EUROPAN 8

Urbanidad Europea y proyectos estratégicos.

1. Urbanising with infrastructures

Infrastructures fragment the suburban space. How to integrate them in the construction of the city?

1-A [Crossing networks] What kind of connections or urban interfaces can be created to overcome the barriers created by heavy networks (railways, motorways...)? Sites Chateauroux (France), Cordoba (Spain), Haarlem (Netherlands), Halle (Germany), Logroño (Spain), Reggio Calabria (Italy), Sagunto (Spain), Vienna (Austria)

1-B [Creating new polarities through networks] Can networks become an asset for creating new urban centres?

Locations Bergen (Norway), Göteborg (Sweden), Hamar (Norway), Zwolle (Netherlands)

 

2. Generating the new

To curb urban sprawl and preserve the natural territory, the city expands on vacant land or on empty sites. How can new neighbourhoods be generated there?

2-A [Transform in phases] Large, partly or fully obsolete industrial sites offer land for the development of urban neighbourhoods.

How to manage your development over time?

Sites

Bergamo (Italy), Chalan/Saône (France), Ghlin Mons (Belgium), Hamburg (Germany), Lille (France), Varberg (Sweden), Waidhofen (Austria), Waremme (Belgium)

2-B [Replace with a new piece of town]

Some urban sites with no built heritage value require the creation of entirely new urban fragments. How to introduce them and connect them to their context? Sites Alkmaar (Netherlands), Dordrecht (Netherlands), Kirkenes (Norway), Kleines Dreieck Zittau, Hradeck, Bogatynia (Germany), Lahti (Finland), Latina (Italy), Milton Keynes (UK), Pilsen (Czech Republic)

2-C [Extending urban boundaries]

How can urban edge sites be used strategically to respond to growth?

Sites Alcazar de San Juan (Spain), Amstetten (Austria), Gersthofen (Germany), Istanbul Kucukcek (Turkey), Maribor (Slovenia), Valladolid (Spain)

 

3. Recycling the fabric The suburban city has generated hybrid urban fabrics made up of fragmented spaces and juxtaposed objects. How can these heterogeneous neighbourhoods be restructured to facilitate urban living?

3-A [Evolve uses: transform or replace buildings]

Some areas were conceived as mono-functional enclaves (habitat, industry, barracks...).

How to allocate them spatially to contemporary urban uses?

Sites

Aulla (Italy), Budapest (Hungary), Cagliari (Italy), Kristiansand (Norway), Milazzo (Italy), Prague (Czech Republic), Stonebridge (United Kingdom), Tilburg (Netherlands), Zagreb (Croatia)

3-B [Strengthening existing neighbourhoods]

How to give urban dynamics to de-qualified city fragments by injecting them with new functions and a structure of public spaces?

Sites

Cáceres (Spain), Dijon (France), Enschede (Netherlands), Erfurt (Germany), La Courneuve (France), Lauterach (Austria), Luckenwalde (Germany), Neu-Ulm (Germany), Schwechat (Austria), Stavanger (Norway)

 

4. Building with nature

The citizens' demand to live in the city and at the same time close to nature raises the following question:

How to build urban landscapes that maintain a balance between buildings and natural elements?

4-A [Building in nature]

How to combine nature and construction on natural sites to be developed?

Sites

Chiampo (Italy), Dubrovnik (Croatia), Kemi (Finland), Kuopio (Finland), Palermo (Italy), Palmela (Portugal), Riga (Latvia)

4-B [Valorising an urban landscape]

How should the relationship between urban space and natural territory be approached, whether it is a question of building in front of a natural heritage or creating a natural landscape linked to the built environment?

Sites

Brezice (Slovenia), Figuera da Foz (Portugal), Hénin-Carvin (France), Rome (Italy), Cartes (Spain), Sintra (Portugal)

 

5. Renovate, for which inhabitants?

Sometimes urban change involves tearing down existing space to create new space. Does this renewal make it possible not to displace the population?

5A: [Managing the social mix]

How to make the old population coexist with the new?

Sites

Antalya Kepez (Turkey), Ceuta (Spain), Coimbra (Portugal), Funchal (Portugal), Istanbul, Sumer, (Turkey), Larnaca (Cyprus), Leinefelde (Germany), Livorno (Italy), Oldham (United Kingdom)
