AbstractThe lecture imparts methodological and instrumental fundamentals for planning and will be illustrated by exploring city quarters.
ObjectiveSpatially significant planning is concerned with the foresighted design of the built and un-built environment. Starting points are spatially relevant problems that need to be explored, clarified and solved. The students shall be familiarized with the appropriate paradigms connected to these activities. There is an underlying assumption that, on the one hand, planning has to interact with risks and uncertainty and, yet, on the other hand, decisions need to be made. The cornerstone of the lecture is formed by exploring city quarters, which involves investigating specific spatially relevant conditions, recognizing regularities and relevant problems as well as developing possible solutions.
ContentThe key aspects of the lectures are:
- Planning paradigm
- Planning repertoire
- Planning argumentation, acting and decision-making
- Exploration of city quarters, evaluation of the findings, and designing
