Beschreibung
This optional module allows for various kinds of research studies. It is closely connected to the five units of the Liechtenstein School of Architecture and is usually part of ongoing research projects. The supervision consists of directing the students towards clear results within a given field of research. The individual study is reviewed within the respective unit.
Urban Design & Spatial Development Unit:
Sustainable building is on everyone's lips. But most approaches are aimed at short-term measures such as the installation of insulation panels or the outlawing of concrete. In order to create long-term sustainable living in high-quality buildings, however, far more differentiated and comprehensive considerations are required.
In his book ‹Gegen Wegwerfarchitektur› (Verlag Klaus Wagenbach, 2023) Vittorio Magnago Lampugnani outlines a brief history of urban design and architectural consumerism and builds his reflections on a culture of substantial sustainability on this basis. He writes against the extinction of nature through urban sprawl and argues in favour of a strategy of density: only the compact city can be ecological. In order to reduce the immense material and energy consumption of the construction industry, he calls for a rigorous turnaround: turning away from the development of further building land and the unrestrained consumption of raw materials. Not demolish and then build again, but rather convert, restore and further develop.
The longer a building lives, the more ecological it is. In this Independent Study, we first read Lampugnani's book and then research the relevant data and figures on the current situation in Liechtenstein. What is the current state of affairs in the country in relation to the issues Lampugnani addresses?
