      • The teaching component of the NSL seeks to impart the knowledge and skills needed to develop the standard strengths of spatial planning and their interaction as well as the ability to develop strategies for the solution of spatial problems. These are central prerequisites for a responsible and successful exercise of planning functions in the service of the public commonwealth and of private companies. Especially important in fufilling these prerequisites is the quality of university-level education: graduate and post-graduate work as well as professional development in spatial, urban and landscape planning. The ETH Zurich has offered programmes such as continuing education courses and post-graduate programmes (NDS, now MAS) since 1965. The NSL (Network City and Landscape) is responsible for these courses and programmes.

55 | September 2022: Ort / Place

Sehr geehrte Leserinnen und Leser

Was braucht ein «Ort»? Bzw. wie verhindert man, dass bei zunehmendem Verkehr und Verdichtung ein «Unort» daraus wird? Die Antwort hat, zumindest gemäss unserem Newsletter, etwas mit (Um-)Gestaltung, subjektiver Wahrnehmung, Methoden, Technik und/oder Handwerk zu tun.
Und scrollen Sie bis ganz nach unten, bei so vielen Anlässen ist bestimmt einer dabei, den Sie brauchen.

In diesem Sinne: viel informatives Lesevergnügen!

The E-Bike City: Bringing Amsterdam and Copenhagen to Switzerland?

Lukas Ballo | Verkehrsplanung, Prof. Dr. Kay W. Axhausen

Transport challenges in cities have never been more urgent. Mobility must be rapidly decarbonized and negative externalities of traffic are gaining more attention. On the other side, growing urban populations and economic growth generate ever more traffic.

Globescape: Understanding Place, Fostering Place-making

Michal Switalski, Marcelo Galleguillos, Laura Schalbetter, Johann Schuur | Planning of Landscapes and Urban Systems (PLUS), Prof. Dr. Adrienne Grêt-Regamey

Unprecedented urbanisation is transforming productive agricultural land into standardised settlements in which people are losing their sense of place and the motivation to initiate change. How people feel about, interact with, or want different places to be shaped, has been systematically researched through the lenses of place and place-making, which are useful when combining physical landscape changes within a people-centred perspective.

Field Reconnaissance

Benedikt Kowalewski | Landscape Architecture, Prof. Christophe Girot

As part of the design studio «Atomic Heart River», students in collaboration with the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) were asked to develop visionary concepts for the science campus of the future. In addition to point clouds, other design tools such as a GNSS drawing device and virtual reality applications were used to strengthen the site-specific qualities of the student’s designs.

Understanding a Place by Looking at its Soil

Stefan Breit, Uxía Varela, Insa Streit | Chair of Being Alive, Prof. Teresa Galí-Izard

Doing fieldwork – such as the study of soil, vegetation, or other living systems – is an essential task in the discipline of landscape architecture. It helps to understand and translate the existing conditions of a place to uncover its potential for future transformations. The Chair of Being Alive has organized a one-week residency in the Blenio Valley (Ticino) to learn and experiment with fieldwork methods.

Calculate or co-create?

Beauty may be in the eye of the beholder – yet how do we find consensus on a shared amenity such as a neighbourhood? We took a stroll with two ETH architects to discover how they see their role as mediators between the conflicting priorities of urban consolidation, functionalism and aesthetics.  Article in ETH Globe (online).

Interkantonal koordiniertes Monitoring Bauen ausserhalb Bauzonen

Andreas Moser, Dr. Ulrike Wissen Hayek, Prof. Dr. Adrienne Grêt-Regamey | Planung von Landschaft und Urbanen Systemen – PLUS; Dr. Richard R. Hollenweger | Direction des autorisations de construire (DAC) - État de Vaud

Am 3. Schweizer Landschaftskongress in Rapperswil hat die ETH Zürich in Kooperation mit dem Kanton Waadt das Projekt für ein interkantonal koordiniertes Monitoring zum Bauen ausserhalb der Bauzonen vorgestellt. Das Ziel des Projekts ist die partizipative Entwicklung von Indikatoren basierend auf bestehenden Datengrundlagen. Wer den Posterbeitrag verpasst hat, kann ihn hier ansehen.

Portrait Sibylle Wälty

If you work in Zurich, you should be able to live there – but where exactly?

Sibylle Wälty | ETH Wohnforum – ETH CASE

Much controversy surrounds the SBB Neugasse project in the city Zurich. It will be put to the vote for Zurich citizens on 25 September. On a 30-​hectare site in a well-​connected location, only 375 flats are envisaged. This means that there is not sufficient densification, not as much housing is being created as would be possible. Spatial development scientist Sibylle Wälty shows how this area could contribute to alleviating the housing shortage. To the article on the ETH «Zukunftsblog»

In Zurich, the acceptance of residential densification projects depends on perceptions of how they will impact housing costs and rent. Pictured here: a neighbourhood in north Zurich. (Photograph: KEYSTONE / Christian Beutler)

“Yes, but not like this!” – Why densification often lacks public acceptance

David Kaufmann | Raumentwicklung und Stadtpolitik (SPUR)

Densification is a fundamental principle of urban planning and development today. Nevertheless, it often encounters local resistance. A group of ETH researchers has now systematically investigated factors influencing public acceptance of densification, focusing on the canton of Zurich and six cities of global importance. One key factor: affordable housing. Article at ETH News
