Transformarea unui maidan in spatiu public comunitar / The conversion of a residual space into public space
Localizare: Bucuresti, sector 5
Stadiu: propunere pentru Bienala de Arhitectura
Anul: 2008
Situatia acestui maidan este simptomatica pentru cartierele bucurestene construite in ultimele decade ale comunismului prin demolarea mahalalelor traditionale. La limita dintre zona de blocuri si ceea ce a mai ramas nedemolat din vechea mahala exista intotdeauna o zona de conflict urbanistic - in fapt, un spatiu rezidual. Propunerea biroului nostru lua in calcul pastrarea locurilor de parcare existente, dupa cum si a altor functiuni aparute spontan (carciuma de cartier, spatiu pentru cainii comunitari, spatiu de joaca etc.) si reorganizarea acestora intr-un sistem coerent care sa tina cont de cele cateva vecinatati si relatiile contradictorii dintre acestea.
Location: Bucharest
Status: proposal for Bucharest Architecture Biennal
Year: 2008
The situation presented here is symptomatic for many Bucharest social housing areas developed in the last decades of communism, by the means of the former traditional neighborhoods demolishion. On the threshore born between the communist blocks area and what has remained undemolished from the former single-family houses neighbourhood, raises this urbanistic conflict zone. Our proposal kees all the spontaneous activities present on this no man's land (social pub, area for comunity dogs, playground, etc.) and organises these activities into a coherent system, considering the context problematics and all the contradictory relations developed between its various parts.
