Living in the American style: an analysis of House Beautiful magazine, 1935-1955Smith, Elizabeth A. January 1900 (has links)
Master of Architecture / Department of Architecture / Richard L. Hoag / The years of World War II mark a time of significant sociological and cultural
change. In the United States, new technologies were introduced, and family structure
and family economics changed. These changes were reflected in the popular media,
including housing design publications. This thesis examines the design of the American
house from 1935 to 1955 as presented in House Beautiful, originally The House
Beautiful and first published in 1896, and how it changed during this twenty-year period.
Seven themes were used to organize and describe change during this period. These
themes are: 1) family structure and economics, 2) technology, 3) construction, 4)
automobile, 5) site and spatial relationships, 6) status, and 7) privacy. Changes in
presentation of the house in House Beautiful are shown by comparing and contrasting
feature house articles across the twenty-year study period.
The focus audience of House Beautiful magazine was what the publishers of
House Beautiful characterized as the average American, while in fact the designs were
not for the masses. Rather, the magazine catered to the ideal image of the average
American. Trends discussed in relation to changes in house design include the
following: family stability and security, privacy, home-ownership, transportation,
suburban development, the process of Americanization, quality of life, and household
efficiency.

A Modern Craftsman RevivalRader, Eugene M 01 January 2015 (has links)
Introducing concepts of Craftsman kit construction to the interior, as well as modern technology to lessen the cost of handcrafted details, opens the possibility to new methods of modular design in which interior units are configured around structural skeletons and central base points that provide supply lines to residential units. One example is Dutch design firm Minale-Maeda’s Keystones, a 3D printed connector that holds together any necessary components, like furniture. These keystones can be printed at home and save time and the need to obtain anything but essential components (website). The design firm works to create an “ongoing awareness of the possibilities of both mass-production and skilled craftsmanship” (L’arco Baleno, 2014). Another interesting example is Dutch design brand Fraaiheid’s Minimal Waste Table, which is created from one piece of laminated plywood with a CNC milling machine which makes for extremely minimal waste (Williamson, 2013). These examples of automation require a craftsman’s hand and mind to create the concept but introduce a modern approach to reducing waste, time and cost.

A Comparative Study of Climate Based Design of Building EnclosuresMcGlohn, Emily, McGlohn, Emily January 2012 (has links)
This thesis attempts to determine if misconception about vapor retarders and air barrier systems affects building enclosure design and construction. Literature on this subject is continually evolving and often contradictory, supporting confusion. A survey of designers and builders representing four climate zones within the United States was done. Respondents disclosed where they learned about building enclosures and shared how clear or confusing they think the resources are on this subject and also weighed in on a few basic principles about enclosure design. Results show that most building professionals learn about enclosures through experience or a colleague. The internet is the first written resource they use when questions arise. The most significant misconceptions identified are that in some cases vapor retarder placement does not follow accepted building science or code requirements and that a portion of respondents only consider the air barrier system the vertical surfaces of an enclosure.

Hållbar byggnad med hänsyn tilltrafikbuller Utformning av ett bostadshus i ett trafikerat planområde i Örebro / Sustainable buildingconsidering traffic noise - Designing of a residential building in a hightrafficked area in ÖrebroJabur, Ibrahim, Nassralla, Majkel January 2014 (has links)
De flesta av Sveriges kommuner har ett mål där de strävar efter att bygga ett hållbart samhälle, vilket innebär att man utnyttjar den befintliga infrastrukturen. Målet med detta är att dra nytta av de obebyggda områdena i stadsbilden genom att bygga nytt. Eftersom de tysta sidorna av byggnaderna ska ligga på en ljudnivå under 45 dB(A) har det här examensarbetet behandlat de möjliga lösningar som kan tillämpas vid bullerdämpning. En platsinventering har utförts där de olika förutsättningarna har studerats, och där resultaten av studierna har granskats med syfte till att planera en vision. Nyckelord: Bullerdämpning, bostadsutformning, platsinventering / Most Swedish municipalities have a goal which they strive to build a sustainable society, which involves the use of the infrastructure. The aim of this is to take advantage of the undeveloped areas of the urban landscape by building new buildings. Since the quiet sides of the buildings shall be at a noise level below 45dB(A), this diploma work addressed the possible solutions that can be applied in noise attenuation. A site survey has been performed there the different conditions have been studied, where the results of the studies have been reviewed in order to plan a vision. Keywords : Noise attenuation, residential design, site survey

An Embodying Architecture: A Response to Toni Morrison's BelovedRobinson, Candace V 01 January 2010 (has links) (PDF)
To embody is to give a tangible or concrete form to an abstract concept. The use of the term Embodying Architecture notes a desire for an architectural structure that materially supports individuals concept of the way that they want to operate in the word. It is also notes that architectural space does not currently support this. Those individuals farthest away from the modes of cultural production are the least represented spatially. These occupants are therefore left in the position of being trapped in a space that denies them their desired way of being.
Numerous critical theorist have noted the ways that architecture and urban design disenfranchise people, Beatriz Colomina, Sexuality and Space, Adrienne Rich, Politics of Location, Kim Dovey, Framing Places. More important perhaps, are writings by theorist such as Neil Leach and Julia Kristeva that connect space with a human need for articulation.
This design project takes as its site Toni Morrison’s novel Beloved. The text is precisely about the space of disenfranchisement and the tasks of actualizing yourself when there seems to be no space in which to do so. Figurative and literal space are seen as interchangeable. In response to the novel, a house is designed for the mother and daughter characters that provides a physical space for them to both connect and forge their separate identities.

Flexibilitet i bostäder / Flexibility in HousingBerggården, Lizette January 2016 (has links)
I dagsläget har samhällsutvecklingen en hög takt vilket innebär ständiga förändringar i omvärlden. Bostäder är något som bland annat förändras i takt med samhällsutvecklingen. I och med utvecklingen behövs planlösningar som är enkla att förändra. För att åstadkomma detta kan projektörer beakta framtida möjligheter för förändringar i planlösningar under projekteringsskedet. I arbetet har flexibilitet i planlösningar hos bostäder studerats. Flexibilitet innebär kortfattat att förändringar i planlösningar ska kunna göras enkelt och utan någon större kostnad. Fokus har varit på planlösningar i bostäder från två tidsperioder, därav miljonprogrammet (Bostadsbyggande i Sverige år 1965-1975) och nutid (år 2005-2015). Arbetet beskriver om typen av planlösning påverkar flexibiliteten, om flexibilitet är förändrat över tiden, varför flexibilitet i bostäder behövs och vad god flexibilitet i planlösningar ger möjlighet till. Lagstiftning om bostadsutformning har studerats för att förstå vad som styrt bostadsutformningen under respektive tidsperiod. En viktig skillnad mellan lagstiftningarna är att man gått från normkrav till funktionskrav. Det har även studerats om människans boendeförhållanden i bostaden från 1960-talet och framåt för att förstå bostadsutvecklingen. Arbetet är baserat på en kvalitativ metod där fakta främst insamlats från publicerade böcker som lästs textkritiskt. En analys av planlösningar från miljonprogrammet och nutiden har gjorts. Metoden blev framgångsrik genom att bra kriterier gjordes innan analysen som kunde indikera på om planlösningarna hade god flexibilitet eller inte. Analysen av planlösningarna från respektive period gjordes för att undersöka om flexibilitet är förändrat över tiden. I analysen jämfördes öppna och slutna planlösningar för att studera om planlösningstypen påverkar flexibiliteten, resultatet av arbetet tyder på att planlösningstypen påverkar flexibiliteten. Slutna planlösningar representerar miljonprogrammets tid och öppna planlösningar representerar nutid. / The development of Swedish society today is happening fast. With this comes that the surrounding enviroment of residental area is facing constant changes. The recidences change with the same speed as the social development. As a result floorplans of recidences have to be easy to change. To achieve easy transformable floorplans planners should pay attention to the possibility of transforming during the design stage. In this work flexible floorplans of residences have been studied. Flexible floorplans mean that changes can be made easily to the floorplan and at a low cost. The focus of this work have been to look at residential floorplans from two different periods. The first period is the time of the "million programme" (residential building programme during year 1965-1975 in Sweden) and the second period is the present time (year 2005-2015). The work describes why flexible floorplans are needed, which opportunities the flexibility gives, if flexibility is time-related or unchanged over time and if an open floorplan or closed floorplan affects the flexibility. Legislation regarding residential design has been studied to understand which rules have controlled the floorplannings during the different times. One essential difference between legislation and rules from the time periods is that in the first period, the law set the standard requirements and nowadays it sets functional requirements. The human way of life in the housing has been studied from the 1960´s until today to understand the requirements of housing development. The work is based on a qualitative method where facts mainly have been collected from published books that have been read critically. An analysis of floorplans from the "millione programme" and the present has been performed. The method has been successful due to having clear criteria set before the analysis to indicate if the floorplan had good flexibility or not. The analysis of the floorplans was made for each time period to examine if flexibility is time-related or unchanged over time. In the analysis open and closed floorplans were compared to see if the type of plan affects the flexibility. Closed floorplans represent the "million programme" period and open floorplans represent the present.

Réduction du ruissellement par l’augmentation de surfaces perméables : évaluation de 2 scénarios d’aménagement d’un ensemble résidentiel à LavalFernet, Catherine 07 1900 (has links)
L’implantation répandue de nouveaux quartiers résidentiels sur le territoire de la périphérie urbaine est en partie responsable de la baisse du couvert végétal et de l’augmentation des surfaces imperméables à grande échelle. Les villes sont maintenant aux prises avec une augmentation constante de la production de ruissellement qu'elles doivent gérer au moyen d’un vaste réseau d’égouts et de canalisations.
Des données sur les impacts de ces modèles de quartier résidentiel nous révèlent que cette forme d’habitat provoque la dégradation des milieux naturels et aquatiques.
La présente étude vise à mettre à l’épreuve la stratégie d’aménagement de l’Open space design en comparant l’effet de trois situations d’aménagement d’ensembles résidentiels sur le coefficient de ruissellement pondéré (Cp). Les trois situations étudiées sont 1 : le développement actuel tel que conçu par le promoteur, 2 : un scénario de quartier visant la préservation des cours d’eau existants ainsi qu’une réduction des lots et des surfaces imperméables et 3 : un quartier avec des types d’habitation plus denses.
Les coefficients pondérés obtenus sont respectivement de 0,50 pour le quartier actuel, de 0,40 pour le scénario 1 et de 0,34 pour le scénario 2. Au terme de cet exercice, il apparaît, d’une part, que la densification du bâti, la nature des surfaces et l’organisation spatiale peuvent concourir à diminuer la production de ruissellement d’un quartier. Cette étude permet de situer l’importance de la gestion du ruissellement dans la planification et l’aménagement du territoire. / The widespread introduction of new residential developments in the urban periphery is partly responsible for declining vegetation cover and a large scale increase in impervious surfaces. Cities are now grappling with a constant increase in runoff, which they have to manage through a vast network of sewers and drains.
Data on the impacts of current residential models reveal that this form of development causes the degradation of natural and aquatic environments.
The present study aims to test Open space design strategy by comparing the effect of three development situations on the weighted runoff coefficient (Cw). The three situations are 1: the actual development as conceived by the project’s promoter; 2: development aimed at preserving existing streams, reducing lot sizes and impervious surfaces; and 3: a higher-density cluster development plan.
The weighted coefficients obtained are 0.50 for scenario 1, 0.40 for scenario 2 and 0.34 for scenario 3. As a result, it appears that the density of the structures, the nature of the surfaces and the spatial organization can all contribute to reducing the runoff in a given area. This study underlines the importance of runoff management in planning and land use.
