Overview

The Nuxalk Nation will be the stu-

dio’s host and collaborator. They

have asked us to work with them

to develop designs for locally

fabricated off-the-grid cabins.

They have expectations and aspi-

rations. The cabins should reflect Nuxalk culture, be inespensive

to build, and use local skills and

resources. Key to understanding

the nature of this studio is that

the specifics of these parameters will emerge out of the work of the

studio, and not predetermined.

In several Zoom-based - perhaps

in-person - meetings, Nuxalk

knowledge holders will consult

with us. In this way the com-

munity participants will be both

advocate and critic.

Field of Inquiry

Starting small but thinking big,

this studio will explore the cabin

from two perspectives:

- Tactically, what are the most

useful things we as designers can

provide toward a successful out-

come of building a cabin created

from a local supply chain?

- Strategically, how can the pur-

poseful situating of many cabins

across a vast but lived landscape

contribute to a “tribal park”

narration of Nuxalk traditional

territory?

Site and Program

Sites and programs will be iden-

tified in back-and-forth consul-tation with Nuxalk participants.

Based on this back-and-forth,

students will propose sites and

programs that reconcile our mutu-

al interests.

Given the simplicity of the cabin,

one should expect that since func-

tionally they will be quite straight-

forward - a bunkhouse, a meeting

space, a cookhouse, etc. - the real

program is the reconciliation of

Nuxalk need and aspiration.

Learning Objectives

- Develop in great detail the de-

sign and instructions for assembly

of a cabin.

- Convey ideas and facts about

building and territory using appro-

priate graphic methods.

- Develop listening and learning

skills in a sustained dialogue with

Nuxalk participants.

Schedule

The studio is will be a dynam-

ic process of engagement, of

listening and learning, describ-

ing what has been heard, and

projecting that into an iterative

design process.

In the first four weeks we’ll ex-

plore Nuxalk ethnology as well

as present-day Nuxalk daily life,

including health and wellness,

education, food harvesting,

culture-building, and land guard-

ianship. We will also graphically

analyze basic wood construction

techniques, including green lum-

ber construction, post-and-beam,

and heavy timber.

The final eight-plus weeks of the studio will focus on two things:

- Developing the cabin’s specific technical, programmatic, and

cultural attributes, resulting in

both conventional design draw-

ings and in a visualized, detailed

material inventory, and

- Making maps, narrative draw-

ings, and diagrams describing

how cabins on Nuxalk tradition-

al territory tell a story about Nux-

alk culture and aspirations.

The final review for the studio will actually be two reviews: a

community review, followed by

an academic review.

Engagement Ethics

Students in the studio will com-

plete the TCPS Core 2 tutorial on

research ethics and produce a

positionality statement.

Site Visit

A four-day trip is pencilled in (it

takes a day to drive there) for the

first half of October, pending a studio group discussion and the

COVID situation.

“The Four Carpenters who made the world were sitting around a fire in Nusmata, when the eldest, Yulm, grabbed a piece of charcoal out of the fire and shook it in his hands. When he opened his hands it was a bird. The second Carpenter then made the wings. The third one made its eyes. The youngest one gave it life.

“The Carpenters asked the bird to say his name and the bird flew into the sky and cried out, "qwaxw, qwaxw, qwaxw!" The Car-penters gave the bird the name, Qwaxw, Raven.”

Crowd Shyness _Germaine Koh, 2020

/ the premiseStarting in the summer of 2020, just months into the Covid-19 Pandemic, the City of Vancouver beganinstalling pop-up-plazas to give residents a safe place to be in the city. Over 21 pop-up plazas wereinstalled, using affordable and available off-the-shelf materials. In addition to the pop-up-plazas, theCity closed many streets to non-local traffic so that residents could occupy their streets and have morespace to walk and bike safely. By the Fall of 2020, the City created over 40km of slow streets.

Urbanism during the pandemic was (and still is) a world created extemporarily; an adhocracy born outof benign paranoia and anxious hope. The emerging future has thus far been impulsively decided -sketched on the world by chalk-wielding drones, supermarket clerks with tape guns, and so muchprecariously mounted plastic sheeting. But how many more versions could there be? As the pandemicshifts to an endemic, what have we learned about ourselves, our spaces, how we want to work, and

play, and socialize; how we want to restart? As the pop-up plazas shift from temporary to permanent,where and what form should they take?

A GPS Controlled Tractor draws social distancing circles in Trinity-Bellwoods Park_City of Toronto, 2020

We have already learned a lot since the start of the pandemic …Critically, inequities that existed prior to the pandemic have been brought to light to the degree thatthey have become urgent and unavoidable. These are inequities at all scales: from the global (ie.richnations control vaccine access, women have lost more jobs than men, the K-economy), to the national(revelations about the how in-person workplace privileges extroverts and related - how the onlineworkplace flattens inequity between POC and non-POC colleagues), to the local (stay-at-home orderswere unevenly experienced by Vancouverites, from people who had the luxury of their own backyards,to ones living in SROs or the unhoused population, another spectrum was between people in supportivefamily units and ones left deeply isolated and lonely).

Increasingly we are hearing about care as an approach to global inequity as well as other urgent areassuch as the climate. In the Care Manifesto, published by The Care Collective in 2020, the authors declare“We are in the midst of a global crisis of care. How do we get out of it?” In their manifesto, they arguethat “we are in urgent need of a politics that puts care front and centre. … Care is our individual andcommon ability to provide the political, social, material, and emotional conditions that allow the vastmajority of people and living creatures on this planet to thrive – along with the planet itself. … Aboveall, to put care centre stage means recognising and embracing our interdependencies. … We are alldependent on each other, and only by nurturing these interdependencies can we cultivate a world inwhich each and every one of us can not only live but thrive.”

In 2021, Copenhagen Architecture Festival will focus its activities on the overall theme 'Landscapes ofCare'. The organizers ask “How, then, can architecture and urban planning contribute to strengtheningcoexistence, tolerance/solidarity, diversity and care for each other, our planet and common resources at

a time of pandemics, terror, migration, climate crisis, increasing inequality, etc.? How does the designand management of houses and urban spaces contribute to the formation of communities and behaviorin public spaces?”

In a forthcoming essay titled “The Space Between Us” Darryl Condon argues for the power of space thatbrings us together as an urgent priority for the future of public space design. He states, “We are bettertogether. It is by being together that we understand each other, support each other, and build acommon social fabric – the same resilient networks that have carried us through the darkest days of thepandemic.”

Through embracing notions of care, of interdependencies, of building common social fabric, this studiowill work to develop proposals for a more equitable, accessible, future for public spaces within our city.

Material Ecologies: Bamfield Pavilion

Vertical Studio LARC 504Open to students in MLA, MArch and MARCLA

InstructorJoseph Dahmen, Associate Professor, UBC SALAe-mail: [email protected]

Meeting Times: Tuesdays and Fridays 1:30-6pm

Students enrolled in this vertical studio will explore the theme of material ecology through the design of an architectural pavilion, adjacent playground, and a network of trails for a public park in Bamfield, BC. Bamfield is small coastal community on the west coast of Vancouver Island, originally inhabited by Huu-ay-aht First Nations, who remain an integral presence in the community. Students in the studio will work collaboratively with the community through the Bamfield Parks Commission (BPC), a volunteer organiza-tion, to develop a design vision for an architectural pavilion and surrounding landscape. The BPC will participate in periodic virtual design reviews throughout the term, and the studio will work collaboratively to provide a design for the pavilion and surrounding landscapes to BPC at the end of term.

The pavilion will provide shelter from rain and prevailing westerly winds and powerful winter storms, pro-viding a gathering place for locals and visitors in the presence of striking views of the Deer Group is-lands. It will serve a variety of uses by the local community and visitors, including dance and arts events, summer programmes for children, as well as a picnic area during inclement weather. Playground ele-ments informed by principles of natural play and a network of trails through the adjacent forested areas will provide opportunities for outdoor recreation. The pavilion and landscape elements will be construct-ed of timber from trees sustainably harvested from the Bamfield Huu‐ay‐aht Community Forest, a 365 hectare preserve located adjacent to the town.

The design for the pavilion and surrounding landscape will provide students an opportunity to balance design poetics with cultural practices and the urgent ecological concerns of a fragile coastal ecosystem in transition. According to the UN, the built environment today consumes 40% of all resources. The stu-dio will address the relationship of the built environment to resource consumption by finding spatial op-portunities in material ecologies. Engaging the full lifecycle of design elements has the potential to deep-en our understanding of materials that are inextricably linked to environments, geographies, and pro-cesses. Expanding the boundaries of design to include upstream ecological processes and end-of-life considerations has the potential to replace tired paradigms of scarcity with the material abundance characteristic of natural systems. In the context of the contemporary ecological crisis, these methods also have the potential to build more nuanced relationships between materials and the natural and hy-brid ecologies from which they are drawn, reducing or even reversing the ecological impacts of land-scapes and architecture.

An optional site visit to Bamfield in late September (COVID permitting) will be partly funded by the BPC.

Our practice focuses on small-to-medium scale housing developments in the area known as Metro Vancouver, but we endeavour to bring to those projects a global perspective informed by the most challenging issues facing our generation. We are now extending that research through a design studio on Missing Middle housing - a typology that forms the fundamental urban fabric of many north American cities, yet is woefully and conspicuously underrepresented in Vancouver’s housing stock.

This studio will not only explore the typology and topology of urban housing, but also the myriad societal forces that exert pressure on housing forms and delivery models - including a!ordability, climate crisis, zoning, and territorial politics. In addition, the studio will attempt to harness and redirect those forces towards new models of urban habitation - enduring structures that embody the healthy integration of human and natural systems.

The studio will be organized into three modules of increasing duration and complexity. The first (3 weeks) will focus on the game of project delivery - understanding which parameters are within the control of the architect, and which are decidedly not. The second (4 weeks) will shift focus from outside to inside, examining interiority as a generator of urban form and programming. These two studies will culminate in a final project (6 weeks) that synthesizes both the systemic and the human parameters of housing design. Students will attempt to galvanize the patterns and flows of material, information, and people into an embedded intervention, unique in its engagement with its environment, community, and culture.

The site is a former industrial area with connections to waterfront and mass transit, and subsequently, is under enormous development pressure. In addition to employing the traditional tools of architecture, planning, and design, students will also investigate di!erent models of ownership, tenure, and changes in the institution of housing.

Why choose this studio? We believe that architecture can address the overwhelming and systemic challenges that our society faces. At the end of the semester you will have engaged with some of the most wicked problems of our age, and advanced the conversation through architectural inquiry. You might learn to see architectural practice as an infinite game1 where we all have a stake in continuing the play.

Rewilding Play Design Build Interventions Introduction Vancouver is known for its abundant green spaces and opportunities for outdoor play and recreation, yet most outdoor play areas at child care centres in the city rarely reflect this image, and many centres struggle to provide quality play experiences for their children. This is particularly detrimental to young children’s health and well-being as they develop socially, cognitively, emotionally, and physically. Preschool children, in particular are learning the very basics of what it means to be a social being and to create with intention, building objects and spaces from their own imagination. This studio will give SALA students an opportunity to design and build interventions in the outdoor play areas of YMCA Vancouver child care centres with approximately 200 three to five year-old children and 48 Early Childhood Educators (ECE). Students will work in groups and engage with ECE, Métis herbalist/educator Lori Snyder, local suppliers, Dr. Mariana Brussoni from UBC Faculty of Medicine and The School for Population and Public Health, and representatives from the BC Cancer Agency. Students can access the SALA wood shop and fabrication tools. Students will rewild the children’s outdoor play spaces with interventions, installed to bring back the exuberance, mystery, and magic of children’s play. The studio will also give SALA students the opportunity to have the effects of their design work studied by Brussoni’s lab, which will be collecting and comparing data on the children pre and post installation and in intervention and non-intervention (control) sites . The studio project is based on the Nature Play Meets Risky Play pilot project for 45 children at two child care centres in the Downtown East Side. The study compared children pre and post installation. Findings indicated significant decreases in depressed affect, a decrease in antisocial behaviour, and increases in play with natural materials, independent play, and prosocial behaviours of children after the intervention.

SUBURBAN

UBC SALA – Fall 2021 Graduate Option Studio

ARCH 501|20|40

Instructor: James F Huemoeller

This studio explores architecture within the

indeterminate terrain that surrounds our increasingly

monotonous, sanitized urban cores. Currently, those

cores hold an outsized influence on urban thinking, but

this will change. As architects, we must learn to endow

those areas outside the centre with an energy that

allows those communities to thrive as urban places.

To do so means accepting a different kind of urbanism.

In the centre, space is at a premium, and therefore the

focus of design. At the edges, space is in excess, and

landscape becomes dominant. The excess space means

buildings are free to relish in their objectless, protected

by mid-century zoning codes. Yet this freedom renders

architecture in suburban contexts powerless to have any

urban impact. A series of functionally separated zones

(street, bike lane, planting strip, sidewalk, planting strip,

parking, lawn) means architecture’s only hope for a

transformative urban project is through spectacle,

Denice Scott Brown’s Vegas Strip.

As we inevitably move beyond car-centred

development, we can no longer embrace the reality of

the suburbs the same way. Instead, we must find a new

avenue for operation that rejects the “decorated shed”:

as well as the derivative New-Urbanist villages that

came later, but also acknowledge that the genie is out of

the bottle: any attempt to reform the suburbs into a

traditional urban fabric is impossible.

In other words, we must abandon our obsession with

the core and embrace the mess we have made, but with

more optimism about what architecture can achieve.

Methodology:

Redefining architecture's place in the city requires new approaches. This is not an urban design nor a landscape studio,

but the studio's early investigations and research will focus on many of those disciplines to better understand and define

architecture's place. Students will learn to see topics such as demographics and governance as operative design tools.

Research into the systems that support architecture will also be key in generating the architectural idea.

The studio will also look at architecture not as a static entity but as a process where designers play an important but brief

role in a building's life. Starting with a re-rendering of Surrey 50 years in the future, students will be asked to value

buildings equally in all phases—from conception to destruction—and understand how each phase can influence the

other. They will also learn from several stakeholders and rightsholders in Surrey who play a significant role in the

planning of public buildings such as community representatives and city administration.

In addition, students will engage a theoretical study of the figure/ground relationship within architecture. While not

rejecting building as landform or landscape ecology, methods that have been fruitfully important over the last twenty-five

years, the studio will ask students to develop a more sophisticated understanding of the ground and the potential role of

the figure. Complimenting readings and class discussions, the studio will look at works ranging from Junya Ishigami's

rendering of nature as a figure to the Greek temple whose objectness only gains meaning through a complete

engagement with landscape.

The ultimate goals of this methodology will be to instill in students confidence in working in the world of excess space. As

any designer knows, constraints make design easier. The challenge of design in suburban contexts is that the lack of

constraints gives architects little to push against. Yet, no site is empty, and the task we have as architects is to

understand and articulate its fullness so that meaningful, grounded design can begin.

See the video for additional information on the work plan for the semester.

Site:

The studio's focus will be on Surrey, soon to be the largest city in the area. Despite the façade of single-family homes in

Surrey, the community boasts one of the most diverse, growing populations in the Lower Mainland. The homes

themselves are dense multigenerational living quarters creating far more density than many Vancouver neighbourhoods.

Yet the current urban fabric fails to fully support that demographic vitality, a fact not lost on the city administration as

Surrey works towards creating more "urban" amenities to support the growing communities with major projects for new

community centres and libraries. Unfortunately, despite many of these projects being some of the more innovative in the

metro area, they have failed to shape any coherent structure for the city, becoming oases in the urban desert.

Studio Introduction While it is our habit to think of buildings as singular objects, they in fact negotiate a place within innumerable expansive systems. While at times buildings provide a vivid expression of intent within a continuum of more remote concerns, architecture can also at times inherit a decidedly subservient role. This studio will observe the manner in which the architectural design project per se is situated in complex social, political and geographic logics.. While perhaps buildings’ engagement with natural systems seems pre-eminent and urgent, other systems also argue their case for consideration. These vary according to intended use, concerns related to ownership and patronage, site conditions and – of course – the vicissitudes of politics. These ‘back stories’ live in the material fabric that surrounds our lives. To capture something of the complex and at times conflicting aspects of these systems we will be centering our attention on the redevelopment of the Skeena Terrace social housing project located on the eastern fringe of the city of Vancouver. It consists of 20 structures on a site of 10.8 acres, built in the 1960’s and bearing witness to a very different historical moment in our collective concern for providing affordable housing. The project is one of the largest of its kind in British Columbia – accommodating approximately 600 renters – and was provided in a partnership between BC, the City of Vancouver and the Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation. The federal government has in the meantime essentially withdrawn from active participation in providing housing and the current proposal for reconfiguring the site has begun with BC Housing – the site’s owner – in collaboration with existing tenants and the City of Vancouver. We will be working directly with BC Housing, the architects Perkins and Will and landscape architects PWL throughout the teerm It should be exciting to see your own proposals measured against the emerging designs for redevelopment!

Page 14: OPTION STUDIOS FALL 2021

Process

Given the intended focus of the studio it is natural that we will work at varied scales and with an array of specific intents. Exporations will be lodged in a series of four exercises. Each exercise will be complemented by pertinent readings that will contribute to studio tutorial discussions. Exercise I: Precinct Precedents This is a short research project, working in assigned groups of 3, that essentially serves as an ‘Urban Social Housing 101’. The collective knowledge gained here should serve to underpin our contemporary imagination. In each case there are compelling insights to help instigate the Studio’s design exercises. Projects for study include: Weissenhof Estate, Stuttgart, Various Architects (1927) Halen Estates, Bern, Atelier 5 (1955-62) Lafayette Park, Detroit, Mies van der Rohe (1956) Social housing SAAL Bouca, Porto, Alvaro Siza (1973-1978) Cite du Grand Parc, Bordeaux, Lacaton and Vassal Architects (2016) Exercise II: The Potential for Renewal In this project we will be working individually. The inheritance that an existing landscape, buildings and urban structure provide deserves a direct and immediate consideration in any formulation of the future potential of a site. Exercise III: New Precinct Logics In this project we will be working in self-organized groups of 4-5. At the root of this exercise is the contested and at times tense relationship between the inherited traditions of a discreet enclave and the open-ended structure of gridiron urbanism. Exercise IV: Prototype Building Design This major project of the term again finds us working individually. This final exercise invites consideration of the various systemic contexts in which an individual building finds itself and to make design proposals accordingly.

Housing Disaster - Disaster Housing “Unaffordable” - Affordable Housing in Vancouver After COVID 19 LARC 504 sec 001 / LARC 505 sec 001 Fall 2021 I 9 Credit I Vertical Studio Syllabus Instructor: Daniel Roehr [email protected] Studio: Tuesday & Friday 1:30 pm- 6:00pm Office Hours Friday 9:00am – 10:00am via email request Landscape Architecture is an art and science of the possible – the art is to analyze the site and the science is the research that you have to do in order to make your ideas work. (Cornelia Hahn Oberlander, C.C. O.B.C. FCSLA FASLA BCSLA) Course Overview The global pandemic caused by COVID-19 is putting pressure on cities throughout the world to rethink how they should develop and operate. This studio examines how affordable housing has been and should be rethought in Vancouver after the pandemic and how affordable housing should be a significant element within the urban fabric of cities. It examines the role of affordable housing today and in the future in the order of three scales: 1) Building 2) City Block and 3) City. The other studio goal is to generate the design ideas multi-sensorial, not only from the perspective of sight, but all five senses. It will research inclusive design, health (especially mental health), sustainable design, ecological aspects, and social justice and will include the findings in the ideation process. This studio uses the content of Gardens are… Buildings, a journal article the instructor co-authored in 2020, as inspiration. In the article the authors ask the following questions: (1) What role does a garden have today in this unprecedented pandemic? (2) How will this pandemic alter opinions on access to local gardens and parks? (3) How can planners and designers help to provide more gardens and greenspace in cities to help to mitigate the effects during and after the COVID-19 crisis and in future crises? The instructor developed a broad planning matrix which supports urban planners and designers in the integration of gardens as part of their initial building policies and design approach. The matrix uses garden activities as a basis to determine garden design and use in conjunction with building typologies, for example, a hospital, three-story housing a factory or a museum. This year’s studio applies the matrix conceptual content but asks a completely different metaphorical question: Can Buildings be…. Gardens? This question is supporting the notion that affordable housing could metaphorically speaking be gardens, a space to retreat to. Perhaps a paradise garden, the Garden of Eden, a space where one is welcomed and part of society.

For the team phases, the city block and city scale site selection will be by group decision with the instructor’s support. The studios main aim is to examine how affordable housing including a garden space can be designed and integrated as part of the urban fabric at building, city block and city scale. Background Implementation of affordable housing has been a crisis, or disaster drastically speaking and overlooked issue in Vancouver for decades. After Vancouver’s EXPO 86, housing prizes started to climb and skyrocketed in the 2000’s and have been some of the highest globally in comparison to average income. Because of this situation, affordable housing and low rent housing is scarce in Vancouver. The low-income earners such as mail delivery personal or taxi driver live out in Surrey or even further to make ends meet. This is not only unsustainable commuting wise; it is also disconnecting a large part of society within the city which are so vital to the multi-cultural experience of a city and its functioning. In my article Vancouver’s Housing Crisis, a Collaborative Opportunity for Planers and Architects https://www.researchgate.net/publication/335924407_Vancouver's_Housing_Crisis_A_Collaborative_Opportunity_for_Planners_and_Architects I suggest that landscape architects and architects need to be more involved in the discussion and use their design expertise and visualization skills to convince the City to push affordable housing even further. This studio tries to address this shortfall. Professor Patrick Condon has written extensively in the Tyee and books on the housing crisis and proposed solutions how to address the issue, https://thetyee.ca/Solutions/2018/06/04/Tax-To-Solve-Housing-Crisis/. With the pandemic the unaffordability of housing has become even more desperate. This studio frames the problems at multiple scales and provides different scenarios how the lack of affordable housing and adjacent open space in the city could be mitigated with different design strategies.
