After successful completion of the course, students are able to work independently, problem- and task-related in planning. The methodological and instrumental knowledge already acquired in the basic courses has been deepened, skills in conceptual, strategic, integrated and application-related planning have been acquired. Using a concrete planning area of a district or an urban region as an example, the students became familiar with fields of action in the interaction of politics, decision-makers, planning and the population and independently developed a development concept in groups, including a mission statement and lead projects as well as an implementation strategy. The results are presented in an understandable, comprehensible, graphically and textually appealing way.
Hernals: A district between village and city In Hernals, old village centers meet lively Gründerzeit neighborhoods, busy main roads meet narrow alleys, shopping centers meet recreational areas. Different periods and ideologies of urban development - from dense Gründerzeit block structures to post-war row buildings, residential courtyards of the interwar period to “Streckhöfe” - have left their mark.
Impulses for the existing city The majority of our city of tomorrow has already been built. A strategic approach to the existing stock is therefore of particular importance. Increased demands on living space and its surroundings, the ongoing change in working and production conditions as well as constantly changing mobility behavior are leading to continuous transformation processes. These must be designed sustainably against the background of the climate crisis and increasing numbers of inhabitants. The extension of the U5 in the direction of Hernals will provide additional impulses for the development of the district in the coming years. All of this provides an opportunity to address the question of how these developments can be managed in a quality manner, how old and new can be combined, and how the existing city can be included in transformation processes.
City in climate change Especially in view of the climate crisis and its dramatic consequences, it is important to develop new perspectives for the urban district. The city of Vienna has the vision to be climate neutral by 2040. What consequences does this have for urban planning? What does this mean for Hernals? Since green spaces are underrepresented in the Gründerzeit neighborhoods, questions arise, among others, about the transformation of existing street spaces and the improvement of the microclimate. Furthermore, since especially "hot" and dense neighborhoods like Hernals are often characterized by a relatively low socio-economic status, the question of climate justice and socio-ecological transformation must be in the foreground.
An image for the big pictureThis extraordinary planning task requires extraordinary processes of engagement and development conception. Therefore, this space should be understood as comprehensively as possible in its settlement-structural, functional, historical, economic, ecological and identity-forming aspects. Researching, questioning, curious and unbiased, questions will be formulated and scenarios created in an open process, in order to develop meaningful positions and concepts based on them, which propose a way of dealing with this complex space. The task of Project 2 will be to create an integrated district development concept with a clear focus on aspects of climate protection and climate change adaptation, from which objectives for settlement and business location development, mobility and social cohesion can also be derived. Images must be generated that are capable of renegotiating these interrelationships - ultimately, what is needed is an understanding of the big picture.
A repertoire of qualitative and quantitative methods, techniques and tools are used to relate intuitive and emotional approaches to rational ones and theoretical models. By working with sketches, plans, models, diagrams, texts, photos and films, the urban space is recorded and analysed and, based on this, guiding principles and guiding projects are developed. Based on a joint "layer analysis", the structural-spatial, economic, social, ecological and cultural conditions are examined and presented for the respective subject areas. In developing the guiding principle, it is important to convey an image of the "big picture", to put the essentials in the foreground and to motivate action.The iterative drafting process is supported and accompanied within the framework of intensive workshops and corrections. Additional inputs and discussion contributions from the supervisors and external experts provide inspiration and motivation. Presentations of the (interim) results with feedback and discussion are used to communicate the main ideas and to develop them further.
Spatial planning does not only require the development of problem-oriented solutions, but also the supply of argumentation bases for these solutions. In the early stage of the project, the focus will therefore lie on the development of digital argumentation bases. The necessary technical support is provided by the cooperation of the spatial simulation laboratory (Simlab).
