oh
00:00:04
i
00:00:08
uh_huh
00:00:11
so a lot more general permanently just i guess that much before
00:00:18
him so i'm part of the team which is
00:00:22
called the architect architecture of territory this is
00:00:25
the chair of uh architecture in territory or data real planning at the th streak and
00:00:31
they disliked by either assistant professor meet at the ballot which eh the project we're presenting
00:00:37
here is part of a bigger research which has been concentrating on the european countryside
00:00:44
eh the main problematic in the main idea of the chair is territory set their money station
00:00:50
in our main entailed tension is to go beyond the decor to me of seating countryside
00:00:55
and actually it's the explore and understand what is happening at the
00:00:59
serious which are beyond the uh the borders of the cities
00:01:05
and the so this particular project is entitled metropolitan countryside
00:01:10
and that there might sound contradictory but in fact
00:01:13
the it has been a very useful look term for
00:01:16
us and in order to understand and explain
00:01:21
and what is happening and up the broader um read metropolitan
00:01:25
regions and territories of switzerland but also in general um
00:01:30
you're so few words about um
00:01:34
however to go beyond uh the dichotomy of urban and a rural division
00:01:40
which is also are stressful to discuss the topic often suffocation
00:01:45
so looking week um at this map which comes from a
00:01:49
of recent statistics yours yours that we can see that
00:01:52
the areas are classified as a blue are they mainly urban
00:01:57
regions green are the made a rural regions um
00:02:02
and there is a caller which is yellow which are
00:02:04
actually the areas in between so intermediate regions where
00:02:08
the population a reputation is between twenty and sixty
00:02:12
percent uh checking more precisely what is happening
00:02:17
in this board a view is classified as urban
00:02:22
green is classified that's true there and everything in between is intermediate regions
00:02:27
and more precisely in switzerland we can observe that is yellow caller
00:02:31
is uh it really um beak let's say indicating that
00:02:36
there is an urban territory beyond the city so what this
00:02:41
territory is and how we can explore and understand it
00:02:45
so it is so widely known that uh the last fifty
00:02:48
years the population in switzerland uh almost doubled and then
00:02:54
what is interesting is that this growth was actually not absorbed
00:02:57
by the cities but rather by the countryside so by
00:03:00
they small grain of the swiss territory which is to be found in the villages any in the u.
00:03:06
c.s landscapes of course these uh growth had its impact a
00:03:11
mean to the the land use ice it took
00:03:14
place mainly and i at the coast of agricultural land mainly at this we split off the meat plant
00:03:22
so taking us a an example for our exploration
00:03:26
the metropolitan g. region of a lack lemon
00:03:29
uh yeah we enter the at uh the discussion uh via the point
00:03:32
of view of uh the city the city lines ever been
00:03:36
portrait a that was a publication from studio but as a two
00:03:40
thousand five were actually uh there was an effort to the
00:03:44
conceptual lies in understand whole speech wouldn't uh an as an urban country
00:03:51
so what was considered to rebel or what was considered remote
00:03:55
was in this case under student classified as a bigger uh part
00:04:00
of an urban network that covers the whole country so
00:04:05
what is interesting for us is that a three uh let's say areas were
00:04:11
classified as metropolitan regions this is like lemon as weak and buys it
00:04:17
uh they say yes in this case work correctly rice uh it beyond the the um let's say
00:04:23
the classical names of the cities so in this case geneva news on but rather as
00:04:28
big elite say rooms territorial rooms that have absorbed croak an however
00:04:36
checking precisely what is happening in the serious we can understand that uh this
00:04:41
was a broad classifications so it's a a big stroke on the mark with a
00:04:46
pink collar so i'm starting thinking through the perspective of the landscape of
00:04:51
then beat of the countryside and there there is much potential to actually explore
00:04:56
more and understand better the fine that shades a of this metropolitan region
00:05:03
i am so our project actually uh it started as a
00:05:09
series of campaigns see a research um research investigations
00:05:15
at the landscapes of letterman which uh took form of the form of two semesters
00:05:20
uh the first semester uh entitled to metropolitan
00:05:24
countryside um started to explore and merging
00:05:28
territorial patterns and landscape by politics of say in between landscape of the countryside
00:05:35
the second semester um was more concerned about the governance of these landscapes
00:05:40
aim as well as the an emergence of new social patterns
00:05:46
uh so explain a little bit more um the first semester
00:05:50
metropolitan countryside and was focusing on the fact that
00:05:55
um let's say the beat footprint or the built fabric which is depicted in
00:05:59
rate in this map um is let's say understood as a a an
00:06:06
but the and the place where drove is absorbed but but what
00:06:11
was interesting for us uh is to observe that in
00:06:14
between let's say uh this red fabric there is a whole
00:06:17
zone of landscape in agricultural land uh which extends
00:06:22
so therefore um in this case what we were we try to do
00:06:26
together with their students was actually to the king this um
00:06:30
makes he predict landscape where um or by knitted together with landscape
00:06:36
are creating and new technologies of habitation of this territory
00:06:43
those were the case studies that were selected for the first investigation and moving to the next semester
00:06:49
uh eh the main question here was to enter to uh the discussion through the
00:06:54
very fine grain of the swiss territory uh the grain of the commune
00:06:59
which is a talks about the government's this territory but also the valium
00:07:04
uh let's say specific characteristics of identity and locality and either in terms
00:07:11
of um uh the difference a local identity but also economy
00:07:17
in this case different a case that this were selected a those were the communes
00:07:22
so to relate more precisely with the um topic of um identification and uh
00:07:29
and croak so through all of these investigations we came to three points
00:07:35
so first of all is that a growth is not to be researched in the cities but actually
00:07:40
in the countryside so despite the emphasis that has been given to compact cities anyway then suffocation
00:07:47
in fact what we observed so far is that it is the small grain so the villages
00:07:52
and the countryside that has absorbed a really a big person that's of this growth so
00:07:58
these growth um is not many faced it uh in in big developments but rather it is manifest
00:08:04
it as small low density settlements as this that traditional let's say uh say use of
00:08:11
the territory villages or hamlets are actually transforming to something different which is always and not all
00:08:17
blues and therefore we need to uh approach more precisely and understand what is happening there
00:08:23
and third point is that and actually this growth uh
00:08:27
took place at the coast of agricultural land
00:08:31
of course and obviously consuming cute but also the
00:08:34
other hand print using he predict patterns where
00:08:38
i'll turret traditional settlements quick ceased with the air
00:08:43
changing can transform can recapture agricultural lands
00:08:47
uh so the points that i mentioned here depict it's a
00:08:51
first point villages and the countryside are growing faster here
00:08:54
we can see him up of a growth of the metropolitan countryside of letterman and it's kind of impressive
00:09:01
that uh it with red actually it's not only jenny foreclose on that actually that much broader eighty of the
00:09:08
metropolitan region of like lemon even what a it appears
00:09:12
to the previous maps as kind of intact landscape
00:09:16
second mark uh shows the and population distribution in this uh
00:09:20
metropolitan countryside reflection on and it allows us to observe
00:09:25
observe that actually all the area is covered by a
00:09:28
very feeding a layer of low density in habitation
00:09:33
and third come up uh depicts the new the transformation
00:09:37
of landscapes so for sure we can understand
00:09:40
that there was a big amount of agricultural land which was given to development but in
00:09:46
parallel uh it there is also an agricultural land
00:09:49
which remains a new uh sites but i'm
00:09:53
actually changing can choose so transforming from a productive land to a different kind of landscape
00:10:01
i will go through a few far case studies in order to illustrate a bit better with it
00:10:06
uh what they just explain before i yeah trying actually to categorise this and i married
00:10:13
five more minutes trying to categorise um eh this patterns i am
00:10:19
so the first factor which was understood uh was a name as frozen capsule landscapes
00:10:27
this is the case that probably do very well know what level uh
00:10:30
where the historical protected landscape um declare us a protected unesco
00:10:36
zone at the moment this mainly in hobby to test the commuters land here we can see the amount of people that
00:10:42
everyday move to design in order to work um and carefully observing
00:10:47
the structure of the traditional fee that's currently changing due to
00:10:51
the cars that indicate this connection to the city but also
00:10:55
due to the inner transformations uh of the actual beatings
00:10:59
and same example at leave gauche but also about button name uh and
00:11:04
where i'm strictly protected landscape uh it is actually at the moment
00:11:10
uh hosting an inner transformation uh where traditional villages are actually turning
00:11:17
to um see predict i apologise of ruben is new and
00:11:21
different kind of actors uh a local into local airborne et cetera
00:11:27
and then crows uh this protected and seemingly impact landscape
00:11:32
and second pattern which we discovered cause then you countryside suburbia um
00:11:38
a ball you might know very well a privileged license shapes with you to the lake mainly connected to
00:11:44
the infrastructure are transforming to sleeping towns and uh
00:11:49
i'm commuters finances um related to the cities
00:11:54
uh here we can see the greed of the v. let's that connects
00:11:57
very well to to the highway main like a channel you think
00:12:01
all the people to the big cities an apology that uh is quite important is what we called export
00:12:07
it's prone this is mainly condition which is weakness all along the borders of switch around in france
00:12:13
a well known example is a solution you pretty heats close to search um
00:12:19
parallel to the explosion of geneva with the creation of certain um there
00:12:23
was a whole land and the whole market uh of um kind
00:12:28
of less affair development in order to host actually growth that at
00:12:32
the moment geneva could not that sort of a century now
00:12:37
similar case i'm witnessing actually that all pressures
00:12:41
for a growth and uh then suffocation
00:12:44
that save geneva are rather exported to the other side of the border
00:12:49
and then also without thought um and it's uh i didn't
00:12:55
the case that uh this growth is absorbed by
00:12:58
the small scale of the territory so small settlements float thinking a green see if a coach aligned
00:13:05
um and shortly concluding the um other kind of landscapes as a border
00:13:11
economists lucian me so really close to the border france and switzerland
00:13:17
hold valet valid issue traditionally producing the clocks today becomes one
00:13:22
of the main destinations of commuters from france um
00:13:28
and uh oh for sure i'm here we can see the prince sort of real
00:13:33
estate so how also this same file a at the top of the
00:13:36
he's is actually absorbing the pressure for housing uh which cannot be absorbed in
00:13:42
lower altitudes due to the rise of the prices um so maybe
00:13:48
i get an um the guys before mentioned a resource
00:13:52
landscape so a big protected latin skates um
00:13:58
which are crucial uh for uh the water for the arm as
00:14:02
a to be characterised as natural natural mineral resource actually um
00:14:08
provide the perfect multi for preservation of big of big batches
00:14:12
of landscape so concluding call this first part uh it
00:14:16
still working pro progress but our effort is to actually create or refine
00:14:22
these markets to do basil had provided for this region mainly
00:14:27
by pointing out these very particular new patterns of habitation between um
00:14:33
let's say this you predict form of a sickly countryside um
00:14:38
landscape organ habitation yeah yeah so as for um let's say
00:14:44
uh first tape 'em is mopping this particular patterns second step is how to operate
00:14:50
and how to design and and if i still have effects that have some
00:14:54
minutes two minutes yes i will show you mean uh um so we have to
00:14:59
diplomas dealing with this idea so on this identify technologies trying to operate
00:15:05
and propose some projects uh the first the diploma is called the book as in
00:15:10
the police and it's going to be presented in december at the th and
00:15:14
maybe we'll show you only this one so the bow cash mccall police um
00:15:19
is actually dealing uh with a very well known very well described landscape
00:15:25
and the surrounding landscape of geneva a this is a landscape which has historically
00:15:30
been very much described very much explained through the point of view of
00:15:34
the landscape and therefore almost constructed as an urban let's say you mean
00:15:40
a construction i want to put a point out in the siemens
00:15:44
this line of trees which is the traditional focus and wash we we meet
00:15:48
further so in the same way that landscape has been depicted in
00:15:52
discussed uh in painting can photography in the same way um there is
00:15:57
a tradition of discussing a landscape around geneva in planning here
00:16:02
we have the example of the uh plumb design from bob please play yeah
00:16:06
in thirty six actually think um where actually the idea is that
00:16:11
the whole city should operate together with its landscape and i would like
00:16:16
to point out your intention to these the mean caller so uh
00:16:21
what play yeah it is proposing in this plan is mainly one layer which
00:16:25
is between the city and the countryside uh what he uh he
00:16:29
calls it does um let's say public space urban public space with as
00:16:34
a kind of grew marriages together to see in its territory
00:16:39
in contrast to they couldn't planning conditions which on one hand are
00:16:44
um come a artistic distinguishing the c. t. um and its
00:16:48
surrounding the frozen landscape protected by the surface the soul amount into
00:16:53
a city which is a subject to inner than suffocation
00:16:57
i hear also you straight to the contradiction of the scheme of a very
00:17:02
protected let's say for a c. t. object to diversification frozen landscape and then
00:17:09
kind of let's say fair strategy of cross intensification exported beyond the borders
00:17:15
um so what this project is trying to do is actually to really discuss
00:17:20
uh the potential of using this landscape as a subject of um
00:17:25
strategies including ecology but also been suffocation uh observe ink
00:17:30
um particular agricultural lands that at the moment
00:17:35
not being classified as so fast the so the more are absorbing everybody who's
00:17:41
um so they can could profit the for the the underlying potential off the bill cash isn't
00:17:47
it was which is an infrastructure which is already
00:17:50
there um framing spaces and directing them
00:17:55
let's say movements at this landscape um this project wants to discuss
00:18:00
this idea of the cash so these rows of trees
00:18:03
a defining landscape rooms either for laser or for agricultural land
00:18:08
as a possibility uh it for the directive uh
00:18:13
for new development um and also than suffocation so what if i actually uh these book
00:18:20
as a was witnessed or was understood this an opportunity not only to bring
00:18:25
ecology back into this landscape but rather to propose hickory he brit
00:18:30
urban ecology what's uh combines along its lines um new functions
00:18:37
um and then see a density than suffocation not only of build environment but rather to offer
00:18:43
more should be the conditions that may be respected response more condition which is already there
