Szociális építészet - építészeti beavatkozások, mint a társadalmi fejlesztés eszközei

A KÉK Kertmozi második alkalmával Samuel Mockbee amerikai építészről és az általa alapított építési és oktatási programról, a Rural Studio-ról szóló dokumentumfilmet vetítjük. Mockbee és diákjai az Auburn University építészeti tanszékének szakmai támogatásával Alabama legszegényebb térségében élő családok lakókörülményeinek és tágabb értelemben vett lakókörnyezetének javítását tűzték célul.

A vetítés után beszélgetés, meghívott vendégek: Gulyás Erzsébet és Pozsár Péter, aReflekt Stúdió építészei. Az idén alakult stúdió egy olyan nonprofit építészeti vállalkozás, mely a szociális építészet magyarországi helyzetével és lehetőségeivel foglalkozik. A nyáron indult BERET10+1 programról fognak mesélni.

A filmet angol nyelven, magyar felirattal vetítik.

letter from architecture for humanity June 2011: Building Futures Using the Power of Design


After 124 newsletters I'd think we'd begin to run out of things to say but we just keep building hope hand in hand with communities around the world.

In Japan, we've been working and building alongside communities on both short term economic development project, youth facilities and long term village reconstruction. Our project team now includes traditional carpenters of the area and rob the human bulldozer. Getting connectivity in the rural villages has been tough so the team has been using youtube via mobile phones to do internal drawing reviews - the plus side, capturing surprise guests at our construction site!

In Haiti, reconstruction continues apace with foundations our second school complete and construction is set to begin two more. In Lesotho, our Football for Hope program saw the opening of a fifth center in a fifth country. Watch Axel Stelter take you on a walk-through of the completed center on his final day as an Architecture for Humanity design fellow (at least for this tour of duty). On Tuesday we announce our biggest project in the US since Hurricane Katrina. 'We are super stoked' were the exact words from the community board meeting on Thursday night - and so are we. Any guesses? Tweet your answer at @archforhumanity with #nextproject by Monday night - winner gets some sweet swag (Hint 0:00:12).

On Wednesday we found out our idea to bring accountability and transparency to international aid and development was selected out of hundreds to compete for funding from chase community giving. Next week co-founder Cameron has 8 minutes to present our idea and has a one in five chance of taking the idea one step closer to reality. That day we launch 'Chapter Project Grants' - $2500 grants that we are making to existing and new chapter projects in need of funding. Chapter members - check out site for details.

Finally this weekend we launched our third kickstarter project, this time to bring arts into schools and community buildings in Haiti. With the funding we will commission a number of Haitian and international artists to create an in-situ piece. Believe in the arts? kickstart us today!

Read below for more details on those and other programs, job opportunities and upcoming events.

Cheers,

RURAL DEVELOPMENT
BUILDING CAMP 






The goal of the camp - besides the rural development and making connection between the students and the local people - is to develop the feeling of the ownership of the common places and the community center.
According to the above mentioned goals, the responsibility of the construction is shared between the residents and the volunteers.
The events during the building camp organized in a co-operation by the local people and students.

reflekt studio

Reflekt Studio - Social architecture
I believe that architecture today needs to reflect on the task and possibilities which are inherently its own. Architecture is not a vehicle or a symbol for things that do not belong to its essence.
(Peter Zumthor: Thinking of architecture- Resistance)
Reflekt Studio is a non-profit organization, founded by two architects. One of the principles is to relay an approach which highlighted the coherence between the social development and the architectural intervention. The researches of the Studio is about the social/rural architecture, how the form and the function of the places determinate the life of the local community.
The Studio engaged in the role of the architecture within the society.
Using up the existing experiences of architecture, sociology, complex project of urban and rural development is essential.
But the key role in the practice of Reflekt Studio is the practice itself. One of the main goals is to integrate the social and complex viewpoint into the architectural education, through working together with students, residents and through the achievement of building in rural area. The fellows of the partners office (UI Architects) are present workshops at the Moholy-Nagy Art and Design University.
