Theme and participating countries of EUROPAN 3
January 1992- June 1994 (2 years and half)
| Theme: At home in the city, Urbanising
residential areas |
The theme of the third session of Europan is at the intersection of
that proposed for the first competition, which studied the interior
of the home as a function of the evolution of lifestyles; and that
of the second, the reevaluation of the place of habitation on urban
sites under conversion. EUROPAN 3 poses the following questions. In
what way should existing residential districts be developed to make
them compatible with changes in lifestyles - affecting the home, work
and leisure - and the aspirations of the inhabitants of European towns
to live in a multi-faceted citizenship? How can one today, rethink
the relationship between the town's public and private spaces. What
is the status of transition spaces in light of the evolution of the
relationship between intimacy and urbanity?
In a large number of European towns and conurbations, districts
where people live are suffering from spatial, functional and social
uniformity. Management of space and standardised production methods
have led to ruptures which accentuate the polarisations between
the public space and the private space. These do not facilitate
the diversity of lifestyles and living, and are hardly propitious
to the reorganisation of spare-time activities and to the multiple
and communal appropriations of a town's spaces.
The use of communications technology and the fragmentation of urban
spaces modifies the notion of spatial distance and proximity; social
relationships are no longer drawn exclusively from life in the immediate
proximity, or the domestic circle, they have enlarged to the scale
of the town. Many urban facets are brought into play. It is a case
of making possible a variation of sociabilities and cultures, favouring
the establishment in space of innovative practices, treating the
mixity of uses, the home/work relationship, and the ways and means
of creating employment locally. It is also a question of fighting
against nuisances and the feeling of insecurity, of favouring the
quality of life by taking account of ecological values.
The home environment, this forsaken space, must be re-occupied
by the town's decision-makers to become the theme of a European
architectural reflection which places itself in the context of present
social and economic transformation. It concerns the questioning
of the architectural categories: interior/exterior and private/public,
in the face of urban discontinuities. What are the interfaces between
one's living space and the public space? How can one insert mobile
spaces into the town, such as the motor car? How can one organise
and lay out housing, and design proximity without creating an indiscriminate
mix? How can one take into account the demands of communal services
and individual appropriation of exterior spaces? What is the place
of urban art?
