RRR Manifesto
doing the right thing - with built architecture
...
- reduce your additions and modifications (the new things) as much as possible without compromising the goal to create a sustainable entity. Can you reduce the new to nothing by applying the following strategies?
> change of perception / > care and repair / > behaviour
> reuse as much and as directly as possible
> always think first / > challenge your own motivations / > try to define and grasp the essence of the existing structure / situation / energy ... / > try to think of the existing as something you are designing simultaneously with your new additions / subtractions / modifications. / > challenge standards / > Is your design really effective or are you just efficiently doing ‚what is right‘ instead of doing the right thing? / > make it your project to convince the client to keep as much as possible of the existing.
> recycle wherever and whenever possible
> ecology / > economy / > social resources / > historical resources / > spatial resources /
> image / doing the right thing / > if you have to really demolish something, still think of saving as much as possible / > If you build in an untouched setting try to behave like a sensitive guest: try to contribute to the conversation but not to dominate it.
the seminar
The aim is to give an overview of the work of building in existing contexts. In the center are the aforementioned topics. In addition, we shall discuss how far the results of the investigation can be transferred to protected buildings.
the task
The task is divided into two. The first is to formulate a concept for a rehabiltation, reuse and add-on project suitable to the qualities of the buildings under review. On this basis, a proposal for implementation is to be developed.
