Preface

The Value of Kampung: A Bandung Case Study The manifesto of the past- with its egotistical inflexibility and self-referential nature, is no longer a relevant tool in dictating the future directions of architecture. Architecture can no longer rely upon a singular, proud idea, but rather must graciously accept the unexplainable relations of our world with welcoming arms. Architecture cannot be viewed as a static act that only adheres to the rules itself creates. In its purest essence, architecture is about crafting relationships. It is about encounter.True architecture lies within the creation of space whereby diverse and unpredictable encounters can occur. The painting La Tempesta (1506-08) by Italian Renaissance painter Giorgione marks a turning point in the visual depiction of Western landscape and the built environment. In this work, landscape is not depicted merely as a backdrop, but rather, as an essential setting to the meeting of two characters of vastly different backgrounds. On the right, a mother can be seen nurturing her child while on the left a soldier can be seen gazing into the distance We need an architecture of encounters.

Urban Informality Research

What is urban informality?

Urban Informality. Our Definition. The city of Caracas is situated in a valley, and its informal settlements ring the steep mountain slopes surrounding the central city. La Vega is one of the largest, with a population of 95,000 living within 400 hectares (1.5 sq. miles). Working with the San Rafael-Barrio Unido community and assessed the settlement’s conditions. Proyectos Arqui5, concluded that the vertical typography was limiting accessibility, services, and public spaces. Based on community-established priorities, the team devised the Integral Urban Project to help solve the main challenges. • A new road system was designed which allowed better access to public transportation and circulation. • A network of stairs which incorporated basic services such as electricity, drainage, sewer, gas, and water were designed. • Every spare space was integrated into walkways.

Quint Monroy Housing Elemental Architecture The Brief: To settle 100 families of the Quinta Monroy, in the same 5,000 sqm site that they have illegally occupied for the last 30 years. The site is located in the very center of Iquique, a city in the Chilean desert. “We had to work within the framework of the current Housing Policy, using a US$ 7,500 subsidy with which we had to pay for the land, the infrastructure and the architecture.” The Housing Project: • Achieved enough density without overcrowding • Works within the framework of the current Housing Policy • Locates families within the city centre and not on the periphery • Provides an affordable housing framework that allows families to extend and self-build their properties.

Precedent 3

Cape Town Township Safe Nodes, VPUU The VPUU project, in the Khayelitsha township Cape Town, uses social engagement and town planning as tools in fighting crime. A series of “active boxes” — spaza shops doubling as safe houses and community patrol bases — are planned along the main pedestrian routes to and from stations and taxi ranks. They will be open 24 hours a day to allow unquestioned access by anyone who feels threatened. The development is human-scale. “We also clearly defined the hierarchy of spaces, what was public, private, and semi-private.” The Project: • improves the living conditions for residents • creates safer environments for the local people through lighting and paving • Safe Nodes are created and ‘towers’ were built that can be seen from afar.

The result for Indonesian architecture was that prestigous buildings such as office blocks, ministries and banks were built in an ‘official’ modern architecture. The style was modern, but the structural methods used made allowance for the climate, while local ornamental motifs, in the form of wood carvings, appeared only sporadically.

Introduction


Figure 1: Kampung Cikapundung Source: Tahj Rosmarin

In informal architecture such as schools and hospitals, a style was applied that drew much more inspiration from local architectural traditions. For housing, the same architects also built in a modern idiom, but incorporated many more local features into the structure. The less formal the function, the more ‘Indonesian’ the architecture became.
