Description
Our European cities are on the eve of a new phase of intense compaction within the existing urban fabric. Amsterdam has adopted climate, energy and circularity goals that need to account for these developments.
In the last decade, much attention has been concentrated on the engineerable transitions and missions to mitigate climate change - and anticipate future shortages of essential resources and commodities, advocating the leap towards a more circular economy, clean mobility, all electric etc. This is reflected in the many and diverse ongoing research and innovation projects in Amsterdam.
The New European Bauhaus aims adds the perspectives aesthetics, beauty – and the aspect of humans (and others) who have to live in these cities. If we know how PED’s are possible technically and in terms of governance, what is needed to create built up areas to create liveable and attractive settings? How can attention for the connection between the physical and the social act as a bridge to frame the upcoming densifications of our cities as an opportunity to create both climate-proof and beautiful areas?
With this presentation, we aim to explore the possible potential of the New European Bauhaus in Amsterdam as a way to operate spatial projects as tangible building bricks to secure future social, climate and economic sustainability. In cooperation with the municipality and other stakeholders, we will make a step towards the operationalization of NEB principles as a guidance for research and innovation projects and for policy making and city planning.
