12th Vienna Architecture Congress Intelligent Regions Location: Architekturzentrum Wien - Podium Congress: 12 November 2004 - 14 November 2004 Tickets: 1-day ticket: EUR 9 / EUR 6 reduced; 3-day ticket: EUR 22 / EUR 15 reduced For a few years now the architects, the planners, the social scientists and the economists have been focussing with interest on a field of research alongside the metropolises: the region. Several large-scale studies on the most diverse of European regions have been published over the past few years in which well-known architecture studios participated: StadtLand Schweiz, RheinRuhrCity, Costa Iberica and Hiper Catalunia being just a few examples for this development. With all the variations in their emphasis and the problematic issues of location, the studies do have a fair amount in common. They all try to find development strategies for the future on an interdisciplinary and on an international level, they combine demographic and sociological data with issues of infrastructure and economic improvement for the location, to develop sustainable structures and the interaction between metropolitan and rural environments. The 12th Vienna Architecture Congress will attempt to take stock for these new European regionalisations, beginning in Austria with the dynamic area of growth Rheintal and its connection to the StadtLand Schweiz, and Vienna and surroundings (Project Centrope) as a linchpin between East and West Europe. The congress introduces the most prominent research projects from South and Central Europe. Congress moderated by: Bart Lootsma, Architecture theorist, Vienna Simultaneous Translation German/English |
