Design Commons- Practices, Processes and Crossovers

Editors: Gerhard Bruyns & Stavros Kousoulas

This book directly links the notion of the commons with different design praxes, and explores their social, cultural, and ecological ramifications. It draws out material conditions in four areas of design interest: social design, commons and culture, ecology and transdisciplinary design. As a collection of positions, the diversity of arguments advances the understanding of the commons as both concepts and modes of thinking, and their material translation when contextualised in the domain of design questions. In other words, it moves abstract social science concepts towards concrete design debates. This text appeals to students, researchers and practitioners working on design in architecture, architecture theory, urbanism, and ecology.

African Perspectives - South Africa. City, Society, Politics and Architecture: 7 (Delft School of Design Series on Architecture and Urbanism)

Editors: Gerhard Bruyns & Arie Graafland

This volume of the Delft School of Design series focuses on the South African urban context, seeking to construct a contemporary critical dialogue of current spatial practices in relation to social, political and governance structures. The contributors--academics, urban historians, architects, policy makers--reflect on the possible paths forward. The book is divided into thematic sections: "Other Urbanisms," "Tradition, Culture and Education," "Urban Design, Civic Action and Agency in South Africa" and "Future Perspectives."

De-/Signing the Urban: DSD Series Vol. 3 (Delft School of Design Series on Architecture and Urbanism)

Editors: Patrick Healy & Gerhard Bruyns.

This book represents the fruits of a year-long forum carried out in the Delft School of Design. Gathered from renowned visiting scholars, faculty members and doctoral candidates who contributed to workshops, seminars and lectures, the essays offer insight on urban processes and the aesthetic challenge for contemporary design in relation to image, technology and life sciences. Contributions include discussion on the structure of the network city; the virtual emergence and resilience of contemporary urban place in the context of Beijing; and a study of Nowa Huta, Poland.

Visualizing the Invisible (SpaceLab Book) (SpaceLab Book S.)

Editors: Stephen Read & Camilo Pinilla.

The Urban Machine, in Visualizing the Invisible explores a possible nature of the contemporary urban, drawing on structuralist, post-structuralist and 'organic' philosophy (Whitehead, Gregory Bateson, Lefebvre, Foucault, Bergson, Deleuze, Latour, and others). It also looks at the city itself - in its origins as polis, in its spatial evolution, and in the hybridizing properties of network. 

With contributions from: Patrick Healy, Gerhard Bruyns, Deborah Hauptmann, Stephen Read, and John Law.

The Social and the Spatial, Urban Models as Morphologies for a ‘Lived’ Approach to Planning. 

Author: Gerhard Bruyns.

https://doi.org/10.31182/cubic.2018.1.003

How and in what manner has the social been instrumental in formulating planning policies, and does Hong Kong ascribe to any social concept that facilitates its current spatial planning framework? The legacy of the social in planning originally came to fruition within the Chicago School of Social Sciences during the early 1920s. Since then, the understanding of the social and how planning responds to the social has been wide and varied. This paper examines the social’s application in spatial notions in addition to its context within Hong Kong. At its core this argument outlines the consequences of a social notion within planning and the spatial modes of recourse. Issues of scaling are brought into question when addressing planning as well as economic focus, in both the local as well as regional governance levels, which further emphasises the dynamic proxies of social and spatial factors for territorial planning. Having neither of these, the argument then highlights the realities of economic asymmetries in the disempowerment of a local populous through land speculation and housing shortages.

Commoning As Differentiated Publicness

Issue Editors: Heidi Sohn | Stavros Kousoulas | Gerhard Bruyns

https://doi.org/10.7480/footprint.9.1.895

Contemporary commoning practices do not constitute a mere alternative, but instead comprise a qualitative threshold: a moment of critical differentiation. As such, they call out for the development of a set of renewed methodological, analytical and synthetic tools and devices that are better equipped to understand the in-between as a ‘thirding’: as a form of differentiated publicness. The editorial introduction offers a platform of negotiation, which far from disregarding the already established approaches to the thematic in question, aims at expanding their scope, complementing them with non-dialectical readings. By presenting non-hierarchical understandings of urban practices, as well as fostering the intersection of different trajectories and discourses, the introduction to this issue strives to provide a fertile ground for the encounter of the multidimensional and relational potentials of contemporary commoning practices.
