all houses are at the same time stretched and compressed, either in height or in length, they still maintain the original given volume of 633 m. Although some features of the typology remain, all houses are individual and unique reaching from one-and-a-half to four stories, from 120 to 160m2. All houses are different but part of a larger whole; they are one. The building height now varies from 5 to 15 meters, but overall the average is still the required 7.5 meters. In the process the standard building bay as an organizational tool of construction became elastic.

1. Given envelope = 2 + Stories: The first two stories should be in alignment (100 %), the third with a setback: 50 % building + 50 % roofgarden. Average building height = 7,5 meters. Total volume = 6336 m3.

2. Back to Back: Conventional building technique: 10 ground related identical houses.

3. Being John Malkovich: Re-interpretation of given envelope: 2 stories (100 % roof garden): a block waiting to be touched.

54

4. Alley: The obligatory storage spaces, technical facilities and hallways are absorbed in and accessed from the center of the block: the faades open up to the light and the park.

Shortcut

Shortcut
5. Shortcut: By orienting the alley towards two open spaces instead of two blind walls an attractive shortcut is created. This line forms the spine of the volumes deformation: northwest and southeast corners rise whereas northeast and southwest corners are lowered. The typology becomes elastic, a range from 1 to 4 stories. The average building height remains 7,5 meters.

6. Flex: Strategically positioning the volume towards the sun results in a lower south and higher north section.

Vista

7. Vista: The deformation as a consequence of the diagonal shortcut creates a void in the otherwise dense master plan.

8. Elastic Building Bay: The block is divided up into ten houses with equal volume (633 m3) but different floor areas. The houses on the north and south sides get daylight from two sides. Whereas the six in the middle depend on only one faade (and the patio). The extra width is a positive side effect of the equation. 55

This building of rental apartments is composed of fifteen units that vary in size from 25 to 30 m2. Contrary to conventional approaches, which compress the support program, such as bathrooms or kitchens, into a minimum footprint, this project rethinks that strategy. Filling the maximum allowable footprint and volume permitted by law, the apartment building is set on a regular 9.6 x 26 meter plan. The basic apartment is composed of bedroom, bathroom, and kitchen, where the support program spaces of kitchen and bath are comparable in size to living room or bedroom spaces. This allows for functions to be distributed across the spaces, moving beyond a single studio-like living space where all activity occurs. In a large one-room apartment, residents' belongings are mixed and scattered. In the Funabashi apartments, belongings can be thematically arranged: washing machine and plants are located in the bathroom; clothes and comics in the bedroom; table and dishes for the kitchen.

Although the adjoining southern site is currently vacant, windows for natural daylight and ventilation were provided at all sides, considering the neighboring properties expected to be developed in the future. By aligning broad openings between spaces, light penetrates each unit, while privacy will be kept between the segments. There is a blend of units created by various combinations of spaces of different sizes and characters. Unlike the traditional one-room condominium that minimizes the space for kitchen and bathroom, maximizing the living room, the intention is to offer spacious and comfortable kitchens, baths, and bedrooms. Here, residents can find alternate uses for each space. The bathroom for instance can become a place to store and enjoy music or to grow indoor plants.

The doorways between rooms are wider than standard and have different treatments based on program adjacencies. For instance, the kitchen floor is flush with that of the living room in order to withstand and soften the high traffic between these two areas. In the case of a kitchen+bathroom or kitchen+bedroom combination, residents must cross an elevated threshold.

By splitting the whole volumes into some wings, this collective housing building has succeeded to give the residents to have independent views like as a private house in the woods. Every window is facing to the forest, and the balconies are hanging in the trees.

This is the first completed block of a project of three. The housing units are raised nearly two stories above ground, supported by thin columns that ensure that every room has a view to the woods. At either end, the volume is fragmented and transformed by means of suspended wooden balconies, cornered roof gardens or an inset roof terrace. The ground floor is used for garages and covered outdoor parking spaces. The first floor is occupied by private storage rooms that serve the apartments above.

Program/densification: Three blocks with a maximum of 4 levels containing 48 houses on a minimal footprint.

Noise: One volume is rotated away from a neighboring tennis club. A raised verge or berm formed from the excavated ground, and vegetation function as an acoustic buffer.

Views: The star composition maximizes the view to the green surroundings, without the interruption of the other volumes.

Infrastructure: Reduction of the impact of parking and traffic on the use of open space by rotating the volume.

Orientation: One volume has an east-west orientation; the other two have an approximate north-south orientation. North-facing apartments have a cantilevered living room or terrace.

Refinement: The volumes are fragmented and curved at the staircase, offering a view to the surroundings. This fragmentation reduces the scale of the buildings and seeks a sensitive integration on the site. Living in the woods in the pure sense.

The building is divided into two wings, each with two apartments per floor (with two, three or four bedrooms). Every room faces the forest, and every living room has a balcony or a terrace (big, small, hanging or inset). The ground floor is used for car and bicycle parking.

The Mountain Dwellings are a second generation of VM Houses (see pages 268-275)same client, same size and same street. However, the brief here is divided into 2/3 parking and 1/3 living spaces. Rather than creating two separate buildingsa parking deck and a housing blockthe two programs are merged into a symbiotic relationship. The parking wants to be connected to the street, whereas the housing wants sunlight, fresh air and views. The Mountain Dwellings appear as a suburban neighborhood of sun-facing garden homes flowing over a ten-story buildingsuburban living with urban density.

2. It is 8000 m2, for a building surface of 30.000m2.

The residents of the 80 apartments were the first in Orestaden to have parking directly outside their homes. The gigantic parking area contains 480 parking spots and a sloping elevator that moves along the mountains inner walls. In some places the ceiling height is up to 16 meters which gives the impression of a cathedral-like space.

The north and west facades are covered by perforated aluminum plates, which let in air and light to the parking area. The holes in the facade form a huge reproduction of Mount Everest. At day the holes in the aluminum plates will appear black on the bright aluminium, and the gigantic picture will resemble that of a rough rasterized photo. At night time the faade will be lit from the inside and appear as a photo negative in different colours as each floor in the parking area has different colours.

Each side of the building is provided with a 1.5 m wide terrace along the full faade that can accommodate different functions during certain seasons.These terraces are enclosed with bamboo louvers mounted on folding frames that provide with the necessary protection from the strong east-west sun exposure, provide security to the units and open entirely to the side gardens when desired.

The P10 mixed-use building houses offices, commercial showrooms, apartments, a public garage and a small archaeological museum devoted to the Diocletian Aqueduct that runs through the site. This area was part of an ambitious and romantic postwar study by Berislav Kalodjera that proposed a connective sequence of open public spaces from south to the north of the Split peninsula. The site has since then been regarded as a void operating as a narthex to the sport campus on the north. The projects competition entry proposed a new typology for the site that follows the pulsating rhythm of slabs and towers within Splits ring. The design combines four towers (apartments and offices) that rise up from a retail spiral slab that echoes the romantic idea of the sequence of public spaces by incorporating an internal public route and introducing a series of Mediterranean gardens.

Contextual map based on mid 20th century study by Berislav Kalodjera, which connected the sides of the Split peninsula via a series of Mediterranean streets and piazzas.

The base volume of lower spiral (ground floor and the first floor) is occupied by public spaces, gardens, commercial spaces and offices. The roof is covered by concrete mosaic tiles only visible from the apartments, which is simulating a garden illusion with fake dark shadow as urban lichen. The garage has color coding system: Lower ground floor red as continuum of the ground floors public realm, blue level with the Diocletians aquaduct, yellow goes well with the black asphalt and white-private garage.

The project refers to some modernist buildings along the ring, a kind of homage to the local master architects: The materials refer to the architect Ivo Radic who used fibre cement sheets to form a Mediterranean, high-tech layered faade produced by a local factory (Salonit). In response to insulation and cost requirements, Eternit fibre-cement sheets were applied here. The color scheme refers to Stanko Fabris, who designed the polychromic towers with a raster faade. The public passage on the ground floor is a homage for Frano Gotovacs huge building called the Chinese wall.

Flexible unit plan scheme: except the structural core and faade, the position of all other elements could be varied with the residents participation during the excecution design phase.

In this second project of social housing in Madrid, the openness of its public space is transformed into more fragmental, functional common spaces (rather than symbolic representation). The porous composition of many small housing blocks creates more local communication between the neighbors like of almost suburban communities, but in 3D volumes of high density.

The faade is made of coated concrete which was from the ground floor up constructed in complete mould system, an efficient and clean way to cast concrete, keeping the construction cost to a minimum; an important asset for this social housing project. The polyurethane coating allows the faade to shimmer and reflect depending on the light condition.

All windows are floor-to-ceiling height and can be shielded from the sun. Each apartment has the possibility of cross ventilation through two or three facades and enjoys views through the building and to the surrounding. A system of power efficient boilers is used in the building; solar panels on the roof heat water reducing energy consumption further. The nearby Mirador building which was completed by MVRDV and Blanca Lle in 2005 also discusses the traditional building block by flipping it vertically. The Celosa building is horizontally arranged around the interior court but opposes the generic introverted architecture in the area by bringing light and communal space into the building.

Common terrace and f-room (foyer): The interior communal terrace is an open space with double height and with free access for all the residents. The flats located alongside this communal terrace have a room known as the f-room (a type of foyer or reception area), with glass walls that offer a view of the interior of the houses. The f-room can be used as an office in the home, as a place to join in leisure activities with other neighbours, or a childrens play area, amongst other things. By visually opening up part of the house, it is possible to create a community, or communication among much more active neighbours than in opaque apartments that are closed off to the rest of the community. The faades of the f-rooms have coloured wooden shutters that can be partially or completely closed as needed.
Example of use of the f-room: office

Communal terrace shared by the residents. Some residents put out tables and chairs at weekends to chat with their neighbours. The views from the communal terraces, an outdoor area within the building. By means of the coloured wooden shutters, the f-rooms can be closed (green at the top) or opened (green at the bottom).

Site plan: There are 2,000 apartments divided into 6 blocks designed by 6 different teams. All of the blocks are connected by wooden platforms on the first level and the S-shaped path on the ground level.

Second floor of block 1 (lower right) and block 2 (upper left, designed by Toyo Ito). In order to harmonize their external appearance, the dimensions, materials and faade designs are coordinated.

This is a high-density urban collective-housing project in Shinonome, Koto ward, Tokyo, with approximately 2,000 units. Six different teams of architects designed six blocks in total. The architects at Riken Yamamoto were responsible for the completion of the first block. Each one of the designers made various proposals based on the theme prospects for urban housing, and developed their designs in coordination with designers of other blocks. The planning of an S-shaped road running through the site, standardizing the maximum height, coordinating the placement of external walls and other rules affecting the overall project were all decided following the design guidelines. However, those guidelines did not hinder the individual architects. The creation of the Urban Development Corporation allowed architects to ascertain common principles, working as a kind of negotiation table. As a result of that cooperative work process, a new model, which exceeded previous frameworks, was proposed. The distinctive features of Block 1 are the common terraces hollowed out of the dwellings, the home office-like f-room, the bright internal corridor and the bath and kitchen unit. A common terrace with a double-story void is located randomly on each floor. The internal corridors, which draw light and ventilation from those terraces, function like exterior spaces. Also, about 60% of the doors facing onto the internal corridors are made of glass. Furthermore, positioning the f-rooms along the corridor creates the opportunity to open residences to the exterior. In doing so, the bath and kitchen unit is consequently placed on the outer wall, increasing the amount of freedom in the interior, and the bathroom becomes like a glazed sunroom. This is an attempt to create a new kind of inner-city collective housing, where work and dwelling can be integrated.

Combinations of varying floor plans (70 different types in total). The passageways are in the middle, but the transparent entrance doors allow them some light. 60% of the apartments have these clear doors, where the atmospheres of the homes merge with the communal areas. The floors are level with the exterior, to enable one to live with or without shoes inside the home (it is common in Japan to not wear shoes inside houses and there is usually a step at the entrance).

Color scheme of the f-rooms. These create depth and character to the faade without breaking the continuity with neighboring blocks.

The typical nLDK residential model of multi-family housing (n number of bedrooms + living room + dining + kitchen) is also applied in the plans of most individual houses and has become almost the sole residential model in Japan. This project provides inner-city rental accommodation as an alternative to that model. It allows not only for the conventional type of family dwelling, but caters also to group homes for the elderly or singles, as well as to people sharing accommodations. When residence = family defines the only conceivable residential unit, there arent many opportunities or reasons to open up dwellings to the outside. In the case of the Shinonome project, opening up to the exterior was necessary in order to allow for diverse lifestyles and uses. For this reason, the areas surrounding the entrance to the apartments had to be made as flexible as possible, freed-up from sanitary facilities and other water-use areas such as the kitchen, which are placed next to the faade, as far as possible from the entrance.

Variations in residence type: the residences are adapted to many types of families and ways of life. An example of this is the home office. The same type of dwelling can even have different partitions to change the layout of rooms according to need. The main rooms can be accessed from the entrance without having to pass through service areas (bathroom, kitchen, etc.), as occurs in traditional flats. Bathrooms are located at the front and receive natural light.

Not only for its huge scale and complex program, this project functions as a city within a city for its integration of diverse spaces. Instead of separating the private apartments in a big mass or higher level of the building, they are distributed to be a gate and structure to connect all the other hybrid program. Thus the whole building becomes a real 3 dimensional city, a place to pass through.

The Linked Hybrid complex counters the current urban developments in China by creating a new porous urban space that promotes interactive relations and encourages encounters in the public spaces that vary from commercial, residential, and educational to recreational. The entire complex is a three-dimensional urban space in which buildings on the ground, under the ground and over the ground are fused together. The ground level offers a number of open passages Linked Hybrid is a pedestrian-oriented combination of public and private space that encourages for residents and visitors alike to walk through. the use of shared resources and reduces the Shops activate the urban space surrounding the need for wasteful modes of transit. The project is an urban oasis, proving that peaceful, green large reflecting pond. On the intermediate level of spaces can exist in a swelling metropolis. the lower buildings, public roof gardens offer tranquil green spaces, and at the top of the eight residential towers private roof gardens are connected to the penthouses. All public functions on the ground levelincluding a restaurant, hotel, Montessori school, kindergarten, and cinemahave connections with the green spaces surrounding and penetrating the project. The elevator displaces like a jump cut to another series of passages on a higher level. From the 12th to the 18th floor, a multi-functional series of skybridges with a swimming pool, a fitness room, a caf, a gallery, auditorium and a mini-salon connects the eight residential towers and the hotel tower, and offers spectacular views over the unfolding city. Programmatically, it is expected that the public sky-loop and the base-loop will constantly generate random relationships. They should function as social condensers, resulting in a special experience of city life for both residents and visitors.

This new vertical urban sector offers individuation in urban living with hundreds of hingedspace apartment layouts that are all designed along the principles of Feng-Shui.

Energy flows: The project features a ground source heat pump system, one of the largest in residential construction. Shouldering 70% of the complexs yearly heating and cooling load, the system is comprised of 660 geothermal wells, 100 m below the basement foundation. These underground wells have taken the place of above-ground space normally needed for cooling towers, increasing available green areas, minimizing noise pollution and significantly reducing the CO2 emissions created by traditional heating/ cooling methods.

The organization of the towers takes into consideration movement, timing and sequence. Rather than towers as isolated objects or private islands in an increasingly privatized city, the hope of a new type of collective 21st century public urban space is inscribed in the air.

The goal of the bridge structural design was to maximize transparency and create floating hallways of light, traversing 30 to 40 m between the heavy concrete towers. In order to span the great distance required and also achieve the utmost transparency, the bridges utilize a pair of parallel steel trusses. A Pratt truss configuration was chosen to use thin tension only diagonal members, oriented in such a fashion that the sizes of the diagonals have equal stresses, hence equal sizes. The connections between vertical and horizontal truss members were made rigid to form a complete three-dimensional rigid Vierendeel frame. This provides additional stiffness and redundancy to the bridge structure and allows for the removal of the center panel diagonal members.
