WATER EVER III
WATER EVER CENTERS AROUND DESIGNING WITH WATER CHALLENGES AT THE CORE. THE ESCALATION OF EXTREME CONDITIONS LINKED TO WATER, SUCH AS DROUGHT OR FLOODING, AND THEIR GEOGRAPHIC, SOCIAL, AND ECONOMIC RAMIFICATIONS, ILLUSTRATES THE FRAGILITY OF OUR LIVING AND BUILT ENVIRONMENTS. THE STUDIO BRIEF PAVES THE WAY FOR STUDENTS TO EXPLORE WATER CHALLENGES AS THE FOCUS OF EXPERIMENTAL TYPOLOGIES AT VARIOUS SCALES IN SPECIFIC SITES. EACH GROUP ADDRESSES A PARTICULAR WATER ISSUE: SCARCITY, EXCESS, OR BOTH, IN A SITE THEY HAD PERSONAL INSIGHTS OR RESEARCH INTEREST. OUR RESEARCH INCLUDED EXAMPLES OF RAINWATER, DEW, AND FOG HARVESTING, PROJECTS RETAINING WATER TO REVITALIZE ARID AREAS, SPONGE CITY DESIGNS, AND WATER INTEGRATION IN ARCHITECTURE AS A COMMUNITY RESOURCE. IN A SUPPLEMENTARY LECTURE SERIES, VARIOUS LECTURERS PROVIDED INSIGHTS INTO WATER TOPICS LINKED TO URBAN, TERRITORIAL, OR ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN CHALLENGES. PROJECTS OF THE CHAIR OF ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN AND PARTICIPATION DEVELOP A SENSIBILITY TO CONTEXTUAL FACTORS FROM WHICH INVENTION CAN ARISE. CONCEPTUAL THINKING COMBINES WITH A HANDS-ON APPROACH FOR SITE-SPECIFIC SOLUTIONS. UNDERSTANDING THE NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY WE ARE PLANNING FOR IS KEY TO DEVELOPING A STRONG PROGRAM RELATED TO THE SPECIFICITIES OF PLACE.
