tolyatti today: rapid renovation – aging modernism

https://agingmodernism.wordpress.com/2010/10/02/tolyatti-today-rapid-renovation

Big ideas in architecture and the effects of user adaptation. Tolyatti today: rapid renovation. As I attempted to follow the bus’s route on the map, I discovered the benefit of a unique feature of the map: building footprints. Without street signs and major landmarks, navigation is most easily achieved by following the building form and arrangement as you zoom past on the street! The apartment buildings along the east west axis of the old city (like many others I have seen! October 2, 2010. Melissa Smith...

remembrance from russia – aging modernism

https://agingmodernism.wordpress.com/2010/09/24/remembrance-from-russia

Big ideas in architecture and the effects of user adaptation. Who knew that updating a blog could be so difficult? So I have made a mid-trip resolution that I believe my aunt once told me with reference to scrapbooking: never try to catch up! While I move I will revisit a sampling of my experiences in Europe, and you’ll have to be satisfied with that much until I come back with more detail in the near future. The Netherlands are completely planned. Little is left to the average person, and urban desi...

project – aging modernism

https://agingmodernism.wordpress.com/project

Big ideas in architecture and the effects of user adaptation. Now these cogent projects are aging, which has introduced multiple intentions that break apart the unified schemes, making them disorganized, messy. As time passes, stakes shift. Programs change, redundancies develop and the logic of the plan fades. Modernism has become the site within which contingency operates. The question is no longer did it succeed or fail? But instead how has it been altered? 5 thoughts on “ project. I have a foundatio c...

monuments melt into city – aging modernism

https://agingmodernism.wordpress.com/2011/01/06/monuments-melt-into-city

Big ideas in architecture and the effects of user adaptation. Monuments melt into city. A constant phrase in my head while I visited the city was Norma Evenson’s “Chandigarh is a city of monuments, but in Brasilia, the city is a monument.” This was why it didn’t work; why Chandigarh lives and thrives while Brasilia suffers under the ever increasing weight of its newcomers. I traversed the entire length of the city from south to north with hardly the feeling I was inhabiting a monument. January 6, 2011.

tel aviv-jaffa – aging modernism

https://agingmodernism.wordpress.com/tel-aviv-yafo

Big ideas in architecture and the effects of user adaptation. Tel Aviv Jaffa presents a context in which the conflict between presence and history is sustained, and ahistorical claims are continuously in question. Born as a suburb of the Arab city of Jaffa, Tel Aviv soon grew into a major urban center for Israel, consuming the original city and extending beyond its borders. Now it is politically and economically bound to the metropolitan agglomeration. Re-Urbanism: Transforming Capitals, Pespecta. Notify...

chandigarh – aging modernism

https://agingmodernism.wordpress.com/chandigarh

Big ideas in architecture and the effects of user adaptation. As one of the late modernist cities, Chandigarh was built to export a fresh national image, dissociated from the recent violence of the Indian Partition. In this case, the structure of modernism attempted to both create the image of an energetic, youthful nation on the path to prominence and clean up the messy remains of the violent struggle at this nation’s birth. For posts on my findings in Chandigarh. 4 thoughts on “ chandigarh. SCI-ARC dur...
