The Holcim Awards 2011 for Asia Pacific Winners

By Alison Furuto
 
1st prize 01
The Asia Pacific winners of the Holcim Awards for sustainable construction were recently announced in Singapore. The Holcim Awards is an international competition that recognizes innovative projects and future-oriented concepts on regional and global levels. The competition is designed to encourage architects, planners, engineers and project owners to go beyond conventional notions of sustainable construction in their work and to harmonize ecological, social and economic concerns. Projects and concepts in the fields of architecture, landscape architecture, urban design, civil engineering, mechanical engineering and related fields are eligible for entry in the competition. More images and information on the winning competition proposals after the break.
1st prize 02
The Holcim Awards Gold 2011 for Asia Pacific (USD 100,000) was awarded to a project that upgrades a traditional building method with effective low-tech measures through engineering and design. The Earthen School Tipu Sultan Merkez, in a small village near Lahore, Pakistan and designed by architect Eike Roswag of Ziegert Roswag Seiler Architekten Ingenieure, Germany, is constructed using a cob (clay, sand, water, and straw) lower-floor combined with an upper floor made of earth-filled bamboo walls. Intense research on cob construction resulted in a significant increase in strength and durability, and extended maintenance intervals compared to former approaches.
2nd prize 01
Holcim Awards Silver went to the conversion of a former textile factory and adjacent land into a 1.4ha agricultural production site and retail outlet in central Bangkok. The Urban Farm Urban Barn designed by a project team led by Isavaret Tamonut of TTH Trading reintroduces elements of self-sufficiency while also reconnecting food production and consumption.
3rd prize 01
Holcim Awards Bronze was awarded to a team led by architect Ken Yeang of T R Hamzah & Yeang International for a 14-level commercial and retail building located in Malaysia’s federal administrative city of Putrajaya. The building brings together state-of-the-art technologies appropriate for high-quality use in two interconnected towers that use vegetation to actively reduce energy consumption, provide solar shading, and create comfortable spaces considering all requirements of utilization.

Bjarke Ingels Makes No Little Plans

Danish architect Bjarke Ingels, principal of Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG), has set his sights on the Big Apple. Since September, he has been jet-setting back and forth between his Copenhagen headquarters and his new Manhattan office in preparation for a closely-watched mystery debut.
Already an established member of the young architectural vanguard (with an icon of his own in the shape of a figure-eight-shaped housing complex in Copenhagen), Ingels told AN that he is prepared to take American real-estate development head-on: “Everyone has been warning us that it’s impossible to work with American developers—that they’re too profit-driven,” Ingels said. “But it’s really exactly the same with developers everywhere.”

While some architects balk at the idea of working with big-time developers, Ingels enjoys finding overlapping interests. In fact, Ingels is working on a new book tentatively called Bigamy, detailing this manifesto of inclusivism, much of which he said he sees all around New York. “It’s what America is all about,” the architect said. “Bigamy is a radical embrace of different interests and ideas. To accommodate instead of eliminate. America’s surf-and-turf is the best example of bigamy. Combining two opposite things into a new hybrid is really quite delicious.”
For Ingels, developer and architect can be allies. “People want nice apartments with good views, day light, and good public spaces. That’s also good marketing for a developer. When you increase the quality, you increase the value. We’re designing for overlap.”

After completing a series of large-scale residential blocks in Copenhagen, BIG’s first American commission pushes the boundaries further and appears tailor-made for sustainable-minded Ingels. Last year, the Durst Organization, developer of the ultra-green Bank of America Tower, invited BIG to evaluate a massive site along Manhattan’s West Side for a planned residential project. “Durst is really innovative, especially in terms of the sustainable highrise,” said Ingels.
BIG’s 57th Street project isn’t their first foray into North American architecture, either. Ingels worked on the Seattle Public Library while still at the Office for Metropolitan Architecture in the 1990s and is currently working on a high rise in Vancouver, a museum competition on the East Coast, and recently partnered with SOM on a proposal for the St. Louis Gateway Arch design competition (the Michael Van Valkenburg team won).
Ingels’ own big plans are to also go west: “Chicago hasn’t found its form yet, but we’re in talks with [developer] Dan McCaffery about a large, mixed-use New Urban waterfront development,” he explained. The project would be part of the four-billion-dollar, SOM-planned South Works, on the site of an old U.S. Steel plant.

While the physical forms of BIG’s designs can seem radically new, Ingels insists they are the product of continuous evolution rather than revolution. “I believe in the exchange of ideas over time. Revolutions are messy. You lose a lot of stored cultural knowledge by starting from scratch, and end up making the same mistakes anew.”
Ingels sees New York in its own evolutionary period brought about by financial and climate stress. “These crises are allowing for a reconsideration of the parameters that created a city like New York,” he said, pointing to the city’s advances in bike lanes, amenities like the High Line, and an initiative to plant one million trees as evidence of this shift. Already raring to go like a real New Yorker, the architect said, “We’re blurring the boundary between urban and suburban, and merging them into a hybrid that allows us to explore more interesting typologies.”
Ingels is keeping a closed mouth on further details about the anticipated 57th Street project. “All I can say is that 57th Street represents the marriage between the European courtyard building and the American skyscraper. But there’s a lot of room in there. Even if you know what the parents look like, you can’t tell how the child will end up.”

How Architects Work in the Current Times

By.Baraona Pohl
“What defines the Internet is its social architecture. It’s the living environment that counts, the live interaction, not just the storage and retrieval procedure.” -Geert Lovink, 2005

Last week we were invited to the HP Designjet Launch and BIG’s House 8 Presentation. The experience was really striking, because being there with some other architects and bloggers, made us think about how work systems are changing so fast, that some times is difficult to even notice them until you find yourself inside that system, working and sharing information without any limitations.
That made us re-think about what social networks and web 2.0 are doing in the field of architectural production. All the new tools we’re discovering every day, make the practice more collaborative and open. Some months ago, we wrote in a guest post for Ymag:
Now communication is more dynamic and also it may be a little bit confusing because of that. With blogs actualized every single day and using social networks as facebook and twitter, architects may have a personal contact in between them, with the users of their buildings and also with researchers that are working on new materials and constructive solutions.

At that time, we were speculating and trying to describe the reality we found around us, but now, we can positive say that the architecture field, at least the firms working on projects in different countries at the same time, is taking advantage of all these tools to materialise ideas, as Bjarke Ingels [founder of ] showed at his presentation.

There are also two points we want to remark here, the first one is that we find amazing that some big companies, in this case HP, are providing their clients not only their products, but also a service using cloud computing. The ties in between users from different places help to create new ways of understanding the work-flow. With these new tools, now it’s possible to enable technical design teams to easily access, share and print large format project files online anytime, anywhere, as they pointed.
For the event, they not only invited traditional media but also hp a group of bloggers, including The Pop-Up City, Archimag, urbanophil, pwcom 2.0 and us; and also gave us the opportunity to meet “face-to-face” some other people that we were already following via twitter or facebook. The fact of thinking on bloggers to attend to this kind of events is a positive one, that brings to mind Javier Arbona’s question, when he asked: “Has a blog actually had a significant impact on a building in the process of being designed or built? What was the outcome?”
House 8 - BIG
After the press presentation, we were invited to visit BIG’s House 8, that was released here at ArchDaily before, and also here you can find the work-in-progress videos. Bjarke Ingels presented the project and the book Yes is More. Here are some images about the House 8 in a cloudy day and some others about Bjarke’s presentation:

Rem Koolhaas on CNN, the end of the star architect?

By David Basulto


CNN’s Talk Asia just featured an interesting interview with . At the beginning of the video we see the Prada Transformer in action.
Highlights of this interview are Dubai, which lead to Koolhaas talking about the public sector and the stimulus, and his views on the Generic City.
When talking about influence (Rem was on the 100 most influential people list by Time magazine in 2008) and “star architects”, Koolhaas sentences the term to death:
“I think it’s a name that is actually degrading to the vast majority of people it is applied to. And it really is a kind of political term that for certain clients is important because they use star architects. My hope is that through the current complexity that title will exit discretely and disappear”.
