ELECTIVE PROJECT II Waterfront Pavilion – Story for the Shipyard

  The topic of the course – Waterfront Pavilion – Story for the Shipyard, is describing the task for architectural space located in the post-industrial area of the Shipyard in Gdansk..

The goal of the task is to design the space oriented on the goals of the Sustainable Development and the problems related to the Climate Changes. The idea is to use green and blue solutions, to think about energy and recycled materials, to be close to people,  close to water, and closer to nature. 

What is the task? Try to reinvent the Shipyard area, tell what is important for you in that district of Gdansk. Find your own inspiration and play with the form. Think about unconventional function for the object and choose  its surprising location.

 You will work in small groups to discuss the problem and  to propose the  Story for the Shipyard  in a form of a Waterfront Pavilion and in a short video.

 Your pavilion is to make people more aware about a Sustainable Development and to make space more attractive and more friendly – for the users and for the environment.

Architectural project V Design for all 2023/24

Theory of architectural design V. Design for all

The aim of the course is to increase awareness of the needs of people with special needs and the idea of universal design. The subject is to introduce the social and legal conditions of the profession of architect, focused on the needs of all vulnerable user groups, including people with disabilities and the elderly. Knowledge of solutions related to Design for All is necessary due to the implementation of directives and standards whose task is to coordinate activities aimed at increasing the accessibility to space, products and services.

Elective Project II: MOVABLE HOUSE – the home of a Modern Nomad

 


As part of the elective seminar, students working in groups of 3 people will prepare architectural and lighting concept for an international competition: "MOVABLE HOUSE – The Home of a Modern Nomad " organized by the Polish Lighting Industry Association), co-organized by Goczołowie Architekci OVO Grąbczewscy Architects and the SOMA Agency, the organizer of the International LIGHT Fair.

More information here about the competition here: https://lightfair.pl/green-shoots-competition/

The subject of the competition work is a mobile house on wheels. It can be an adaptation for a moving house, a van, a bus, or even a tinplate with "lorry" approval. It can also be a structure built from scratch on the chassis offered by automotive companies, e.g. on the chassis for installation of Fiat Ducato. Chassis can have different wheelbase lengths, different types of overhang behind the rear axle and different track widths.

The Jury expects unconventional design solutions with the use of specific design solutions (i.e. certain types of chassis) meeting the technical parameters and regulations on vehicle equipment.

An important role in the designed MOVABLE HOUSE might be the analysis of the impact of both natural and artificial light on the character and interior and exterior space of a house on wheels, to create a specific style in it.

The project may be purely theoretical. It is important to present the line of thought and reasons for the next creative design decisions, as well as to present the details. When designing, the role of lighting in the designed solution and, if it is important, in its immediate surroundings, should be taken into account, as well as the visual and impression effect caused by light. You should also remember about the safety of use related to the distribution of the luminous flux and the safety resulting from connection to the electric power supply.

The project requires:
• General explanation of the principles of building the structure, arrangement of rooms and buildings internal, distribution of internal installations, identification of the materials used
• Explanations of the lighting used for interior lighting and, if it results from the design, in its immediate vicinity, how it is used and how it is supplied with electricity

When designing and creating an object or interior, use KANLUX lighting solutions with appropriate lighting parameters and decorative values. The type or types of lighting solutions used is whichever, provided that they form a single, coherent whole with the architectural and spatial elements of the house structure on wheels. They must also meet the requirements of the function for which they are applied.

TOPIC

The subject of the semester project is the revitalization of one of the post-shipyard hall (No. 38 A) located at the Imperial Shipyard in Gdansk. The area of the Imperial Shipyard is currently the subject of a search for a new functional formula in the existing structure of post-industrial halls.

Architektury Awifauny DIY.

Ideą seminarium jest podkreślenie istnienia ptaków w mieście, uwrażliwienie na problemy i zagrożenia, jakie stwarzają ptakom ludzie. Koncentrując się na tym aspekcie, seminarium obejmie praktyczne wykorzystanie wiedzy teoretycznej dostarczonej przez eksperta ornitologa wraz z nabytymi podczas trwania seminarium umiejętnościami majsterkowania przy projektowaniu architektonicznym  budki lęgowej/karmnika oraz późniejszym jej stworzeniu. Co więcej, podejście jest multidyscyplinarne i polega na połączeniu sztywnej wiedzy „książkowej” zdobytej poprzez transfer wiedzy, którą można utrwalić poprzez praktyczne uczenie progresywne w pamięci długotrwałej, w tym nabycie nowych umiejętności motorycznych w korzystaniu z narzędzi warsztatowych. Zajęcia mają na celu nauczyć jak projektować oraz budować/materializować pomysły architektoniczne narysowane na papierze.

Sociology of Space

The course is aimed at discussing the significance of the city as a topic of sociological analysis. During the seminar students will discuss the relation between sociology, architecture and space. Moreover, the debate will touch on the field of culture and its role in (re)creating and (re)constructing space. Discussions will also be related to the aspect of interactions in time and space. Contemporary dilemmas and challenges in this area will be analyzed throughout the course of the semester. In addition, during the seminar several other topics will be introduced, including inhabiting public spaces and the role of citizens in the process of shaping their social surrounding.

Art Composition

Five Words. Society and Politics. What? By What?

General assumptions.

The aim of the proposed two artistic compositions is a creative processing of emotions related to the socio-political issues. In general, it is about personal views and feelings, but it must be also considered that architects are operating in a specific socio-political context and respond to very specific needs of various individuals and to the expectations of different social and political groups as well. The creativity of architects is based on specific legal acts of a given country and region.
