Understanding environmental attributes associated with ‘Wartezustand’ refugee children’s physical activity: studies of refugee accommodations in Berlin

Active playing space Abstract A body of studies showed that children with a refugee background are always trapped in uncertain transit (wartezustand), lost stable living environments, and are worried about neighbourhood safety, which forms disadvantageous built environments for them. Research has identified that built environmental attributes are associated with children’s physical activity (PA); refugee children are not sufficiently physically active, resulting in consequences on their health and development. Since refugee children live in distinct environments compared to non-refugee, it is essential to identify environmental factors associated with their PA. The literature review of this dissertation summarised the current evidence of associations between built environment attributes and refugee children’s PA that key PA barriers were limited play space, a lack of neighbourhood safety, and the importance of informal PA space. It also identified three gaps between spatial characteristics, perceived environmental barriers/facilitators and active built environments for refugee children’s PA. The dissertation aims to examine the following three research questions, with a view to facilitating: a.

What are spatial characteristics of refugee accommodations (micro) associated with refugee children’s PA? b.

What are spatial characteristics around refugee accommodations (meso) associated with refugee children’s PA? c.

What are perceived environmental barriers and facilitators of refugee children’s PA in/around refugee accommodations, from both adults’ and refugee children’s perspectives?

Space syntax theory was used to analyse their spatial characteristics in micro-, and meso-environments qualitatively and quantitatively. Data on refugee children’s overall PA time and identified playfield were collected with staff surveys and schedules. Furthermore, the detailed PA timelines of fifteen refugee children (6 to 13 years old) and PA environments’ evaluations were captured by interviewing and drawing workshops through gathered questionnaires of children and parents in one representative accommodation. Semi-structured interviews and three days’ photovoice with three children from the same accommodation were conducted to get an in-depth understanding of children perceived built environments for PA. Additionally, various data sources and measurements were explored to assess active built environments for refugee children’s PA. For spatial characteristics of refugee accommodation (micro), results indicated that PA space size was unrelated to children’s PA. The important predictor was the presence of accessible and open corridors combined with lower step depths to internal and external PA spaces, which provided higher global integration values. Of even higher importance was fewer floors in the spatial characteristics that help refugee children traversed more accessible from their living units to destinate PA space.

In meso environments, children spent more time on PA, and more active PA spaces could be found if neighbourhoods located in residential areas with no highways/ railways go across.

Besides, refugee children identified informal PA spaces as their play areas as a perceived environmental facilitator for their PA in meso-environments. Furthermore, most refugee parents expressed their perceived concerns about neighbourhood safety.

Abovementioned, an active environment for refugee children’s PA may include these features as (1) lower step depth(from living units) to external PA spaces; (2) lower step depth to internal PA spaces, (3) has higher average integration and (4) has more active PA spaces, these accommodations also got higher scores in staff environment rating surveys.

The dissertation provides insights into the relationship between refugee accommodations’ PA spatial characteristics, perceived environmental barriers and facilitators and active built environment for refugee children’s PA. However, more effective samples should be investigated in the future. The author drew up evidence-based design strategies on refugee accommodations in micro and meso-environments concerning their active playing. Supplementary, the study has contributed to developing a summarised comparison, to which related-participators can compare different buildings for refugee accommodation purposes or re-functionalised existing buildings to further accommodation utility in micro-environments. Last but not least, it will help find a better location choice solution, a better neighbourhood optimisation related to refugee children’s active PA in meso-environments.

Chapter 4 investigates six refugee accommodations from Berlin in micro-environments: three initial receptions, two community accommodations, and one Tempohomes. It analyses spatial characteristics of refugee accommodations associated with refugee children’s PA with space syntax. It also compares these studies from different spatial measure levels as connectivity, step depth from living units to internal and external PA spaces and global integration. An additional four refugee accommodations are presented, and they will be used to deepen the topology in Chapter 8.

In the Realms of the Unreal Unique space design for teenage immigration from China to Germany

THE BANANA CASE What is a Banana case?

The name of my project banana case comes from a typical Chinese joke. For a long time, we called the overseas Chinese ‘banana’. Though they have the same yellow skin as us, we have significant disagreements based on different growing backgrounds, the identity issues are under-researched but unignoring problems for further discussion.

There is a magic invention from Japan used to keep the banana fresh called the banana case. I used this as the title of my project, trying to design relax and comfortable cases for my young bananas in the realms of the unreal world for them.

Why the Banana case?

It has already become a hotspots issue for immigration from developing to developed countries. In this indeterminate change, I take the sample of the teenager immigration as my target group based on not only my background but also the challenges of special language and social conditions based in Germany. The aim of this project is to design a multi-language Campus for Chinese teenagers immigration (10 to 18 years old) who settle down in Germany.

How did I build the banana case?

I began with the research of two countries in completely different historical processes. the first overlap point I found was in medieval, both countries suffered from natural disasters and tried to escape from the reality by dreaming in new kinds of literature. In Europe, it is presented by dream poetry. The master is Geoffrey Chaucer who is well known as the father of England literature. And in China, it developed into a dream opera. “Peony Pavilion” is one of the masterpieces of this period.

I used a mater piece of literature, “Peony Pavilion”, as the structure of my project, which abstracted my project into four separate investigations: (1)Journey; (2) Nightmare; (3) Seek; (4) Reproduce.

I tried to present my idea and also my design in the dynamic process in order to prove the brief of our studio “On the Move”.

RESEARCH STRUCTURE & BACKGROUND

The Banana Survey

In order to have a directly, clear and real knowledge of my teenager Banana, I design the question paper (which I give a nick name of my survey: Banana Survey) to connect these five actors: School, Local people, Germany, Positive banana, negative banana and other as and I abstract them to the following five questions:

From the diagram you can tell there are 25 girls, 25 boys a, I try to choose the sample from every age around 10 to 18.

By the statistical analysis of the survey I found the primary society parts they feel problems to adjust to the Germany society (D3): The way of thinking: 44%

Q1: When did you come to Germany? How old were you at that time?

Education problem: 40%

Q2: In your opinions, what’s the differences between German and China?

Hobby: 28%

Q3: What did you do actively to adjust Germany life?

Food: 24%

Q4: What did you do passively to adjust Germany life, or is there something you still refuse to change?

Shopping: 24% Drug or drink problem: 20%

Q5: Do you have some advises for the language school or the foundation?

The survey was last for 6 months from 09.2014 to 03.2015.I use the popular social website (Facebook and Renren) and mobile social software (WhatsApp and Weichat) to collect the results.

I sent in total 100 question papers by messages and emails and finally got 87 back. To make my survey more reasonable I did a shaker test to pick out the sample with the following conditions:

Keep distance/ social problem 20% Keyword of the impression of German: rigid, independent, lonely.

Life speed: 12% Awareness of sex: 10% And also another diagram of the common advises they give to the language campus (D4):

• Age between 10-18,when they came to Germany Flexible course for different level language learner 60% • Came to Germany after 2003 and already be here for at least 6 consecutive months.

Have more activities at weekend that also have local Germen to take part in 50%

• Finished the paper

German movie night 30%

• Didn’t came here with their family

Special apartments for music and art students 30%

• They all have education here or continue their education here

Separate space for gym and activity space 15%

Finally I picked 50 effective papers and (D1-D2) is the analysis diagram of them.

The social conflict research is based on the Banana research I did on the last page. To me, architectural design is an optimisation and feedback to society. The project cannot be lived alone and it must be suitable to the functions or the systems of the world. How to make my design on the construction of reality become one of the most pillars of my project.

SITE STORY

2010-2016

CUVRY BRACHE

I chose the site in Kreuzberg, Berlin.

And the location of the site is 13.44, 52.5, 13.46, 52.49 I’m familiar with this area. This part may be the most multi-culture area of Berlin.

People of this area are from all over the world. People here are friendly and for the other side as an area that becomes more and more popular but not yet.

The cost of living here is still cheaper than in other places. There are also a lot of international schools located here.

The buildings which I used to work in had one of the most famous street paintings--- Cuvry Brache. And I selected the block just in front of it as my design site.

One really interesting thing happened during the process of my project. The site

used to be the shelter of the homeless guys before the government sold the site to a Muchen investment company. At the end of last year, the policemen and government officers came to clean up all the homeless because the company decided to put a really luxury high-rise shopping and a residential building called “Cuvryhöfe” here, with the structure completely cover the famous painting. The only way for you to enjoy the “street painting” is to go into the mall or you paid.

The artist blu response by blacking the painting on the day 11th, Dec 2014.

And he left the following message in his blog, “In a way, it is a ‘fuck you’ gesture towards the city ‘as a silent protest to the excessive modern consumption concept.

touchable. Actually, it does not exist in the real world?

The physical world will still be there, but it won‘t change too much.

Architecture has become extinct for the construction itself, as a conclusion of the over-supply developing data transformation and the global internet.

But almost no one needs the real world anymore.

Life is so easy thanks to the Rilao technique.

We use data, we are satisfied by data, we‘re crazy about data. We are DATA!

We‘ll stop to build or create real things because the super Internet data analysis system Rilao makes all the things in our mind visible, feelable,

We have a huge background story of Rilao, who creates it, how it grows up, how it works, and what happened during all these processes.

For the movie project, we chose a concise period of our story, from people who will be represented as data package to you may be deleted as of a data package.

TIMELINE OF THE WORLD OF RILAO

Rilao

A long, long time ago…

the year 2067.

2013 – RILAO is developed as a system to make sense of the ever-expanding, always-unorganized data generated and, in turn, bombarding the citizens of earth.

2065 – American government become the first country to practice The Purge; in the process, you updating your Rilao, some of the people will be deleted by the government, but all of this is decorated as an ad to update your gene sequence.

2025 – RILAO is given its own intelligence, with the three laws of robotics as its core. It is able to start decision-making to advance the human race to levels of technology and social philosophy never before seen.

2030 – RILAO begins its search for suitable worlds for human colonization

2065 – Almost all the countries start plan The Purge…

2066 – A group of resistance fighters cum hackers start an uprising and attempt to restore RILAO to its form glory by feeding it (and through association) the US government false data, leading to their own downfall… and since now the plan MM completely failed…

2043 – Since RILAO was created, in the past 30 years, there are no wars, no terrorisms, no criminals; everything is so beautiful. But there is also no creations, no handcrafts, and no designs.

2067 – A few people stop using Rilao and go back to real life…

2048 – Rilao founds the planet Utopia M perfect for human beings…

2068 – The false data bugs the program of Rilao, and during the restore by the hackers and fighters, it changes the system‘s permissions; all the “humans” in the three laws of robotics are replaced by “the earth”.

2051 – Rilao develops a system that can resource data to a physical object.

2059 – According to the feedback Analysis of Rilao, the sources of the earth will be used out by the year 2070; the American government cuts down the report.

2060 – The leaders of all the countries attend the secret meeting of the move to another planet Utopia M. the techniques can’t build a Noah’s Ark for all the human beings. No results from the meeting.

2062 – In the second meeting, the Asian unit government make a proposal to MM that it’s possible to transport mostly people to Utopia M by the Rilao data to a physical system. And most countries pass this bill, and the preparation process will be finished by

2068 – Some countries started to limit the overuse of Rilao by the public

2069 – Rilao itself stops collecting data. And tries to find out the solution for saving the earth by analysis…

2070 – Counting Results _Delete “type” human_ {data package} _Delete “type” human_ {world} _rebuild “type” mountain_ _rebuild “type” grass_ …… _self-destruct A long, long time ago… there is a beautiful planet in the universe called the earth…

WHISPERING

Re-abstraced Hutong as calligraphy

With the recognition of the digitalized architecture as a current trend or phenomenon and the traditional Chinese architecture methods don‘t work well in the city process, architects are easily confused in terms of the solutions of Hutong resketch.

My project and research aimed to develop a newly available system for the Hutong reconstruction based on Chinese calligraphy. On the other side, I also tried to abstract a new diagram style based on Calligraphy.

I began with the study of Chinese Calligraphy in many fields, including 8 basic prototypes, drawing ways, power, directions and ink. The current Hutong system is similar to Chinese calligraphy in many ways, such as limited prototypes and also the ways of development. I represent the Chinese calligraphy by the construction of the ways in Hutong.

For the first stage, the element was composed just as ‘splashed ink‘. In other words, the particles are gradually emitted as diffusion of ink on paper. Second, using the motion path, the emitting particles start to move along a certain path and follow the movement by the painter‘s hand and power.

To analyse the movements of Calligraphy, I chose one of the masterpieces of Caoshu. And the meaning of the writing means one of the famous places in Hutong.

The work shows the atypical structure, the energy makes the canvas more dynamic. The drawing shows the attempts made to find the flow of the force from the invisible environment concerning the brush motion of Calligraphy.

Beyond the movement of the particles, the final form can be achieved by delivering the energy. Thus, in the last stage, types of physical were given to deform the movement. In this study, I tried to find ways to represent the line into various forms by controlling the magnitude, speed of the field, etc.

I presented the final result with a diagram of hutong in both image and structure.

The ink and calligraphy in China are referred to as the art of emptiness and lines. The emptiness often occupies or covers more than half of the canvas, filling mainly with lines rather than planes, breathing between Fengshui and yin-yang. The line is not static but dynamic, continuously rousing up vitality, like ‚the breathing and living entity in itself‘.

I try to resketch the profile of hutong by the basic 8 units of calligraphy. In my opinion, the original Hutong is more like art and had its own rules and melodies. The add parts of Hutong nowadays completely ignoring the rules of hutong and lack of planning.

In this stage, we explore the relationship between the lines from the last step and the space. The lines across the space can create the space or dissolve the space. We create the space based on the cellular automata rules to control the density. And we use the lines to redesign and reshape the space.

坚持和操守之外，一切皆可忽略或遗忘 ——天南

LUOFU PLAN The project is in the countryside of south China; though it‘s an economically developed area of China, the construction condition is still on the basic level.

We design a feedback system to consider the construction itself, with five main processes according to the real condition.

(Predesign, proposal, construction, achievement and feedback achievement. The owner, construction workers, tourists and manager are also parts of the process.

The basic aim of this project is to make a multi-objective design and set up a basic system to optimise the project in the countryside of China. Because of the variables of the project, we cannot control the final result; we can control every process and feedback to the design.

The research processing includes pre-survey and pro survey.

The main respondents are the construction workers and the tourists. In the countryside of China, construction workers are more like construction artisans; they are not professional or really educated, but they have a lot of experience that they under the space and the feature of the material. The tourists are the main users of the project. We surveyed before and after the construction and try to represent their behaviour mode with time geography to assist the design.

A demonstration is also an important part of the project, feedback design and variance fix.

The project is still going on until the year 2017.

SUBSTITUTE SOLUTION FOR THE CURRENT CONDITION IN CHINA

What could a young-generation Architect do during the Urbanization of China?

For thousands of years, traditional Chinese have had their tendency to experience overwhelming standards formulated by western industries. Even though architects themselves are performing an international practice as skyscrapers and high-rise buildings surprise citizens year by year, construction workers in the countryside or other less developed parts of China still follow the walking path of our ancestors.

We adopted a technical method --- code writing as a logical way to express our consideration about traditional Chinese architecture under the circumstance of parameterization. However, the attempt failed. New ideas and buildings rise in this field, but the concept of “parameterization” itself has been proven a fake proposition.

Therefore, we decided to start this project with a sincere respect to those experienced construction teams instead of critical thinking. And we marked every member a proper label such as decision-maker, constructer, visitor and expert. By taking this method, we shed more light on participants, ensuring that every useful feedback could be taken care of during the reconstruction process in this project.

For example, in the project platform plaza, according to the advice of construction workers, we use the traditional “layer stonewall” that has almost extinct in China instead of the normal brick wall. And in the project lychee garden, we use the stone texture feature to replace the manual pattern before. And there are more.

Consequently, the progress we achieved shows that we cannot jump directly into the modern Industrial system without the traditional Chinese construction craftsmen or use design formulas to quantify tourists‘ tastes. We cannot construct pure rationalism while ignoring the context at the same time. Therefore, we build a logical research system to understand our construction workers and share their unique experiences. We also use time geography theory to represent the behaviour modes of the tourists. What we intend is to call demonstration feedback our design. We’re not “revolutionist”, we are professional “fixer” with own points of view.

Those are my answers to how young Chinese architects act during the process of China’s Urbanlisation.

VULCAN

World’s Largest 3D-Printed Architectural Pavilion

Natural structures are analyzed and understood as hierarchies of very simple components organized into constructs from the smallest arrangement of material, through successive subassemblies to the most complex – the whole organism or body. Properties and performances emerge that are Human occupancy, in particular proximity and time lapse, will be the parameters that will define multispectral requirements. These requirements transfer to the phenotype, described by software- controlled parameters.

The basic aim of this project is to design a flexible dividable 3d-Printed structure as the customer require. And we also work on a system that will act as structure and fit the feature of the material at the same time. The development of these systems will originate from the definition of their simplest constituents integrating manufacturing constraints and assembly logic in parametric components.

The research processing includes experimentation and to know the feature of the material in order to build a stand able structure. We use silkworm, vault and many other parametric tools to help our design. This new combine knowledge will be applied in the design of structure system and unit. We set up a 2 week workshop during this process also to teach the basic knowledge of form founding and 3D-printing.

Consequently, the system also includes the development of parametric, by using this kind of new techniques we can get the feedback and improve data during the process.

-MAX WEBER flexible Interactive Square Design

Qin is an interactive square mainly design for the local citizens.

The site is located in the historical building areas of the city Qingdao. And the surrounding is very crowd. It‘s also one of the seas nearby sites and the natural condition (the wind direction and the sun direction) is really different from summer to winter.

The main aim of this project is to take full use of the underground space and also the natural condition of this area. So I start with the study of flexible systems.

I used diagrid as my study object and main focus on density structure, connection, porosity and grid itself, also of this kind of physical feature project to a really natural condition in this situation. According to the study I design a shell system based on 9 prototypes.

The building is an organism for system study experiences of diagrid knowledge and beauty.

Other way of narrate by photos

I happened to read that it‘s already 300 years passed since china came from China to Europe.

I‘m wondering what happened in Europe from the past 300 years, what s changed and what‘s kept.

I flop my mind to four areas: The history of china in Europe, Crazy thinker that hadn't been accept in his time age, The fashion capital

and the politic center. I research the first area as a timeline and the other 3 as time points. What's happen nowadays? What's already happened in the past? Did the history a loop? Are we repeat ourselves some how?

I tried to describe all of my mind movie with photos abstraction. I used nowadays time points cities photos to picture the old one and the old one to picture the newest.
