- PublicationEl recorrido como estrategia en Alvar Aalto Análisis de cuatro obras, 1926-28(Editorial Universitat Politècnica de València, 2014-03-28) García-Escudero, Daniel; Bardí Milà, Berta[EN] This article addresses Alvar Aalto’s architecture by considering the itinerary as a fundamental strategy. The attention towards the users’ circulation movement, and the spaces and elements that propitiate it, allows for the analysis of his work from paradigms which are far from what is dislocated, broken and discontinuous; being the usual features that the critics have used to describe his projects. For all this his first years of professional practise are analyzed, specifically the period from 1926 to 1928. During those years, Aalto developed a series of commissions in Jyväskylä, Turku and Viipuri, in which he consolidates a way of structuring the projects based on approximation, entry and mechanisms of internal movement. Beyond the language change that occurs during this period, it is interesting to highlight certain design tools that he will use throughout his entire career.
- PublicationEl muro como trabajo espacial: los relieves de Jorge Oteiza en la arquitectura (1951-58)(Editorial Universitat Politècnica de València, 2014-03-28) López Bahut, Emma[EN] This paper analyses the mural projects of Basque sculptor Jorge Oteiza on façades and internal walls between the years 1951-58. At first, he dealt with walls as ground planes on which to execute his sculptures, finally viewing them as an empty plane with spatial possibilities, defined by the minimum forms and the action of natural light. Based on original, previously unpublished material, we explore the evolution of this work with the aim of establishing to what extent this process was marked by the architecture on which his work was executed, by the architects with whom he collaborated, or the stage of his sculptural experimentation with which they are associated. We show that apart from the presence of an architect, there is a correlation between the way in which the reliefs were applied to the wall and the work carried out on the space where the project was created: the larger the spatial work on the wall, the greater the relationship with the space within which it was inserted, at every scale, from the interior of the architecture to the urban space.
- PublicationAproximación crítica del "plug" en la re-conceptualización del programa arquitectónico(Editorial Universitat Politècnica de València, 2014-03-28) Beslioglu, Bahar[EN] This paper explores the issue of ‘plug’ in designing program within particular experimental studies in architecture. There was what could be called a critical ‘elaboration’ of program in Archigram’s 1964 ‘Plug-In’ City project, while intriguingly the critical approach taken in the 2001 ‘Un-Plug’ project of Francois Roche and Stephanie Lavaux hinted at a ‘re-evaluation’ of ‘plug’ related to program in architecture. The embedded criticism and creative programmatic suggestions in both projects will be discussed from the point of view of using the accumulated urbanscape as a potential for contemplation, a theme that has also been elaborated, both theoretically and experimentally, by the artist/architect Gordon Matta-Clark in his 1978 ‘Balloon Housing’ project. These experimentations - about the ‘plug’ - need to be discussed in order to understand their contributions as traceable sources to program issue in contemporary architecture.
- PublicationUbicación de instalaciones sin apertura de rozas en cerramientos y particiones cerámicas(Editorial Universitat Politècnica de València, 2014-03-28) García Quesada, Rafael[EN] To open chases in a wall, made of ceramics bricks, blocks or thermal blocks is, actually, a traditional locating system for installations. It is an expensive, slow, dangerous and destructive system prone to diseases. Traditionally the parameters of thermal conductivity and acoustic insulation of a brick, ceramic block or thermal blocks provided by a manufacturer, have been the result of executing a wall (partition or structural wall) made of that material, but without the opening chases. Companies have been giving some values which really could not comply with regulations. The way to solve this failure to comply is twofold. The first option is to endow the ceramic piece with some safety co-efficient, as far as acoustic and thermal insulation is concerned; so that once the installations have been located in the different chases they meet the minimum requirements set by the regulations. The second option, subject of this paper, is to locate installations within the same geometry of the ceramic piece and so, three patents will be explained briefly to illustrate this point. The European guidelines in the field of energy efficiency in 2010 (2010/31/UE, 19 May), and 2012 (2012/27/UE 25 October), together with the 2013 Spanish executive orders, RD 238/2013 (Regulations for the Thermal Installations on Buildings, RITE, modification) and RD 235/2013 (energy efficiency), severely penalize worsening/weakening of passive conditioning and more specifically, they severely penalize the opening of chases. Therefore, it is time to look for eco-solutions to secure a safe and efficient commercialization of the ceramic closing/wall.
