title	Local Perception of a Conservation Heritage Area, a Case Study of the Darmo Residential Area, Surabaya, Indonesia
source	ENVISIONING ARCHITECTURE: IMAGE, PERCEPTION AND COMMUNICATION OF HERITAGE [ISBN 978-83-7283-681-6],Lodz University of Technology, 23-26 September 2015, pp.132-141
summary	This paper has argued that interdisciplinary approach is necessary to get better understanding of the problem within a built heritage area. It is found that inhabitants perceived the mixed heritage architecture as their own, an appreciation also expressed toward perception values of building: uniqueness, aesthetic and age. The research has also shown that inhabitants in the Darmo residential area - Surabaya, Indonesia perceived that their area are worth to be conserve due to the function such as the city amenities and attribute of the shady environment. Taken together, these results suggest that a better understanding of inhabitant’s awareness will contribute to the successful conservation program.

title	Industrial Heritage Revitalisation as a Wordplay
source	ENVISIONING ARCHITECTURE: IMAGE, PERCEPTION AND COMMUNICATION OF HERITAGE [ISBN 978-83-7283-681-6],Lodz University of Technology, 23-26 September 2015, pp.39-48
summary	The paper discusses the image of post-industrial city and perception of local values. It reveals the risks of unavoidable commercialisation of built heritage. It also shows that demolition of local industrial heritage may be transformed into cynical business strategy. A case study explains how a positive image of the investment has been created with the superficial reference to the memory of an authentic textile factory, and in a broader sense – to the post-industrial image of the city. In fact, it is an ample example of fabricated, fake post-industrial image – addressed to the na?ve taste of the general public and basing on the authenticity of sensations offered by other preserved factories. As such, it becomes a caricature of the new approach to the issue of cultural heritage. Moreover, it is particularly dangerous –since it badly affects the idea of contemporary heritage conservation.

summary	Through literary review on historical ports from the 1st Opium War to 1949, this paper mainly focuses on the elements and value of modern ports along the Huangpu River from Baoshan to Minhang. These ports with historical events, places and objects are viewed as urban heritage to arise people’s attention to this kind of memory place during the process of urban transformation. Port heritage with unique material relics and immaterial information makes a great contribution to recalling the massive memory and making identity of the port city, which should be preserved definitely.

title	Rethinking Utopia: The Industrial Landscape as a Generator of Urban Change
source	ENVISIONING ARCHITECTURE: IMAGE, PERCEPTION AND COMMUNICATION OF HERITAGE [ISBN 978-83-7283-681-6],Lodz University of Technology, 23-26 September 2015, pp.101-111
summary	The research addresses methods of transforming inactive industrial spaces within urban areas as shown on the case study of the former Sisak Ironworks (a part of the research project Heritage Urbanism _HRZZ 2032) . A high level of integration of mapped elements in the urban fabric of the city was proven, which leads to the conclusion that they form a wholesome identity of an industrial city, the infrastructure itself forming a specific type of spatial relation recognised as an industrial landscape. Systematic transformations of these elements are the key to a successful regeneration of derelict areas of the urban landscape in order for them to become a generator of a new urbanity.

summary	The underlying thesis of the research described in this paper is that imaginative, model-based explorations may help us better understand iconic architectural artefacts, such as cultural heritage projects. In order to systematically consider and study architectural artefacts, it is essential for academics to reach a level of clarity – and potentially even consensus – concerning the domains of architectural design that may be considered relevant and to question - often implicitly – shared conceptions. This paper intends to communicate the results and findings of an in-depth case-based exploration on the basis of ten design artefacts, using a specially developed conceptual framework. Furthermore, the aim was to draw conclusions concerning the benefits and potentials of this approach in the context of heritage-based architectural research in an academic environment.

title	Global Perspectives on Critical Practice: Envisioning Heritage in New Landscapes
source	ENVISIONING ARCHITECTURE: IMAGE, PERCEPTION AND COMMUNICATION OF HERITAGE [ISBN 978-83-7283-681-6],Lodz University of Technology, 23-26 September 2015, pp.319-328
summary	This paper discusses current design and communication imaging techniques in a comparative analysis between three contemporary projects - the first, a new hotel concept in Sardinia, Italy, the second, an urban park in Mumbai, India, and the third, a new housing community in La Prusia, Nicaragua. Starting with an overview discussion problematizing the roots and current state of envisioning heritage, the paper first questions the common oversimplification of envisioning heritage as a strictly aesthetic or stylistic act. Next the paper explores the complex interplay between the design communication methods in each of the three case study projects, situating each in a critical global context. From there, the paper concludes with an expanded discussion of imaging as it relates to design thinking and communication through an examination of the techniques that were employed to graphically communicate each individual project.

title	Animating the Static. Case Study of The Project "Urbanimals" - Enhancing play in the cities through an augmented and interactive environment
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2016.1.691
source	Herneoja, Aulikki; Toni Österlund and Piia Markkanen (eds.), Complexity & Simplicity - Proceedings of the 34th eCAADe Conference - Volume 1, University of Oulu, Oulu, Finland, 22-26 August 2016, pp. 691-700
summary	This article delineates the process of developing the project "Urbanimals" - an interactive installation designed and realised in Bristol, UK, in 2015. As the case study research, it draws attention to the difficulties in designing interactive structures in urban spaces - from an architects' idea to a construction stage. There are four areas that are being investigated: (1) Modelling interactions, (2) Negotiating locations and logistics, (3) Developing hardware and (4) Performing the on-site observations. The project draws from the idea of Smart City (SC) as the concept of the urban environment with a certain level of responsiveness through implementing a technology-driven matter that expands city offer perceivable, but gentle and not hindering way. It highlights the possible applications of projection technology and the utilisation of the 3D modelling software which provides complex tools for creating animations, movements and interactions with future users. The article gives clues how to design more engaging interactions and how to deal with implementing them in public realm.

title	Development of high-definition Virtual Reality for historical architectural and urban digital reconstruction: A case study of Azuchi Castle and Old Castle Town in 1581
source	The next city - New technologies and the future of the built environment [16th International Conference CAAD Futures 2015. Sao Paulo, July 8-10, 2015. Electronic Proceedings/ ISBN 978-85-85783-53-2] Sao Paulo, Brazil, July 8-10, 2015, pp. 207.
summary	This study shows fundamental data for constructing a high-definition VR application under the theme of a three-dimensional visualization to restore past architecture and cities. It is difficult for widespread architectural and urban objects to be rendered in real-time. Thus, in this study, techniques for improving the level of detail (LOD) and representation of natural objects were studied. A digital reconstruction project of Azuchi Castle and old castle town was targeted as a case study. Finally, a VR application with specifications of seven million polygons, texture of 1.87 billion pixels, and 1920 × 1080 screen resolution, was successfully developed that could run on a PC. For the developed VR applications, both qualitative evaluation by experts and quantitative evaluation by end users was performed.

title	Urban Codes: Abstraction and Case-Based Approaches to Algorithmic Design and Implications for the Design of Contemporary Cities
source	The next city - New technologies and the future of the built environment [16th International Conference CAAD Futures 2015. Sao Paulo, July 8-10, 2015. Electronic Proceedings/ ISBN 978-85-85783-53-2] Sao Paulo, Brazil, July 8-10, 2015, pp. 112-123.
summary	This paper reports on a comparative study that evaluates two approaches to support the learning and use of algorithmic design in architecture, and extrapolates from this to consider applications for the algorithmic design of cities. The study explored two methods to reduce the barriers of using programming and potentially improve design performance. The first is the reuse of abstract algorithmic ‘patterns’. The second approach is the reuse of algorithmic solutions from specific design cases (case-based design). Reflecting on this research we outline how our findings discussed in relation to alternate thinking on the use of pattern, might inform a hybrid approach to the algorithmic design of cities.

title	Towards the new Baroque Within the Historic Context of a City
source	ENVISIONING ARCHITECTURE: IMAGE, PERCEPTION AND COMMUNICATION OF HERITAGE [ISBN 978-83-7283-681-6],Lodz University of Technology, 23-26 September 2015, pp.186-198
summary	A new approach to design - Curvilinear forms designed in synthetic digital space - indicates the direction of a new turn in architecture, interest in its structural and environmental aspect. The presented case studies show how curvilinear forms of such architecture coexist with the historic context and how they inscribe in to the existing urban fabric with a complex historical substance. Following the Zeitgeist, the new architecture reconfigures the expression, reception and materiality, as well as uses the context to validate its existence. The features of this new architecture may be referred to the achievements of the Baroque and considered in a wider context of historical changes in the urban fabric.

summary	This paper presents the example of the reconversion of an important tram station from the origins of electricity in Portugal that was still in use until the late 1990’s but became redundant since then. Its significant urban presence and the importance of preserving the memory of the old trams that were still in use some years ago in Lisbon, led to an innovative solution, combining public value and heritage protection. In 2011, the Lisbon City Council agreed to give the building and its site for university use, namely to be transformed into a student’s facility, as a study, leisure, recreational and cultural space of the IST, open 24h a day. This new university building, located just one block away from the traditional IST compound, was called IST Learning Center and extended the notion of campus outside its walls and into the city’s urban fabric.

summary	Over the past decade, ‘smart’ cities have capitalized on new technologies and insights to transform their systems, operations and services. The rationale behind the use of these technologies is that an evidence-based, analytical approach to decision-making will lead to more robust and sustainable outcomes. However, harvesting high-quality data from the dense network of sensors embedded in the urban infrastructure, and combining this data with social network data, poses many challenges. In this paper, we investigate the use of an intelligent middleware – Device Nimbus – to support data capture and analysis techniques to inform urban planning and design. We report results from a ‘Living Campus’ experiment at the University of Melbourne, Australia focused on a public learning space case study. Local perspectives, collected via crowdsourcing, are combined with distributed and heterogeneous environmental sensor data. Our analysis shows that Device Nimbus’ data integration and intelligent modules provide high-quality support for decision-making and planning.

title	Mapping Planned and Emerging Art Places in Singapore through Social Media Feeds
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2016.2.437

summary	This paper presents a methodology to collect and visualize social media data about art, in order to map art locations in cities using geo-localized data, and comparing planning decisions with the actual use of spaces. As various social networks have penetrated into the daily life of people, these become one important and effective data source to understand how people perform 'arts' around the city [Shah, 2015]. The case study for this methodology is Singapore, a vibrant city where art and culture are being promoted in the light of an emerging creative economy. The Singapore government promotes art and creates 'art clusters', such as art districts, galleries, fairs and museums in the city. Additionally, artists, creative entrepreneurs, consumers, and critics seek and explore alternative spaces. Understanding where art and creativity are discussed, broadcasted and consumed in Singapore is a key point to have better insights into art space planning, and study its effects on the city.The paper will try to answer the following research question:Is it possible to discover, through social network data, spaces where art is produced, discussed, and broadcasted to an audience in Singapore? How?

summary	The symbolic construction of the city’s image has two dimensions. One - internal - refers to the image of the city developed and reproduced by its residents. Another - external - is perceived by the people from the outside. In this respect the heritage has a dual role to play: it is the central focus of the visitors activities whilst at the same time being a fundamental element in the construction of local community identity. The above issues are discussed in the context of £ódŸ, which - like many other post-industrial cities - faces the problem how to handle the heritage and to create a new positive image, which is of crucial importance in constant competition for new investments.

doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2015.2.083
source	Martens, B, Wurzer, G, Grasl T, Lorenz, WE and Schaffranek, R (eds.), Real Time - Proceedings of the 33rd eCAADe Conference - Volume 2, Vienna University of Technology, Vienna, Austria, 16-18 September 2015, pp. 83-90
summary	While learning computer-aided modeling techniques, students of architecture should not only gain knowledge on how to model three-dimensional forms, but also how to define and understand the information beneath the shapes. Architectural presentation as an intellectual communication-focused process requires new media to channel information in a contemporary way. These can be text, image, sound, video or a digital model. The integration of augmented reality in teaching computer-aided modeling in architecture school provides more thorough learning experience as it opens new opportunities. The authors present the process of implementing AR technology in architectural education - its theoretical background, the outcome of students' work and technical solutions. They argue that the use of AR interface increases the effectiveness of user-model interaction in comparison to standard mouse-based techniques of three-dimensional manipulation due to the intuitive touch-screen interaction and direct control on the camera.
