Home
is an ambiguous concept and it cannot be taken for
grantea. The common association between domestic space
and home is contentious and, therefore, it is an
interesting subject of study. There have been a number
of reversals of the meaning and uses of terms in recent
cerituries; for example, the common use of "home" as an
euphemism for "house" such as the real estate industries
use of "home for sale". In principle, a person can
purchase a house but cannot buy a home! Similarly,
architects can design houses but not homes. A house may
be unirihabited temporarily, or abandoned, but a home
has a experiential dimension at one or more geographical
scales-generally, from a housing unit to a country-as
well as over time.
The concepts- of house and home
transcend geographical areas, cultural norms, linguistic
connotations, religious doctrines and temporal
boundaries: They are fundamental human concepts which
are grounded in sets of relationships that order and
define the status of individuals in relation to society
at large. Historical research of interpretations of home
plus recent demographic trends and technological
innovations indicate that the multidimensional nature of
home ought to be examined in precise contexts using
integrative and historical research methads. This
subject is complex and it warrants long-term
commitment. | | |

cultures. The focus of the symposium is culture-specific
issues of the home environment.

This book is outcome of the international
academic research studies presented in the workshop
organised by IAPS-CSBE ‘ Culture And Space In The Built
Environment Network’ under the umbrella of the IAPS 16:
Metropolis 21st Century: Cities, Social Life &
Sustainable Development held in July, 2000, in Paris,
France. This workshop was the second step towards a
series of international meetings, which will be held by
the Network with the objective of bringing together
various experiences from different countries and
cultures.
The Twentieth Century is marked as the century
of the urban transition. Large cities of the world have
experienced a fundamental social, cultural and economic
transformation in recent decades. Especially, in
developing countries ongoing migration process from
rural to urban areas and increasing concentration of
people in big cities have accelerated socio-cultural and
spatial differentiation and diversity. This process has
also affected continuity and development trends in
urban-housing environment and quality of life. The
Purpose of the workshop was, therefore, to open up a
discussion for explaining the socio-cultural and spatial
diversity and complexity, based on selected theoretical
and applied research/case studies in various scales of
urban environment. The focus of the discussion was :
“Continuity and development trends in housing
environment: What are the contradiction among
continuity, change, development, sustainability,
globalisation, individualisation, anonymity,
identity?” |

This book contains the
papers presented at the joint Symposium of IAPS-CSBE Network and
HBRC. The purpose of the symposium was to open up discussion and
debate amongst international scholars in order to more fully
understand socio-cultural and spatial diversity in rapidly changing
housing environments.
Designing the appropriate home, and even more challenging the
appropriate residential environment, has been and will continue to
be a prime objective of designers, planners, and housing specialists
all over the world. The design of the dwelling unit, the grouping of
those units, the vehicular and pedestrian circulation patterns, near
home open spaces, and the distribution of non-residential uses, are
all decisions that shape the residential environment. Attempting to
make sure it will be socio-culturally appropriate makes this task
harder; it raises questions like appropriate for what, appropriate
for whom, and how can we measure this appropriateness?..."

TITLE: CULTURE,
SPACE and TIME: Traditional Environments. 2006
During the 20th century, accelerating
developments in construction, transportion and
information technologies have made it possible
to create environments almost anywhere on the
planet which are no longer a product of locally
available resources nor a response to local
climatic conditions. Perhaps more critically
still, the intimate interrelationship between
built environments and the cultural values of
those who build and inhabit them have been
fractured.
This
special issue of Open House International is
based on a selection of papers from the
'Traditional Environments-Amasya, Turkey'
symposium complemented by several others. Here
we focus on a number of key questions: What is a
traditional environment? How do we define and
conceptualise tradition and what are the
processes whereby places and activities cease to
be regarded as traditional? What are the most
effective ways of studying traditional
environments? How are values embodied in the
built environment and how significant is the
built environment in transmitting cultural
values? What criteria are appropriate when
deciding what to preserve in traditional places?
Can sensitive approaches to renewal and
upgrading lead to a consolidation of valued
traditions? The 12 papers in this volume are
structured in the following way: theory, case
studies, preservation projects and finally
theoretical speculations about the
future. |
