To meet Rotterdam's problem of water supply, De Urbanisten devised the water square: a plaza that functions as a play area, a floating grass field, a theatre, and a place that can accommodate the water that would otherwise flood the streets and inundate basements.
This book is a printed edition of the Special Issue "Urban Water Cycle Modelling and Management" that was published in Water
In the context of recent global political and economic disruption, architecture seems no longer equipped to address the demands of contem- porary society as an isolated discipline. One solution offered in this crisis of relevance is the notion of transdisciplinarity characterised by the hybridisa- tion of distinct disciplines. Transdisciplinarity is the New Order. In ection Volume 3 explores the achievements, limitations and future implications of this transdisciplinary age, weaving together a fragment of the tapestry that is expanded architectural practice. In tracing the trajectory of this New Order, this issue uncovers the matter that binds architecture together in this fragmented, yet hyperconnected epoch. Wir contributions by Forensic Architecture, Lateral Office, Rory Hyde, Breathe Architecture and many more... In ection is a student-run design journal based at the Melbourne School of Design, Melbourne University. Born from a desire to stimulate debate and generate ideas, it advocates the discursive voice of students, academics and practitioners.

生態海綿城市是比喻城市像海綿一樣,遇到有降雨時能夠就地或者就近吸收、存蓄、滲透、凈化雨水,補充地下水、調節水循環;在干旱缺水時有條件將蓄存的水釋放出來,並加以利用。本書收錄了十余個來自國內外設計師設計的有關海綿城市以及景觀設計中的雨水收集及其再利用的項目案例,通過豐富的技術圖紙、實景照片以及詳盡的案例說明加以展示。同時還邀請一些相關景觀設計師,以他們獨特的視角,闡述他們對於海綿城市的理解和設計,從而使讀者全面了解海綿城市建設的重要性及雨水景觀的設計趨勢。

Graphic novel over de ontstaansgeschiedenis van het eerste waterplein van Nederland, dat in Rotterdam werd gerealiseerd.
The book reflects on constitutional balancing from the perspective of fundamental labour rights. It draws on neo-constitutional theories and builds on the assumption that fundamental labour rights, understood as rights aimed at protecting workers during their working life or after retirement, are the normative expression of founding values and can be balanced against equally axiological constitutional principles. The balancing of constitutional labour rights can be conducted by various institutional actors and by applying different techniques. This volume reviews the theoretical debates on judicial balancing and the approaches adopted by the Court of Justice of the European Union and the Eur...
By exploring different approaches to the study of labour law, this book re-evaluates how it is conceived, analysed, and criticized in current legislation and policy. In particular, it assesses whether so-called 'old ways' of thinking about the subject, such as the idea of the labour constitution, developed by Hugo Sinzheimer in the early years of the Weimar Republic, and the principle of collective laissez-faire, elaborated by Otto Kahn-Freund in the 1950s, are in fact outdated. It asks whether, and how, these ideas could be abstracted from the political, economic, and social contexts within which they were developed so that they might still usefully be applied to the study of labour law.
