ALPITECTURE – CODE 1-09

The Alps form a unique habitat in the heart of Europe, where geology, topography and climate, extreme conditions often determine the development of flora and fauna.Over centuries, man has, from generation to generation adapted himself to and worked with the landscape. New technologies have on the one hand made life in the Alpine region easier; while on the other they have contributed to a fundamental change in the landscape.

Architecture is an expressesion of the culture of the population of a region. It is in-fluenced by social structure, politics, economy etc. in relation to history. Buildings can help to categorise eras. They are a manifestation of our current time period sympathising with it in a new-build. Modern day industrial societies tend to dou-ble their knowledge every 5 years as information becomes more available, wich together with globalisation, influences their culture. Specialisation is necessary to be able to operate in an economically successful way. In respect to location, ar-chitecture links the interests of builders and the public with the most recent tech-nology under the coordination of the company carrying out the work. Interfaces of a growing network are formed which must be linked through communication.

alpitecture provides space to discuss existing development and realise new visi-ons. Visions which today can in part already be realised. They can give impetus for an architecturally broader development, i.e. also technical and economic.

With alpitecture a platform is created for exchanging knowledge and experiences under the themes “Alps, architecture and technology”; a catalyst for conceptuali-sation of projects in the building world; a model for other regions.

South Tyrol is characterised by contrasts – mountain and valley, industry and agriculture, transition and tourism etc – here, the cultures of the Mediterranean area blend with those of the Ladin population as well as German-based culture from north of the Brenner Pass.A diversity has developed over the centuries, involuntarily marking the cultural landscape of the region.

Limited opportunities for expansion and multi-layered interests make a culture of communication a high priority so as to formulate universal rules which might guarantee the development of a future orientated building culture in the province. The participants of alpitecture could well believe the exemplary position of South Tyrol but expressed themselves in a sceptical and quite convincing way about existing possibilities and procedures.

Under the management of the two partners Andreas Hild and Dionys Ottl, this young and ambitious team in Munich works at a high pro-fessional level on their commissioned projects, contributing to discourse about architecture. In addition to restoration work and the preser-vation of monuments, which open up many opportunities to reinvent a building when dealing with the project portfolio, public residential buildings and state school construction are also a focus points, during which our office takes the required effective allocation of resources and deadlines very seriously.Various residential and detached homes have been constructed at the highest level with ambitious builders.Interior design involving complex use requirements, exhibition design, furniture and product design have considerably expanded the office’s repertoire over the past few years, whereby small construction assignments and bus stops are approached from a holistic perspective and examined for their multi-layered (and in this case also in terms of urban space) qualities.

• Currently curator of the series of events “Foodline” in designmonat graz Foundation 1999 We work within the context, approach projects pragmatically and develop clear, unconventional concepts based on our knowledge. Our work therefore has the appearance of being very simple. Overlaid with the different influential factors, the projects become more complex, the topic is interpreted in many layers, is sampled, modulated, abstracted or remixed.

Inspiration We are influenced by small and large things in the world. Our motto is: ‘Work with the brain and act with the heart’. Design is not an end in itself and is not the main focus, but rather conveys the concept as a logical consequence. We do not seek to achieve a flawless ideal of beauty in our buildings. We create “character features”, charismatic objects with personality and small, congenial “characteristics”.

OFFICE PROFILE KEGGENHOFF I PARTNER The rooms and buildings we develop nationally and internationally by order of constructors can be clearly defined: interior architecture, architecture and corporate design as a complete package, as a unit - tailored, target-orientated, emotional and functional. Material and colour compositions, surface and structure contrasts, the interplay of light and shadows are all given special consideration. Geometric basic forms and clearly defined references are a central theme in our designs and create overall conceptual unity. A precise analysis forms the basis for the achievement of qualitatively high-value and responsible solutions.

Sabine Keggenhoff, member of the BDIA and the AKNW, owner of KEGGENHOFF I PARTNER is, among other things, associate professor of Interior Architecture “Introduction to Design” at the Detmolder School of Architecture and Interior Ar-chitecture.After studying interior architecture in Germany and completing an architecture scholarship at the University of South Wales in Sydney and placements in Ams-terdam, she founded KEGGENHOFF I PARTNER in 2001 with Michael Than. Her activities and internal core skills include the consistent combination of complimentary disciplines such as interior architecture, architecture, design and communication.Her work is frequently published and has been recognised with national and in-ternational design prizes. Her professional knowledge and commitment to the super-ordinate topic of “ROOM” are also documented in the form of numerous presentations, jury sittings, professional bodies, congresses and workshops.

MGF Architekten GmbH Stuttgart is involved in national and international competitions, surveys and the resulting construction work. The various scales and graphic representation of the built model determine the development of form and destiny of the building. Clear geome-tric structures and orders define the expression of architecture and therefore reflect a unique creative identity. Modularity and sequencing as aesthetic principles are the foundations of creative appearance. The ideal architectural form is an integrative form of many individual designs. A simple and generous attitude and clear materialism when designing and building highlight the quality of the respective location. The integration of the main structure and the function and technology within the form give it its special brilliance.The conception and planning of rooms offers a robust basis when creating the building. Materials and construction form the design. The parts and the whole are related both geometrically and formally and influence each other. Extensively natural materials define the atmos-phere of the built rooms and reflect the discovered location.

The architecture office schneider+schumacher in Frankfurt am Main was founded in 1998 by the architects Till Schneider and Michael Schuma-cher. Simplicity and perfection, discipline and mood, optimal functionality and memorable images: non-dogmatic work defined by simplicity and elegance show all of these antitheses and contradictions as what they really are: only visible antagonisms which can be unified to create striking buildings where people enjoy spending time. These are the aims of the planning strategies schneider+schumacher develop for each project. One of the company’s first well-known constructions, which has now become legendary, was the info box in Potsdam Square, Berlin. The ad-vertising agency J. W. Thompson in Frankfurt a. M., the administrative building KPMG in Leipzig, the BRAUN administrative centre in Kronberg i.Ts., the offices and hotel CUBUS in Dusseldorf, the high bay warehouse ERCO in Lüdenscheid, the museum Gedenkstätte Sachsenhausen in Oranienburg, the new city quarter Westhafen in Frankfurt a. M., a banking project for EuroHypo in Eschborn near Frankfurt a.M. are all excellent, well-publicised projects for which the company has received many prizes.

OGRAMM

HISTORICAL AND CULTURAL MERITS OF SOUTH TYROL

AS A WARM-UP AND TO HAVE A PRELIMIARY INSIGHT INTO THE REGION OF BOLZANO-SOUTH TYROL, RECOGNISED PERSONALITIES REPORT ON VARIOUS SUBJECTS IN RESPECT OF THE AUTONOMOUS PROVINCE.

The name Tyrol comes from Terriolis (Terra) and means land. A land which the dioceses Chur, Brixen and Trent fought to have influence over. In the late Middle Ages, there began a brisk economic exchange. There emerged “courted residen-ces” for the nobility on the land. The cities developed independently in mediaeval structures, but were fundamentally reshaped in the course of time. In the 19th century the historical Bolzano was suburbanised, other cities degenerated into small district towns. It was a time without impetus. In 1868 a railway line provi-ded an easier crossing over the Brenner. At the turn of the 19th century Merano developed into a spa town. The beginnings of tourism emerged. In the 1920s and 1930s industrialisation was forced onto the rurally-stamped structure. The building boom during the fascism of the last few decades was carried out in a historically unprecedented manner without properly taking account of the “soul of the land”, the farming community.Today the „last grains of memory of a rural basic structure“ survive in the form of farmhouses from the 15th century with a ceiling height of 1.60 metres.After the disruption in two World Wars, South Tyrol’s struggle for autonomy led in 1972 to the “South Tyrol Package” with a new autonomy statute for the province of Bolzano.“History is the present of yesterday, not to be obliterated from today.”

REGIONAL AND TRAFFIC PLANNING IN SOUTH TYROL

THE ECONOMY OF SOUTH TYROL AND ITS NICHES

Natural spaces – Variety in the heart of the Alps;37 % of the province is over 2,000 metres, 13% is less than 1,000 metres, and only 6.8% is suitable for permanent settlement areas.The population of South Tyrol has developed from a farming people to a ser-vice society. The economic sectors are balanced with percentages in agriculture (11%), industry (4.9%), hotel and restaurant industry (11%), service (26%) and the public sector (16%). The average business size is around 4 employees.South Tyrol belongs to the top 20 economic regions in the heart of an economic-ally strong area with 1,900 billion euros purchasing power within a radius of 500 km.The GDP amounts to 31,000 euros per inhabitant. There are two mentalities as a result of the cultural intersection and language competence.The monocultures in fruit growing and wine growing carry a lion‘s share of the total turnover in agriculture, with 47.5 % and 12.2 %.Industry/trade; 400 larger companies with more than 15 employees have an ex-port quota of 45 % and on average the companies achieve 17 %. The building sector achieves 90 % of the turnover at home.13,000 trade industries achieve 72 % of their success on their own market.Wholesale uses South Tyrol as an allocative and bridge function to the Italian market. With 27.7 million overnight stays the year 2008 represents a record for tourism.The public hand with a budget of 5 billion euros represents an important emplo-yer.Around 4 % of the budget is invested in housing.In quality the products made from metal processing convince more than wood-working in an image comparison.The rate of unemployment in South Tyrol is currently around 2.6 %.

In the Building Law Reform Act of 1977, permission to build became a right which has to be acquired by the land (building concession). This is granted to many citizens today.“We cannot afford not to plan“. In the LEROP (Landesentwicklungs- und Raum-ordnungsplan – The Provincial Land Use and Development Plan), the Landtag (state parliament) determines regional planning goals, and strategies are determi-ned by the Landesregierung (provincial government). The Landesregierung esta-blish the appropriate measures. Urban land use plans issued by the Gemeinderat (local community council) determine the binding regulations.The local community council board is responsible for executing the plan with implementation schemes.In 1974 a prognosis for developing the population and tourism was created. This assumed 520,000 inhabitants (in fact, 2005: 483,000) and 330,000 tourists (in fact, 2005: 215,000). On the basis of this prognosis possible population densities were examined and planning measures as well as goals established.Südtirol ein Paradies auf Zeit (South Tyrol, a paradise of its time); brochure by Alfons Benedikter.LG (Landesraumordnungsgesetz – Regional Planning Law) No. 6/1970, Policy: You may build in building areas.A temporary solution until urban land use plans are produced and restricted within the enclosed locality. LG No. 38/1973 – All communities are obliged to produce an urban land use plan, identification of building areas only as necessary for 10 years, rigorous checks throughout the province. Housing Reform Law (LG No. 15/1972), new housing areas (<70% used) are “expansion zones”. In the ex-pansion zones 50/55 % of the feasible building volume must be given over to assisted housing (today 55/60 %). If this is not effected then the entitlement to build is withdrawn. After the entitlement is withdrawn the areas are allotted to be-neficiaries according to hierarchy; an implementation scheme must be produced. Property is the possession of the community, and so the public domain is able to withdraw entitlement to building land.

ARCHITECTURE IN SOUTH TYROL

REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT AND LOCATION MANAGEMENT

Historical exchange with the centres of Vienna and Munich, building of summer resorts in the form of swanky hotels. Development at a standstill after the First World War. Neo-romantic trends and regionalisation in the time between the wars. Finally in the 1930s regionalism and new physicality (Hotel Panna) according to the understanding of the National Socialist image of humanity. Alpine hotels emerged. New trends through buildings which blend into the location and convey lightness emerged through builders such as Lois Welzenbacher.Fascistic claim for Bolzano: Steel industry and 100,000 inhabitants (although Bolzano has no ore and coal deposits). The expansion of the town through an industrial area towards the south results in the highest temperatures at 4 pm in the inner city. Industrial areas heat up and the wind from the Garda Lake carries the heat wave into the town.The modern age is regarded as an Italian phenomenon. The Heimatpflegeverband (Association for the Preservation of Local Customs and Traditions) turned towards National Socialist ideas and reconsidered the South Tyrolean form catalogue from the 1930s. In 1953 the first high-rise building in Bolzano with 11 floors, architect Luis Plattner. From 1960-1980 over 43 million cubic metres of cubic capacity were built, double what was already existing.Experiments: semi-rural against high-rise blocks.Innovative projects were enabled by the Church which summoned up the courage when building to try out new design forms, for example Cusanus Akademie Brixen (Cusanus Academy in Brixen), Othmar Barth 1962, Mädchenschule Tschötsch bei Brixen (Tschötsch Girl’s School near Brixen), Othmar Barth 1970. In the 1980s, strict policy for regional planning disappeared. Urban planning developments were neglected. In individual quarters public space was considered in terms of the community spirit.Today, there are a multitude of successful projects which have emerged from the actual context of the place.

Gröden as an example: economic monostructure, fragile balance between de-veloped and non-developed nature. Strong pressure to act on an urban land use plan.Self-perception of tourist companies: Tourism comes before industry and state, but that is not true. It molds the region above infrastructure. On average every hotel business has 30 beds. The hotel and restaurant industry contributes around 12 % to the revenue. The requirements of a region in competition can be divided into basic factors, competition factors (among others architecture) and differentiators (special com-petences).The umbrella brand South Tyrol presents the core competence. It defines itself in substance, core and differentiators. Derived from the attractiveness of the location from the point of view of the inhabitants, companies and guests. A location has several functions: space for mobility, space for attraction and space for experi-ence.Location management in South Tyrol means integrating business principles into regional development and location issues. The location becomes a company whose management guides future development in a planned direction and in this considers more than a location factor and more than a target group (companies, inhabitants, guests).It is no longer a product which is offered, but integrated service systems from several branches.

Completion: 2004

A house like a mountain, with shafts and trenches, deep clefts and air wells. A concrete ashlar which appears to grow from out of the ground. A house of science – precise and exact. The new construction of the Fakultät für Bildungswissen-schaften der Universität Brixen (Faculty for Pedagogy at the University of Brixen) completed in 2004 looks like a town palace which does not atomise its surround-ings but integrates and amalgamates structures grown up in small sections.The square building complex with 75 metres edge length pushes the boundari-es of the classical access balconies and arcades of South Tyrol. A public area surrounds the university core zone as an elevated, three-floored ring, with labo-ratories, libraries, gymnastics room, auditorium (Aula Magna), canteen as well as recreation rooms.Air wells open up the large building volume on a gross floor area of 23,000 square metres. Clear rhythms determine the building – reduced materials and perfect workmanship. In its precision and exact execution down to the last detail, the house of the chief architect Kohlmayer is evocative of Swiss standards.

MANINCOR VINEYARD

Builder: Michael Graf Goëss-EnzenbergArchitects: Walter Angonese, Rainer Köberl, Silvia BodayCompletion: 2004

Now they are available for purchase: the wines of vintage 2007, a great vintage of multi-layered wines which „open slowly at first and then develop into harmonious complexity”, promises the current vineyard report “manincor 09“. It is almost the same with visitors of the Manincor estate built in 1609 over the Kalterer See. Nothing to see of a vineyard, neither steel cylinders nor oaken vats where its wines are slowly maturing.Nothing more than a concrete pavilion behind the main building and a ramp which leads into the mountain.The wine grows above, but in the hill it gains character. In 1996 Michael Graf Göess-Enzenberg took over the residence and built a modern vineyard with ar-chitects Walter Angonese, Silvia Boday and Rainer Köberl. An enormous gate welcomes the visitors who descend three floors deep into the hill. Halls without supports, concrete and of high humidity. At the end, there is a wine-tasting ses-sion in a piece of concrete boldly breaking out of the hill, with folded ceiling and leather framework round the steel windows.

Buddha is smiling. And welcoming all visitors who march into the Sigmundskron Castle.Deceleration has been the motto, since mountain legend Reinhold Messner ex-pensively renovated the ruins and made them into the centrepiece of the “Messner Mountain Museum”.The architect Werner Tscholl hardly touched the MMM Firmian, as the castle is called again, alluding to its first name. The economical installations are reversible, glass roofs as well as pipe, electricity and water pipes are invisible from outside. A course out of rusting steel meanders around porphyry rocks and along the late mediaeval battlements. The setting from the architect seems so light-footed and firm, so brilliantly connected with the place and its history that footbridges and metal bars appear both modern and ancient at the same time. The path leads through man-made grottos and towers and on to arranged exhibits, loop-holes give a clear view of the Alps and the industrial quarter of Bolzano. On the confluence of the rivers Etsch and Eisack where in 1957 Silvius Magnago demanded autonomy with around 30,000 Tyroleans, the present and the past is clear. The MMM, opened on 9th June 2006, contains space installations – a fascinating complete artwork.

TOPIC: FOR WHAT REASONS ARE THE ALPS, USING SOUTH TYROLAS AN EXAMPLE, AN ATTRACTIVE LOCATION FOR ARCHITECTURE?

28WO

RKSHOP

1

Everyone talks of the Alps but what resonates here in the way of significance, ideas and feelings? A structural analysis of the Alpine area opens the view for the special atmospheres of geographical natural space, which want to be perceived, recognised and increased. From its basic contradictions and distortions there emerge particular challenges and opportunities for designers and the building industry: Economical handling of resources and a feeling for the size of nature almost appears to be inevitable in opening out particular qualities when manufac-turing the products.Alpine pictures, Alpine peculiarities from the point of view of the inhabitants (view from inside) and guests (view from outside) form the potential for architecture in South Tyrol to achieve a sustainable coexistence between nature and cultural landscape, transition and stability, ecology and economy. Cultural particularities and global marketing are not opposed to each other, but depend on each other. The special situation of South Tyrol, in the switching from separating and linking, alongside and with each other, inevitably leads to the dialogue as determining feature of a province with a bridge function. From that a culture grew which links development and advancement with the strength for preservation, must endure differences and variety, as well as allow for contradictions. Only in this way will a liberal building law and cooperation with local authorising bodies in their interplay with the interests of economy and tourism lead to a unique architecture.The goals for planners and architects are therefore: In a region which is actually only 5% constructible and whose settlement area again has an urban sprawl of 25 percent, policy guidelines must be formulated which foster sustainable growth and at the same time keep traditional values and cultural assets – a challenge for all participants and subsequent generations.

TOPIC: ARCHITECTURE AND NATURE – INTEGRATIVE PLANNING IN NATURAL AND SETTLEMENT AREAS

Alpine areas are fragile - they need special effort not to lose the cohesion of settle-ment, landscape and networks of pathways in cultural and natural areas.Therefore in the centre of an integrative planning there is the place itself - its parti-cularities, qualities and limits. Architecture without regard to context will fail.In the centre of an ecologically friendly concept of building works for industry, tou-rism and living are therefore objectives of what life should look like in the future, how conflicts of interests can be resolved in dialogue, how opportunities can be opened up with today‘s available materials and technical solutions.Earth movements, developments and dimensions of today’s constructions will form our future.Planning under the specific requirements of South Tyrol therefore means achie-ving place orientation and space perception, formulating urbanistic guidelines and strengthening the responsibility of the communities and regions: settlement pressure must be countered in existing structures through appropriate measures, through inner-development and further building. It’s about using diverse inter-faces between management and design to achieve a friendly encounter with na-ture. Only measuring architecture according to the cubage, as happens from time to time, leads to a dead end. New, intelligent instruments are required to achieve the unique cultural landscape of South Tyrol in balancing architecture and nature and to strengthen it for the future.

Building in the Alps will also in the future be marked with the following premises: Only around five percent of the area is actually settlement area, of this a quarter is again urban sprawl. It is valid to recognise nature and culture as basic values equally needing protection. After a basic morphological analysis for building in the Alps – from the metropolis of Bolzano to the alp – it appears that a dynamic regio-nal planning concept must take „landscape personalities” into consideration. “Sustainability” forms as it were the crash barrier for stable zones which also remain in the future. Whether the digging of the Brenner basic tunnel is used for scenic modelling, or piled up business zones – industrial park high-rise buildings as it were, emerge, we can‘t get around the fact that variability and flexibility form the basic requirements for scenarios whether the town „Bolzano“ is in the centre or whether the focus is on the urban space or rural space.It is essential for the future to reformulate the contrast of town and country, culture and nature and to encourage sustainable developments with new, encompassing planning instruments.

What constitutes South Tyrol and how can traditions and future economic develop-ments be linked? Architecture forms an essential component for the identity, but also the economy of the province. What could a package of measures look like which supports architectural development? Scenarios are linked to planning instruments which have been created in the last few centuries.The Landesentwicklungs- und Raumordnungsplan (LEROP) (The Provincial Land Use and Development Plan) remains fundamental, involving politics, economy and associations. It’s about anchoring the identification with the design process: LEROP is wanted, comprehensible and evaluable. Urban land use plans define the respective use of areas and give clear guidelines for concrete development plans, the mandato-ry design of large zones through competition.It’s about optimising public space and offering the balance between usage and na-ture, for example through re-densification and targeted de-settlement. These design rules offer clear guidelines for development.Design advisory councils serve the quality assurance for the individual measures. They create awareness for the additional benefit of planning and public tenders and offer an exchange of experience for all those participating in the building. Good de-sign requires an attitude shift on three levels: rethinking, thinking further, thinking again. Good design and the desire for unique architecture is not enough. Building and economy only gain through basic conditions for urban development.

How can the advantages of South Tyrol and its companies be best exploited at the interface of North and South, from Italian lifestyle and Austrian tradition?Anyone who studies successful marketing strategies of the past will establish that it pays to invest in an umbrella brand which must be set up and strengthened.The co-branding of the company latches on to the established acclaim of South Tyrol and attaches itself to specific factors like the manufacturing quality and per-sonality of the company.But how to design innovation processes and how to control them? Above all: From what standard factors are company advantages generated? Targeted stra-tegies are essential, for example participation in competitions (red dot Hannover) to assure design excellence.There is also long-term research which optimises processes and creates bases for successful economies as well as a differentiated product range. Obvious part-ners for innovation processes are found in universities and among designers (de-signers, architects). Companies should use this know-how to establish their own company culture.South Tyrol‘s economy is in an outstanding position if it succeeds in combining traditional qualities and personality with a successful branding of their products and services. Therefore: Courage to be one of a kind as also to experiment.

LECTURE BY STEFAN BEHNISCH: ARCHITECTURE MARKED BY ITS CONTENT – PLANNING IN THE CONTEXT OF ENVIRONMENT

SUSTAINABLE ARCHITECTURE EMERGES IN INTERACTION WITH TOPOGRAPHICAL, CLIMATIC, GEOPOLITICAL AND CULTURAL SITUATIONS AT THE LOCATION.

Dimensions of sustainability

The time of the international modern age which could build anything and eve-rything everywhere is gone. If we at that time bought comfortableness through cheap energy, in the future it’s a question of planning and building long-term.But what lies behind the buzzword? Prof. Stefan Behnisch explained diverse cultural meanings and consequences of sustainable planning. In 2004 the main headquarters of the Genzyme Cooperation emerged in Cambridge which achieved the LEED Platinum within the year and the RIBA Worldwide Award of the Royal Institute of British Architects. An observation of buildings purely from an energy perspective is too superficial. We must discover sustainability in its manifold aspects – such as spatial planning and lighting design, planning for free space, a sense for the place and its qualities, its atmosphere.In a virtual tour through significant projects of the Stuttgart office, impressions of a sustainable and responsible architecture flashed by. New materials and light concepts link the Stralsund “Ozeaneum” (aquarium) with construction plans for the Campus at the Harvard University. The consequent future use of existing buil-dings is also extracted from the work of the office. In addition there are invest-ments in the common property of public space.High-quality architecture alone unites design, sustainability and prospects for the future – a central challenge for the whole building industry and all builders.

Building in the Alps constitutes a permanent challenge.

How can urban sprawls be countered, how can we link lead projects for development and economic growth with protection of our unique landscape? A top-class panel of experts from architecture and economics discussed the possibilities, opportunities, but also the risks of Alpine building, focussing on the situation in South Tyrol.The panel rejected one-sided regionalisms, as well as concepts of the modern age which are accepted unchecked. Contemporary architecture creates iden-tity as the surrounding extreme natural space forms a particular cultural space. Architecture is in this way part of an encompassing raising of awareness - it strengthens the cohesion of self-determination, self-responsibility, self-confidence and self-awareness which must take place in dialogue.Clever planning goes beyond cubage and spacing – it creates a balance between nature and culture, econo-mics and relaxation. If architecture and infrastructure become parts of an integrated structure policy, per-spectives open up for everyone.Because of its history, its lively tradition and the high quality of the building industry, South Tyrol has the best requirements for advancing innovation in buil-ding.Clever building in the Alps relates to topographical, geopolitical, economical, structural and social fac-tors and serves as a catalyst for cooperation between economy and building culture in the future.
