- PublicationCap a la rehabilitació d' habitatges: demanda i necessitat social(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2023-11-29) Fernández Mora, Victor; Navarro Martínez, Ignacio Javier; Yepes Piqueras, Víctor; Dpto. de Ingeniería de la Construcción y de Proyectos de Ingeniería Civil; Escuela Técnica Superior de Ingeniería de Caminos, Canales y Puertos; Instituto Universitario de Investigación de Ciencia y Tecnología del Hormigón[EN] In 2008, a global economic crisis broke out that shook society s sciences and produced changes in its vision. In Spain, this crisis hit the real estate sector crudely, leaving thousands of empty homes. Today, there are still vestiges of this wound in society: an aging housing park and the difficulty of access to housing among other factors. This social context, coupled with the need to work to achieve a more sustainable way of living, justifies a social need that is becoming a reality. Rehabilitate housing instead of building new. A new challenge for architecture in response to society. A new challenge for which different solutions are being proposed.
- PublicationFormar o no formar: Què forma(r)? Una llista de sostenibilitats sense resumir(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2023-11-29) Onen, Isben[EN] This compact scrutiny delves into the intricate and multifaceted relationship between architecture, human experience, and its surroundings. It places architecture within a transdisciplinary framework that extends far beyond the conventional boundaries of erecting physical structures. Instead, it encompasses a rich tapestry of philosophy, culture, history, and various intellectual domains. Architecture, as argued here, occupies a unique space that is simultaneously abstract and tangible. In this capacity, it serves as a catalyst for critical thinking and reflective exploration of what to sustain. At the heart of this discourse lies the concept of architectural form, which emerges as a central theme. Architectural form is portrayed as a dynamic and abstract entity, particularly in its nascent stages, where it plays a pivotal role as a proposal for the order and harmony inherent in the built environment.
- PublicationCom podem contribuir a resoldre el trencaclosques de la sostenibilitat amb arquitectura bioclimàtica?(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2023-11-29) Albelda-Estellés Ness, Maria Coral; Norwegian University of Science and Technology[EN] Bioclimatic architecture enables a symbiotic relationship between people, nature and our built environment. By focusing on the integration of freely available natural forces and materials, it promotes energy and resource efficiency, in addition to comfort. We need to make our buildings more independent from active systems, to become more sustainable. Also, we need to consider their thermal safety in case of extreme climatic events or power outages. At last, we should not only aim for thermal comfort, but thermal delight, allowing for a more varied thermal landscaping in our buildings, to allow us to engage with our environment and awaken our senses.
- PublicationLa cota zero com a lloc d' intercanvi comunitari(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2023-11-29) García-Asenjo Llana, David[EN] The city model inherited from the urban developments of the 1990s and 2000s created an urban space in which the public and the community have given rise to the individual and the private. The low density of the expansions, changes in buying habits and the digitalization of personal and business relationships have caused a progressive abandonment of space on the ground floor of residential buildings, with the consequence of the loss of places of relationship in the zero level of the city. Faced with interventions that propose a speculative occupation of these premises, converting them into tourist homes or small apartments, alternative proposals are possible that seek to expand the common space and integrate these premises into a collaborative network that recovers their collective use. In a society in which the common use of public spaces is increasingly distant, in which the community is dismantled at the service of the individual, it is interesting to recover community spaces to weave new care networks.
- PublicationDisseny de la resiliència climàtica urbana amb solucions basades en la natura i infraestructures verdes. Reptes, problemes i bones pràctiques per a la regeneració a escala de barri(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2023-11-29) Raffa, Alessandro; Ministero dell'Università e della Ricerca; European Commission[EN] Climate change poses unprecedented challenges to urban environments, mostly affecting already vulnerable communities and ecosystems. While Climate Action (13th Sustainable Development Goal) still tends to focus on economic shifts and technological fixes, urban design and planning can play a crucial role in climate adaptation processes, enhancing socio-ecological resilience, while improving inclusivity, livability, wellbeing for all, opening to sustainable development scenarios. By focusing on nature-based solutions (NBS) and green infrastructure (GI), the contribution, which is part of an ongoing research, aims at identifying issues, challenges, and best practices to operationalize climate resilient adaptation through urban nature design and planning process and actions for neighborhood scale s regeneration. Through a qualitative methodology, three neighborhood case studies, recognized as best practices, will be compared in order to understand, issue and procedures related to the implementation of climate NBS and GI inside urban regeneration design and planning process.eworks towards equitable and livable urban futures.

- PublicationLa manca de lloc existencial. El no-lloc i la nostàlgia en l’era de la mobilitat(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2023-11-29) Pallasmaa, Juhani[EN] Mobility is, of course, a huge subject matter extending from the movement cycles and patterns of the primordial human settlements of the world, the great expeditions and the European re-discovery of the world, to our characteristic bi-petal motion and horizontal gaze, and the mobility implied by countless human modes of livelihood, production and communication. This theme also contains matters such as our embodied mode of experiencing the world through constant motion, the fundamental human right of mobility as specified in the Declaration of Human Rights, and the significance of mobility for human interaction both on cross-cultural as well as social and intimate levels. The significance of human mobility also evokes essential ecological and ethical questions; we have already reached the very limits of unlimited and irresponsible mobility. We should not exclude the limitations in mobility caused by cultural conditions, gender, forced restrictions, economy, and physical incapabilities. I will, however, focus on the dimensions of mobility that are closest to my personal interests as an architect, cultural observer and frequent traveller: the notion and consequences of geographic mobility and, particularly, of motorized and increasingly accelerated movement that is one of the foundational phenomena of our concept and reality of modernity. I am intentionally going to valorize a very narrow strip of the spectrum of human mobility aware of the vastness of issues that I am excluding from my study.
- PublicationCabanyal. Any 0. Estratègies de futur(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2023-11-29) Chust Silla, Alejandro[EN] Cabanyal has begun a new stage with the approval of the long-awaited Cabanyal-Canyamelar Special Plan (PEC) on May 24. This plan replaces the previous Special Plan for Reform and Internal Protection of Cabanyal-Canyamelar (PEPRI) with the objective of enacting a new urban planning regime focused on the regeneration and urban improvement of the entire area contained therein. The plan also establishes indicators that serve to better understand the urban structure of Cabanyal. However, the approval of this new plan must be understood as an opportunity to generate a new sustainable urban paradigm as well as a place for architectural experimentation. In the same way that popular modernist architecture was established as a reflection of the ways of life or customs of the inhabitants of Cabanyal, the new constructions that are being carried out in the maritime district must also be able to influence, channel and transmit the values or ways of living of a specific society or of a specific time for future generations. Therefore, the values assumed by this new architecture of the 21st century must be governed by standards of quality, habitability, or environmental sustainability.
- PublicationManuel: habitatge cooperatiu. Una experiència col·lectiva al voltant de les noves maneres d' habitar(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2023-11-29) Jara Calabuig, Aaron; Villasante Claramonte, Juan[EN] The housing cooperative in cession of use is an alternative model that aims to guarantee the right to a decent and affordable home, combat real estate speculation and promote coexistence and participatory management of real estate. It also defends the need to implement sustainable consumption criteria and lifestyles, meeting some of the objectives and strategies for sustainable development (ODS), defined by the United Nations. Following these premises, the creation of a hypothetical cooperative in the municipality of Manuel (La Ribera Alta, Valencia) is proposed within the framework of the Final Degree Projects of a group of students on the Master s Degree in Architecture at the Polytechnic University of Valencia. The academic projects incorporate the needs of the population in their programme and seek to improve their daily lives. To this end, contact has been maintained with the Town Council of Manuel during the development of the projects and a public exhibition of the results has been organised in the town, undertaking a task of dissemination aimed at its inhabitants and those of the rest of the region.
- PublicationUn centre formatiu per a una nova societat : la consideració social en l'arquitectura de la Universitat Laboral de Xest(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2023-11-29) Usó Martín, Fernando; Palomares Figueres, María Teresa; Escuela Técnica Superior de Arquitectura; Dpto. de Composición Arquitectónica; Getty Foundation[EN] Under the premise of transforming society through educational policy, the Franco regime implemented a socio-educational program for working-class youth starting in 1955. This program aimed to boost the national economy by providing better qualifications for the workforce to support the emerging industry. In this context, the Cheste Worker University was created between 1967 and 1969, accommodating more than 5,000 residents, all of whom were adolescents aged between 11 and 14, coming from all over Spain. Residency at the educational complex was in a boarding school regime, where daily activities were carried out simultaneously and in sync. Architect Fernando Moreno Barberá tackled the design of the educational complex with design principles that addressed social conditions anticipated by sociological studies, such as reduction of overcrowding, seeking empathy with the students to ensure their well-being and the smooth operation of the complex. This contribution explores the influence of the user in the sensitive design of Fernando Moreno Barberá at the Cheste Worker University in all its scales: the layout, architecture, interior and graphic design, and furniture, all of which always place the young students at the center of the design considerations.
- PublicationLa ciutat com a jardí. Elements d' una utopia(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2023-11-29) de Marco, Paolo[EN] From ancient myths to religious metaphors, the history of civilisation tells of numerous gardens admirable for their physical characteristics and underlying symbolic values. These gardens are not mere recreational spaces, but places of human life in all its complexity, thus representing the ideal combination of city and vegetation, man and nature. In the 20th century, some research and projects have attempted to create alternatives to current cities based - in different ways - on the ancient ideal of the garden.With the advent of urbanization of the world population, recent urban policies demonstrate possible strategies to change the destiny of the city by introducing nature into public space. Furthermore, from the study of some contemporary experiences it is possible to recognise traces of an innovative organic approach to design, the possibility of spatial coherence and the architecture-nature interdependence necessary for the construction of an effective ecosystem. A new architectural-urban paradigm, a holistic and interscalar vision that, finally, faces a truly sustainable horizon.
- PublicationSostenibilitat i territori. Una lectura d acord amb les categories vitruvianes(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2023-11-29) Margagliotta, Luigi Savio[EN] In architecture, the concept of sustainability with regard to the territorial dimension is expressed in its criteria for the organization and management of the territory and refers to the use of land and its resources, the preservation of historical, landscape and natural heritage, the control of the hydrogeological system, as well as the strategies for productive, cultural and economic development. These issues, which regulate the location, construction and transformation of entire settlements, infrastructures, facilities and environmental reserves, can be managed from the act of composition, with a careful approach both in terms of form and in terms of the space and environment that are being modified. By breaking down the syntactic process of four Italian design proposals developed between the 1970s and the beginning of the current century, it is possible to deduce within them the application of the six Vitruvian categories: ordinatio (preparing specifications), dispositio (designing the forms) distributio (allocating the costs), eurythmnia (dynamics), symmetria (commensurability) and decor (functionalism) which, tending towards the optimization of the design effort, are revealed as operational foundations that intrinsically contain the authentic principles of sustainability. Indeed, to compose well is to compose sustainably , on all scales of building, since it includes in its own design questions of an environmental nature related to the economy of resources and space as well as their of use and modification.

- PublicationQuina costa: resort o recurs?(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2023-11-29) Lobo, Susana[EN] Between land and sea, the coast is one of the most extraordinary and unique habitats occupied by man. On this threshold, dune landscapes are particular sensitive environments, in constant movement and transformation. Conservation measures have been implemented to regulate intervention on such sites, mainly concerning the safeguarding of primary dunes, but little consideration has been given to the in-depth structure of these ecosystems. With the pressure of seaside tourism development, the remaining untouched dune areas are facing serious threat. In Portugal, many have recently lost their classification as part of the National Ecologic Reserve (REN), since 2006 defined by proposal of each municipality. Grândola, in the district of Setúbal, is at the center of present environmental concerns, with 7 new mega luxury resorts predicted for the Tróia Peninsula and Comporta s seafront, 4 of them partially on primary dune and 4 comprising the construction of extensive golf courses. Towards the United Nations 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the focus should be on protecting the existing biodiversity, as part of the Natura 2000 network, and promoting the balanced use of local natural resources, in particular in an area of severe water shortage. That is the true luxury: to foster resource, not resorts.
- PublicationSales d' exposicions modernes de mitjan de segle del Centre d' Exposicions de Brno i la seua renovació(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2023-11-29) Štěpánková, Lenka[EN] Pavilions Y, C, and Z of the Brno Exhibition Centre, dating from the post-war period, are considered important monuments of Mid-century modern architecture in Czechoslovakia. However, they exhibit a number of operational shortcomings due to the time of their construction and the very nature of exhibition architecture intended originally only for seasonal use. The question of their future renovation and adaptation to a more sustainable operation is discussed in the context of their previous construction development, taking into account the peculiarities of the legislative environment in the Czech Republic and the specifics of exhibition and trade fair operations.
