Architectural Positions – Practices

Our assignment for the students was to imagine an entirely different development for a currently ‘vacant’ plot within the area of M4H in Rotterdam – one that is not market-driven, but that answers to local, national and even global questions, and that carefully considers all the site-specific conditions. Students had to form a critical position on how to ‘develop’ the site and define its potential through a range of explorative research methods, each with the focus on another topic.

The result is a collection of six different positions on how to approach a process of design of this specific site, combined into a book of guidelines, with a.o. a new scale, not based on humans, but on other life forms.

We combined all the work in a booklet
For the final session we set up a playful round table to forge a dynamic exchange between the different positions, exploring contradictions and parallels.
