44. Westfourth Architecture: Adapting
> The apartment building in the center of Bucharest adapts to the historic fabric and to a difficult plot, but also to economical evolutions: it was designed before the crisis, the operation was interrupted for several years, only to restart with a smaller budget but also the requirement to diminish the size of all apartments while dou¬bleing their number, within the same volume and basic plan.

>  The urban villa is placed on a free plot in the middle of a socialist neighbourhood right beyond the inner city ring of Bucharest emphasizes both individuality and variation. All apartments are different and the decorative pannels, all starting from the same interpretated vernacular ornament become parapets or cover the ines¬capable exterior air conditioning units that are cleverly integrated into the wall.

Do not (re)build if you don’t have to. BOGDAN & VAN BROECK: COOP – Reconversion of an old mill

PROJECT & TEXT: BOGDAN & VAN BROECK

PHOTO: BOGDAN & VAN BROECK, Artur Eranosian

Reconversion of an old mill into an interpretation centre and an incubator in Anderlecht, Belgium.

Mayor for 10 minutes

An action within the project „Actopolis. The Art of Action / Bucharest-Sud. Build your own city!”

We asked the inhabitants of the southern part of Bucharest would would they do if they were mayors. Moreover, we invited in the mayor’s office all those people who at least once asked themselves “What can I do for my city?” The mobile office was specially designed to inspire people to make decisions that can transform the city into a city belonging to the people.

House E lies in a peripheric residential neighborhood of the Transylvanian city. Blocks of flats invaded the area in the socialist period and, since 1990, a rapid gentrification alters the modest, yet very decent dwellings in a quite brutal way.
