🌍 🇩🇪🇨🇭During my first semester of exchange at hepia in Geneva, I had the opportunity to work on a fascinating studio project focused on Berlin, the quintessential Groszstadt. Berlin, with its complex industrial, political, and cultural layers, served as our study model. We explored its radical urban experiences and how they could inform the ideal city of the 21st century—a city characterized by simultaneous qualities: hierarchical, fragmented, dense, expansive, green, working-class, bourgeois, cultural, nonconformist, capitalist, and supportive. Our project involved analyzing a key urban structure in Berlin, identifying its origins and specific characteristics to consider interventions across various timelines. The studio emphasized density and usage, experimenting with urban and architectural projects in a real-world context. We employed diverse typological and morphological research approaches, focusing on spatial relationships between public and private, common and individual, and residential and production areas. The goal was to address urban projects at multiple scales, uncovering the identity and potential of the place. #Architecture #UrbanDesign #Berlin #ExchangeProgram #UNAM #hepia #Geneva #Switzerland #SustainableDesign #StudioProject #AcademicJourney

More on gentrification In the realm of architecture, there have been successful gentrification projects that managed to balance revitalization with community preservation. One notable example is the High Line in New York City. The High Line is an elevated linear park built on a historic freight rail line on Manhattan's West Side. The project transformed a disused railway into a vibrant public space that incorporates greenery, art installations, and gathering areas, revitalizing the surrounding neighborhood while preserving its industrial heritage. Another example is the Tate Modern in London. The Tate Modern is a contemporary art museum housed in a former power station on the banks of the River Thames. The adaptive reuse of the industrial building into a cultural hub has not only revitalized the area but also integrated the local community through art and exhibitions, creating a space that is accessible to a diverse audience. These projects demonstrate how thoughtful design and community engagement can lead to successful gentrification projects in architecture, where new developments enhance the urban fabric while respecting the history and identity of the neighborhood.

Checkpoint Charlie Reverie: A Student’s Encounter with Modernist Legacy In Berlin’s heart, where histories collide, Stands the Checkpoint Charlie apartments, a modernist pride. By Koolhaas and Sauerbruch, its structure unfolds, A narrative of past and present, intricately told. Seven stories rise with twenty-one homes, An elevated skeleton where legacy roams. Once customs and allied forces held their sway, Now homes and memories in layers play. The entrance hall, vast, a Le Corbusier baton, Echoes grand, with whispers of times bygone. No lightbulbs shine, yet ACME’s glow I recall, A magical orb, illuminating a student’s thrall. Through halls of camouflage, the urban tapestry weaves, Spaces where function and form interleave. Balconies and porticos, a dance in the sky, An architectural dialogue that catches the eye. Walking through history, a film on rewind, My tutor Matthias, REM’s genius combined. Faces of fame, yet a lightbulb within, A spark of ambition, where dreams begin. Caught in the grandeur, the scale so immense, A cinematic moment, intense and dense. In the shadows of masters, a student’s quest, To surpass, to shine, to be the very best. Checkpoint Charlie, a monument to strive, A beacon of design where past lives thrive. In its corridors, I found my path, Guided by architects’ wisdom, a light in the aftermath. #CheckpointCharlie #OMA #RemKoolhaas #MatthiasSauerbruch #BerlinArchitecture #IBA1987 #ModernistLegacy #ArchitecturalExperience #StudentJourney #UrbanCamouflage #ArchitecturalIcons #DesignInspiration #HistoricMonuments

Architectural Utopias: Navigating Futures Through Speculation and Ideals In revisiting Hans Hollein's seminal ideas and the subsequent reflections on utopia and architecture, it becomes evident that our current architectural discourse is entwined with the quest for new futures. The city, as Hollein proposed, is not merely a physical entity but a dynamic nexus of communication, constantly evolving and expanding. Economy's Proposals for Stockholm serve as a response to the pervasive influence of market-oriented forces in urban planning. Their endeavour is to challenge the commodification of public spaces and reimagine the cityscape through a multiplicity of perspectives and speculative interventions. By conjuring alternative histories and futures, they seek to disrupt the hegemony of commercial interests and inject a sense of possibility into urban imaginaries. The concept of utopia, as Oscar Wilde aptly noted, is indispensable in navigating the trajectory of humanity. Yet, the question arises: how do we translate utopian visions into tangible realities? Architects, in embracing their role as both political agents and idealists, are tasked with continual invention and innovation, transcending traditional boundaries to envision bold solutions for the collective good. Tarfuri's assertion underscores the imperative for architects to engage in radical thinking, to push the boundaries of what is deemed feasible and to embrace the speculative nature of their discipline. The notion that "everyone is an architect" underscores the democratization of design and the potential for interdisciplinary collaboration in shaping our built environment. The vandalism of the Little Mermaid statue in Copenhagen serves as a poignant metaphor for the precariousness of our present condition. As a symbol of both beauty and danger, the mermaid embodies the dichotomy inherent in our relationship with nature. In light of the escalating climate crisis, her presence atop the urban landscape serves as a reminder of the urgent need for resilience and adaptation. In conclusion, the discourse surrounding architecture and utopia is more relevant than ever in our increasingly uncertain world. By embracing the speculative, the visionary, and the political dimensions of their practice, architects have the potential to chart a course towards a more equitable and sustainable future. #ArchitecturalUtopias #FutureCities #SpeculativeArchitecture #UtopianVisions #UrbanImagination #ArchitecturalInnovation #ClimateAwareness #PublicSpaces #ArchitecturalDiscourse

“Fragments of Revolution: A Symphony on Friedrich Strasse” In the heart of Berlin, Friedrich Strasse pulsates with the rhythm of motor cars, echoing the spirit of Vorsprung durch Technik. Amidst the urban labyrinth, the window reflections of Acme Berlin tell a tale of architects navigating the labyrinth of tribulations, creating mischief in a city that embraces the unending struggle of their craft. Friedrich Strasse, a canvas for radical architectural exploration, stands defiantly at the crossroads with Unter den Linden, challenging the established norms and inviting doubt upon the crucifix. Other ideas have surfaced, seeking to usurp the world order, yet today, guile and intrigue anticipate the abatement of disguised imperialism. As tomorrow’s sun rises, a new chapter unfolds for both architecture and the world it shapes, promising a canvas where the dance of creativity and the pulse of society converge in an ever-evolving embrace. #BerlinChronicles #ArchitecturalIntrigue #UrbanExploration #FriedrichStrasseJourney #VorsprungDurchTechnik #CityscapeTales #AcmeBerlinReflections #ArchitecturalRevolution #TomorrowUnveiled #worldinmotion

Architectural Legacy: Honouring Hans Hollein's Vision in Vienna In the landscape of Vienna's architectural evolution, "ÜBERBAUUNG WIEN" symbolizes the city's extensive urban development, reflecting its historical, cultural, and economic significance. This term encapsulates Vienna's continuous growth and transformation, underscoring the challenges and opportunities of urbanization, including sustainability and social equity. Hans Hollein, a key figure in postmodern architecture, challenged norms through iconic works like the Haas House. His rebellious spirit and fusion of consumer tech into designs mirrored the zeitgeist of his time. Despite his passing, his legacy inspires architects to navigate the complexities of contemporary challenges. Reflecting on Hollein's contributions, we delve into the intersection of past ideals and future aspirations. His experimental projects, alongside those of Walter Pichler and Lebbeus Woods, offer insights into architecture's potential to shape society and provoke discourse. Amidst Europe's geopolitical tensions, the architectural community faces a pivotal moment. As Vienna prepares to host the Fabrication Gap symposium, architects, scholars, and policymakers converge to explore innovative solutions. Hollein's ethos of pushing boundaries resonates as architects strive to reconcile tradition with modernity. In honouring Hollein's vision, we recognize architecture's power to transcend boundaries and catalyse change. As Europe grapples with the spectre of war, architects are called to uphold principles of inclusivity and resilience. By drawing inspiration from the past while embracing technological advancements, architecture can forge a path towards a more equitable and sustainable future. This requiem to Hollein and postmodernism serves as a reminder of architecture's enduring relevance in shaping societal narratives. As Europe stands at a crossroads, architects wield the tools to navigate uncertainty and advocate for a vision of unity and progress. #ArchitecturalLegacy #HansHollein #ViennaArchitecture #UrbanDevelopment #SustainableDesign #Postmodernism #FabricationGap #EuropeanUnity #ArchitecturalInnovation #GeopoliticalTensions #architecturalresponsibility

BERLIN ICC BECOMES THE NEW CENTRE POMPIDOU? Exciting news for Berlin! Senator Franziska Giffey has announced an international competition to redesign the iconic ICC congress centre. Just a few years ago, politicians were calling for the ICC to be bulldozed. Now, they’re calling the ICC a potential “Berliner Centre Pompidou". Together with Airport Tegel, Fehrbelliner Platz and the Bierpinsel, the ICC is one of the key surviving examples of West Berlin’s 1970s space age brutalist architecture. When completed in 1979, it was a statement piece intended to show the world that the walled off city was still modern and relevant. Thanks to recent exhibitions at the Berlinische Galerie. Landesmuseum für Moderne Kunst, Fotografie und Architektur and also initiatives from the likes of BUREAU N, the ICC is finally getting the recognition it deserves. This is a fantastic opportunity for Berlin based architects to make this iconic site relevant for future generations. I for one can’t wait to see the creative concepts that will emerge from this competition. What do you think about the ICC’s plans? #Berlin #CentrePompidou #architecture #urbandevelopment #culture Photo: Bureau N / Something Fantastic
