In architectural practice and academic research, there is a growing concern about preserving the connectedness with nature on university campuses through biophilic design and maximising its rich impacts on students. Since place attachment (PA) and quality of campus life (QCL) are important factors affecting students, the current study aims to identify the impact of physical, visual, and auditory connections with nature (biophilic design parameters) on PA (place identity and place dependence) and QCL (self-reported physical health, mental well-being, social health, and academic success). Data from the survey of 378 university students were analysed using Spearman correlation and descriptive statistics. Results demonstrate that physical and visual connection with nature correlates with place dependence and self-reported physical health; additionally, the auditory connection with nature correlates with place identity and self-reported social health. The outcomes of the present study increase our understanding of the importance of biophilic design on campus, and offer practical implications and design suggestions for landscape designers and architects to enhance students' PA and QCL.

OBJETIVOS: Uno de los principales objetivos del Grupo de Investigación Reconocido (GIR) Arte y patrimonio universitario de la Universidad de Salamanca es difundir el conocimiento del patrimonio y la arquitectura universitaria. Actualmente, cuenta con una subvención de la Consejería de Educación de la Junta de Castilla y León (SA029G19) para un proyecto titulado La Universidad en Castilla y León: Patrimonio y sostenibilidad. La pandemia por COVID19 ha provocado cambios en las actividades ligadas al proyecto, en favor de formatos compatibles con los nuevos escenarios. Si en principio se comenzó a trabajar sobre una exposición física sobre el Campus Unamuno, finalmente se recondujo a planteamientos exclusivamente virtuales.
RESULTADOS: Siendo un trabajo de investigación y de divulgación científica, el peso reposa eminentemente sobre lo visual, incorporando textos breves, acompañados por cuadros o tablas, con los datos esenciales de cada edificio. La amplia colección de imágenes que se ofrecen (197) son en gran parte fotografías de Vicente Sierra Puparelli, de gran calidad técnica y valores plásticos, que acaban convirtiéndose en una exposición dentro de una exposición. Otro bloque lo constituyen los planos o alzados de los proyectos arquitectónicos de la veintena de edificios del campus, así como de la planificación urbanística del conjunto. Muchos proceden de la Oficina Técnica de la Universidad de Salamanca y el resto de los archivos personales de algunos de los arquitectos implicados en las obras. El complemento dinámico lo aporta el video de tres minutos con que se inicia la exposición, también volcado en YouTube (https://youtu.be/OlXV-VG61ho).

This research explores the formation, location characteristics, and interplay between public Ethiopian university campuses and their hosting city. Part two focuses on the role of the In-between spaces in shaping interactions. This study categorizes these spaces by analyzing their spatial characteristics and utilization patterns. The analysis focuses on spatial elements such as urban streets, entrances, and boundary walls, emphasizing their roles in campus identity and connectivity. As a result, six types of In-between spaces were identified, and their utilization patterns were categorized as interactive and non-interactive for their opportunities and challenges in design-making decisions on Security-oriented campuses.

Fonksiyonel, ekolojik ve estetik amaçlar doğrultusunda gerçekleştirilen bitkisel tasarım uygulamaları gün geçtikçe kentleşme baskısı altında grileşen kentlerde insan-doğa arasındaki etkileşimin yeniden kurulmasına yardımcı olur. İyi bir peyzaj tasarımının en temel unsurunu oluşturan bitkisel tasarımın insanların zaman geçirdiği tüm alanlarda önemli bir rolü vardır. Başarılı ve sürdürülebilir bir bitkisel tasarım oluşturulabilmesi için bölgenin ekolojik koşullarına uygun bitki taksonlarının seçilmesinin yanı sıra bitkisel tasarım ilkelerinin (çeşitlilik, vurgu, tekrar, denge vb.) de göz önünde bulundurulması gerekmektedir. Bitkilerin kendilerinden beklenen faydaları (ekolojik, estetik, psikolojik vb.) ortaya koyabilmeleri için sahip oldukları özelliklerin (form, renk, ölçü, doku, çizgi vb.) tasarımda doğru kullanılması önem arz etmektedir. İslam bahçe sanatının günümüz örneklerini temsil eden cami bahçeleri bu kültürün korunması ve yaşatılması açısından büyük öneme sahip mekânlardır....

This paper explores different degrees and forms of publicness and their relationship with the spatial configuration of a university campus. Based on a literature review, the concept of 'publicness' is developed to describe the dimensions of 'interaction,' 'discovery,' and 'display' on campus. The area selected for the case study is De Uithof campus of Utrecht University, located outside the urban fabric in a green environment. Spatial configuration analysis reveals that the two public spaces most-often used by students have high global and local integration scores as well as medium visibility scores. This promises much potential for the production of publicness in both spaces, whereas student surveys revealed some rather substantial differences in publicness between them. Acknowledging detailed differences in terms of physical design, functional facilities, and social composition enables an explanation for why the Academic Hospital Utrecht space lives up more the potential of publicness production than the Heidelberglaan space.

This paper is part of a wider ongoing research project, which intends to contribute with new and comprehensive knowledge about school buildings in Portugal for secondary and middle education under the framework of educational urbanism. With a specific focus on the spatial distribution of secondary schools in the city of Lisbon, it investigates the relationships between the evolution of the city's urban layout and the functional transformations that occurred along the 20th century. The purpose is to understand how far these schools are incorporated into the urban grid and to explore their potential to perform as a neighbourhood-based institution.

Apenas 12 años después de haber sido puesta en operaciones la Ciudad de Universitaria (cu) del Pedregal, la universidad, el país y el mundo habían cambiado. La década de 1960 devino en una época de cambios y representó
el inicio de una nueva etapa en los aspectos más diversos, incluyendo el urbanismo y la arquitectura. No obstante, el campus universitario que había sido concebido de forma integral como una nueva ciudad al sur de la Ciudad de México, no solamente como un campus escolar, yacía inconcluso, el proyecto habitacional de 1952 no había sido aún materializado. Esta es la historia de lo que se pensó pero no se construyó que podría ser el campus completo que incluyera vivienda al interior de la Ciudad Universitaria.

The most important spatial element which helps understanding and defining a place are the type of plants which give a certain character or symbol. Although it is difficult to reveal the perception of space and plant interactions by humans, it can be achieved through experimental studies. In this study, visual impressions of the users in evaluating the perception of plants with spaces were determined by experimental study and the survey technique was used. The study was conducted in Istanbul, and over 500 people including 100 primary school students, 100 secondary school students, 100 high school students, 100 university students and 100 university graduates participated in the survey. In this study, 28 plants, which are frequently seen and familiar with outdoor areas, were used. In this study, it was aimed to reveal the opinions about which of these plants were associated with the mosque courtyard and which characteristic of the plants were emphasized. Gender and educational level ...

Understanding the movements of people is essential for the design and management of urban areas. This article presents a novel approach to understanding the asymmetry in route choice (i.e., the degree to which people choose different walking routes for their outbound and return journeys). The study utilizes a large volume of traces of individual routes, captured using a smartphone application. The routes are aggregated to a regular grid, and matrix statistics are developed to estimate the aggregate degree of route asymmetry for different types of route (shortest, longest, weekday, weekend, etc.). The results suggest that people change their route approximately 15% of the time. Although this varied little when observing trips made at the weekend or on a weekday, people taking journeys that deviated substantially from the shortest possible path were 6 percentage points less likely to change their routes than those taking journeys that were closest to the shortest path (14 and 20% asym...

This paper explores the academic-architectural discussions, the architectural drawings and the technical solutions when designing and building the structuralist Dragvoll University Campus in Trondheim, which was first inaugurated in 1978 as a kind of university town with indoor streets and bridges (Larsen et al. 1971). The purpose of the paper is to investigate 1970s Dragvoll as a cognitive-material and social-material milieu, where scholars, architects and other key persons received, transformed and produced meaning and knowledge about the university campus and its activities, communications and structures. Discussing the above purpose, I will use and develop the key concept of “milieu of ideas” (Ambjörnsson 1983), as I explore it as an “interface of meaning and materiality” (Gumbrecht 2004). How did scholars, architects and other key persons in 1970s Dragvoll envision and incorporate ideas of academic knowledge production and meaningful relations in research and teaching in and by means of the discussions, the drawings and the building site with its many things? What are these ideas of meaning and knowledge, which they expressed verbally and architecturally? How did they shape 1970s Dragvoll as a milieu of ideas and interface of meaning and materiality? In order to limit the paper, I will identify and investigate some key cases in the discussions, the drawings and the building site at Dragvoll in the 1970s.

With the rapid development of urbanization and the current global epidemic of covid-19, our urban construction seems to be less connected to the natural world, ecological diversity is decreasing, and the relationship between human beings and nature is gradually weakening. At present, the proposal of a new design concept, biophilic design, has created a way that modern society can return to the essence of human beings. As Biophilia means "love for life and living systems", this design philosophy incorporates the essence of our lives and as a way of design brings nature into the environment in which we live and work. Design stimulates human cognition of nature from all senses, brings nature into the built environment, creates a space with a sense of comfort and well-being, and promotes sustainable development. Diversity of life can be preserved, and the relationship between human beings and nature can be harmonious. However, there are still a series of problems and challenges in the process of biophilic design practice. In this study, the concept and importance of biophilia are discussed, examines the issues and challenges of biophilic design for intimate spaces, expounds on how biophilic design builds the unification of indoor and outdoor spaces and discusses the process of biophilic design Whether privacy is preserved or rediscovered.

Gender and educational level differences were investigated and results revealed that gender and educational levels effected participants' preferences. According to the results, flower bushes were preferred primarily for the mosque courtyard, and rose, pine, tulip, violet and buxus plants were preferred as the first choices respectively.

Il Concept del progetto di riqualificazione architettonica e funzionale del capannone 19 dell’area “Ex Officine Reggiane” da destinare a Tecnopolo per la ricerca industriale, si riassume nella proposizione building within a building. Nulla si infrange e nulla si modifica, della struttura del padiglione esistente, significativa memoria del “passato” e presagio per il “futuro”. Se ne prevede solo la adeguata manutenzione, in quanto la soluzione proposta è volutamente autonoma, in termini strutturali, per evitare ogni interazione con la struttura esistente. La funzionalità e la flessibilità degli spazi sono garantite da una soluzione compositiva particolare, anche in termini di economia dei mezzi tecnici, oltre che espressivi. Per la realizzazione del nuovo organismo, realizzato all’interno della struttura esistente secondo la logica del “parassita architettonico”, è previsto l’utilizzo seriale della struttura grezza di un container industriale standard da 30 piedi (di tipo High Cube per consentire corrette altezze nette interne), impilabile sino a tre livelli. Il modulo base è ampiamente personalizzabile, in termini di soluzioni di tamponamento (opaco, parzialmente o totalmente trasparente) e di finitura interna, con il ricorso a materiali lignei o comunque naturali, non soggetti a degrado in virtù della collocazione protetta all’interno della Buffer Zone. Tale personalizzabilità è attuabile tanto in officina di produzione quanto in tempi successivi, al mutare delle necessità di utilizzo. L’autosufficienza strutturale di ogni modulo (pareti, pavimento, soffitto) ne permette l’attrezzabilità impiantistica indipendente dai livelli superiori o inferiori, con distribuzione tridimensionale delle reti negli spazi interstiziali della Buffer Zone, pertanto completamente ispezionabile. In termini di flessibilità di utilizzo nel tempo, è possibile adeguare la struttura alle esigenze mutevoli di destinazioni così particolari operando nelle tre direzioni canoniche dello “spazio euclideo”. E’ possibile operare complanarmente (cioè in orizzontale lungo l’asse delle x e/o lungo quello delle y) o verticalmente (lungo l’asse delle z) sottraendo e/o aggiungendo elementi modulari o tamponamenti. In virtù della loro autosufficienza energetica, i moduli strutturali e funzionali sono facilmente collegabili o scollegabili agli elementi viciniori, senza perturbare in maniera rilevante le attività lavorative presenti. Tali elementi sono particolarmente adatti per studi, uffici e laboratori “leggeri”. I laboratori “pesanti” sono previsti ovviamente al piano terra, sul lato ovest, in corrispondenza delle superfetazioni presenti.

A conceptual multi-agent model is presented that aims at supporting planners in their decision-making regarding the regeneration of Central Business Districts (CBD). The model focuses on the interaction between the environment consisting of facilities and the decisions of pedestrians regarding their activities and movements within that environment. As a preparatory step for the implementation of the model, the paper includes an explorative case study to reveal particular aspects of the interaction between pedestrians and facilities. Besides an analysis of the stops that people make at facilities during their trips, also the functional linkages occurring between stops are investigated, both in relation to whether or not they are planned and whether or not goods or services are purchased. Finally, these results are discussed in relation to the requirements of the multi-agent model.

The social, residential, recreational, cultural, and sports activities provided within university campuses play a significant role in higher education. In Turkey, numerous universities have been established in the last 20 years, and construction continues within the planning criteria on the designated campuses, parallel to the education provided. Kırklareli University was founded in 2007 with a large campus area outside the city. Since its establishment, the Kayalı Campus has provided many buildings, infrastructure, and environmental construction, dependent on master plan design criteria and other conditions. Priority design principles include separating pedestrian and vehicular traffic, defining building areas functionally, and ensuring accessibility and balance in placing squares and open distribution areas. In this study, the Kayalı Campus, an example of a significant out-of-town campus plan, was evaluated as a case study, and its structural development was observed over time. Firstly, a literature review was presented on university campus design, followed by a design brief on Kırklareli University Campus design project completed in 2009. Satellite images taken from the start of construction to the present day were presented, and the development was evaluated based on the master plan. The change in the transportation and zoning framework defined by the campus plans' regulatory and guiding role was compared with the current construction. Thus, the feedback on the campus plan development process was revealed over a long period with development decisions, management, and budget inputs. This study can be used as a framework for evaluating the development of different campuses and supporting subsequent decision-making processes with advanced land-use analysis.

Since the latter part of 19 th century photography has played a central role in the development of architecture for its persuasive visual impact. But, despite this clear interaction, there is still reluctance from scholars in accepting less rigid approaches to the two disciplines. Indeed, the combination of the subjects, with the necessary rigour, can open up new and effective horizons for architectural history, with a potential influence on the perceived reality: this could gradually establish attention towards less known heritage. In the case we present here, by means of a provocative exhibition on Cambridge's buildings after the Second World War, we have used photography to re-evaluate modern architecture. Cambridge in Concrete. Images from the RIBA British Architectural Library Photographs Collection, was held on the occasion of the University of Cambridge Department of Architecture's Centenary (1912-2012). The cues for our task were contained in the collections of the Royal Institute of British Architects: the photographic archive is the world's biggest holding of architectural images which, since 2012, has been renamed in honour of Robert Elwall (1953-2012), first curator of the collection. As part of the exhibition we published a limited edition catalogue; we have here revisited, combined and enlarged our original essays.

In this paper, I intended to explore the relationship between human psychology and how it influences architecture. Throughout each aspect of architectural revolutions, the concept of architecture is determined by environmental context such as universality, political ideology, and culture. It is controversial to discuss the humane environment on the scale of architectural forms whether it was based on the study of humanities themselves or architectural form and function ideologies.

Contemporary coworking spaces are intended to form communities, offering shared territories to their users. Functionality and comfort prevail, representing a framework for productivity, creativity and the construction of professional networks. Wellbeing has become a stringent necessity in the office, rather than a form of luxury as it was perceived throughout history. Furthermore, it implies the fulfilment of a series of physical, functional and psychological criteria. Biophilic attributes have been recently related to workplace comfort, but studies have not yet specifically analyzed occupants` perception of space in their presence. As a result, the purpose of this paper is to identify whether European coworkers acknowledge the need for biophilic attributes in their workspace or whether they identify biophilia as a positive trait when it is included in the interior ambient. Existing reports evaluate the present-day development of coworking spaces from multiple perspectives, but do n...

Giancarlo De Carlo's centenary had the merit of bringing the younger generations of students and researchers closer to the lesson of an extraordinary interpreter of 20th century architectural culture. An uncomfortable and controversial interpreter who has travelled through the seasons of the second half of the 20th century with tenacity and consistency, opposing every form of architecture distant from the experience and needs of society. In a panorama of studies that up until now has been lacking, two of the most important monographs on De Carlo, capable of fully grasping his complexity and modernity, are by English authors. We interviewed Benedict Zucchi, who approached De Carlo during his studies at the faculty of architecture in Cambridge, and then further enriched his experience with a professional internship at his Milan office. About 30 years later, Zucchi confirms the value of that experience and clarifies De Carlo's affinity with Anglo-Saxon culture, but also the inf...

Residential fellow assistants are responsible for maintaining the safety and welfare of students who reside in a college. Besides, fellow assistants are also in charge of monitoring students’ activities and developing students’ soft skills and leadership. Thus, this study aims to identify the understanding of the roles among fellow assistants and to analyze the relationship between established guidelines with fellow assistants’ comprehension about their responsibilities. The data were collected by distributing questionnaires to the Institut Pembangunan Felow (IPF) of Universiti Teknologi Malaysia Johor Bahru (UTM JB) who were willing to participate. The finding reveals that majority of the respondents have a good understanding of their roles and responsibilities. However, the percentage of respondents who did not fully understand their responsibilities are quite alarming. Thus, suggestions from the respondents in the open-ended questions can be used in the future to further enhance ...

Yorubas in Southwestern Nigeria, have a culture of having provisions for multiple uses-like commercial, crafts, light industrial and so on-in their residential areas. Contrary to the provisions of the master plan on which the design of Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Nigeria, is based, this cultural trait is noticed to be manifesting in the evolving land use pattern in the University's staff quarters. This study examines these manifestations. The approach of the study is identifying buildings that are currently being used for both residential and other uses on the base map of the staff quarters. The map is then subdivided into quadrants of equal sizes and Poisson distribution is applied to investigate the pattern of distribution of these multiple-use buildings in the study area. Investigations revealed that commercial and service activities in the staff quarters are at present arranged such that most families travel less than half a kilometer to purchase basic daily needs like bread, candles and soft drinks. Poisson distribution test reveals that these multiple-use buildings (housing the various commercial/service activities in the staff quarters) tend towards clustering. This is similar to what operates in traditional Yoruba residential quarters ('adugbos'). This research has thus been able to show that the study area is gradually being transformed to conform to Yoruba traditional communities. Recommendations are offered to integrate these findings into land use planning in the study area and in other similar places.

Splicing system, which is an abstraction of operations on DNA molecules, can be modelled mathematically under the framework of formal language theory and informational macromolecules. The recombinant behavior of the set of double-stranded DNA molecules under the influence of restriction enzyme and ligase further lead to the cut and paste phenomenon in splicing system. The theoretical study of splicing language has contributed to a new type of splicing language known as a second order limit language, which is an extension of limit language. Some types of splicing system can produce second order limit language. Y-G splicing system is chosen among other models to model the DNA splicing process as this model preserves the biological traits and presents the transparent behavior of the DNA splicing process. In this paper, the relation between second order limit language with simple splicing and semi-simple splicing system are presented.

What is the right location for a university campus? Universities have a preponderant role in today’s societal models. They have been in the core of development — economic, social, sustainable, inter alia — and their role within urban context has changed in order to respond to the university mission — that nowadays includes of civic engagement as well as a stronger participation in economies, through the development of startups and innovation ecosystems. This paper relies on the premise that, even in a post-pandemic world, the Campus is still a window to the world, it can shape the perception people have of the University, can be used as a branding asset and, most of all, impacts the lives of everyone living, learning, and working there. The Campus is a very powerful tool, one that universities worldwide have been using as a way of positioning themselves, of attracting students and faculty, and also creating synergies and relationships with companies. It shapes the relationships crea...

Fonksiyonel, ekolojik ve estetik amaçlar doğrultusunda gerçekleştirilen bitkisel tasarım uygulamaları gün geçtikçe kentleşme baskısı altında grileşen kentlerde insan-doğa arasındaki etkileşimin yeniden kurulmasına yardımcı olur. İyi bir peyzaj tasarımının en temel unsurunu oluşturan bitkisel tasarımın insanların zaman geçirdiği tüm alanlarda önemli bir rolü vardır. Başarılı ve sürdürülebilir bir bitkisel tasarım oluşturulabilmesi için bölgenin ekolojik koşullarına uygun bitki taksonlarının seçilmesinin yanı sıra bitkisel tasarım ilkelerinin (çeşitlilik, vurgu, tekrar, denge vb.) de göz önünde bulundurulması gerekmektedir. Bitkilerin kendilerinden beklenen faydaları (ekolojik, estetik, psikolojik vb.) ortaya koyabilmeleri için sahip oldukları özelliklerin (form, renk, ölçü, doku, çizgi vb.) tasarımda doğru kullanılması önem arz etmektedir. İslam bahçe sanatının günümüz örneklerini temsil eden cami bahçeleri bu kültürün korunması ve yaşatılması açısından büyük öneme sahip mekânlardır. Camilerin sahip olduğu sosyal ve kamusal yönlerin yeniden kazandırılabilmesi açısından cami yakın çevresinin peyzaj tasarımı ve dolayısı ile bitkisel tasarımı oldukça önemlidir. Bu çalışma kapsamında Ahmet Erdoğan Cami peyzaj tasarım alanında başarılı ve sürdürülebilir bir bitkisel tasarım gerçekleştirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bitkisel tasarımda tercih edilen bitki taksonları ve bu taksonların; familyaları, yaşam formları, yaprak durumları ve sayıları paylaşılmıştır. Bu bitkilerin bitkisel tasarım kapsamında kullanım amaçları irdelenmiş ve değerlendirmeler yapılmıştır.

This paper is part of a wider ongoing research project, which intends to contribute with new and comprehensive knowledge about school buildings in Portugal for secondary and middle education under the framework of educational urbanism. With a specific focus on the spatial distribution of secondary schools in the city of Lisbon, it investigates the relationships between the evolution of the city's urban layout and the functional transformations that occurred along the 20th century. The purpose is to understand how far these schools are incorporated into the urban grid and to explore their potential to perform as a neighbourhood-based institution.

Designing campus environments integrates the efforts of architects, planners, landscape personnel, and administrators. At a symposium on preserving a quality environment, the concepts of planning, building, managing, preserving and questions such as: How can we plan buildings that can be readily adapted to future needs? What is the value of campus planning? What kinds of planning are most likely to be beneficial? and many more, were addressed in formal and informal presentations. Papers included: "Preserving a Quality Environment for Learning" (John Corbally) which outlines the importance of curricular discipline. "Building the University District" (Paul Reinert) examines the relationship between the university and community. "Providing an Ambience for Excellence" (Scott Girard) suggests that environmental spaces are needed to create a supportive climate. "Respecting and Managing a Campus Master Plan" (Thomas Kepple) profiles the role of physical appearance in the college selection process. "Comprehensive Planning for Unpredictable Changes" (Manfred Hegger) analyzes the complexity of improving campuses years after their creation. "Campus Ecology: the College Environment, Learning and Development" (James Banning) examines the impact on students of the environment and efforts to include them in its design. "Growth and Development of the Campus" (Paul Turner) argues for master campus-growth plans. "Milieu Management in College Residence Design and Operation" (Charles Schroeder) contends that students deserve involvement, influence, and investment in building processes. "Laboratory Flexibility" (Karl Obrink) explores the role of flexibility in effective laboratory building design. "Economics of Amenities" (Robert McNulty) probes the political, social, and economic influences on campus aesthetics. "Participatory Campus Planning" (Jerry Finrow) supports community participation in planning and inspects the impact of the physical environment on student participation. (TEJ)

The article looks at the famous axis known as “La Castellana” (The Castilian's Mall) in Madrid, as a place that represents power in the Spanish capital, choosing to re-propose, forty years after its planning, the well-known intervention by Rafael Moneo as one of the key moments in the creation of this exceptional urban statement. The layout, the relationship with the context, the representative nature of the brick wall, even the materials and building strategies used, are re-interpreted in line with a particular interpretation of the monumental urban axis.

La idea de una Ciudad Universitaria en Nuevo León se contempló desde el origen de la propia Universidad Autónoma de Nuevo León en 1933, sin llegar a resultado alguno. Entre 1941 y 1943 el ideal se retomó, sin embargo no se comenzó a planear sino hasta 1950, para inaugurarse finalmente en 1958. Los años de retraso obligaron a sus escuelas y facultades a peregrinar entre viejas casonas en el centro de la ciudad de Monterrey, espacios que resultaban inadecuados para una formación profesional moderna, pero que no obstante abonaron a la construcción de una comunidad universitaria. El presente artículo explora la planificación de la que fue considerada en su tiempo la segunda Ciudad Universitaria de México, con especial enfoque en la construcción e inauguración de los dos primeros edificios para facultades y lo que ello significó para sus respectivas comunidades estudiantiles, así como los procesos de apropiación durante el primer año de actividad del campus.

Pengurusan penyelenggaraan yang cekap amat diperlukan untuk menjalankan kerja-kerja penyelenggaraan pada bangunan kolej-kolej kediaman disetiap universiti. Bagi sebuah universiti kemudahan kolej kediaman adalah penting untuk penginapan dan keselesaan pelajar yang tinggal jauh dari universiti. Persekitaran kolej kediaman yang selesa dapat membantu pelajar menjalankan pengajian dengan selesa. Oleh itu kolej kediaman ini perlulah diurus dengan sebaik mungkin bagi menjamin kemudahan yang disediakan dapat berfungsi dengan baik untuk jangkamasa yang panjang. Kolej kediaman ini adalah milik universiti yang dikatakan tidak diselenggara dengan sempurna. Oleh itu objektif utama kajian ini ialah untuk mendedahkan serta memberi gambaran sebenar mengenai perlaksanaan penyelenggaraan yang diamalkan oleh pengurusan universiti. Penekanan adalah ditumpukan dari aspek guna tenaga, iaitu pekerja yang terlibat secara langsung dengan proses penyelenggaraan iaitu pihak pengurusan sebagai perancang dan pe...

This paper considers the Obafemi Awolowo University campus, Ile-Ife, as a treasure trove of modern architecture – not only for its architectural significance but also for its palimpsest of meanings. Located in the tropical forests of southwestern Nigeria, on a tabula rasa removed from city life and designed by a Bauhaus alumnus on an aid mission from the State of Israel, the campus presents a unique spectacle, offering itself as a modernist city built into the natural forest landscape with hills in the background. It employs the forms, materials, and technologies of the Modern Movement, stretching them to the limits of creativity. Yet the design differs from the popular colonial Modernist architecture in its adoption of form following climate and cultural sensitivity. Postcolonial in both chronology and concept, the architecture carried meaning for the university as an institution in an African setting, and for its patrons as leaders of the Western region, where it was viewed as a sign of progress, development, a political tool, and an expression of ideology. Deconstructing the architecture and these layers of meaning reveals the aesthetic, historic, and social values and show that modern architecture does not have to be acultural to be significant.

Sebagai sebuah Negara yang menyokong penuh usaha kelestarian pembangunan, isu kelestarian persekitaran telah dimasukkan selaras dengan pembangunan ekonomi dalam perancangan Jangka Panjang Malaysia melalui “Third Outline Perspective Plan 2001-2010”. Kelestarian pembangunan dalam pendidikan atau Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) merupakan salah satu cadangan kelestarian pembangunan yang telah dicadangkan oleh Malaysia. Hal ini menyebabkan institusi pendidikan negara, khususnya institusi pendidikan tinggi mula menjalankan usaha dalam transisi ke arah pembangunan kampus lestari. Kebanyakan institusi pengajian tinggi di Malaysia mula mengambil langkah menghasilkan garis panduan rekabentuk kampus yang lebih khusus dan menjadikan rekabentuk pembangunan kampus lestari sebagai tema dan prinsip yang utama dalam garis panduan tersebut. Tujuan utama kajian ini dijalankan adalah untuk menghasilkan sebuah kerangka pembangunan kampus lestari bagi kolej komuniti yang akan digunapakai ole...

This paper focuses on the urban condition of university precincts, aiming at exploring their vitality potential, i.e. the capacity to generate urban activities and transactions. The role and contribution of the urban morphology is explored, based on a comparative analysis between two realities: Curitiba, Brazil and Lisbon, Portugal through two case studies: Universidade Federal do Paraná, in Brazil and Cidade Universitária de Lisboa, in Portugal. The two cities present similarities in features such as dimension of the region area, and campus relevance. The analysis is developed based on a morphological description, obtained through the methodological use of space syntax tools, and complemented by in loco observations. It attempts to quantify measures such as integration and visibility, crossing this information with the direct observation. The final aim of this paper is to explore the impact of the campus morphological features on the ability to generate urban vitality.

Lyda Caldas fue pionera, desde mediados de la década de 1950, en la enseñanza y la práctica profesional del diseño del paisaje en Colombia. El diseño de paisaje realizado para el campus Meléndez, de la Universidad del Valle, en Cali, Colombia (1966-1968), es su obra más destacada, tanto por la extensión del proyecto como por la posibilidad que tuvo de llevar a cabo su visión de la disciplina. Se hicieron una caracterización y una valoración de las estrategias de diseño en el campus, mediante una investigación de tipo cualitativo; también, mediante un proceso metodológico que incluyó la recopilación de información planimétrica, fotográfica, testimonial y documental asociada a los diseños originales. El proyecto del campus Meléndez muestra la influencia de los aportes conceptuales y disciplinares del diseño moderno del paisaje, expresados por Trieb (1992), así como el desarrollo de un lenguaje propio, derivado de una adecuación a las condiciones naturales y culturales del sitio.
