As living conditions among the world’s poor continue to decline, with more and more people occupying slums and shantytowns, architects and artists are attempting to apply new models of collaboration and sustainability to social crisis. Moderators of Change: Architecture That Helps showcases 20 international projects by architects, designers and artists that provide socially responsible models of urban design. By inviting users to collaborate in the design and building process, and by working with new economic models, these practitioners have realized projects that have had profound, positive effects with just a minimum investment of money and materials. Moderators of Change includes schools, libraries, gardens, conversions and art projects, as well as essays by Regina Bittner, Carson Chan, Luis Fernández-Galiano, Ronald Rael, Anne Schmedding and Christian Welzbacher.

Book Description paperback. Condition: Neu. Neu -Die gesellschaftliche Verantwortung von Architektur tritt gegenwärtig wieder verstärkt in den Blick von Öffentlichkeit und Politik. Immer mehr Menschen leben weltweit unter unzureichenden Lebens- und Wohnbedingungen, etwa in Slums und Favelas. Einige Architekten und Künstler widmen sich der Frage, wie man mit neuen gestalterischen Ansätzen aktiv zur Lösung sozialer Probleme beitragen kann. Über die direkte Einbeziehung der Nutzer in den Entwurfs- und Bauprozess und mit ökonomischen Modellen haben sie Projekte realisiert, die mit geringem Einsatz von Geld und Material tiefgreifend positive Wirkungen gebracht haben: Neben umfassenden urbanen Infrastrukturen präsentiert das Buch auch beispielgebende Projekte wie Schulen, Bibliotheken, Gärten, Umbauten und Kunstprojekte. Am Beispiel von 20 realisierten Projekten sowie künstlerischen Positionen aus der ganzen Welt zeigt die Publikation, wie innovative Designlösungen sozialen Wandel hervorrufen.

Book Description Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Politics and the public are currently once again focusing on the socially responsible role of architecture. More and more people around the world live under unacceptable conditions, for instance in slums and shantytowns. Several architects and artists are devoting themselves to the question of how to actively contribute to solving social problems with new types of designs. By directly including users in the design and building process and working with new economic models, they have realized projects that have had profound, positive effects with just a minimum investment of money and materials: besides comprehensive urban infrastructures, this volume presents model projects such as schools, libraries, gardens, converted buildings, and art projects.Based on twenty projects that have been implemented as well as stances taken by artists from throughout the world, this publication demonstrates how innovative design solutions can transform society.
