PORTLAND : 

BIOPHILIC URBANISM

“Given its proximity to nature, Portland is unlike any place in the world.” -Kengo Kuma

课程介绍

While the world’s emerging cities are addressing explosions of population growth, infrastructural demands and resource pressures, the previously established and existing cities are undergoing similar pressures however at different rates. Cities throughout the US are adapting to shifting economies and competition of balancing life style with growth to attract populations and maintain significance. Additionally, as the environmental concerns of the world are made apparent, the urgency to protect and appreciate nature is considered as an attractive resource to couple with growth.

The term "biophilia" was first used by Erich Fromm to describe "the connections that human beings subconsciously seek with the rest of life.". The biophilia hypothesis suggests that, in spite of an ever increasingly urbanized world, humankind is undetachable from the natural environment, and that 5000 year-entities like cities can’t simply replace millions of years of intrinsic relation between man and nature.

According to the Biophilic Cities Project, founded by Dr.Tim Beatley (UVA), “biophilic cities value residents innate connection and access to nature through abundant opportunities to enjoy the multisensory aspects of nature by protecting and promoting nature within the city.”

Portland was included in the Biophilic Cities Network in March 2017.

课程目的

PORTLAND: BIOPHILIC URBANISM

This cluster aims to dissect an internationally-recognized “biophilic city”, Portland, by analyzing why and how it reached such a status, and by trying to foresee its future challenges.

This cluster will focus on the city phenomena and how it can be affected by its proximity to nature. The complex reality of a city cannot be defined by just a handful of parameters, but rather by the interaction between many interconnected agents (us among them) and their relationship with their surroundings. Similarly, a biophilic city cannot be simply defined as a city with abundant green: it is necessary to understand how nature actually influences all the layers that conform the city: networks, infrastructure, program, economy, energy, climate, architecture, people...

Portland is unique in its relationship with nature in the sense that a very specific culture has emerged from it. This makes Portland a perfect opportunity to measure the tangible and intangible relationships that occur when a city and nature fuse into a holistic system. It is the intent of this workshop to track Portland’s relationship with nature throughout history, understand how the city has been able to maintain the balance between development and nature and propose interventions for new prototypes that align with these patterns. Through studying moments of infrastructure and open spaces, the final project will connect to mapped patterns and suggest a new typology at the architectural scale.
