Los dibujos de Rafael Leoz sobre vivienda social
En los cerca de quince años de trabajo de Rafael Leoz (1921-1976) desde su notable aparición pública con la recepción del premio de arquitectura de la Bienal de Sao Paulo en 1961 por su incipiente Módulo HELE, hasta su prematuro fallecimiento en 1976, se visibilizan las radicales transformaciones de la profesión de arquitecto y su nueva forma de trabajo. Esto sucede en una década, los sesenta, que en su contexto social, político, económico y cultural favoreció un concepto de ruptura posiblemente latente desde principios de siglo hasta las puertas de lo que se definirá como posmodernidad. Tras la experiencia de la construcción del Poblado Dirigido de Orcasitas, Rafael Leoz decidi...

Resilience and the Cultural Landscape
All over the world, efforts are being made to preserve landscapes facing fundamental change as a consequence of widespread agricultural intensification, land abandonment and urbanisation. The 'cultural landscape' and 'resilience' approaches have, until now, largely been viewed as distinct methods for understanding the effects of these dynamics and the ways in which they might be adapted or managed. This book brings together these two perspectives, providing new insights into the social-ecological resilience of cultural landscapes by coming to terms with, and challenging, the concepts of 'driving forces', 'thresholds', 'adaptive cycles' and 'adaptive management'. By linking these research communities, this book develops a new perspective on landscape changes. Based on firm conceptual contributions and rich case studies from Europe, the Americas and Australia, it will appeal to anyone interested in analysing and managing change in human-shaped environments in the context of sustainability.
Ephemeral Urbanism
"As one of the outcomes of the Ephemeral City Research Project conceived in the Harvard Graduate School of Design with the aim of bringing to light the idea that nonpermanent configurations of the urban landscape are legitimate within the discourse on cities this book describes temporary settlements from all over the world that challenge the illusion of the permanence of the urban landscape. Ephemeral Urbanism invites us to ponder over aspects of material impermanence such as dematerialization and disassembly as an integral part of the designand construction processes of cities. Ranging from the scale of the small temporary infill within the urban, to the scale of the ephemeral mega cities, this book gives an overview of hundreds of cases, analyzing settlements or configurations that are constructed for a limited period of time. Through diagrams, photographs and aerial images, this preliminary survey presents an exploration of ome interesting prototypes of flexible urban planning and design. Texts by Richard Sennett and Ricky Burdett give the appropriate framework to understand the relevance of this book."--Provider.
