School 4 Burma Design competition Honourable mention
Collaborative, community-based construction is considered to be the key. Through simple methods for untrained laborers and the use of local inexpensive materials the project seeks to demonstrate to the community how enhanced traditional building techniques provide real possibility for future building development: low cost, low tech construction that they can build by themselves, using their own resources. A simple bamboo construction system was devised through a lightweight bamboo frame and extensive onsite prefabrication of modular components, all to be assembled in place and fitted together by traditional knot technology.

Author: Gharakhanzadeh Sandbichler Architekten Personal Contribute: Concept and design, model, visualisations Located on a peninsula, the buildings complex try to be in harmony with the surrounding constructions and nature, being arranged in a staggered line from high to low density. Its porous structure allows a greater visual permeability while providing protected outdoor spaces. To ensure the diversity of typologies, these were mixed and juxtaposed, maintaining however the same structural grid throughout the building, thus allowing greater efficiency in construction. The bedrooms and living area are all facing the quiet courtyard and riverside while the access area, kitchen and dining room work as a buffer zone facing the busy street adjacent to the channel.

Habitat Initiative Mozambique Author: ZRS Berlin Personal contribute: Design, site supervision and coordination The Aga Khan Foundation Mozambique’s Habitat Initiative seeks to preserve and enhance the local architectural tradition, in which renewable resources like earth and bamboo are used to provide natural temperature and humidity regulation. The project’s goal is to improve upon existing building methods in order to extend building lifespan, thus addressing the challenge of providing rural communities with high-quality habitats. In the first phase of the project, eleven multipurpose learning centres were built to showcase the new construction methods. To facilitate the implementation and dissemination of these techniques, a total of forty local apprentices were trained in ecological building methods. As models of low-cost, high-quality, sustainable construction, the learning centres were designed to inspire others to imitate the new style. The project’s ongoing second phase seeks to use the same local materials and improved construction methods in the development of a similarly easy-to-replicate residential building style.

Campus Skoura Oasis, Morocco Author: ZRS Berlin Personal contribute: Concept and design The goal of this project is to renovate the primary school École Zaouia, in the Skoura oasis. The future school campus will be developed in different phases extending itself to the surrounding lots and occupying them with different functions. The mixture of developed parcels and oasis gardens stresses the concept of learning with and in the oasis. The new school consists of eleven classes and administrative facilities at the main entrance. The L-shaped buildings for the classes are organized in order to create clusters between them, resulting in small patios that give the possibility for smaller activities. At the same time the clusters are linked with larger patios for main open air activities. Having such diversity of spaces and elements on the playground area allow a more flexible use of it, providing environments, such as reading corner, stage, table area, storage space, etc. The L-shape of the classrooms allows a flexible use of the interior, by creating a small space which can be used as a storage or a class extension. With the possibility of seismic risks in the area of Skoura and being the new school built with earth, special attention was given to earthquakes safety requirements in the construction. These concerns are solved with detached buildings, one storey height and symmetrical structures. For the summer, shading devices and deep window frames in the buildings are used to avoid the solar rays. Moreover, the use of rammed earth walls to ensure high thermal mass will keep the cool air inside. For the winter, the building warming up is done by solar gains through the windows and by using geothermal energy.

Aquatic Complex
University group project | 5th year
The project place is a semi-abandoned industrial area by the river, wich is located near Frankfurt and surrounded by a dormitory neighbourhood. The building results in a waveform structure, whose cover starts on the ground, allowing everyone to enjoy it, as it extends the garden. In the end, by folding over itself it creates a row of seats. Moreover, it creates a viewpoint for the skyline of Frankfurt. The entry point is in the covering, thus increasing the impact it has as it emphasizes the entrance itself.

Ausstellungsort
Der Messestand ist repräsentatives Ausstellungsobjekt für den Fachbereich Architektur der TU Darmstadt auf der Hobit vom 29.-31.01.2008 im Kongresszentrum Darmstadt. Der Stellplatz ist durch zwei schräg stehende raumhohe Stützen definiert. Die Standgröße wird mit 4,50 m x 3,00 m festgelegt. Die Höhe des Raumes mit 3,20 m lässt keinen allumschließenden Stand zu. Somit muss der Entwurf des bisherigen Standes auf die Begebenheiten vor Ort angepasst und modifiziert werden. Anstelle des umlaufenden Rahmens entsteht eine Landschaft, in der die benötigten Funktionen aus dem Boden herausmodelliert werden. Die Landschaft umschließt die Stützen und integriert sie in die Gesamtfigur des Messestands.

Holidays House
University project | 2nd year
It was requested a holidays house for a writer located on a hill near the ocean. The result is a house composed by a main volume that contains the social area and by cubic volumes attached containing the private area. These second ones, through the space between them, control the view from social space to the outside. The main idea behind this project is the sculptural punctuation of the landscape through the building.
