      • 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.

58 | Juni 2023: Wissensproduktion / Knowledge Production

Sehr geehrte Lesende

Wieviel und welches Wissen wird in der Architektur «unausgesprochen» gelehrt? Wissen wird auch während des Forschungsprozesses in Zusammenarbeit er- und vermittelt oder von Schweizer Studienteilnehmenden (wissentlich) übers Smartphone hergegeben.

Wir hoffen, Sie wussten das noch nicht alles und wünschen viel informatives Lesevergnügen.

Design Studios as «Communities of Tacit Knowledge»

Hamish Lonergan | History and Theory of Urban Design, Prof. Dr. Tom Avermaete

Much of what architecture students learn in the studio is «tacit knowledge.» They develop the skills and sensibilities of architectural and urban design with practice, often under the supervision of instructors and peers, not by studying textbooks. Yet, despite its importance, we know relatively little about how this tacit form of knowing is transmitted. Within the research network TACK / Communities of Tacit Knowledge, we tried to open up the «black box» of knowledge production in the design studio.

An optimized spatial arrangement for cooling an urban landscape with the predominant wind is determined by testing and comparing a series of wind speed simulations. Digital modeling is instrumental to establish an iterative framework for designing.

Design Research Studios – A Research-based Design Process for Interdisciplinary Dialogue and Collaborative Thinking

Dr. Philipp Urech | Landscape Architecture, Prof. Christophe Girot || Dr. Nicolas Salliou, Planning of Landscape and Urban Systems (PLUS) | Prof. Dr. Adrienne Grêt-Regamey

Design Research Studios (DRS) are an education format directed to Bachelor and Master students in Architecture at ETH Zurich that integrate studies conducted by post-graduate researchers on complex issues like flood and urban heat. They offer an opportunity to develop landscape designs connecting people and their environment with the goal to strengthen societal and ecological resilience. The DRS in Madagascar is the last of a series of DRS led by Prof. Christophe Girot in collaboration with Prof. Adrienne Grêt-Regamey within Future Cities Lab (FCL) research programmes. Previous DRS dealt with urban cooling in Singapore and urban floods in Jakarta.

TimeUse+ – How do the Swiss Spend Their Time and Money? A Longitudinal Smartphone Diary Study with GPS

Caroline Winkler | Transport Planning and Systems (IVT), Prof. Kay W. Axhausen

How we spend our 24-hour days varies over time, be it by changes in one’s personal life or external forces like modifications to the built environment or government-level restrictions, as was the case during the recent COVID-19 pandemic. TimeUse+ is a novel survey methodology to collect data on individuals’ time use, travel, and expenditure behaviour to understand these shifts.

«… it matters what stories we tell to tell other stories with; … what thoughts think thoughts, what descriptions describe descriptions, what ties tie ties. It matters what stories make worlds, what worlds make stories». D.J. Haraway
In September 2022, a group of 18 architects met in the village of Tschlin in the Swiss Alps. In a non-hierarchical learning format, researchers and spatial practitioners came together to experiment with the ways we perform writing.

Science-design Loop for the Design of Resilient Urban Landscapes

Urban landscapes face significant challenges, as they must transform towards sustainability while remaining resilient. Urban landscape transformation is a complex task for landscape designers.

Inhabiting the Extensions

Across the different vernaculars of the world’s urban majorities, there is renewed bewilderment as to what is going on in the cities in which they reside and frequently self-build. Prices are unaffordable and they are either pushed out or strongly lured away from central locations.

Planetary Urbanisation: Agendas for Research and Action

18, 19, 20 October 2023, colloquium and exhibition.

Link to the video of this event

The conference debates themes including patterns and processes of urbanisation in agricultural territories, processes of extractivism, and the role of infrastructure, movements of people, goods and resources, and the state space in relation to urbanisation. It also addresses new conceptual instruments that scholars of planetary urbanisation have been developing and reflect on emerging design approaches related to territories of extended urbanisation.

About

This colloquium brings together transport planning researchers and practitioners to reflect on the growth processes of western or industrialized societies by identifying, assessing, and operating their transport infrastructures.

Transport planning as a discipline and practice has supported the growth processes of western or industrialized societies by identifying, assessing, and operating their transport infrastructures. In the last 150 years it was able to solve the capacity problems arising from population and industrial growth by using some of the growing national incomes to build more or better infrastructures for the growing number of vehicles. The challenges and the time frame of the greenhouse gas (GHG) accumulation change the way our societies should respond both in terms of our speed and in terms of the scale of our actions.

This colloquium brings together transport planning researchers and practitioners to reflect on these issues. The range of issues and suggestions can help to formulate strategies strong enough to fulfill the commitments which our societies have entered.

Day 1 brings together former students and researchers of the Institute for Transport Planning and Systems (IVT). Younger academics will present on day 2, while more senior researchers and practitioners will conclude on day 3. They will reflect on their ongoing work and on their experiences. They will draw their conclusions for our policy making and planning. The open discussions during and at the close of the colloquium will help defining our agendas for the future.
