Ist his the future? Will we live in treehouses, as our ancestors? Hope there will still be trees in the future.... </p><p>Because <a href="http://www.archinode.com/Arch9fab.html" target="_blank">Mitchell Joachim</a> from the <a href="http://www.media.mit.edu/" target="_blank">Mit Media Lab</a>, in the USA propose to build a house not on a tree, but out of a tree.. The idea is to "guide" the tree so it can grow up in a way that it can be a house for a family. Do you see any problem? Ecologically correct, responsable, comfortable.. this project has all the good characteristics to be consider as the the future of sustainable building. Just a moment.. is not ready yet.. THis house needs decades to be build.. but that is not the problem. The real problem is that if everyone wants one of this houses, I have to change my job!!!</p>]]></description><pubDate>Sun, 09 Dec 2007 16:11:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>The eye of the fly..

That happens particulary in Italy, where the artistic and historic buildings, cities, appear as an open air museum where nobody can&acute;t and shouldn&acute;t do anithing. That is a great idea you would say! But of course there is a problem.. It seems like some things as awful solar panels, terrible wind turbines, or tremendous PV can ruin centuries of history and of course the marvellous sightseeing in the most famous lagune of the world, while huge <a href="http://www.port.venice.it/pdv/Servizi.do?metodo=elenco_operatori" target="_blank">cruiseboats</a> can entry in Piazza San Marco without problems.. </p><p>Great!

El concepto, ya desarrolado hace algunos a&ntilde;os por unos t&eacute;cnicos alemanes y propuesto tambi&eacute;n en Australia, se basa en un principio muy simple.. El aire, que pasa por debajo de la cobertura en material transparente que veis en la foto de arriba, se calienta y entra en en la torre aumentando su velocidad. Al pasar por una turbina colocada en la base ( o en su tope ) de esta torre, genera energia. Este principio estaba ya muy conocido; en Australia hace unos a&ntilde;os se queria implantar una de esta torres, pero es la primera vez que se considera verdaderamente su construcci&oacute;n.

The important thing, in my opinion, ist that in this case there is also a community aspect. In fact, almost every citizen of the island is involved or has interests in this business. You will say: " <em>ok, but they have a great potential in using wind as a source of renewable energy</em>" well, that&acute;s partially right ( 75% of the energy production comes from wind turbines ), but they also use another large amount of others " sustainable energies" as biogas plants ( 21 % ), solar cell plants ( 1 % ), and farm-based biogas ( 2 % ). The social aspect of this project, which&nbsp; it&acute;s probably the most important, is that every householder of the island takes part in the growing of this project by being a partner ( economic or by installing a wind turbine in his own courtyard ). Probably that is the only way that we can grow with good <em>energy education</em> , just by getting involved and taking part of what can even be a great business, not only for the single citizens but for the entire community. </p>]]></description><pubDate>Thu, 01 Nov 2007 01:00:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Parques eco-industriales</title><link>https://softarchitecture.blogia.com/2007/102803-parques-eco-industriales.php</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://softarchitecture.blogia.com/2007/102803-parques-eco-industriales.php</guid><description><![CDATA[La idea de aplicar principios de sostenibilidad al apartado "productivo" o industrial deberia hacerse m&aacute;s a menudo.. de hecho algunos ejemplos como el de <a href="http://www.symbiosis.dk/index.htm">Kalendborg</a> o Herning y Ikast, ciudades de Dinamarca que han apostado por ello, lo demuestran. Lo que creo interesante es no s&oacute;lo recuperar las zonas industriales existentes con una visi&oacute;n "ecol&oacute;gica" sino apostar por crear redes industriales, como las de estos dos ejemplos de Dinamarca, donde, aunque las industrias mismas no sean lo m&aacute;s adecuado para el ambiente ( se trata de f&aacute;bricas farmaceuticas, refinadoras petr&oacute;liferas y productores de yeso ) se ha intentado crear entre ellas una red que consiga el aprovechamiento de los residuos de la producci&oacute;n como materias primas de otra f&aacute;brica. Vamos, que los desechos de una, se convierten en la materia prima de otra.<br />Otro ejemplo de que la puesta en marcha de proyectos basados en redes industriales puede crear ciclos que aprovechen al m&aacute;ximo todos los aportes energ&eacute;ticos y no se limiten a crear un producto y sus desechos de producci&oacute;n..]]></description><pubDate>Sun, 28 Oct 2007 19:05:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Fetish architects</title><link>https://softarchitecture.blogia.com/2007/102802-fetish-architects.php</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://softarchitecture.blogia.com/2007/102802-fetish-architects.php</guid><description><![CDATA[<p align="justify">Last week I went to tha <a href="http://www.mak.at/e/jetzt/f_jetzt.htm" target="_blank">MAK</a> in Vienna to attend a lecture from Frank Gehry.

I have my own opinion of what should be the answer.. But I suppose it would be considered "fetish" if I say that good architecture is the one which can make the people&acute;s life better..

Que significa?</p><p>El aspecto m&aacute;s internacional no se nota por la multitud de tiendas y locales de firmas extranjeras, ni por la gran cantidad de turistas que te encuentras a todas horas y en cuqlquier rinc&oacute;n, ni tampoco por el gran n&uacute;mero de artistas de calle que ocupan las Ramblas.. No..</p><p>La diferencia se nota en partes de la ciudad que hasta hace poco s&oacute;lo los barceloneses conocian pero que ahora empiezan a poblarse de turistas, tiendas, y gente de todo tipo. Me refiero a las nuevas &aacute;reas de remodelaci&oacute;n de la ciudad. En ellas he notado de manera m&aacute;s acentuada el cambio. Y lo he notado en la gente que vive alli. De hecho tiene que ser un gran cambio pasar de vivir en un apartamento de protecci&oacute;n oficial de los anos cincuenta a encontrarse rodeados de rascacielos de lofts, o pasear en el nuevo parque de Nouvel o el de Miralles-Tagliabue ( por cierto ahi van algunas fotos de estos ), o salir a tomar una cerveza entre los rascacielos de Perrault y coger el tranvia para ir de compras al Paseig de Graca.. Estas zonas, antiguamente en las afueras de la ciudad, con pocos medios de comunicaci&oacute;n, se estan convirtiendo poco a poco en los nuevos centros de la&nbsp; ciudad.Por un lado esto est&aacute; muy bien. Los "decisores" ( as&iacute; llamo a promotores inmobiliarios, arquitectos, inversores, pol&iacute;ticos, etc ) han encontrado la f&oacute;rmula que parece agradar a todos. Los arquitectos tienen la ventaja de poder "hacer por fin un poco de arquitectura-experimentaci&oacute;n", los inversores tienen la ventaja de tener la casi total garantia de que est&aacute;n invirtiendo su dinero de forma adecuada, y los pol&iacute;ticos la certeza de poder anadir a su curriculum la renovaci&oacute;n de una parte de ciudad.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Al parecer salen todos ganando. Pero lo que me pregunto es: alguno de estos decisores se ha preguntado si saldr&aacute;n ganando tambi&eacute;n los habitantes? Seguramente se puede opinar que han mejorado su nivel de vida, tienen m&aacute;s servicios y oportunidades que aprovechar, y probablemente al final sea efect&iacute;vamente as&iacute;.. pero lo quem e parece fundamental es no olvidarse nunca que los ciudadanos, la poblaci&oacute;n, es la verdadera destinataria de nuestras intervenciones... </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Quiz&aacute;s partiendo de la gente y no de los proyectos conseguiriamos mejorar los proyectos y no la gente....</p><p>&nbsp;</p>]]></description><pubDate>Sun, 28 Oct 2007 15:09:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Perch&#xE9; un Blog?</title><link>https://softarchitecture.blogia.com/2007/102701-perche-un-blog-.php</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://softarchitecture.blogia.com/2007/102701-perche-un-blog-.php</guid><description><![CDATA[<p>&nbsp;</p><p>Perch&eacute; siamo nel 2007.. </p><p>Perch&eacute; c&acute;&eacute; molta gente che ha cose da dire e non trova spazio.
