Aims and Scope
LAF puts its focus on the intersecting spheres of academic research
and design practice in landscape architecture, discussing new opinions,
theories and approaches to address environmental and ecological issues
through landscape architecture; advocating new aesthetics and new
culture which benefit the beauty of China and the world by introducing
and promoting most recent practice of landscape architecture. It acts as
a bridge connecting research and social needs, science and art, leading
the development of the discipline. Our audience includes researchers and
professional architects, faculties and students, policy makers in related
fields and people who work on the environmental constructions in both
urban and rural areas.

社会架构与空间序列——曼谷班库瓦社区
Social Fabric and Spatial Permutation — Ban Krua, Bangkok
摘要 ……
曼谷的班库瓦社区位于邻近国家体育场的塞桑运
河沿岸。该社区因成功抵制政府计划修建横穿其中的
高速公路,而在国际上引起反响。一系列学术研究将
他们之前的成功或归功于社区凝聚力推动下的非暴力
不合作策略,或追溯至社区与泰国军方和当局高级官
员之间的渊源。但我们感兴趣的是维系这一非凡凝聚
力的存在于社会架构之间的动态关系,以及由社区所
催生并存在于其中的空间。建筑可以是自生自长的,
并且通常会随时间发生变化。在城市尺度上,社区中
狭窄的巷道网络是家庭空间的直接延伸——社区层面
上的连通性以及由其所触发的城市层面上的隔离性二
者间的动态变化,共同塑造着这一连续的空间序列。

Abstract ...The community of Ban Krua has come to global attention through their successful
resistance against a government proposal for a motorway that would have cut through
their community on the banks of the Saen Saeb canal near Bangkok’s National Stadium.
While academic studies attribute their erstwhile success either to the tactics of non-violent
resistance sustained by community cohesion or to the communities’ longstanding ties
with senior officials in the Thai military and bureaucracy, we were interested in the dynamic
interrelationships between the social fabric that sustains this remarkable level of cohesion,
and the spaces produced and inhabited by the community. Buildings are sometimes
self-constructed and usually transformed over time; at the urban scale of the community
the network of narrow alleyways is a direct extension of domestic space, subject to
continuous permutation through dynamic processes of local connections triggering
disconnection at urban level and vice versa.

Space; Marginal Communities

Ban Krua is defined by contrasts. Tourists
traveling on the San Saeb canal often
mistake i t for a s lum, inhabited by a
marginal community passed over by rapid
modernization and globalization. To the
visitors of the traditional Thai houses moved
across the canal and re-assembled by the
silk entrepreneur Jim Thompson, Ban Krua
is introduced as a community of Cambodian
Cham Muslim silk weavers who supplied
hand woven silk cloth in the 1950s and
60s. The economic boom that Ban Krua
experienced during this time has passed, most
silk weavers have closed or relocated their
operations to factories far from the city, and
only two workshops remain active today.
Political scientists recognize in Ban
Krua an exemplar of successful grass-roots
opposition against an infrastructure project.
When the government in 1988 decided to
build a highway exit ramp bisecting Ban
Krua, the community organized nonviolent
protests, symbolic public actions, and
patrolled their spaces to guard against arson
attacks, which had previously been used to
break resistance. Erstwhile success came
in 1993 as the authorities abandoned their
plans. Some political scientists argue that
this triumph not solely is one of the grass-
roots campaign, but also of the communities’
longstanding ties with senior members of the
Thai military and bureaucracy.
As architects and urbanists, we are
interested in the relationship between the
social structure of a community which has
demonstrated such remarkable cohesion, and
the public, shared, and private spaces that
it produces and continuously remakes. Our
field work contributes to a research project
on urban spaces resulting from asynchronous
development, from interaction between
marginalization and concentration. The
project previously studied Jabal Al Natheef, a
Palestinian refugee camp in Amman, Jordan;
further exploration in Mumbai and Santiago

maximum of connectivity and absence
of privacy is reflected in the depiction of
Madonna dell’Impannata within a group
of people in affectionate eye contact and
physically in touch. A second pair, William
Morris’s Red House at Bexley Heath (1859)
along side La belle Iseult (1858), delineates
in plan a series of rooms connected via a
corridor, and in painting a man and a woman
turning away from each other. The desire for
privacy is depicted in painting and afforded
negotiations between neighbors.
The scope of floor plan configurations
in Ban Krua is encapsulated in a sequence
of three buildings that line the Soi (Thai,
alleyway), which links the Saen Saeb canal to
Darulfalah Mosque. Within a space of 50 m,
a traditional Thai house, converted over time,
is followed by the fenced-in residence of a
wealthy silk weaver, and then a recently built
tall apartment building. The lower floor plan
of the Thai house had originally been open to
all sides, and the upper floor plan enclosed by
a porous envelope, without internal partition
on either level. After the authorities had
installed floodgates, and periodical flooding
of the ground level had ceased, the owners
of the Thai house enclosed the ground floor
area, previously used for open air cooking
and eating, first with timber walls, and then
added lavatories built with concrete blocks.
The upper level became subdivided to
allow spaces to be rented by more than one
family. This narrative of increasing enclosure
echoes in the fence of the silk weaver’s
residence, gradually transforming the Soi
into a corridor; finally the apartment building
provides a logical conclusion, with corridors
on three levels providing access to a series of
independent studio apartments. As an urban
ensemble and through the traces of a historical
narrative remaining legible in the Thai house,
the Soi embodies a catalogue of differentiated
levels and varied articulations of spatial and
social interconnection.
Remarkably, these quence of contrasting
buildings maintains a high degree of urban
coherence. As one walks along the Soi, the
experience is that of an ensemble, and not one
of fragmentation, as all variations are based
on a shared theme, the articulation of layered
boundaries between Soi and house. The
Thai house articulates boundaries through
the rendered block walls that were added at
ground level, the house of the silk weaver
through a metal fence, and the apartment
house through a combination of wall, fence,
and sliding panels. Other homes in Ban Krua
are shielded by walls of timber, corrugated
metal, low timber rails, sometimes just by
clotheslines, or utensils placed alongside the
Soi. For all its differentiation in articulation,
this shared theme of screens affording privacy
within very tight spaces lends coherence
to the experience of traveling through the
narrow Sois. This is aided by the fact that
none of the houses are very large, as wealthy,
large families inhabit groups of houses rather
than a single, large building. A remaining silk
weaving workshop, one of the largest houses,
responds to the rhythm of the Soi through
the articulation of its facade, with an open
bay that can be closed by a metal gate, but
otherwise is open to ventilation and to views
in from the alley. The generous opening saves
the Soi from becoming a corridor lined by a
blank wall. In the neighbouring Soi, a family
makes available for a fee a laundry machine
in its living room. Thistrans forms the room
into an extension of the Soi, with some areas
being afforded more privacy on a raised
platform.
Drawn as a continuous ground floor
plan, Ban Krua reveals itself as a matrix of
freestanding, tightly spaced houses. Each gap
between houses might become a public Soi, a
in plan by the corridor. Evans concludes that
the architectural plan describes “the nature of
human relationships”. Ban Krua’s urban plan
is not designed, and the scenes of inhabitation
one encounters are not choreographed. In
contrast to Robin Evans’ artists and architects
that act as mediums through which the spirit
of their era and society expresses itself,
Ban Krua is an assemblage of largely self-
planned and self-constructed buildings, and
an urban disposition produced by incremental
blind alley, or an interstitial space that is gated
off from public access. The Nolli plan notates
the location of private houses (solids), shared
access (voids), and renders in gray shades the
ambiguous spaces, such as passages cut off
from public circulation by gates, or interstitial
space left between houses. This dynamic
adaptability of circulation patterns led us to
propose distinct diagrams of connectivity,
and circulation. Local connections trigger
urban disconnection and vice versa, as metal
gates or more subtle soft boundaries privatize
former Sois and alternate public routes are
established. The traces of such collective
negotiation remain visible in the offsets of the
otherwise linear Soi. All Sois are uniformly
narrow, and even those that serve as principal
means of access are inhabited by residents
and used for storage of household items.
Therefore connection and disconnection never
is binary, allowing for permutations over
time, which would be difficult or impossible
to achieve within more rigidly defined
boundaries of inhabitation.
Interviews with various residents revealed
high levels of satisfaction and appreciation
of Ban Krua’s spaces; even those who could
afford larger homes elsewhere chose to stay
for Ban Krua’s communality and community
cohesion. Could Ban Krua even provide
an alternative model for development? As
its spaces reflect the very specific structure
and culture of a marginal community, set
apart from mainstream society by religion
and shared history, they resist linear transfer
or even translation to other socio-cultural
contexts and developmental dynamics. The
lessons we learned are from the complex and
rich interplay between society and space,
and from Ban Krua’s ability to adapt while
maintaining coherence.

The Overlapped City: Redefining Energy Landscapes in the Post-fossil Era
Howard T. Odum: Environment, Power and Society for the Twenty
First Century: The Hierarchy of Energy.
Howard T. Odum is a pioneer in the fields of ecological engineering,
ecological economics, and environmental accounting. In this classic
work on the significance of power and its role in society, Odum reminds
us the real basis for industrialization progress and our modern lifestyle
(concentrated cities, work time extension through night lights, etc.) is the
great flux of fossil fuel energies in the past 200 years, not (only) from
human brilliance, dedication and political design as many believe. Cheap
energy is temporary. So is growth. We must use available energies for
cultural conversion to steady state. We must prepare ourselves for the
future: New, miniaturized, dilute, delicate ways of man and nature.
Rania Ghosn: Energy as Spatial Project
Rania Ghosn discusses a temporal positioning of energy relative to socio
political factors. The (everyday) landscape of energy should be conceived
as a spatial project: how energy- through extraction, production,
distribution, and use - organizes space(s). What is at stake is a deeper
understanding of the correlation between the management of energy as a
commodity and its impact on territories, socially and physically.
S. Julio Friedmann, Thomas Homer-Dixon: Out of the Energy Box
The article discusses the global energy crises and critiques various
alternatives to the use of fossil fuels. Energy is the essence of modern
civilization, and as societies and economies grow, so does their energy
consumption. Neither reducing energy consumption and increasing its
efficient use nor replacing fossil fuels with alternative sources of energy
would be sufficient to solve our current crisis.
Kevin Bullis: A Billion People in the Dark: Solar-powered Microgrids
Could Help Bring Power to Millions of the World's Poorest
Worldwide, one and a half-billion people lack electricity, most of them
rural dwellers. Connecting a remote community to the conventional power
grid, with its large, centralized plants, is expensive and can take more
than a decade. Kevin Bullis argues that hybrid microgrids can provide
dependable electricity by intelligently combining power from multiple local
sources. This decentralized system is reliable, local and cheap.
Social Fabric and Spatial Permutation - Ban Krua, Bangkok
Robin Evans: Figures, Doors and Passages
Evans' seminal essay discusses the history of architectural plans, and
how these describe "the nature of human relationships" in various epochs.
By comparing paintings to architectural plans, the text explores differing
relationships between spatial organization and social arrangements. The
conclusion questions why the corridor model continues to predominate.
Christoph Lueder: Diagram Utopias: Rota and Network as
Instrument and Mirror of Utopia and Agronica
Comparing Thomas More's Utopia of 1516 to Andrea Branzi's Agronica
of 1993, the essay explores the relationships between texts, plans,
diagrams, and cosmographies as models of an ideal society and its
spatial organization. The historical shift from cyclical and centralized rota
to expansive and transient network diagrams is contextualized within
contemporary urban discourses.
Chaiwat Satha-Anand: Defending Community, Strengthening Civil
Society: A Muslim Minority's Contribution to Thai Civil Society
Satha-Anand provides an account of the non-violent struggle of the
community of Ban Krua against a highway exit ramp that would have
bisected their settlement. He explains the roots of Ban Krua's strong
communal sense in its historical origins as a Muslim Community of
Cambodian lineage.
Rajeswary Ampalavanar Brown: Islamic Pluralism and
Transnationalism: The View from the Waqf
