Charrettes 2010-11 - Central Gateshead: Uncertainty and Desire
Central Gateshead: Uncertainty and Desire is the culmination of a Charrette undertaken by postgraduate students in Architecture (2010/11) from Newcastle University, School of Architecture, Planning and Landscape. The Charrette addressed a strangulated urban space in central Gateshead located in and around three housing blocks and adjacent to the flyover that by passes the Town Centre. It incorporated three distinctive projects designed to draw from the rich experience held by the respective project leaders, (Manuel Tardits of Mikan, Dermot Foley of DFLA and Daniel Mallo & Armelle Tardiveau) the involvement and commitment of whom made this Charrette possible.
La Isleta Participa(tes)
La Isleta Participa(tes) is the result of the course 'European Study Visit' 2009/2010, a module of the MA Urban Design at Newcastle University to which postgraduate students in ruban design and architecture participated. We are grateful for the commitment of the students who engaged in this project both at a theoretical and design level. Their curiosity and ingenuity in operating in an unfamiliar culture is clearly present in the projects. Thanks to all who contributed and in particular Vicente Díaz García, Pablo Ley Bosch, Noémie Laviolle and Manuel Martín).
Parma Book
"The Other Side of Parma" is a short publication presenting the results of students’ urban design and architecture study (2008/09). Guided by the expertise of lecturers Dr. Tim Townshend, Armelle Tardiveau, Daniel Mallo, and Georgia Giannopoulou, students were asked to examine the social demographics of the Italian city of Parma relating to the built environment. They were specifically asked to focus their attentions on the struggling Oltretorrente area, or the other side of Parma.
In response to what the students uncovered in their investigations, in which structured interviews with local residents played a major role, they proposed uniquely transient interventions.
Director of Planning and Urban Design, Dr Tim Townshend comments on the Parma Book, "It's a really great achievement and reflects a huge amount of work from the tutors Armelle Tardiveau, Daniel Mallo and Georgia Giannopoulou, the students involved (drawn from the MA in Urban Design, Bachelor of Architecture and Diploma in Planning and Design Programmes) and PhD student, Carolyn Fahey who lead on the design of the book itself. It will be sent back to all those people who helped us in Parma as a thank you and a physical manifestation of how much we valued their input. I think its provides a great example of cross school inter-disciplinary activity!"
