JCJ ARCHITECTURE’s Post

This was such a great conversation to be a part of and so relevant to the future of Sacramento and the 2040 General Plan! Cities need to radically change and adapt to increasing populations, climate change, remote work and equitable housing before it's too late! #sacramento #architecture #urbanplanning #sustainabledesign

Can #historicalneighbourhoods keep the pace with the rapid transformations that are affecting the large #metropolises of our planet? The recent publication of "Discontinuity in Contemporary Cities - The ILAUD Experience: Shanghai's Urban Voids as an Opportunity for Regeneration" by ILAUD Press reminded us of the wonderful experience that we had in Shanghai back in 2019. At that time, in fact, we were studying at Tongji University, and we had the chance to participate to one of the legendary workshops organized by the International Laboratory of Architecture & Urban Design (#ILAUD), founded by Italian architect #GiancarloDeCarlo (1919-2005). The theme of the workshop was "Discontinuity in Contemporary Cities" and participants were asked to reflect on the rapid transformations that were affecting the city of #Shanghai, and to imagine a #project of #urbanregeneration for a historical lilong neighbourhood built in the 1920s.

HOW CHRISTOPHER ALEXANDER'S "FIFTEEN PROPERTIES" CAN GUIDE US TO CREATE BUILDINGS AND NEIGHBORHOODS THAT ARE MORE ALIVE: The legendary architect's later magnum opus 'The Nature of Order,' not as well known as his earlier work, contains a hidden treasury of geometric resources for designers. (Part of a series presenting topics for discussion at the upcoming International Making Cities Livable conference in Cortona, Italy, October 29-November 1, 2024. The conference, titled "The Ecology of Place: Learning from Nature, Culture, and History," will feature a focus on the work of Christopher Alexander, as well as others.) https://lnkd.in/gE3A8jEy
