American cities are rediscovering the economic and social value of
urban manufacturing. However, urban manufacturing is often
invisible and poorly understood in terms of urban design,
architecture, and policy. The Design of Urban Manufacturing brings
a multidisciplinary approach to a new complex reality that urban
manufacturing now sits squarely at the intersection of research,
education, and neighborhood revitalization. Using cases studies
from across North America and beyond, this book presents innovative
approaches not only to the design of districts and buildings, but
to the design of policy as well: the special roles that
governments, local development corporations, and not-for-profit
organizations all have to play in supporting manufacturing. This
book presents current models for working neighborhoods where
factories enable fine-grained, mixed-use communities and
face-to-face contact while creatively solving the very real
problems of goods movement and functional buildings. Design
guidelines and policy recommendations are calibrated to different
types of production districts. The Design of Urban Manufacturing is
the essential resource for policy makers, designers, and students
in urban design, planning, and urban and economic development.
The fourth book in this series records the collaboration of Nick
Johnson, development director of Urban Splash, Manchester, with
Kahn Visiting Professors Sean Griffiths, Charles Holland, and Sam
Jacob, who worked with a studio of Yale students to investigate
alternative possibilities for development of the derelict
Bishopsgate Goods Yard in East London.
Urban Intersections: Sao Paolo documents the collaboration of
Edward P. Bass Fellow Katherine Farley, senior managing director of
the international real estate developer Tishman-Speyer and Yale
adjunct professor Deborah Berke, assisted by Noah Biklen, at the
Yale School of Architecture. The book features ways to examine the
process of urban design and development in Sao Paolo, Brazil, a
rapidly growing global mega-city, with all its attendant vitality
and contradictions. The work engages both the development issues of
schedule, phasing, risk, sustainability, value, and density along
with the architectural issues of scale, formal clarity, envelope
articulation, use of color and texture, and the relationship of
building to landscape. An essay by Victoria Grossman analyzes and
critiques development in Sao Paolo."
Developer Charles Atwood and architect David M. Schwarz with Yale
students designed pedestrian-friendly urban design projects in Las
Vegas. In context with the original 1968 Yale Las Vegas Studio,
Atwood and Schwarz asked students to learn from other cities how to
combat Las Vegas's lack of street-oriented urbanism.
This book focuses on architect Demetri Porphyrios and developer
Roger Madelin projects that highlight dialogues between historic
buildings and new districts to create city centers in a master plan
for Kings Cross London with the Yale School of Architecture.
This book presents the work and the advanced studios of Gregg
Pasquarelli in "Versioning 6.0," Galia Solomonoff in "Brooklyn
Civic Space," and Mario Gooden in "Global Typologies. It features
interviews and the work of the architects along with their studio
projects.
Rethinking Chongqing: Mixed-Use and Super-Dense presents the work
of a Edward P. Bass Studio at the Yale School of Architecture,
co-taught by real estate developer Vincent Lo, founder and chairman
of Shui-On Land, the Yale Bass Fellow, and Paul Katz, James von
Klemperer, and Forth Bagley, managing principal, design principal,
and senior associate, respectively, of the international
architecture firm Kohn Pedersen Fox Associates. Chongqing, one of
China's four directly-controlled municipalities, is a rapidly
growing economic hub of western China with a rich urban history. As
it seeks to expand its urbanized boundaries and redirect economic
growth towards the high-tech manufacturing and service industries,
it is also investing enormous resources in new transit
infrastructure, parks, cultural facilities, and other public
amenities. The site of the studio project is the soon to be
redeveloped site of the central rail terminal, a critical nexus of
infrastructure located near the riverside that offers rich
possibilities for re-thinking the relationship between transit,
public space, and mixed-use program in the city. The studio
investigated a diverse range of proposals for new scales,
typologies, and program mixes. The book includes a comprehensive
analysis of mixed-use projects in Shanghai, Hong Kong, and Japan,
interviews with the architects and developers, and insightful
essays by Wu Jiang and Daan Roggeveen, Rethinking Chongqing
demonstrates the role architects and developers might play in
shaping new paradigms for the development of western China's
emerging mega-cities.
This book follows the research and design work of three studios of
Ali Rahim of Contemporary Architecture Practice, Christopher
Sharples, and William Sharples of SHoP Architects. The three
studios are united by a focus on the future of mile-high design.
Ali Rahim and his students push the boundaries of emergent digital
techniques to generate an intelligent design for a high-rise in
Dubai. Christopher Sharples asks his studio to redefine the concept
of air travel and generate a hybrid airport of the future in New
Delhi, India. William Sharples sets the architectural framework for
space tourism by researching the commercial spaceport as an urban
gateway and catalyst for re-forming the city.
