The House, the Home and the Housing Question

EDITORIAL

ANA TOSTES

Chair of docomomo International

is issue of the docomomo Journal is devoted to the theme of Housing housing in its broadest meaning covering multi-family apartment buildings, single-family houses, pri-vately-funded housing as well as government and institu-tion funded social/public housing.Housing is a central program in contemporary architectural

production. Incorporating civilizing values of 19th century cul-ture, the house arrives in the 20th century at the time notions of private space and domestic comfort come to the fore in Western Culture as values inseparable from the emergence of the family in domestic space: the home. In 1951 Martin Heidegger (18891976), in his Darmstader sprache, Bauen, Wohnen, Denken, relates the word building (bau) with the verb to be and the action of being (bin), to conclude that dwelling is the fundamental trait of being, the mortals living condition. Looking to reframe the sense of construction and to identify the meaning of being, Heideggers criticism is moved by the failure of the so-called rational materialistic solution, and opens the discussion up to the re-evaluation of the design action as a unique, magical and creative action.In the second half of the 19th century, with the Arts and

Crafts movement, a process focused on finding comfort and a sense of intimacy and privacy in the dwelling is begun. Espoused by the vanguard of the early 19th century, housing became a tool of the ideological agenda of the modernity. e analysis of dwelling conditions implies an understanding of the occupation of space: related spaces, uses and functions. Addressing the act of living as a cultural fact, the house re-flects the time and manner of its production. In its internal organization, the house responds to the mode of existence that the environment, culture and civilization suggest. Its de-sign reveals the time and taste of the inhabitants, the familys habits, and it offers many clues about the nature of social re-lations. e rapid changes in domestic architecture that fol-lowed the course of the 19th century have profoundly altered the boundary between public and private space. Following Engels housing question (1872), the idea of a

home for all or, as it has been stated in the 60s, for the great-est number, addresses architecture practice at a political lev-el, becoming to be understood as a determinant social factor.With a new twist, modern homes brought to the debate

themes of public and private life, intimacy, exposure and gen-der. e house, seen from the cell, the module, the system, and expanded across the city, constituted the fundamental issue debated within the architecture of the Modern Movement. ciam discussion forums triggered profound consequences,

both in the organization of the family house unit and of the multi-family housing blocks. e theory of the minimal house, based on the Existenzminimum concept, was present, not only in models for social housing, but also in the bourgeois house program. It was Sigfried Giedion (18881968) who, in 1929, wrote about modern forms of housing showing the houses magic formula for the future: light, air and openness while launching, in the same year, the theme of ciam ii: Minimum Housing.

docomomo acknowledges the major relevance of reflect-ing on Modern Movement heritage, focusing on these main issues: house and housing. As Joan Busquets argues in the course of the 20th century, housing became a science due to the huge efforts of progressive architects and their great in-terest in addressing this issue that had been raised with major political impact by Engels. I wish to thank Josep Maria Montaner and Zaida Muxi

who acted as guest editors for this issue of the Journal. Due to their commitment and research in the field, together with the knowledge of the range of researchers who agreed to share their work, and their analysis and creative interpretation that focused on some key architectural houses or housing com-plexes from Barcelonas innovative experiments to Robin Hood Gardens symbolic destiny, social housing cases from Valencia to Bogot, from Buenos Aires to So Paulo, and from cultural to technical or gender aspects it is possible to ex-tend this debate by reflecting on the link between design and housing, and the house and the home. e challenge of considering sustainability as the urgent

contemporary issue facing momo buildings and neighbor-hoods was reflected in the main docomomo forum discus-sions held during the 13th International docomomo Con-ference in Seoul, South Korea, in September 2014. A result of the discussions was the establishment of the docomomo isc on Sustainability. Apposite to the emerging theme of sustainability, the student workshop that preceded the Seoul conference comprised a design discussion on the future of Sewoon Arcade, the Seoul modern commercial and housing mega-structure recently threatened with destruction. anks to the efforts of many people the demolition has been averted and a new, economically and socially sustainable life is now envisaged for this amazing structure.

13th International docomomo ConferenceExpansion & Conflict

Seoul, Korea, 2014

e 13th International docomomo Confer-ence took place in Seoul, Korea, between 24 and 27 September 2014. Jong Soung Kimm, Chair of the 13th International docomo-mo Conference, explains that after much soul-searching, Expansion and Conflict was agreed as the theme by the organizers, and was presented at the Helsinki conference in 2012.1 Jong Soung stresses that the keyword in the theme is conflict, and that word at one point was put forward as the lead of the catch phrase.2 Not as a pejorative word, conflict was used as a challenge to invoke a critical dialogue about the diasporas of the Modern Movement: how it has extended and taken root in various cultures and generations as well as how there has been conflict, if any, during this process, as explains Tae Woo Kim, Chair of docomomo Korea3.Moreover, as the first International

docomomo conference held in Asia, the 13th International docomomo Conferences call for papers emphasized the necessity of re-measurement of the expansion of the modern ethos within the different context of Asia. Instigated by a geo-political expan-sionist policy, colonial expansion produced violent confrontations and challenged the very cultural and heritage foundation of Asia. As a result, the relevancy of the Modern Movement not as a style but as a way of thinking, a harbinger of contemporary values was tested and fortified. Predictably, modernity in Asia grew and matured through this process of conflict and expansion and intrinsically took on very distinct identities in different regions. To comprehend the variety of Asian Modernisms, besides the usual sub-themes on Education & eory, Urbanism & Landscape, Conservation & Re-Use and Technology, the call for papers integrated a sub-theme on Asia Modernity, in order to map a comparative analysis of each countrys modern roots and major achievements. Ultimately, the conference was about the resilience of the Modern Movement. e opening ceremony was held in the

evening of 24 September at the Ninetree Convention Center, hosted by Tae Woo and Jong Soung Kimm and introduced by

Eui-Sung Yi. Many distinguished guests, docomomo partners representatives uia, unesco, icomos and the Getty Con-servation Institute and docomomo friends attended the ceremony, which included Korean traditional music and dance performances. docomomo International Chair, Ana Tostes, formally opened the 13th International docomomo Conference.e conference itself, between 25 and 27

September, took place in the recently-ren-ovated National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Seoul. e museum is a modern extension and renovation of the old Kimusa Military Hospital, built in 1928 during the Japanese occupation. Following that function, it was used as the Defense Security Command building during the tumultuous early days of democracy in Korea. e occa-sion to preserve its history and infuse it with modern cultural relevance was celebrated and inaugurated by the 13th International do-comomo Conference as its first major event.

About 80 papers were presented at three simultaneous sessions, during three enlight-ening days of discovery that were a huge success. Moreover, it was with great satisfac-tion that docomomo International and do-comomo Korea published the Proceedings of the 13th International docomomo Confer-ence for distribution to all the participants in the first day. e first Conference day was opened with

an inspiring keynote lecture by Jong Soung Kimm about the legacy of Mies van der Rohe with whom he worked during the 60s in modern architecture in Korea. e au-dience had the opportunity to listen to Jong Soung talk about Mies influences on his own practice of architecture in Korea. e day was closed with the keynote lecture by Hu-bert-Jan Henket raising awareness towards to the future of docomomo. e founder of docomomo International recalled that two of the main global problems we are facing today climate change and violent clashes between old cultures and Modernity have their roots in the history of Modernity4, appealing to all to join forces by making use of the lessons from the Modern Movement, contributing to the model where econom-ic growth develops in harmony with the principles of re-use, reduction and recycling; through wise balances between old and new, as well between different cultural regions. Following on from this, Hubert-Jan Henket

and Ana Tostes, called for the creation of a docomomo International Specialist Committee on Sustainability. Docomomo International challenges everyone interested in participating, to send to [email protected] their ideas and suggestions, before 6 January 2015.Fumihiko Maki opened the second day

with a lecture on the theme of the confer-ence through his Investigations on Collective Form, contributing for the debate on the effect of the growth process of the great me-tropolises on the scope of Modern Movement ideas: as Fumihiko Maki argues, searching for new formal concepts in contemporary cities lies in the magnitude of recent change due to the unprecedented rapid and extensive transformations in the physical structure of society, rapid communication methods, technological progress and its impact upon regional cultures: we must see our society as a dynamic field of interrelated forces, a dynamic equilibrium [] which will change in character as time passes (Maki, 1964).5

e docomomo Council Meeting took place in the afternoon. Angola, Israel, Kuwait, Taiwan and ailand were accepted as new docomomo Working Parties and were welcomed to the docomomo family. Egypt, Hong Kong and Macao also became active Working Parties, losing their provisional status. Zara Ferreira was elected as the new General Secretary of docomomo Interna-tional. e Council offered a vote of thanks to Ivan Blasi, in recognition of his work and commitment to docomomo over the last 4 years as General Secretary.e Council approved Lisbon as the venue

of the 14th International docomomo Confer-ence between 6 and 9 September 2016, under the theme: Adaptative Re-Use. e Modern Movement towards the Future. In a break with tradition, the Lisbon conference is being

organized by the International Secretariat, rea-son why the Council stressed the importance of all Working Parties helping docomomo International in this challenging and hard task.e International Specialist Committees

presented their reports and plans of action for the next two years. Changes were made to some of the committees and these are list-ed in the Appendix to this journal. e doco-momo International Specialist Committee on Publications was re-created. e members of Advisory Board remained the same and the new Executive Committee was elected, consisting of Ana Tostes, Zara Ferreira, Lou-ise Noelle and Panayotis Tournikiotis.Hubert-Jan Henket, honorary President

of docomomo International, and Ana Tostes, Chair of docomomo International, proposed amendments to the Eindhoven Statement (1990), focusing on the theme of re-use and sustainability, in order to address docomomos future challenges, namely to formulate new ideas for the future of the built environment based on the past experiences of the Modern Movement. e Council Meeting discussed the proposal and a new Statement, the Eindhoven-Seoul Statement 2014, was unanimously approved as follows:

DOCOMOMO International is a non-profit organization dedicated to the DOcumenta-tion and COnservation of buildings, sites and neighbourhoods of the MOdern MOvement. It aims to:

1. Bring the significance of the architecture of the Modern Movement to the attention of the public, the authorities, the professionals and the educational community.

2. Identify and promote the surveying of the works of the Modern Movement.

3. Promote the conservation and (re)use of buildings and sites of the Modern Movement.

4. Oppose destruction and disfigurement of significant works.

5. Foster and disseminate the development of appropriate techniques and methods of conservation and adaptive (re)use.

6. Attract funding for documentation conser-vation and (re)use

7. Explore and develop new ideas for the future of a sustainable built environment based on the past experiences of the Mod-ern Movement.

e Council acclaimed the Secretariats continued good work in Lisbon. Hubert-Jan Henket thanked the Chair, Ana Tostes, for the extremely hard work carried out over the last two years, stating that the Chair and the General Secretary are the key to docomomo and the Chair successfully managed the moving of the headquarters to Lisbon, under very difficult and challenging circumstances. e second day of the conference closed

with the keynote speech by Mark Sexton concerning the restoration of Crown Hall by Mies van der Rohe, undertaken by his office (Krueck+Sexton Architects), reinforcing the connection between docomomo and architectonic production.On the last day, there was an inspiring

round table, conducted by Hubert-Jan Henket and Jong Soung Kimm. e round table participants included the new Working Parties and Asian Working Parties, in order to discuss sustainability as a keyword for docomomos future. e participants were Angola (Filomena Carvalho), Cambodia (Khun-Neay Khuon), Hong Kong (Koon Wee), Iran (Hadi Naderi), Japan (Yoshiyuki Yamana), Korea (Tae Woo and Eui-Sung Yi), Kuwait (Zahra Ali Baba), Macao (Rui Leo), Taiwan (Remi Wang) and ailand (Waeovi-chian Abhichartvorapan).

Within the scope of the conference and of its Expansion & Conflict theme, the 13th International docomomo Workshop took place in Seoul, Korea, between 19 and 23 September 2014, under the theme Strategies for the Sewoon Arcade.e Sewoon Arcade was built in 1967, by

Kim Swoo-Geun founder of the Space Group at the instigation of President Park to fill an urban gap created by the Japanese colonizing forces in Seoul. is gap was shaped by removing a 50m wide corridor sev-eral kilometres long, within the fabric of the city, to prevent the ravages of fire that were very common in a city where the majority of buildings were of timber. After the end of the war in 1945, this urban gap became a magnet for the thousands of war refugees and the homeless, creating a dense and problem atic informal settlement for a city aspiring for a rebirth. ats when President Park ordered the filling of the gap with this ensemble comprising four mega-structure blocks along the 1 kilometre corridor, that were designed according to the then contemporary notions

of mixed-use urban programming. It was one of Seouls first high-rise developments, featuring some of the citys first elevators. From 1967 to 1977, the Sewoon Arcade was a social and commercial success, desired by the new, emerging working and middle classes. However, with the rapid eco nomic and tech-nological growth of Korea and Seoul, Sewoon Arcade quickly became archaic and lost its use and relevance. After repeated attempts to revitalize this mega-structure, the government had de cided to demolish the Sewoon Arcade and create a green corridor in its footprint. e aim of the workshop was to re-think

alternative futures for the Sewoon Arcade, evaluating its history and its current rele-vance. Being a project based on an idea of multiplicity and simultaneity, with complex layers of histories and meanings, the main proposals included revitalization based on the idea of re-use as the most sustainable route for the future of the building and the city of Seoul and its people.In the meantime, the government reversed

its demolition decision, which represented an

important step for how Seoul could deal with the legacy of urban conservation in the future.e workshop consisted of nine teams

formed by Korean and International PhD and Masters degree students, each of them led by two tutors (a Korean architect and an international tutor). e workshop took place at the Dongdaemun Design Plaza and in the architectural offices of the nine Korean tutors, which facilitated a great international exchange. It included lectures and cultural experiences, such as a temple stay on the first night. For four days, the teams reflected on the Sewoon Arcade and how modern heritage can deal with the citys evolution, sustainability and its social impact. e results can be accessed via the follow-

WfqFc-Zv1cQ9BKyAVKQ docomomo is grateful to all the participants and tutors for attending the 13th International docomomo Workshop with commitment, and invites everyone to join the workshop that will be associated with the 14th Interna-tional docomomo Conference, in Lisbon, in September 2016.

Histoire Matrielle du Bti et Projet de Sauvegarde: Devenir de lArchitecture

Moderne et Contemporaine

Edited by Franz GrafPublisher: Presses Polytechniques

et Universitaires RomandesISBN: 978-2-88074-993-4

Language: FrenchYear: 2014

Modern and contemporary construction emerged as the exercise of architecture as a profession, both in its scope, and in the theo-retical issues it raised. e architectural project, the nearest to

the final and existing project, is defined as a backup, that is to say a conservation project that also suggests a new materiality. e ap-plication of new materials requires a refined knowledge concerning the maintenance, preservation, restoration or even weiter-bauen to implement. e history of the materiality of a building constitutes a funda-mental and primordial aspect, which requires a thorough knowledge of different types of materials, construction sites and construction systems developed in the 20th century. is collection of essays and critical

reflections intends to participate in the recognition of this new discipline that is both the history of materials and preservation planning projects. An active knowledge combined with the practice, research and education in architecture. Based on a unique approach highlighting the construction itself, this reference book requires an expansion on contemporary architectural research as well as a consideration for preserving the quality of the most recent constructions.

Photography & Modern Architecture in Spain 1925-1965

Edited by Iaki BergeraPublisher: Fundacin ICO,

La Fbrica, MadridISBN: 978-84-15691-72-3

Languages: Spanish & EnglishYear: 2014

Photography & Modern Architecture in Spain 1925-1965 presents the reverse side of those historical anthologies of projects & buildings that books and magazines used to create the collective imaginarium of the Spanish modern architectural scene through the years: the side of the photographers that depicted these architectures. is catalogue complements the eponymous exhibition held in Madrid at the ico Foundation from July to September of 2014, and is also an outcome of a sponsored research project led by Iaki Bergera and de-veloped by a team of sixteen researchers from different universities in Spain. e editor, Vc-tor Prez Escolano and Alberto Martn open the book with three essays that underline the void that persists in contemporary historiogra-phy in terms of the photographers role in the construction of Spanish architectural culture, in order to introduce a subsequent anthology of architectural photographs that unearth documents from more than twenty archives. Well-known photographers, such as Francesc Catal-Roca, Joaqun del Palacio/Kindel, or Nicolas Muller, but also lesser-known and even forgotten professionals such as Jess Garca Frriz, Jos Galle Gallego or Cristobal Portillo, are shown in these pages as a collec-tive recognition of their artistic work. is is a document without precedents, which finds a place in the history of Spanish architecture for that delightful partnership represented by the work of architecture and its dissemination through its photographical reproduction.

Mies in Brno. The Tugendhat House

Edited by Iveta ern and Dagmar ernoukov

Publisher: Brno City MuseumISBN: 978-80-86549-23-1

Language: EnglishYear: 2013

Grete and Fritz Tugendhats house was designed in 1928-1929 by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, one of the most distinguished archi-tects of the twentieth century. e house is quite exceptional for its construction, spatial arrangement, interior furnishing and interac-tion with the garden and technical facilities. e importance of this unique work of art for the history of modern architecture was proclaimed in 2001 with its inscription on the unesco World Heritage List. e Tugendhat House was built in muti-

cultural Brno, which played a leading role in European modern architecture in the period between the two world wars. e houses enlightened owners, however, did not long derive pleasure from it. After 1938, when the Tugendhats abandoned Brno ahead of the coming Nazism, the buildings function was transformed in a similar way to the dramatic historical events in the area where it stands. After many decades of indifference, it gained the attention it deserved only after the revolu-tion in 1989.e monograph Mies in Brno. e Tugend-

hat House is the first comprehensive work about the history of this celebrated icon of modern architecture, from its origins up to its renovation and restoration in 2010-2012. It presents not only well-known facts about

the building, but also a range of new informa-tion which has so far not been published. e book loosely follows on from the ambitious publication projects tracing Ludwig Mies van der Rohes work in the USA and in Germany (Mies in America and Mies in Berlin).

Architektur der Sehnsucht. 20 Schweizer Ferienhuser aus dem 20.

Jahrundert

Edited by Reto GadolaPublisher: gta Verlag

ISBN: 978-3-85676-322-0Language: German

Year: 2013

A cottage has always other functions than the housing one: it offers space for dreams, il-lusions, adventure, relaxation and inspiration. Architektur der Sehnsucht presents small recreational buildings, embedded into the most beautiful regions of Switzerland. e resulting 1920-1980 buildings are from the classical modernism, continuing through the run-up to the World War II, the post-war era, and from burgeoning postmodernism. Many of the builders are renowned architects such as Alfred Roth, Lux Guyer, Ernst Gisel or Rudolf Olgiati, but there are also some unknown gems and architectural surprises among the works. Each house is presented with informative and descriptive texts, current photographs and plan drawings. e 6 indepth essays developed by architects, his-torians and art historians, together with the 20 building monographs, offer an unexplored perspective on the architectural history of the 20th century.

Storie di Case. Abitare lItalia del Boom

Edited by Filippo De Pieri, Bruno Bonomo, Gaia Caramellino and Federico Zanfi

Publisher: Donzelli editoreISBN: 978-88-6036-879-9

Language: ItalianYear: 2013

e episodic film, composed of a number of short and apparently disconnected stories, was a particularly common form of expression of the Italian postwar cinema. Introduced at the beginning as a translation of international models, the episodic film quickly reached a broad spectrum of exper-imentations, involving almost all important and lesser known Italian directors from the 1950s to the 1970s. ese movies were usually characterized by unpretentious and light autonomous stories that were connect-ed by a wider general theme. What made these experiments particularly successful and interesting was their narrative method: avoiding the form of a novel, these juxta-posed episodes, often just satirical comments, were able to narrate in an original way bigger contemporary issues, wider critiques of national costumes, and were offering often unusual portraits of the rapidly changing Italian society.Storie di Case. Abitare lItalia del boom, edited by F. De Pieri, B. Bonomo, G. Caramellino, F. Zanfi is, in a kind of way, an episodic film of the history of Italian architecture and cities of the 1950s and 1970s. e book comprises 23 short stories about 23 unknown and appar-ently anonymous buildings, chosen almost casually from the vast urban landscape of three major Italian cities (Rome, Milan, Turin). e research, conducted with accu-racy through archival and oral sources by different authors, aims to investigate, as De Pieri calls it in the introduction, the ordinary landscape of Italian postwar reality. e objects of the historiographic analysis are not

the masterpieces of the residential architec-ture of Albini, Gardella or Moretti, not the vicissitudes of the housing complexes of the national program Ina-Casa, but buildings that have never been part of any institutional his-tory of architecture, houses that have never been mentioned in any city or architectural guides. However, these micro-histories have many common themes. Here it is useful to state just two of them: on one side they all talk about the physical outcomes that Italian mod-ernization left on the city, during its fastest growth; on the other side they describe the taste of modernization that characterized the citys common inhabitant. e urban sprawl of the postwar cities was formed entirely by buildings built by real estate companies, in an endless negotiation with the State, often altering its original master plans: a process that took place outside the jurisdiction and the ideological aspiration of the Italian official architectural culture that provoked debates, polemics and finally ep-ochal disillusionment. But, at the same time, the reality of this historic process, condensed in the buildings that are the subject of this book, reveals the desires and the aspirations of a nation (a collective autobiography, to recall again De Pieri) that created after the war, almost from nothing, its identity and ultimately its innovativeness. e many details that are reported in the essays, togeth-er with a brilliant photographic reportage made by Stefano Graziani, constitute a small encyclopedia of the visual imagining of the Italian economic miracle, which reveals an incredible general belief in modernity of that period, which is today totally lost.is precious collection of details, these numerous small stories, sometimes lack a gen-eral recapitulation. e voluminous evidence gathered by the authors does not always au-tomatically lead to conclusions, especially in understanding the homogeneity or diversity shared by the different case-studies. But as it often happens with an intriguing story, one is always curious to learn more about it.
