Four years ago, as we started with the idea of realising a summer academy concerning sustainable building, it was seen as an innovative proposal. In between, some other relevant Technical Colleges such as the ETH, the University of Wuppertal or Stuttgart have also established summer programs about Energy efficiency.
I am glad that the profile of the Summer Academy of the BHT has been more and more accurate along these four years. It is general knowledge that we are going to build energetic high efficient constructions in the near future, and a mere look into technical press is enough to realize about the importance of the subject in current discourse. The main potential, which is offered here, is whether the strategic environment should only combine nature, construction and technical devices, or whether this new way of building implies a further brand-new aesthetic. The Summer Academy is dealing with such questions this year.
The initial event will go into urban and architectural models regarding the background of the expected climate change. It is predicted that Berlin will have similar conditions in 2050 to current Milan and in 2100 similar to current North Spain or Rome. (Prof. W. Endlicher HU Berlin)
A new Climate IBA (International Building Exhibition) is being discussed for the vacant airport of Tempelhof. Consequently, I consider that would end into the complete construction of the site in 10 or 15 years. By that time, building regulations will be developed so far, that the energetic standards for new constructions might be very near to those of passive houses today, or even more advanced. These standards are based on an avoidance strategy, which also makes sense.
On one hand the question is to which extent it affects the city and its houses. As reference we can find the resulting projects of the Columbia Quartier competition. On the other hand, which influence has climate change to the role of the city? What does a Southern European city look like today? How does public space work? How can climate enrich and condition architecture is another question to which the projects on Columbia Quartier tried to find a response.
I would really appreciate your assistance.
Prof. Robert Demel
