SUMMARY:The Anna Heringer “Essential Beauty” exhibition\, curated by Luis Fernández-Galiano and organised by Fundación ICO\, opens at the Museo ICO on Wednesday 9 February
DESCRIPTION:https://affordablehousingactivation.org/web/app/uploads/2022/03/ANNA-HERINGER-1.mp4\n  \nThe exhibition\, organised by the ICO Foundation and curated by Luis Fernández-Galiano\, can be visited from 9 February to 8 May 2022.    \nAnna Heringer (Rosenheim\, Germany\, 1977)\, a visionary and multi-award-winning architect with work on three continents\, is committed to the use of local materials and techniques to offer a better future. Her work is based on the exploration and use of architecture as a means to support local economies and promote ecological balance.    \nFor her: “Sustainability is synonymous with beauty\, and what defines the aesthetic and sustainable value of a building is that it is in harmony with its design\, structure\, technique and use of materials\, as well as in relation to its location\, the environment\, the user and the socio-cultural context”. The visit proposes a journey through the work and philosophy of Anna Heringer\, who is deeply interested in the sustainable development of our society and the built environment.    \nShe focuses her work on the use of local materials and techniques to create buildings that are characteristic of the place where they are located. These concepts are reflected in the exhibition; in addition\, the presentation of the projects is supported by textiles made by Bangladeshi women who reproduce the floor plans and elevations of their buildings. The exhibition is completed with texts (such as the Laufen Manifesto\, promoted by the architect herself)\, photographs\, drawings and maquettes that trace a route through the principal projects undertaken by Anna Heringer since 2006.    \nIn all her works she applies one of the most important lessons learned in Rudrapur\, the rural village in Bangladesh where she built her first project – the METI Rural School\, Aga Khan Award 2007 – and where\, today\, she continues to work and collaborate in initiatives for local progress: that the most successful development strategy consists of relying on existing and readily available resources and making the most of them\, rather than relying on external systems.    \nThis leads it to involve local communities in the construction of all its projects\, not only as a way of ensuring that they meet the needs for which they were designed\, but also as a means of providing training in traditional construction techniques to enable the future personal and professional development of its members. Not forgetting that this type of involvement develops a sense of belonging in the community that guarantees the proper and lasting conservation of the buildings. This way of working is embodied in his maxim “Form follows love” which\, in contrast to Louis Sullivan’s famous “Form follows function”\, exemplifies the revolutionary nature of his conception of architecture.   \nMoreover\, with projects such as the RoSana Centre guesthouse – winner of a New European Bauhaus Award in 2021 – in Germany\, or the ecotourism project at Cortijo La Donaira in Ronda\, Spain – both developed in collaboration with Martin Rauch – he has demonstrated that building with earth\, a fundamental element in all his architecture\, is perfectly viable in today’s Europe.

SUMMARY:Large-Scale Transformation\, a New Sustainability Challenge. Kleiburg in Amsterdam\, Grand Parc in Bordeaux.
DESCRIPTION:The exhibition puts into dialogue two of the most relevant examples of the transformation of housing blocks built in the 60s and 70s in Europe\, winners of the European Union Prize for Contemporary Architecture – Mies van der Rohe Award.      \nBased on these examples\, presented through photographs\, texts\, models and videos\, other projects with similar characteristics that were demolished are related by means of a timeline. Other examples of collective housing built more recently are presented with models and two texts\, one by Francis Rambeft and the other by Josep Maria Montaner and Zaida Muxí\, serve to introduce the theme and follow the narrative thread of the exhibition.   \nAs Josep Maria Montaner and Zaida Muxí write\, “In general\, emblematic examples of large-scale collective housing complexes are studied at the time they were designed\, built and inaugurated\, but very little has been studied and written about how each of these buildings evolved and adapted\, to find out what their legacy really was. Houses are for living\, and their maintenance and adaptability is essential. Therefore\, the key to progress lies in how and what we can learn from experience.    \nModern collective housing is living heritage\, so it is important to know its transformations and appropriations; to understand what have been the qualities of construction and remodelling facilities”. Based on this reflection\, the exhibition allows us to debate about these housing blocks that are found in most European cities\, how to deal with them in order to improve the living conditions of their inhabitants\, and at the same time to do so by looking at examples of new collective housing blocks built in recent years.   \nThe exhibition shows two exemplary projects for their transformation with the aim of improving the quality of life of their inhabitants\, taking each of them into account.  It also provides a framework in which to address specific proposals on access to housing\, based on concrete examples that can be copied\, adapting them to the specific contexts of each place.   \nThree years ago\, the renovation of one of the largest apartment buildings in the Netherlands\, called Kleiburg\, received the European Union Prize for Contemporary Architecture – Mies van der Rohe Award 2017. The Prize had never been won by a collective housing project until then. Just a year ago\, a different group of jury members decided to award the 2019 Prize to the transformation of three social housing blocks in Bordeaux.   \nIn both cases\, the existing buildings belonged to the massive construction wave that occurred in the 1960s in European cities. They are two successful survivors who escaped the wrecking ball. In the exhibition\, these two protagonists illustrate how strategic and sensible transformations are the alternative to demolition. \nProjects included in the exhibition:  \n\nDeFiat Kleiburg\, Amsterdam\, XVW architectuur; NL Architects  \nTransformation of 530 dwellings – Grand Pare Bordeaux\, Bordeaux\, Lacaton & Vassal architectes; Frédéric Druot Architecture; Christophe Hutin Architeeture  \nHousing on Giudecca\, Giudecca\, Valle Architetti Associati  \nFriedrichstadt Housing Block\, Berlin\, Aldo Rossi  \nRue de Meaux Housing Complex\, Paris\, Renzo Piano Building Workshop  \nResidential Housing KNSM-Eiland\, Amsterdam\, Prof. Kollhoff Generalplanungs-GmbH Shipboy Housing\, Helsinki\, Helin & Co Architects  \nBorneo Sporenburg\, Amsterdam\, West 8 urban design & landscape architecture b.v.

SUMMARY:The Vienna Model - Housing for the City of the 21st Century
DESCRIPTION:Based on urban and social aspects\, not only have projects of exceptional quality been realised throughout the city\, but also entire neighbourhoods have been revitalised or new ones created. These concepts\, whose historical roots go back to “Red Vienna”\, represent dynamic opportunities to improve the quality of life in the contemporary metropolis by creating exemplary living environments.  \nThe Vienna Model: Housing for the City of the 21st Century takes a look at sixty landmark projects from the last 100 years. It also pays special attention to the art in public space that has accompanied municipally owned housing since the First Republic. \n  \n\nExhibition curated by Wolfgang Förster and William Menking \nExhibition design by MVD Austria \nOrganised in Madrid by Lorenzo Kárász\, director of Guiding Architects Barcelona \nWith the support of the City of Vienna\, the Austrian Cultural Forum Madrid\, the Official Architects’ Association of Madrid (COAM) within the AHA (Affordable Housing Activation) UIA International Forum 2022

SUMMARY:MORE ARCHITECTS – a proposal of CAU BRASIL to foster decent housing for all 
DESCRIPTION:Mostrar las acciones de la CAU en este ámbito\, tal como se describe en https://caubr.gov.br/moradiadigna/  \nEn Brasil\, existe una Ley Federal que garantiza asistencia técnica pública y gratuita a familias de bajos ingresos para el diseño y construcción de viviendas sociales\, pero el gobierno en geral no ha destinado recursos a proyectos ni ha priorizado la implementación de esta Ley. El evento mostrará el CAU como referente para la consecución de estos objetivos\, ilustrando la importancia de los consejos profesionales y los organismos reguladores de la arquitectura y el urbanismo como actores en la financiación de ATHIS (Asistencia Técnica para Vivienda de Interés Social) y mejoramientos de viviendas.  \nEntre 2015 y 2021\, CAU fue uno de los principales agentes de financiación de vivienda en el país\, con más de 200 acciones y más de 9 millones de reales invertidos. El programa MAIS ARQUITETOS\, prioridad de la actual administración\, tiene como objetivo sensibilizar a la sociedad sobre la vivienda digna como un derecho de todos. El año pasado\, destinó 1 millón de reales a 9 proyectos repartidos por todo Brasil\, en todas sus regiones. En esta presentación\, pretendemos difundir los resultados preliminares del trabajo en curso y llevar este proyecto a la AHA\, que puede ser replicado y adaptado en todo el mundo.  \nAlgunos de los proyectos seleccionados se resumen en los siguientes vídeos: \nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KlY6MthUjNo \n \nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7cnU-rffog \n \nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s79bIKLFGWA \n \nStreaming Link:\nhttps://youtu.be/Z4dyjYO7n8Y \nPrograma \n\nDiscurso de apertura de la presidenta Nadia Somekh\nPresentación general del programa MÁS ARQUITECTOS/MORE ARCHITECTS/MAIS ARQUITETOS – 10 minutos \nIntroducción al Aviso de Promoción de Asistencia Técnica 2021\nPresentación de resultados  \nComentarios de Camila Jordan  \nComentarios de Elisabete França  \nComentarios de Sérgio Magalhães  \nCierre\n\nPonentes: \n\nAna Cristina Lima Barreiros \nCamila Jordan \nElisabete França  \nNádia Somekh \nSergio Magalhães \nEquipo 1: laboratorio de la Ciudad-Belém \nEquipo 2: Universidad Brasilia-Brasilia \nEquipo 3: Asociación “Futuro Melhor”- Sao Paulo \nEquipo 4: Unión por la Vivienda Popular- Conde\, Estado de Paraíba \nEquipo 5: Instituto de Arquitectos de Brasil-Maringá \nEquipo 6: Centro Socio-pastoral Nuestra Señora de la Concepción- Natal \nEquipo 7: Panã Arquitetura Social \nEquipo 8: Sindicato de Arquitectos de Santa Catarina \nEquipo 9: Taramela Asistencia Técnica \n\nOrganizado por:   \nEl Consejo de Arquitectura y Urbanismo de Brasil (CAU Brasil)\, autarquía federal que tiene la función de orientar\, disciplinar y fiscalizar el ejercicio de la profesión de arquitectura y urbanismo.
