About The Workshop :

INTRODUCTION

Why 'Living Room'? Why the 'City'? Because space is a living intrinsic needs of all people and the city has become a habitat of less about 60% of the population in the human face of the earth.

BACKGROUND

Let a little time to return to God when there are only four people: Adam, Eve, and Kain Habil. After the first generation of fundamental human divided by gender differences - women and men - the second generation ago split by different professions, which lead to differences in lifestyle, may also lifestyle, and therefore the differences in the way they use space and think of it.

Kain - * * Homo Faber, is a man who worked the land and cultivate gentle nature, the physical world to create a building artificial new. He has the right to all land in the top of the world. Habil - * * Homo Ludens, man is adventurous, a herd of cattle roam. He built a system of relations fission, while, between nature and life. He entitled to all who live in the land. The division of the strange, indeed. Disputes ago, of course, occur. And, as we all know, Kain kill Habil. Curse be on Kain ago. Top of his sin he was expelled of land, for life.

If history Kain Habil and views in the framework architecture, we can see the relationship between nomadism * * * settlement * and ambiguous in one up the fundamental symbolic space. Believed that the settler * *, people living, is building: houses, cities, world. With Therefore: the architect. * * While nomads, the roamer is not stopped go, the wilderness and the open spaces, and is considered as: anti-architect. Not the architect.

Habil but dead. And Kain, the architect, to be condemned anti-architect. Then what is' home '?

Architecture is always born from the need for a 'space live ', * a * space of staying, not a space of * going * - two experiences different spatial: spaces in the caves with the lands of the terbajak,
spaces that are dug from the earth, and the tents of moving earth, without leaving the impression that survive long.

But indeed, the relationship between architecture and * * or anti-nomadism architecture can not simply be put as an opposition: architecture or nomadism * *. There are very intense relationships that connect both through the notions of journey * *. It is likely that the nomadism * *, or more precisely 'pengembaraan'lah the birth of architecture, an effort
construction placed on the symbolic landscape.

Imagine the first humans to explore the world and establish the signs for remote temples before, long before the cities. The process does not stop. Humans continue to go, putting the signs on the landscape, and architecture is shown. Go - put the signs - the architecture. And continue
hold. And not very likely, the same people back to places same? Architecture, can never be a place to stay any time, any place to go.

Jump of years afterwards, we still ask: what is' home '?

Currently, people are forced out of the house. Pental-bouncing from one place place to another quickly. Time so throbbing new life. Spaces so vague. We no longer live in it, as it continues to move. Perhaps, we have been so long the 'time', while the house was into a 'transit spaces'. He lost definitifnya limit and become very elastic. We have room to sit in the café-café internet,
sleeping in the streets in the way home and went to the office, receive guests in the lobby-lobby-star hotel, dinner at restaurants that after each.

Fold-fold in the city, transit rooms have been growing, territory-territory in the ongoing changes in time. Even territories itself is also temporary. This is the place where this day is very possible to go beyond the division between the centuries 'Rooms go' and 'living spaces'.

Home, the city also has a very liquid. Spaces take the form of a spontaneous, an archipelago in which the urban 'Living rooms' are islands in a sea of wide formed by 'rooms go'. But all the moves. The islands that move. Also changed. Then - no more 'place', a space bound by things close and intimate. All freelance so things just drift and not we recognize.

And we lost the memory of what the 'houses'. Amnesia.

Then, if we - * * nomad or settler * *?

This workshop is an effort to review the way we place ourselves in space - whether in a living space of time, or in city, or both. Home, in the sense that wujudnya and conventional, can be
so no more effective for the way we live and live at this time. Because , we prefer to use the term 'living room'. Instead connotations for release from home - a * near the landed
* house, and for release from the 'exists'.

City selected as the context because, as mentioned above, approximately 60% of the world's population living in cities (this data is obtained from the survey conducted by Harvard students in the research by Rem Koolhas of mutation). In the city we can read all the phenomena ambiguous space of the living. Was so ambiguous real now. Lose themselves in the middle of urban amnesia, we will meet spaces with the banal and spaces that are defined as spaces is not self-conscious of the city: the memory-memory that oppressed,
rejection, absence control - which have produced a system of empty spaces in which we might just fly.

Therefore, many of which we can asking again. What is 'Live' when it is no longer a 'quiet' or 'silent' and we do not longer bound by the 'place'? What is' the city 'when the other one and in
to 'equal' in the world? What is' memory 'for a city continue to change? Really we need a new definition for a space live in the city? Because, as has been mentioned in the introduction in
above, this discourse of years have past?

In the profession, living space is not a matter for the foreign architect. But he often materialize as a product of one paradigm, values, and habits that is not anymore. Is more a process of 'automatic'. Therefore, a lot of us finally find houses that are 'sequestered', separated from the context, and not speak anything.

May be too far from where the workshop is expected to produce solutions of the problem space to live in the city. But interesting to will see how this is thought to be open. Not there may be alternatives that could be a interesting option for a breakthrough in design.

But with the time constraints - either from the reviewer and the grace remaining until the date of 9 September 2009, showroom space and capacity, then later a reviewer will select 18 proposals, all proposals from the entrance. Each proposal must then be selected in the group
at least 3 people.

Sistematic

Participants must enter a proposal of what they think about 'In Living Space City', at the latest on 17 May 2009. Reviewer will choose a proposal included in the workshop, and will

Participants in the workshop have been selected will meet with the reviewer once every two weeks, starting from the date of May 27-July 29, at the Theater Salihara, 19.00. In each meeting, there is expected to progress ongoing from each participant.

The end result

The end result is expected from the design of a 'living space in the city 'are by each participant in the form of: 4 panel A2 that will explain the concepts and design with a mock scale that can be discussed later. Both the results and end the process, will published by Jong Architects - as the media partner of the entire event, and will be on display in the Theater Salihara on 9
