Book excerpt: Der Neubau des DomAquarées in Berlin-Mitte bildet den Schlussstein zur Wiederbelebung eines der prominentesten und zugleich empfindlichsten Stadträume von Berlin. Er wird im Heiliggeistviertel errichtet. Nördlich vom Marx-Engels-Forum liegt es in unmittelbarer Nachbarschaft des Berliner Doms, der Museumsinsel und des Hackeschen Markts. Im Südwesten grenzt es an den Schlossplatz mit dem Palast der Republik. Bis 2001 stand auf dem Gelände des DomAquarées das legendäre Palast-Hotel. Die Architekten nps tchoban voss entwarfen das DomAquarée als Ensemble aus vier Baublöcken. Die städtebauliche Figur knüpft an die sichtbaren wie überlagerten gewachsenen Strukturen des Viertels an und vernetzt den Standort so mit seiner Umgebung. Die neuen Gassen, Plätze und die Spreepromenade sind als städtische Aufenthaltsräume konzipiert. In den Einzelgebäuden sind ein Hotel, Wohnungen und Büros untergebracht. Herzstück und Highlight des Komplexes ist der >AquaDom

Download or read book Cultural continuity design progression written by nps tchoban voss Architekten and published by Jovis Verlag. This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The origins of the architecture office nps tchoban voss go back as far as 1931. Founded in Hamburg, the group practice now also has offices in Berlin and Dresden and is one of the most active and successful offices in each of the three cities. Quality living and work environments and attractive and stimulating urban and personal surroundings can only be created by taking a holistic approach to planning that encompasses the entire spectrum of environmental design, from urban design to the building details. For the architects, the principle of sustainability applies not only to construction but must also be seen as an aesthetic category. This book shows examples of the office's recent projects that reveal how nps tchoban voss applies their notion of quality from the scale of the local neighborhood to the design of interiors, and how at a formal level, they continue to create modern architecture that eschews short-lived architectural fashions in favor of creating economic architecture of lasting aesthetic value.

Download or read book Old New written by Frank Peter Jäger and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2012-11-05 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die meisten Gebäude, die in den nächsten Jahrzehnten in Europa benötigt werden, sind längst gebaut. Die Bauaufgaben der Zukunft liegen in der geschickten (Um-)Nutzung und Veränderung von Bestehendem, ob bei der Sanierung von Altstädten, beim Anbau an Wohnhäuser, bei der Erweiterung öffentlicher Gebäude oder der Umnutzung ganzer Fabrikareale. Das Bauen im Bestand erfordert spezifische Vorgehensweisen bei Planung, Bauausführung und Umsetzung. Die Bandbreite reicht dabei vom Arbeiten mit den Vorgaben des Denkmalschutzes, dem behutsamen Sanieren, bis hin zum vollständigen Überformen des Vorgefundenen. Neben der ästhetischen Transformation spielen auch technische Aspekte wie die energetische Ertüchtigung oder der Umgang mit kontaminierten Baustoffen eine wichtige Rolle. Das Buch liefert einen umfassenden Überblick über architektonische Strategien des „Weiterbauens". Es präsentiert intelligente Ideen und Konzepte für den Umgang mit dem Bestand und gliedert diese entsprechend der gewählten Herangehensweise in drei Kategorien: Addition, Transformation oder Umnutzung. Vorgestellt werden alltägliche Projekte wie die Revitalisierung von Bauten der Fünfziger bis Siebziger Jahre, etwa die von Adrian Streich Architekten sanierte Siedlung Heuried in Zürich, aber auch besondere Beispiele wie die Freiluftbibliothek aus recycelten Elementen einer Kaufhausfassade in Magdeburg-Salbke von Karo* Architekten. Interviews mit Experten liefern hilfreiche Hintergrundinformationen zu ausgewählten Themen.

Download or read book Zoos in Postmodernism written by Stephen Spotte and published by Fairleigh Dickinson Univ Press. This book was released on 2006 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The putative mission of zoos - education and conservation - yield doubtful results, education because its information relies on description and exposition instead of narrative, conservation because only a few large, showy vertebrates receive the most effort. By controlling reproduction and restricting evolution, zoos reduce animals to artifacts - unattached ecological fragments - and ultimately revoke their ontological status as part of the natural world." "Spotte's argument assumes manifestations that impinge on contemporary theories of art, film, literature, photography, and science, the whole anchored securely by the twin poles of semiotics and simulation. This willingness to grapple with high-level theory - and to take intellectual risks - sets Zoos in Postmodernism apart from other treatments of zoos in contemporary western literature."--BOOK JACKET.

Download or read book ETFE written by Annette LeCuyer and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2008-06-06 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ETFE foil has recently become an important material for the cladding of technologically sophisticated and innovative buildings. This material is very thin and lightweight and, when used in air-filled cushion assemblies, has enormous strength and a range of adaptive environmental attributes. ETFE cushion enclosures became known primarily through Grimshaw Architects’ Eden Project and Herzog + de Meuron’s Allianz Arena, and they are being used on the spectacular swimming stadium for the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing, the largest ETFE building envelope in the world so far. This book is conceived as an in-depth introduction to the characteristics of ETFE and its applications in construction. Project examples explore in detail the specific characteristics of ETFE building skins in the areas of structural behavior, light transmission, insulation, acoustics, fire engineering and environmental modification.
