Tangible space: centre for animal assisted therapy.Verwey, Andri 10 September 2014 (has links)
This document is submitted in partial fulfilment for the degree:
Master of Architecture [Professional] at the University of the Witwatersrand,
Johannesburg, South Africa, in the year 2013. / In the Centre for Animal Assisted
Therapy, animals act as a therapeutic
intervention to improve the well-being
of therapy patients. The main medical
success of this mode of therapy
lies within the tactile experience
of touch. This thesis is about
discovering an architecture that acts
as a platform for interaction between
humans and domesticated animals.
The human-animal relationship and
the architectural spaces it would
require to enhance the gathering,
are investigated. It explores an
architectural language that is
inclusive, involved and focused on a
worthy spatial perception based on
enhanced tactile experiences.

Johannesburg climate change observatory: scale of temporality: architecture as a mediatorThomson, Alexander 30 April 2015 (has links)
The population of the city of Gauteng is expected to double by 2055 (Landau and Gindrey, 2008),
which in turn is expected to exacerbate the effects of climate change within the city of Johannesburg.
As pressure from the growing population and climate change mounts, existing open space will have to
be assessed and its value will determine its function on a natural, social and economic level.
This thesis explores the distinct spatial condition of the Johannesburg ridge as a contested landscape
of sensitive ecologies and cultures. These remaining fragments of ecological infrastructures within the
city can manifest spaces of encounters and introduce a discussion about climate change and the
future.
This dissertation investigates architecture’s mediating role in the contested landscapes, both physical
and psychological. In terms of the physical landscape, any architectural interventions erected on the
ridge would need to act as a mediator between the sensitive ridge ecology and the temporality of its
diverse multicultural user composition. Design spaces and their proposed uses would need to work
towards promoting a successful balance between different modes of knowledge.
I propose a research institute located on the Melville Koppies West (MKW) ridge that will provide an
interface between science and society that is accessible to the public. For the purpose of this
dissertation I will call the research institute the Johannesburg Climate Change Observatory (JCCO).
By creating a platform where different constituencies can overlap, new meanings can be negotiated
and a cross-pollination of knowledge can thrive. I have studied the contested landscape extensively
and have documented my observations through a series of interviews, photographs, mappings,
sketches and physical models.
The general consensus in the scientific community is that if we do not change the way we think about
climate change by the year 2045 we will reach a point of no return for our planet. The JCCO is
constructed to be dismantled because of the sensitive nature of the site and as a commentary on the
nature of climate change. The intervention then becomes an extension of the site, improving
ecological function and extending the existing sacred landscape. This in turn preserves the evolving
palimpsest that is the Melville Koppies.
As climate change affects communities all over the world the JCCO will become a critical intervention
against entrenched practices that are contributing to climate change. It is a building typology that has
been constructed through understanding the social dimensions of a physical phenomenon in a
particular place, and is one that should be considered everywhere as each intervention of this nature
needs to emerge from a similarly meaningful understanding relevant to the dynamics of different sites.
The MKW presents a unique opportunity to preserve an ancient ecological landscape, to maintain an
active cultural landscape, and at the same time, by respecting both, to create a new space that could
give rise to new ideas and paradigms that in turn will lead to the transformative change required to
address climate change.

The great space between: a service station nexus in the SoutpansbergJames, Alistair 13 July 2016 (has links)
This thesis aims to study the idea of non-place; a point on the line between a beginning and an end.
My site is in the Soutpansberg mountain range in the Limpopo province. There is a rich history of movement in the area, from ancient trade routes, to central African migration, the Voortrekkers, the British ideal of a Great North Road, apartheid homelands and currently, the Zimbabwean diaspora. All of these stages are examples of flux, movement, non-place…
I have aimed to take a history of the area and apply its relevance to a scarred landscape that is bisected by the N1 highway. Perhaps turning a non-place into a place; perhaps just giving a non-place some relevance. By placing a large service station, a market and a place to sleep onto this site, I wish to revive what it has always been: a movement route, a point on the line; and once again bring to the Great North Road, something so general and banal, yet something fundamentally etched with its DNA. A place en route in the great space between.
