- Abstract
Exploring historical models of the construction of communities of tacit knowledge, this paper examines the contribution of leftist practitioners to Milanese postwar planning culture focusing on the communist architectural collective Collettivo di Architettura. During the reconstruction period, Milan underwent significant economic, social, and territorial transformations that intensified the divide between the city center and the periphery. The Milanese outskirts were left to speculation, rapid urbanization, and high migration rates without adequate planning tools and policies. In this context, leftist practitioners sought to address the problems affecting the Milanese periphery and wanted to contribute to their resolution. Among them, Collettivo di Architettura stood out for its explicit political stance and extensive contribution. Its members attributed social and political dimensions to architectural work and integrated collaborative ways of working and political militancy into their practice. During the 1950s, they provided free professional support in the Milanese periphery in addition to their architectural practice: as urbanista condotto, they assisted municipalities that lacked adequate planning tools and knowledge and initiated discussions with local authorities, institutions, and economic operators concerning urban development. As a result, procedures, strategies, and processes were collectively developed to establish effective planning methods and improve living conditions in the Milanese outskirts. By explicitly drawing from the Gramscian concept of the organic intellectual and the example of other committed practitioners of their time, the engagement of Collettivo’s members provided the basis for a shared planning culture. Thus, this case study highlights the significance of political commitment in generating collaborative communities of tacit knowledge.

- Abstract
Dörfer und Städte haben sich entlang von Strassen entwickelt. Diese prägen als öffentliche Räume unsere Orts- und Stadtbilder, ihre städtebauliche Gestalt ist entscheidend für die Atmosphäre und Lebensqualität im Ort. In den letzten Jahrzehnten haben der stetige Ausbau zugunsten des motorisierten Individualverkehrs sowie die bauliche Reaktion auf den zunehmenden Lärm die räumliche Struktur entlang der Strassen stark beeinflusst und vielerorts zu unwirtlichen Stadträumen geführt. Städtebau beginnt an der Strasse zeigt Strategien auf, wie der Bezug der Strassenräume zur Quartierstruktur und die Herausforderungen von Klimaanpassung und stadtverträglicher Mobilität integral gedacht und Strassen wieder zu qualitätsvollen öffentlichen Räumen werden können.

Zaugg, Maxime and Zaugg, Maxime
- Abstract
This article traces the fruitful role of publicly exhibited urban scale models (maquettes urbaines), exemplified by the redevelopment project of Les Halles in Paris from 1968 to 1982. During the nearly twenty-year development history of the former marketplace in the historic Baltard Pavilions, countless attempts were made to find a suitable and politically successful new project. From the first public exhibition in March 1968, the urban scale model played a key role in facilitating communication between the Parisian population and the administration of the City of Paris. But the impact that the urban scale models would have on the population was clearly underestimated, and their public staging resulted in the emergence of vigorous debates about the future of the Les Halles site.

Zaugg, Maxime and Zaugg, Maxime
- Abstract
This paper explores the role of physical scale models as a tool for communication and participation in urban design, using the ZAC (Zone d'Aménagement Concerté) Mont Hermé (1979-1987) in France as a case study. The Mouvement de l'Habitat Groupé Autogéré (M.H.G.A.) in the 1960s and 1970s shifted urban design in France towards involving local residents in the planning and design of their communities. Physical scale models were used as tools between stakeholders and residents at various events and meetings, enabling effective negotiation. The ZAC Mont Hermé illustrates this approach, with scale models systematically introduced at various meetings and exhibitions, during interviews with prospective residents. The models were produced at scales ranging from 1:500 to 1:100, which recorded the process and ensured that all voices were heard, resulting in a true representation of the community's wants and needs for the new 400-home neighbourhood. This paper traces the story of the case study through interviews with residents, the former director of town planning, and architects and landscape architects involved in the consultation, as well as access to unpublished archival documents. The study provides insights into the importance of involving local residents in urban design, particularly through effective communication tools such as the physical model of the project and meaningful participation. The findings contribute to current discussions on public participation in urban design and planning, taking into account the potential and challenges of digitalisation in participatory processes. In conclusion, this paper highlights the importance of physical scale models in facilitating communication and negotiation between stakeholders and residents, and the importance of involving local residents in urban design.

9. Seeing democracy like a city

Beveridge, Ross, Koch, Philippe, Beveridge, Ross, and Koch, Philippe
- Abstract
Urbanisation is changing landscapes, social relations and everyday lives across the globe. But urbanisation is also changing the ways democracy is understood and practiced. Nevertheless, the relation between urbanisation and democracy remains conceptually and empirically underdeveloped. Our aim in this paper is to provide a novel way of thinking about this relationship that addresses two limitations in current debates. First, there is the dominant view that just as urbanisation dissolves the actual, material city it also dissolves the city as a democratic project. We challenge this understanding, arguing that across the globe claims for and forms of urban collective self-rule signal that the city retains democratic significance in a very specific sense: as an object of practice and thought the city is a source and stake of the urban demos. Second, there is a tendency to either restrict the question of democracy to state-centred forms of political action or to place democracy completely outside the realm of the state. We argue however that urbanisation unsettles seemingly fixed boundaries between the state and society and thus opens the possibility of weaving together a new democratic fabric encompassing both. In addressing these two strands of debate together, we outline a democratic politics of urbanisation that shifts perspectives from institutions to practices, from jurisdictional scales to spaces of collective urban life. Seeing democracy like a city, we argue, foregrounds a way to reimagine and to re-locate democracy in the everyday lives of urbanites.

Schöni, Alma and Schöni, Alma
- Abstract
Das in der Schwemmebene der Aare liegende Gaswerkareal gilt als Umstrukturierungsgebiet für die qualitative bauliche Verdichtung der Stadt Bern. Es sollen neue Nutzungen unter anderem auch Wohnfläche auf 60’000m2 Geschossflächen entstehen. Wegen dem Vorkommen von national prioritären Arten, wie dem nördlichen Kammmolch und seiner Vernetzungsfunktion gilt das Gaswerkareal als wertvolles Gebiet der Biodiversität auf Stadtberner Boden. Für die Bevölkerung bildet es durch seine dynamischen und offenen, undefinierten Nutzungen einen einzigartigen und identitätsstiftenden Freiraum. Das Gaswerkareal scheint deshalb wegen seinen ökologischen und freiräumlichen Qualitäten kein geeigneter Standort für die qualitative bauliche Verdichtung zu sein. Der Entscheid zur Überbauung des Gaswerkareals liegt bei der Stadtberner Stimmbevölkerung in der Abstimmung um das Planänderungsverfahren «ZPP Gaswerkareal», welche voraussichtlich 2023 stattfinden wird. Basierend auf Analysen des bisherigen Arealentwicklungsprozess, übergeordneten Planungsinstrumenten und den Grün- und Freiraumaspekten des Gaswerkareals werden in dieser Arbeit Argumente für die Erhaltung und Aufwertung des Gaswerkareals als ökologischer Grün- und Freiraum der Stadt Bern formuliert., The Gaswerkareal, located in the alluvial plain of the Aare River, is considered a area for the qualitative structural densification of the city of Bern. New uses, including residential space, are to be created on 60,000m2 of floor space. Due to the presence of national priority species, such as the northern crested newt, and its ecological networking function, the Gaswerkareal is considered a valuable area of biodiversity in the City of Bern. With its dynamic and open, undefined uses, it forms a unique and identity-creating open space. Because of its ecological and open space qualities, the Gaswerkareal does not seem to be a suitable location for qualitative building densification. The decision on the development of the Gaswerkareal lies with the voters of the city of Bern in the vote on the plan amendment procedure "ZPP Gaswerkareal", which is expected to take place in 2023. Based on analyses of the site development process to date, superordinate planning instruments and the green and open space aspects, this thesis formulates arguments for the preservation and upgrading of the Gaswerkareal as an ecological green and open space in the city of Bern.

Hagenbucher, Sandro and Hagenbucher, Sandro
- Abstract
Seit Jahren gehen immer mehr natürliche Lebensräume auf Kosten der Siedlungsflächen verloren. Obwohl in der Architekturszene die Nachhaltigkeit und Ökologie ein immer wichtigeres Thema wird, behandelt man die Themen Architektur und Garten bzw. Umgebungsgestaltung häufig separat. Dadurch wird das Potenzial der Architektur, Lebensräume für Tiere und Pflanzen und der damit verbundene Biodiversitätsförderung, miteinzubeziehen, meist nicht ausreichend ausgeschöpft. Das Ziel dieser Arbeit ist, innovative Anpassungen der Architektur aufzuzeigen, welche für die Biodiversität förderlich sein können. Dazu sollen bereits bekannte Elemente wie eine Fassadenbegrünung oder Lärmschutzwand in ihrer Funktion erweitert werden, um die oben genannten Themen zusammen zu bringen. Ausgearbeitete Massnahmen werden in einem Katalog vorgestellt und mit ihren Vor- und Nachteilen aufgezeigt. Um die ausgearbeiteten Massnahmen praxisnah beurteilen zu können, sind diese an einem beispielhaften Referenzstandort, auf ihre Machbarkeit, und dessen Ausführung in Berücksichtigung der rechtlichen Vorgaben, beurteilt. In einer vorgelagerten Standortanalyse wurde der Planungsperimeter untersucht und das Grundlagenstudium über alle relevanten Themen erstellt. Weiterführend wurde der grösser angelegte Beobachtungsperimeter in die Untersuchung aufgenommen, um die umliegende Umgebung berücksichtigen zu können. Anschliessend wurden für die ökologische Aufwertung, Leitarten, welche für den Referenzstandort passend sind, bestimmt. Zur Bestimmung sind verschiedene Online-Tools und zugängliche Datenbanken verwendet worden. Die drei Leitarten sind wie folgt bestimmt worden: Rotkehlchen (Erithacus rubecula), Blaue Holzbiene (Xylocopa violacea), Zauneidechse (Lacerta agilis). Im Massnahmenkatalog sind sieben vielseitig einsetzbare Massnahmen zur Biodiversität in der Architektur vorgestellt Aufgrund der schwindenden Flächen, welche für Bauvorhaben zu Verfügung stehen, müssen in näherer Zukunft immer mehr Gebäude sanie, For years, more and more natural habitats have been lost at the expense of settlement areas. Although sustainability and ecology are becoming increasingly important topics in the architectural scene, the topics of architecture and garden or environmental design are often treated separately. Thus, the potential of architecture to include habitats for animals and plants and the associated biodiversity promotion is usually not sufficiently exploited. The aim of this work is to show innovative adaptations of architecture, which can be beneficial for biodiversity. For this purpose, already known elements such as a facade greening or noise protection wall are to be extended in their function in order to bring the above mentioned topics together. Elaborated measures will be presented in a catalog with their advantages and disadvantages. In order to be able to assess the elaborated measures in a practical way, they are evaluated at an exemplary reference site for their feasibility and their execution in con sideration of the legal requirements. In a preliminary site analysis, the planning perimeter was examined and the basic study on all relevant topics was prepared. In addition, the larger observation perimeter was included in the study in order to take into account the surrounding environment. Subsequently, for the ecological enhancement, leading species, which are suitable for the reference site, were determined. Various online tools and accessible databases were used for the determination. The three flagship species were identified as follows: Robin (Erithacus rubecula), Blue Wood Bee (Xylocopa violacea), Sand Lizard (Lacerta agilis). In the catalog of measures, seven versatile measures for the promotion of biodiversity in architecture are presented. Due to the dwindling areas available for building projects, more and more buildings will have to be renovated in the near future. The measures are mainly aimed at existing buildings. The effort required to create these mea

- Abstract
Die vorliegende Bachelorarbeit beschäftigt sich mit der Bedeutung von begrünten Gebäuden, insbesondere dem Bosco Verticale als Leuchtturm der grünen Stadtplanung. Dabei wird untersucht, ob eine Ausweitung der Stadtbegrünung als realistisch betrachtet wird und welche Voraussetzungen dafür geschaffen werden müssten. Mithilfe einer Literaturrecherche werden theoretische Grundkenntnisse über den Bosco Verticale, die verschiedenen Begrünungssysteme wie auch Beispiele anderer Vorzeigeprojekte dargelegt. Ausserdem wird anhand einiger Beispiele ein grober Überblick über die gesetzliche Lage in der Schweiz, wie auch international zur Gebäudebegrünung aufgezeigt. Mithilfe von qualitativen Interviews werden Experten zum Bosco Verticale selbst, wie auch zu ähnlichen Gebäuden befragt. Ausserdem werden die Chancen und Schwierigkeiten von einer grünen Stadtplanung diskutiert und Lösungsansätze besprochen. Dadurch hat sich herauskristallisiert, dass der Bosco Verticale als beispielhaftes Projekt gilt. Trotz seiner Kritik regt er wichtige Auseinandersetzungen im Bereich Umwelt und grüner Stadtplanung an und dient als Referenz für ein grünes, stadtplanerisches Leitbild., This bachelor thesis focuses on the significance of greening, particularly the Bosco Verticale as a model for green urban planning. It examines the feasibility of expanding urban greening and the necessary conditions for doing so. Through literature research, it provides a theoretical understanding of the Bosco Verticale, various greening systems, and examples of other leading projects. In addition, using some examples, an overview of the legal situation in Switzerland and internationally regarding building greening will be outlined. Qualitative interviews with experts on the Bosco Verticale and similar buildings are also conducted. The advantages and challenges of green urban planning are discussed, and solutions are proposed. The conclusion suggests that the Bosco Verticale serves as an exemplary project that triggers important discussions on the environment and green urban planning and serves as a reference for a green urban planning vision.

- Abstract
Resource depletion, climate change, and ecosystem degradation are challenges facing cities worldwide and will increase if cities do not adapt. To address these challenges, we need to take a holistic approach to transform our cities into sustainable systems. One element to achieve this transition is the implementation of nature-based solutions (NBS). NBS can provide a range of ecosystem services that are beneficial to cities, such as microclimate regulation, flood prevention, water purification, food provisioning, and more. To ensure the successful implementation of NBS and to identify the enabling conditions and barriers to NBS in Zurich, three groups of stakeholders were identified: (i) academics, (ii) governments, and (iii) NGOs. Semi-structured interviews with representatives of these three groups were conducted in Zurich, Switzerland. The interviews were transcribed and coded using Amberscript. To facilitate the use of NBS in Zurich, the main barriers to the implementation of NBS were identified from those mostly mentioned. The following main barriers were identified: (i) lack of resources, (ii) lack of knowledge, (iii) improper design, (iv) lack of communication, (v) lack of teamwork, (vi) lack of space, (vii) lengthy bureaucracy and (viii) lack of protected areas. The interviews showed, that for increasing the use of NBS in Zurich, a review of existing laws, bureaucracy, well thought and sustainable planning, providing information on NBS, and education about NBS. For the implementation, it depends on the agreement and cooperation of all experts, professionals, politicians, and the population. Communicating must not be lacking. Additionally, to show an example of the cooling efficiency of NBS in cities, micrometeorological measurements were performed in different urban spaces (grey urban areas, with and without trees and an urban park with and without trees) in Novi Sad, Serbia, on a hot summer day on 17 August 2022.

Arteplagemodelle der Direction artistique (Leitung: Pipilotti Rist). Herstellung: Koeppel & Martinez (bis 2003). Arteplagemodell Biel, Mst. 1:1500. Forum und Expopark. 26 x 115 x 80 cm. Schweizerisches Nationalmuseum, LM-108202.1, Physical urban scale models have the capacity to engage larger communities in architectural and urban debates. A good example is the Swiss National Expo 02, which aimed to explore Switzerland’s identity under the banner, ‘Nature and Artificiality’. During the preparatory phase, which lasted ten years, countless concepts were tested. In this phase, models often had the role of negotiating between organisers and the public. Time and time again, these models – their different scales, various materials, and colours – played a key role in tacitly presenting to the public what Swiss national identity was about. The Arteplagemodell by the Swiss artist and director of the exhibition, Pipilotti Rist, is exemplary in this respect.

- Abstract
Im Rahmen der Ortskernentwicklung möchte die Gemeinde Schwyz die Aspekte des Mikroklimas, der Aufenthaltsqualität und der Soziokultur verstärkt in der Vorstudie «Betriebs- und Gestaltungskonzept Ortszentrum Schwyz» einbinden und integrieren. Diese Bachelorarbeit zeigt auf, wie die Vorstudie hinsichtlich dieser Aspekte optimiert werden kann. Durch Kurzporträts wurden die Strassenabschnitte der Vorstudie analysiert und deren Bedürfnisse und Potenziale definiert. Mittels Literaturrecherche und Good-Practice-Beispielen wurde ein «Massnahmen-Werkzeugkasten» mit Massnahmenpaketen erarbeitet. Diese Pakete enthalten konzeptionelle Massnahmen mit unterschiedlichen Wirkungen zur gezielten Optimierung der Strassenräume. Durch diese zwei Instrumente konnten in einem ersten Schritt die Strassenabschnitte in Gruppen unterteilt und ihnen Massnahmenpakete zugewiesen werden. In einem zweiten Schritt wurde mit der Bearbeitung eines Fallbeispiels dargestellt, wie die Kurzporträts und der «Massnahmen-Werkzeugkasten» angewandt werden können. Die Resultate zeigten, dass die Einteilung von Strassenabschnitten in gleichartige Gruppen mittels Kurzporträts und den definierten Bedürfnissen sowie Potenzialen möglich ist. Dadurch konnten den Strassengruppen gezielte Massnahmenpakete zur Förderung der Strassenräume sowie die Abdeckung der Bedürfnisse und Potenziale zugewiesen werden. Im erarbeiteten Fallbeispiel konnte aufgezeigt werden, wie die Massnahmen aus den Massnahmenpaketen in die Vorstudie integriert werden können. Dabei wurden konkrete Fördermassnahmen ausgewählt, deren Wirkung beschrieben und in den Strassenraum integriert., As part of the development of the town centre, the municipality of Schwyz would like to incorporate and integrate the aspects of microclimate, quality of stay and socioculture more strongly in the preliminary study "Operational and design concept for the town centre of Schwyz". This bachelor thesis shows how the preliminary study can be optimised about these aspects. By means of short portraits, the street sections of the preliminary study were analysed, and their needs and potentials defined. By means of literature research and good practice examples, a "measure toolbox" with measure packages was developed. These packages contain conceptual measures with different effects for the targeted optimisation of the street spaces. In a first step, these two tools made it possible to divide the street sections into groups and assign packages of measures to them. In a second step, the processing of a case study demonstrated how the short portraits and the "measure toolbox" can be applied. The results showed that it is possible to divide road sections into similar groups using short portraits and the defined needs and potentials. This made it possible to assign specific packages of measures to the groups of streets to promote the street spaces and cover the utilisation and development requirements. In the case study, it was possible to show how the measures from the packages of measures could be integrated into the preliminary study. Concrete promotion measures were selected, their effects described and integrated into the street space.

- Abstract
Wir stehen mitten in einer zweiten Digitalisierungswelle, die unseren Alltag und unsere Arbeitswelt erfasst. Dies gilt auch für die Architektur. Neu geht es dabei nicht mehr nur um das Einlesen und Darstellen von Daten oder das Produzieren von virtuellen Räumen und Objekten, sondern vielmehr um die Möglichkeiten von deren Verknüpfung und Weiterverarbeitung. Bezeichnungen wie «Internet der Dinge» oder smarte Technologien und darauf aufbauend Konzepte wie Smart Cities suggerieren die totale Vernetzung von Objekten, Räumen und Menschen über Algorithmen. Die Verknüpfung unserer physischen mit der digitalen Welt wird vielfältiger und komplexer. Was bedeutet dies für die Architektur, das Bauen und für die Architekturausbildung? Welche digitalen Werkzeuge und Programme kommen zum Einsatz und wie werden sie genutzt für das Planen und die Ausführung, die Gestaltung unserer physischen Umwelt?

21. The Projet Urbain of Euralille : urban scale models and the public

Zaugg, Maxime and Zaugg, Maxime
- Abstract
The emergence of participatory practices in urban design in France during the 1960s resulted in new approaches to involve citizens in urban development projects. Derived from these new participative urban strategies, the concept of the French Projet Urbain offered an alternative to top-down master-planning by favouring more punctual and strategic urban design interventions. The strong cooperative character of this type of urban development heavily influenced contemporary planning and design methods. As a result, the planner’s role evolved from a designer focused predominantly on plans and concepts to an actor performing at the centre of a heteronomous network of requirements and participants, including politicians, investors, sociologists, philosophers, local citizens, etc. Thus, physical urban scale models became important tools to mediate and communicate between this vast set of actors and requirements. Urban scale models also clearly showed how the project was embedded in the existing urban fabric, often highly charged – both politically and emotionally, including various infrastructures, topographical differences, complex situations of land ownership and ambitious programmes. Urban scale models were thus very effective tools to place these different constraints in conversation with each other and were capable of negotiating the long-time period of many Projets Urbains. This paper aims to investigate how the mediating characteristics of urban scale models allowed for negotiation during the complex processes of Projets Urbains. The example of Euralille (F), realized between 1986 and 1991, implying a diversity of actors and requirements, will therefore be explored as a case study. The multiple urban scale models used for Euralille varied significantly in formal composition, materiality, and scale, depending on the groups of people they sought to reach/unite, the ideas they sought to convey, and the political aims they set out to achieve and thus offer the ideal len

Zaugg, Maxime and Zaugg, Maxime
- Abstract
With the emergence of public participation in urban design in Europe during the 1960s, the physical urban scale model became essential as a mediator between professionals and the public. However, the degree to which the urban scale model engages the public in urban discourses and projects depends on different factors. While technical properties such as scale, abstraction, and materiality are important for the readability of the urban model, the scenographic staging of the models in public exhibitions and presentations influences their interaction with the audience. The agency of urban scale models is also heavily affected by techniques of representation, including photographic and cinematographic representations in printed popular media and filmed models on television. This paper explores the impact of evolving representation techniques on the ability of the urban scale model to engage the public. It focuses on the technique of ‘relatoscopy’, investigating the project of Les Halles in Paris from the 1960s to the 1980s. A technique of photographing models with an endoscope, resulting in images from the human eye's perspective, relatoscopy, first conceived and employed in architecture and urban design by the French architect Martin Schulz van Treeck, allowed the public to better understand the model. However, relatoscopy transformed the perception of the model from a bird’s-eye view, which leaves the audience room for interpretation, to a perception of the model at human-eye level, from ‘within’, which leaves less room for interpretation. This technique therefore allows more control and manipulation of the perspectives conveyed.

- Abstract
On February 29, 1960, a catastrophic earthquake devastated the Moroccan coastal city of Agadir, erasing it almost entirely and killing a third of its population. The world was shocked, and very quickly large amounts of international aid arrived. Following an emotional speech by King Mohammed V, the reconstruction of Agadir also turned into an undertaking of national and international solidarity. A new and unprecedented process of urban construction was developed that allowed many architects—national and international—to simultaneously design the new city. The result of this joint effort was astounding. In a very short time, the new Agadir rose from the ashes. The best Moroccan and international architects experimented with novel housing typologies, which mediated between ultramodern and vernacular ways of dwelling, complemented by innovative public structures, such as schools, dispensaries, and cinemas. All of these combined into an original urban reality: a modern Afropolis. This book for the first time thoroughly explores the forgotten tale of Agadir’s reconstruction. It features previously unpublished archival documents and striking period photographs, as well as new plans and contemporary images by London-based photographer and academic David Grandorge, alongside scholarly essays by architects and architecture historians. A three-part interview with Lahsen Roussafi, who witnessed the 1960 earthquake as a student, rounds out this tantalizing narration of the international architectural adventure of rebuilding Agadir as the modern Afropolis.

- Abstract
Current scientific research points out the low number of papers focused on the environmental patterns in Mediterranean urban areas, where green infrastructure is still strongly underrated by scientists as well as by politicians, planners and decision-makers. In this paper, the results of a simple meta-analysis on the topics treated in scientific literature about the Mediterranean green roofs (MGRs) are presented. Our review pointed out the strikingly higher attention paid to building materials, energy efficiency and hydraulics with respect to life sciences (including basic ecology, horticulture, soil, plant and animal sciences) in the target paper selection. In fact, despite the availability of plentiful information about the Mediterranean vascular flora and vegetation, this is not so informing the selection of plants for roof greening purposes. The role of soil-based substrates in local bio-geochemical cycles, plant and animal communities and their dynamics have also been poorly studied so far. Social and perceptive aspects are completely underrated too, whilst the management strategies and the dominant economic approach are informed more by energy-saving than by the finding innovative and sustainable materials and techniques. More investments are needed to: 1) diversify the techniques and materials for roof construction, respecting local ecoregional features and circular economy; 2) sustain the use of native plants, well adapted to stand environmental stress and anthropogenic disturbance; 3) avoid potentially invasive alien plants; 4) implement the cost-benefit effectiveness of MGRs in the medium-and long-term.

This technique therefore allows more control and manipulation of the perspectives conveyed.

The second warmest summer in Switzerland since the beginning of systematic temperature measurements in 1864 has brought the effects of anthropogenic climate change back into public awareness after the COVID-19 pandemic. And because global greenhouse gas emissions are still rising despite the ambitious climate targets of various countries, this summer was only a harbinger of what is to come in the future. The predicted climate change will hit cities particularly hard because of the intensification of heatwaves in combination with the urban heat island effect (UHI). The temperature difference due to the UHI can be a few degrees during the day, but up to 10°C at night (up to 8° for Zurich). To counteract this, there are various urban planning measures that could be implemented, but since urban microclimate is a complex system of numerous intricated processes, it is difficult to predict the resulting effect of any alternation, which can, in the worst case, even be opposite to what was desired. Complex urban climate simulations can help to make more informed decisions in this regard. Using our own simulations from the Zurich region and findings from the scientific literature, it is discussed if such simulations make sense and what should be taken into account.

- Abstract
Der Ansatz von Planern und Landschaftsarchitekten unterscheidet sich stark von dem der Ökologen und Naturwissenschaftler. Eine grosse Herausforderung besteht darin, diese zwei Welten zu verbinden: Ökologie und Immobilienbranche. Das DeMo-Projekt setzt die Grundlagen für einen multidisziplinären Gestaltungsrahmen, der das Problem des Verlusts der biologischen Vielfalt in der städtischen Umwelt durch naturnahe Gestaltung angeht. Die Methode berücksichtigt den Massstab Gebäude – Stadt – Landschaft und wird durch neue digitale Technologien ermöglicht.

- Abstract
Durch vermehrte, langanhaltende Hitzewellen nimmt der Effekt der Heat-Islands in städtischen Gebieten stetig zu. Da es sich bei der Umgestaltung von städtischen Gebieten zur Bekämpfung des Heat-Island Effekts um einen langwierigen Prozess handeln kann, wurde im Rahmen einer interdisziplinaren Bachelorarbeit mit Martina Skvaro, Studierende im Fachbereich Industriedesign an der ZHdK, das Konzipieren einer modularen Konstruktionslösung mit Umgebungstemperatur senkender Eigenschaft als eine Übergangslösung zur Verminderung des Heat-Island Effekts verfolgt. Um eine Grundlage zu bilden, wurde nach kühlenden Möglichkeiten recherchiert. Diese wurden beschrieben und mit einem Anwendungsbeispiel ergänzt. Dabei sind die Erhöhung der Albedo von Oberflächen, die Evaporation, die Transpiration, Kompressions-kältemaschinen, Ab- bzw. Absorptionskältemaschinen und Lateralwärmespeicher dokumentiert worden. In Zusammenarbeit wurden die wichtigsten Kriterien für die Bewertung der Kühlmethoden in Bezug auf den Sechseläutenplatz bestimmt. Folgend wurde die Bewertung durchgeführt, indem Punkte von 0 bis 3 für jedes Kriterium und Kühlmethode vergeben wurden, wobei 3 die höchste Punktzahl definiert. Dabei konnte die Evaporation als geeignetste Methode ausgesucht werden.

Hadorn, Lars and Hadorn, Lars
- Abstract
Seit der Teilrevision des Raumplanungsgesetzes 2014 ist in der Schweiz das Zeitalter der Innenentwicklung angebrochen. Die fortschreitende Zersiedlung soll mit der neuen Devise Innenentwicklung gestoppt werden. Diese neue Devise brachte neue Herausforderungen mit sich. Damit die Innenentwicklung nicht durch einen Qualitätsverlust begleitet wird, werden Methoden, Werkzeuge und Instrumente benötigt, welche die qualitative Innenentwicklung sicherstellen. Dies ist eine besondere Herausforderung in Arealen, welche sich durch kulturhistorische Siedlungsstrukturen auszeichnen. Denn diese vorhandenen Strukturen müssen mitberücksichtig werden. Das Ziel der vorliegenden Bachelorarbeit ist es, einen Kriterienkatalog zu erarbeiten, so dass Ortsplaner Siedlungsverdichtungsprojekte evaluieren können. Auf diese Weise können Projekte im Hinblick auf eine qualitativ hochwertige Siedlungsverdichtung optimiert werden. Dabei fokussiert die Bachelorarbeit auf Areale in Städte und Agglomerationen mit kulturhistorisch bedeutenden Siedlungen. Als Anwendungshilfe des Kriterienkataloges wird eine Handlungsempfehlung geschrieben. Der Kriterienkatalog wird basierend auf den rechtlichen Rahmenbedingungen, neuen Aspekten in der Fachliteratur und Experteninterviews erarbeitet. Dabei werden neue Aspekte recherchiert, welche die aktuellen rechtlichen Vorgaben bereichern können oder als theoretische Grundlagen dienen. Die Experteninterviews ergänzen die theoretischen neuen Aspekte um die Berufserfahrung. In den Interviews werden Konfliktfelder besprochen, welche in der Umsetzung von Projekten eine hohe Qualität verhindern könnten. Dabei steht die Berufserfahrung der Experten im Zentrum. Um der Komplexität des Themas gerecht zu werden, werden vier Experten interviewt. Die Experten repräsentieren den kantonalen Ortsbildschutz, die Gemeindeentwicklung, die Bauplanung und die Planung des Aussenraums. Als Kriterien für die qualitativ hochwertige Innenentwicklung konnten neun Punkte herausgearbeitet werde, Since the partial revision of the Federal Act on Spatial Planning in 2014, the age of urban densification has dawned in Switzerland. The continuous urban sprawl is to be stopped with the new maxim of urban densification. This new maxim brought new challenges. To avoid a loss of quality in the urban densification, methods, tools, and instruments are needed to ensure a qualitative urban densification. This is a particular challenge in areas that are characterized by cultural-historical settlement structures. Because these existing structures must be considered. The aim of this bachelor thesis is to develop a catalog of criteria so that local planners can evaluate settlement densification projects. With this catalog projects can be optimized regarding a high-quality settlement densification. The bachelor thesis focuses on areas in cities and agglomerations with cultural-historically, significant settlements. As an application aid of the criteria catalog, a recommendation for action is written. The criteria catalog is developed based on the legal framework, new aspects in the literature and expert interviews. New aspects are researched, which can enrich the current legal framework or serve as a theoretical basis. The expert interviews complement the theoretical new aspects with professional experience. In the interviews, areas of conflict are discussed that could prevent high quality in the implementation of projects. The focus is on the experts' professional experience. To do justice to the complexity of the topic, four experts are interviewed. The experts represent cantonal protection of cultural-historically, significant settlements, communal development, construction planning and planning of outdoor space. The respective points are evaluated based on a total of 58 criteria. These criteria are not exhaustive and are not a per se condition for a successful project, but they contribute to it. Nine points were identified as criteria for high quality inner development. T

- Abstract
Urban morphology investigates settlement and urban forms. These do not change overnight, but in a process that follows certain principles. There is hardly anything more complex and contradictory than a city. Precisely because of this complexity, there is little agreement on definitions and procedural methods. This applies in particular to urban planning, which is not only concerned with analysis, but also with the design and transformation of cities. A variety of different urban morphological approaches exist today. Authors from various areas of research and practice investigate the relevance of the morphological perspective in the field of contemporary urban landscapes. They link historical roots and current approaches and explain the relationship between analysis and design.

- Abstract
Fragmentation, environmental degradation, and habitat loss, due to urbanization and the consequent development of infrastructure, put a great deal of pressure on biological diversity and the functioning of ecosystems. In the coming decades, the ecological footprint of urban areas is set to increase, exacerbating the effect of climate change. In this context, urban development projects represent an excellent opportunity to experiment and implement new solutions which promote biodiversity. This work investigates, on the one hand, how aware designers are of solutions that aim to support biodiversity, and on the other hand, how spatial analysis and the adoption of parametric procedures can optimize cooperation between ecologists and designers from the early design stages.

Primas, Urs and Primas, Urs
- Abstract
The concept of Nested Networks is proposed to address the interplay between different levels of scale in the analysis of urban form. Focusing on processes of tissue formation, the internal configurations of buildings or building compounds are considered as local, spatial networks nested within a global host network of urban space. Two case studies within the historical core of Zurich investigate how such configurations of local, spatial networks have been affected by shifts in centrality within the superordinate host network, and how the reshuffling of local configurations has in turn allowed adaptations of the superordinate network. The proposed approach draws on a combination of Process typology and Space Syntax. In view of the results, the potential of a more thorough cross-fertilization of these two strands of urban morphology is discussed.

- Abstract
An der Burgstrasse 10, in Wädenswil wird ein Einfamilienhaus abgerissen und durch ein Mehrfamilienhaus ersetzt. Dabei wird bei dem Nachverdichtungsprojekt der Garten kleiner. Trotz kleinerem Garten sollte jedoch die ökologische Wertigkeit des Gartens beibehalten, wenn nicht sogar gesteigert werden. Nicht nur die Ökologie stellt eine Herausforderung dar, auch der Nutzen und die Ästhetik müssen bedacht werden. Die Fragestellung „Wie sieht eine nutzbare, ästhetische und zugleich ökologisch wertvolle Lösung der Grünflächengestaltung des Neubaus an der Burgstrasse 10 aus“ wurde in mehreren Kapiteln bearbeitet und schliesslich beantwortet. Die drei Parameter wurden unter dem Begriff „Vollwertgrün“ genauer beschrieben. Die Rahmenbedingungen der Ökologie, der Nutzung und der Ästhetik wurden ermittelt. Dabei wurde die Umgebung und der Standort, die ökologische Wertigkeit anhand der Checkliste naturnahe Grünräume und dem ökologischen Ausgleichsmodell (ÖA), mögliche Zielarten, der direkte und indirekte Nutzen und die Ästhetik untersucht. Die Rahmenbedingungen konnten wiederum in Punkten zusammengefasst werden, um die wichtigsten Massnahmen klar darzustellen. Diese sind: Möglichst wenig versiegelte Flächen zu schaffen, qualitativ hochwertige Grünflächen gestalten, für eine grosse Strukturvielfalt sorgen, Vernetzungsmöglichkeiten miteinbeziehen, mindestens 167 ÖA-Punkte erreichen, die Sonneneinstrahlung und den Standort für die Pflanzenwahl berücksichtigen, Zielarten integrieren, wiederverwendbare Strukturen und Baustoffe verwenden, Retention durch gezielte Bereiche auf dem Grundstück ermöglichen (damit ein möglichst geringer Abflusswert erreicht wird), die Kühl- und Verdunstungsleistung (vor allem durch Vertikalbegrünung) kompensieren, ästhetisch ansprechend gestalten, dynamische und naturnahe stabile Grünsysteme schaffen und den Pflegeaufwand und die Erstellungskosten zu vergleichen. Auf Grundlagen der Anforderungen konnte der aufbauende Teil, der Lösungskatalog mit den Konzep, At Burgstrasse 10, in Wädenswil, a single family house is being demolished and replaced by an apartment building. In the process, the garden will become smaller in the redensification project. Despite the smaller garden, however, the ecological value of the garden should be maintained, if not increased. But not only the ecology poses requirements, also the benefit and the aesthetics had to be considered. The question „How does a usable, aesthetic and at the same time ecologically valuable solution of the green space design of the new building at Burgstrasse 10 look like“ was worked on in several chapters and finally answered. The three parameters were described in more detail under the term „full green“. The framework conditions of ecology, use and aesthetics were determined. The environment and location, the ecological value based on the checklist of near-natural green spaces and the ecological compensation model (ÖA), possible target species, direct and indirect benefits and aesthetics were examined. The general conditions could again be summarized into points to clearly show the most important measures. These are; Create as little sealed surfaces as possible, design high quality green spaces, provide for a wide variety of structures, include networking opportunities, achieve a minimum of 167 ÖA points, consider solar radiation and location for plant selection, integrate target species, use reusable structures and building materials, Provide retention through targeted areas on the site to achieve the lowest possible runoff value, compensate for cooling and evapotranspiration primarily through vertical greening, design to be aesthetically pleasing, create dynamic and natural green systems, and compare maintenance requirements and construction costs. On the basis of the requirements, it was possible to create the building part, the solution catalog with the concept modules. These were divided into the respective areas of the perimeter, namely garden, facade and vert

- Abstract
Post-war residential areas make up the majority of the housing stock across Europe and are under significant pressure to develop further. Most of them are in need of renovation and, due to their urban composition, encompass large open spaces which seem to provide space for further development. At the same time, they present valuable historic witnesses. Densification efforts should therefore always consider and respect the overall composition of the development. For the first time, this workbook offers planners and historic preservationists as well as municipalities, city administrations, cooperatives, clients and owners a comprehensive guide to assessing and preserving the qualities of post-war residential developments due for densification.

- Abstract
Increasing building density is putting pressure on green spaces and thus on the living conditions for flora, fauna, and humans. However, the sixth IPPC report and the COVID-19 pandemic clearly show green spaces that enable recreation and the experience of nature in the immediate surroundings are central to both our well-being and biodiversity. To achieve the goal in despite of, or especially, because of the densification stipulated in the Spatial Planning Act (RPG1), new and additional ways are needed for high-quality open and green spaces within sustainable urban and settlement development. As a supplement to parks and gardens, the greening of buildings (facades and roofs) and measures that enable the settlement of wildlife play an important role. They make an important contribution to compensating for diminishing green spaces, providing habitats for flora and fauna, contributing to a better microclimate, having a positive influence on our quality of life and health, and, at the same time, strengthening the attractiveness of the cityscape.

Die zunehmende bauliche Verdichtung setzt das Grün und damit die Lebensbedingungen für Flora, Fauna und Menschen unter Druck. Es braucht neue Wege für qualitativ hochwertige Frei- und Grünräume innerhalb einer nachhaltigen Stadt- und Siedlungsentwicklung. Hierbei kommt der Begrünung von Gebäuden (Fassade und Dächer) und Massnahmen, welche die Ansiedlung von Tieren ermöglichen (Animal-Aided Design), eine bedeutende Rolle zu. Im Auftrag des BAFU wurden Handlungsanleitungen erarbeitet, die es sowohl Kantons- und Gemeindeverwaltungen als auch den Akteuren des privaten Planungs- und Bausektors erleichtern, das Potenzial von Gebäuden zur Förderung von Biodiversität und Landschaftsqualität besser auszuschöpfen.

Urban design ,Architecture ,711: Raumplanung (Städtebau) - Abstract
On February 29, 1960, a catastrophic earthquake devastated the Moroccan coastal city of Agadir, erasing it almost entirely and killing a third of its population. The world was shocked, and very quickly large amounts of international aid arrived. Following an emotional speech by King Mohammed V, the reconstruction of Agadir also turned into an undertaking of national and international solidarity. A new and unprecedented process of urban construction was developed that allowed many architects—national and international—to simultaneously design the new city. The result of this joint effort was astounding. In a very short time, the new Agadir rose from the ashes. The best Moroccan and international architects experimented with novel housing typologies, which mediated between ultramodern and vernacular ways of dwelling, complemented by innovative public structures, such as schools, dispensaries, and cinemas. All of these combined into an original urban reality: a modern Afropolis. This book for the first time thoroughly explores the forgotten tale of Agadir’s reconstruction. It features previously unpublished archival documents and striking period photographs, as well as new plans and contemporary images by London-based photographer and academic David Grandorge, alongside scholarly essays by architects and architecture historians. A three-part interview with Lahsen Roussafi, who witnessed the 1960 earthquake as a student, rounds out this tantalizing narration of the international architectural adventure of rebuilding Agadir as the modern Afropolis.

Das in der Schwemmebene der Aare liegende Gaswerkareal gilt als Umstrukturierungsgebiet für die qualitative bauliche Verdichtung der Stadt Bern. Es sollen neue Nutzungen unter anderem auch Wohnfläche auf 60’000m2 Geschossflächen entstehen. Wegen dem Vorkommen von national prioritären Arten, wie dem nördlichen Kammmolch und seiner Vernetzungsfunktion gilt das Gaswerkareal als wertvolles Gebiet der Biodiversität auf Stadtberner Boden. Für die Bevölkerung bildet es durch seine dynamischen und offenen, undefinierten Nutzungen einen einzigartigen und identitätsstiftenden Freiraum. Das Gaswerkareal scheint deshalb wegen seinen ökologischen und freiräumlichen Qualitäten kein geeigneter Standort für die qualitative bauliche Verdichtung zu sein. Der Entscheid zur Überbauung des Gaswerkareals liegt bei der Stadtberner Stimmbevölkerung in der Abstimmung um das Planänderungsverfahren «ZPP Gaswerkareal», welche voraussichtlich 2023 stattfinden wird. Basierend auf Analysen des bisherigen Arealentwicklungsprozess, übergeordneten Planungsinstrumenten und den Grün- und Freiraumaspekten des Gaswerkareals werden in dieser Arbeit Argumente für die Erhaltung und Aufwertung des Gaswerkareals als ökologischer Grün- und Freiraum der Stadt Bern formuliert., The Gaswerkareal, located in the alluvial plain of the Aare River, is considered a area for the qualitative structural densification of the city of Bern. New uses, including residential space, are to be created on 60,000m2 of floor space. Due to the presence of national priority species, such as the northern crested newt, and its ecological networking function, the Gaswerkareal is considered a valuable area of biodiversity in the City of Bern. With its dynamic and open, undefined uses, it forms a unique and identity-creating open space. Because of its ecological and open space qualities, the Gaswerkareal does not seem to be a suitable location for qualitative building densification. The decision on the development of the Gaswerkareal lies with the voters of the city of Bern in the vote on the plan amendment procedure "ZPP Gaswerkareal", which is expected to take place in 2023. Based on analyses of the site development process to date, superordinate planning instruments and the green and open space aspects, this thesis formulates arguments for the preservation and upgrading of the Gaswerkareal as an ecological green and open space in the city of Bern.

Current scientific research points out the low number of papers focused on the environmental patterns in Mediterranean urban areas, where green infrastructure is still strongly underrated by scientists as well as by politicians, planners and decision-makers. In this paper, the results of a simple meta-analysis on the topics treated in scientific literature about the Mediterranean green roofs (MGRs) are presented. Our review pointed out the strikingly higher attention paid to building materials, energy efficiency and hydraulics with respect to life sciences (including basic ecology, horticulture, soil, plant and animal sciences) in the target paper selection. In fact, despite the availability of plentiful information about the Mediterranean vascular flora and vegetation, this is not so informing the selection of plants for roof greening purposes. The role of soil-based substrates in local bio-geochemical cycles, plant and animal communities and their dynamics have also been poorly studied so far. Social and perceptive aspects are completely underrated too, whilst the management strategies and the dominant economic approach are informed more by energy-saving than by the finding innovative and sustainable materials and techniques. More investments are needed to: 1) diversify the techniques and materials for roof construction, respecting local ecoregional features and circular economy; 2) sustain the use of native plants, well adapted to stand environmental stress and anthropogenic disturbance; 3) avoid potentially invasive alien plants; 4) implement the cost-benefit effectiveness of MGRs in the medium- and long-term.
