At the UIA World Congress of Architects in July, the voices of students and young professionals is a vital part of the extensive programme. From Aarhus School of Architecture, many of our students will participate, and @mathiasmany and @helonestone are both part of the UIA Next Gen Committee, developing sessions curated by students for students and newly graduated. We are looking forward to share more about our involvement in Next Gen presentations, debates, workshops and exhibitions this summer at @uia2023cph – stay tuned!🔥

In his critical written reflection assignment ”All that could have been” from fall 2022, Adam Marcel Nielsen asks what we are demolishing and why.
 
In Aarhus, the number of demolition cases recieved by the municipality has gone up 55% in the last nine years, despite the urge for new accomodation to the many people moving to Aarhus, and despite the fact that, in Europe, the main source of waste is our construction industry, accounting for 36%.
 
Adam puts together a demolition catalogue of local cases and explores the reasons given for demolishing the buildings, and he calculates the cost to the environment. 

The project also examines the material value of the buildings and the potential value.
 
Finally, Adam looks at a couple of cases where buildings have been transformed successfully rather than demolished, e.g. Verbiest by AgWa and halewijnkouter by Raamwerk.
 
” I would say that the gentle dance with the exiting requires the architect to accept an already spoken language and tap into that, and this leaves parts of the projects out of the control of the architect. This task can give a lot back both with regards to narrative and sustainability. A lot more than the ego driven architecture of newness”.

SOLIDARITY - EARTH - READINGS - AESTHETICS - POLITICS

From five festival scenes, OPEN23 looks into the environmental, aesthetic and political perspectives on Solidarity through debates, talks, exhibitions, movies and readings.

OPEN23 will address Solidarity as a fundamental and indispensable cohesion within architecture and society as a whole. We ask: Does solidarity have the potential to lead the way through the ecological crisis, and can it be a future driver for sustainable solutions?

More info and tickets via link in bio.

Thank you @statenskunstfond @dreyersfond and @realdaniadk for supporting OPEN23.

På fredag åbner den danske pavillion på årets Arkitekturbiennale i Venedig, og Arkitektskolen Aarhus er repræsenteret i kraft af lektor Katrina Wibergs og professor Tom Nielsens engagement i forskningsprojektet Kystbyers løsningsmuligheder over tid.
 
Pavillonens udstilling Coastal Imaginaries udforsker naturbaserede designløsninger for fremtidens kystlandskaber og giver konkrete løsninger på at leve med stigende havniveauer og stormfloder forårsaget af klimaændringer.

Kurator for Danmarks bidrag, Josephine Michau, kalder Coastal Imaginaries for ”et laboratorium for håb i en verden af ​​viral håbløshed” med reference til den samlede biennales overordnede titel ”The Laboratory of the Future”, som er givet af hovedkurator Lesley Lokko.

Dansk Arkitektur Center er udpeget af Kulturministeriet som kommissær for det officielle danske bidrag til den 18. arkitekturbiennale i Venedig. 

Bidraget er skabt i samarbejde med Realdania, Kulturministeriet og Statens Kunstfond Legat- og Projektstøtteudvalg for Arkitektur.

Årets Arkitekturbiennale i Venedig finder sted i perioden den 20. maj til den 26. november 2023.

Liveable Langenæs: @aaa_studio_1d is working with the Langenæs quarter in Aarhus this semester. The assignment is an urban transformation project on a site along Skanderborgvej. The place consists of a tower with social housing, a small shopping center, shops, small businesses, parking garages, and parking lots on ground level.
 
The students have been investigating and challenging which urban lifeforms we can expect and aim for in the reconfiguration of the site. Based on existing knowledge and values, how should we design our future urban spaces in order for them to support environmental, social, and, economic sustainable urban transformations?
 
As adjunct professor at the studio, Jan Gehl, says: ”Urban life before urban space before buildings”.

Unit 1C arbejder med bosætning i Aarhus Ådal med @aarhusbowlinghal som omdrejningspunkt. 

De studerende har bl.a. undersøgt bowling som fænomen gennem studier af de genstande, udøverne bruger, og så har de kortlagt ådalen og indsamlet biopsier.
 
Til mellemkritikken i denne uge har de lavet modeller og bricolager med kortlægninger af området. 

Nogle af bricolagerne blev ret vilde, som det måske fremgår af billederne.
 
Nu går arbejdet videre frem mod projektaflevering den 26. juni – god arbejdslyst!

🐘 Trut! 🐘 
Lørdag er der atter Elefantbar - Arkitektskolens traditionsrige festkoncept – og lige nu er de studerendes festforening, @arkibal_ , i fuld gang med forberedelserne. 

Mon ikke billederne kan få en tåre frem i øjenkrogen på tidligere studerende?
 
Elefantbaren går nemlig helt tilbage til 1990, hvor den ifølge Wikipedia begyndte med en fredagsbar, hvor der kun blev serveret elefantøl og filterløse cigaretter.
 
Siden voksede festerne sig store, og i 2013 deltog 2.400 mennesker i Elefantbar, som blev holdt på Train.
 
Til hver fest skal der bygges en elefant, og denne gang har Arkibal brugt omtrent tyve timer på at bygge den i træ. 

Snart skal den monteres på en stor kabeltromle og rulles hen til @volumevillage_ , hvor festen holdes i morgen.
 
Temaet er ’elefantkirkegård’ – en reference til myten om, at de ældre elefanter går til et afsides sted for at dø. Arkibal syntes, at gruset og det rå miljø ved Volume Village lagde op til netop det tema. 
Arkitekter tænker jo altid på konteksten, når de tegner 💡
 
Længe leve Elefantbar!
