Leon van Schaik AO, LFAIA, RIBA, PhD

Leon van Schaik has studied at the Architectural Association (AA) in London and is Professor of Architecture at the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology (RMIT) where he holds an Innovation Chair in practice based research in design. From his base in Melbourne, he has promoted local and international architectural culture through design practice-based research. Amongst a long list of seminal publications, Professor van Schaik is the author of Mastering Architecture: Becoming a Creative Innovator in Practice (Wiley-Academy, 2005), Design City Melbourne (Wiley-Academy, 2006), Spatial Intelligence (Wiley 2008). A recent publication is Procuring Innovative Architecture co-authored with Geoffrey London and Beth George (Routledge 2010).

The Procuring Innovative Architecture exhibition has been commissioned as part of the Maribor European City of Culture Architecture Program to demonstrate how the pursuit of innovative architecture by cities around the world has played a pivotal role in the capturing of the local culture of those cities. The exhibition proposition is

that when the architecture procured by a city region is creatively engaged in furthering the desires of that citys citizens, those citizens experience the well being that comes from participating in formulating what the city means for its inhabitants. Forward-looking architecture doesnt merely form an unconscious carapace of our civic culture; it helps us to determine new futures for our selves. This is so much better than experiencing change as a victim!

The city regions featured are (in Europe) Slovenia and Styria, The Ticino, Flanders, Barcelona and London; (in Asia) Melbourne, Perth and Kumamoto, Japan; and (in the USA) Los Angeles with reference to East Coast and Mid West exemplars.

The exhibition compares current innovation with recently captured innovative architecture in each of the above city states. The book Procuring Innovative Architecture provides the base for the exhibition, and distinguished architects in each city region provide their views on current innovation in the work of their region in a symposium.

The exhibition exists in two forms: as a real time exhibition in the DESSA Gallery in Ljubljana in October, and as a virtual model of this exhibition at the Venice Architecture Biennale in August.

Both are designed around the DESSA Gallery.

Studio Leaders: Alessio Erioli

School or Institution: Bologna University

Country: Italy

Website:http://www.unibo.it/docenti/alessio.erioli

1. Studio Leader BiographyAlessio Erioli is an Engineer and Senior Researcher at the Universit. di Bologna where he also teaches Architectural Design. He holds a MArch in Biodigital Architecture, PhD in Architectural Engineering, co-founder and coder at Co-de-iT (www.co-de-it.com). He has been an advisor for many Master Thesis in Engineering and Architecture; and has lectured for (amongst others) IaaC (Barcelona), AA Visiting school in Paris, TU Innsbruck, Universidad Iberoamericana (Mexico). His interests gravitate to the orbital that interweaves teaching & design ecologies in Biodigital architecture. His recent interests engage with Agent-Based modeling simulation of Complex Adaptive Systems in architecture coupled with form-finding strategies.

2. School Established in 1088, the University of Bologna is credited as the oldest of the western world. Its history is intertwined with the ones of great people operating

in the fields of science and humanities, making it an unmissable reference point in European culture, maintaining its central position until the period between the world wars, when other countries came to the forefront in teaching and research. Bologna has thus forged relationships with institutions in the most advanced countries to modernise and expand its activity, committing itself to the European dimension which has now led to the new university system.

3. Studio descriptionThe studio will investigate the implications of intelligence as embodied and embedded into the architectural system itself as distributed processes of structured information exchange and its inextricable environmental interrelations. Intelligence tendency is to be ubiquitous and embodied into organisms and their environments alike; in such condition ecology expresses itself in its very core definition of abundance and distribution of resources through information exchanges at all possible scales of complexity.

Such embodiment and embeddedness will be investigated exploiting swarm intelligence (through the propagation of agent-based systems) coupled with multi-scale form-finding processes as a mean to unleash open-ended creativity and a potential range of affects. Such agent-based systems will

co-operate (collaborating or competing) within intensive environmental force-fields and proactively engage the body-mind-environment relations, from the logics of material organization to the reverberations at several system scales.

1. Studio Leader BiographyMatias del Campo and Sandra Manningers focal point is in the implementation of advanced, computational design techniques & the application of computer controlled fabrication methods.

The practice has won numerous competitions and honours such as the Price for Experimental Tendencies in Architecture. Among their best known designs is the Austrian Pavilion for the Shanghai Expo 2010.

Matias del Campo and Sandra Manninger additionally focus on teaching architecture design in such schools as the Dessau Institute of Architecture, and the University of Applied Arts in Vienna.

2. School The Dessau Institute of Architecture is a graduate unit within the Faculty of Architecture and Building Engineering in Anhalt University of Applied Sciences in Dessau, Germany. The institute runs a four semester Masters Program in architecture, which is taught in English. The institute is located partly within the historic Bauhaus building designed by Walter Gropius. As a School of Architecture, DIA took part in the 2006, 2008 and 2010 Beijing Architecture Biennale. The school offers a multitude of academic options, and puts strong emphasis in teaching both theory in balance with computational media and their intelligent architectonic and technological handling.

3. Studio description

Cities, like dreams, are made of desires and fears, even if the thread of their discourse is secret, their rules are absurd, their perspectives deceitful, and everything conceals something else. (Italo Calvino)

Unpossessed places, which are based on human contact with the complex inhuman urban structure. The complexity of form is defined by visual and geometrical characteristic of both interconnected paths and fibrous energy collectors. This is provided by putting together components of various heights, which

connect and interact in a particular ways to create a coherent whole.

An emergent phenomenon arises from having a range of alternative choices of components of various types and sizes, creating both diversity in connectivity and levels among components. This selection depends on both urban geometry and urban flexibility, with system evolution generating connections that cross both modular boundaries and distinct scales, to connect one small component with a much larger structure.

Whilst the lower modular parts of the components define various connected spaces across different levels the upper fibrous sections harvest both energy and natural resources through deformation to environmental pressures.

CONVOLUTED CORROSION

The Convoluted Corrosion project is the future city concept for Maribor, Slovenia. The main idea of the project is to simulate the characteristics of metabolism to continuously subdivide the city into variations of aggregated conditions. These fields are generated with specific urban qualities that can allow and act as an interactive fabric, which is adaptable to change, and expansion.

Studio Leader: Liss C. Werner

School or Institution: D/A - Dessau Institute of ArchitectureAnhalt University of Applied Sciences

Country: Germany

Website: www.dia-architecture.de www.studio-codesintheclouds.comwww.tactile-architecture.com

1. Studio Leader BiographyLiss C. Werner is a Berlin based architect, trained at RMIT and the Bartlett. She holds a teaching and research post for Computational Architecture and Cybernetics at D/A and is guest professor at Carnegie Mellon University, PA. Since 2002 Liss C. Werner has been invited to teach, crit, and lecture at various universities in the UK, Germany, Austria and Ukraine. As architectural researcher she is currently writing her Phd thesis on Architecture + Cybernetics, curated / contributed to several conferences and publications (Digital Week D/A, Design Modelling Symposium UDK Berlin, Scripting the Future - Tongji). As project architect she worked on private residential and urban projects in the UK, Germany and Russia. Liss was awarded the DeVere Urban Design Prize and Peter-Fuld Scholarship, is

a member of the Bartlett Society, AHRA (Architectural Humanities Research Association), American Society of Cybernetics and George N. Pauly Fellow. Currently a publication on the work produced in her studio Codes in the Clouds at D/A is in preparation.

2. School D/A, located at the famous Gropius Bauhaus location, conducts an international Master Course in Architecture run by Prof. Alfred Jacoby. The school has expanded from 10 students in 1999 to now 170 from over 40 countries with international teaching staff and has a large number of exchange partner universities around the globe. D/A took part in various Beijing Architecture Biennales, and projects have been published widely. As laboratory of research D/A has established a promising culture of urban, theoretical and computational architecture of scripting, coding and genealogical taxonomy to arrive at solutions for European and global challenges that support the evolution of architecture as a dynamic system informed by generating new strategies. A strong teaching culture encourages students to explore advanced technology and digital fabrication. Systematic design methods paired with computational thinking adopt design tools that arrive at unforeseen architectural proposals.

3. Studio Description Codes in the Clouds is a research by design studio concerned with the exploration of computation to provoke an architectural vocabulary that allows the architecture of the near future to depart from the 19th century understanding of predetermined form towards an architecture of code, self-organisation and agent-based formations.

PAR.A-rchitecture 2.0 Contingency suggests a systemic, evolutionary rather than formal approach towards developing space and function, and considers Maribors cultural, topographical, economical and tactile development as base for its work. The studio is looking at growth of sublime architecture and the idea of architecture as hierarchical or non-hierarchical, emergent organism. The overriding cybernetic approach requires the studio to work systematically and systemic at the same time. We strongly engage with behavioural and adjunct geometrical principles of natural and synthetic material to establish strategies for architecture of repair and mutation. The architecture found in the studio is architecture of iterations, of a para-architectural quality, in analysis, process and outcome. The project investigates into the difference of cultural and biological evolution processes as PAR.A-rchitecture, as mutation and emergent

systems with neurobiological constraints at the same time. We look to develop interdisciplinary contemporary code-based vision for Maribor 2112. Basis for our work is the historical, economical and demographic development of codes in the city of Maribor on a global and local level paired with computational tools of advanced architectural design. Arriving at progressive architecture that on one hand reflects history and on the other hand suggests the future of Maribor, is the make-up of PAR.A-rchitecture Contingency 2.0.

StigMergic Scape suggests a future conception of space as difference-reality, where the boundary of virtual and physical blends. It describes an argument to construct and rethink architectural spatial logic. Future residential and economic concerns are focused on to define the city scape as generic growth pattern.

2. School The University of Applied Arts Vienna is home to more than 2,000 students, many of whom come from other countries, both within Europe and abroad. The broad spectrum of artistic disciplines, complemented by a large number of scientific subjects, certainly enriches the special atmosphere that prevails at the Angewandte. The Angewandte sees itself as a place for free artistic and academic expression, as a forum for open debate, and as a laboratory for artistic visions, which unfold their potentials in the society of the future. Our goal to remain one of the best art schools in the world is inextricably linked to the consistent effort invested into continually increasing our quality standards, the ongoing renewal of creative potential, and our uncompromising advocacy of artistic and academic freedom.

3. Studio descriptionThe four-week intensive studio reinvents the future relationship between architecture and industrial

object, and explores in emergent digital directions within objects and architectural design. The studio aims at investigating and exploring the systems, processes, technology, digital fabrication techniques in the context of research, culture, practice, and on form itself. The purpose is to develop series of small-scale objects scaleable geometries that will assist in the development of objects of future and architectural forms.

Each piece aims at exploring a new environment using a formal language of fluidity that seamlessly transform object and architecture into a comprehensive environment. The pieces aim to provide a basis for research into patterns and forms in ways previously deemed impossible, with the designs demonstrating the potential to transform from single object into a series of interconnected elements and pavilion form, extending Alessis 20-year parallel explorations in Tea & Coffee projects into new design and micro architecture.

The studio offers architects and designers a place to put forward experimental methods, forms and styles amidst the technological revolution that is reshaping contemporary design and architecture. It is a hybrid, quoting design and architecture as a scale-less field of operation and spatial production. Though some objects are

imbued with functionality and ergonomic considerations, it is about manipulating space and formal integration. The designed environment describes movement in a static material using state-of-the-art methods of design and fabrication. The Alessi Mutants project presents a far-reaching opportunity in developing knowledge and the myriad of architectural processes of Alessi project design. Its aim is to transform our vision of the future with new spatial concepts and bold, visionary forms.

School or Institution: Institute of Architecture TechnologyTUGraz

Country: Austria

Website:www.iat.at

1. Studio Leader BiographyRoger Riewe studied Architecture at the RWTH Aachen, Germany. In 1987 he founded the architectural practice Riegler Riewe in Graz, Austria together with Florian Riegler. Their works have received numerous awards and have been internationally published and presented. Since 2001 Roger Riewe has been professor and head of the Institute for Architecture Technology at Graz University of Technology, Austria.

Marisol Vidal studied Architecture at the ETSAV (Escuela Tcnica Superior de Arquitectura) in Valencia, Spain. After graduating she moved to Graz, where she worked in several offices and as freelance. Since 2003 she has been teaching and researching at the Institute of Architecture Technology with her main focus on the interrelation between construction and design.

Ferdinand Oswald worked as carpenter in Heidelberg and studied architecture at ETSAG in Granada, Spain, at the Agency of Urban Planning in Bern, Switzerland, and graduated at Technical University Dresden, Germany. He has been working at the Institute of Architecture Technology since 2008, intensifying the topic of structure & faade technology in teaching and research.

Alexandra Stingl studied Architecture at Graz University of Technology and Ecole dArchitecture Paris Belleville. In 2000 she founded the architectural practice Stingl-Enge Architects together with Winfried Enge. She has been teaching since 2003 at the Institute of Architecture Technology.

2. School Graz University of Technology pursues top teaching and research in the fields of the engineering sciences and the technical-natural sciences. An integral part of putting together excellent education and training programs is knowing about the needs of society and the economy.

3. Studio Description There is currently a high office vacancy rate in Europe and the trend is increasing. Tearing down and replacing an intact building which might well be good for another 50 years of service simply because

it doesnt fit in with todays market demands is a far remove from sustainable. With this situation in mind new buildings need to be planned so that they can easily and efficiently be transformed from residential to office uses and vice versa, thus stretching their useful operational life. This process of transformation will only be possible and/or cost-effective if the conditions of the new building are suitable. But what are these conditions?

This task was posed to a group of 3rd year students of Architecture at the Technical University Graz by their tutors at the Institute for Architecture Technology. The void at Mlinska Ulica offered the perfect site for the experiment: within walking distance from the city centre and both the train- and bus station and connecting the old-city with areas of future development on both banks of the river.

The students were called on to design one or more buildings for this site, which could be used for either residential or office purposes. Each unit was required to be readily convertible from office to apartment use and vice versa. A plot ratio 2,000 and an open space provision 50% were specified. In order to stimulate experimental approaches no height limitation was set. The result would be a kind of blank, a base line catering equally for the highly specific requirements of residential

units and those of offices and providing a location that is, at least to some extent, thoroughly neutral in terms of use.

1. Studio Leader BiographyUlrika Karlsson is a Visiting Professor in Architecture and the Head of Program at KTH School of Architecture. Karlsson is also principal of servo stockholm.

Jonah Fritzell is a Lecturer in Architecture at the KTH School of Architecture and founding partner of Studio Aah Architecture & Design .

Daniel Norell is a Lecturer in Architecture at the KTH School of Architecture, principal of his own practice in Stockholm and a Senior Lecturer at Chalmers University in Gothenburg.

Einar Rodhe is a Lecturer in Architecture at the KTH School of Architecture and principal of his own practice in Stockholm.

2. SchoolKTH School of Architecture was founded in 1877 and has its current location in Stockholm since 1970. The School of Architecture is one of seven

departments within the School of Architecture and the Built Environment and divides into four operative and executive divisions: Bachelor, Masters, Research and PhD Level, Outreach and Electives. KTH School of Architecture focuses in the fields of Basic and Advanced Design, Sustainable Design, Performative Design, Design Processes, Urban Design, Architecture Technology, Critical Studies and History and Theory of Architecture. The school has a well-equipped workshop, an advanced digital fabrication lab and an architecture library with a large collection of books and journals. In total there are around 600 students in the professional programs.

3. Studio DescriptionThe studio investigates architecture when informed by biotic material and processes related to farming in the urban context of Maribor. If surfaces are defined as boundaries, the studio investigates when the surface gets lax, punctuated or the encapsulation erodes, the surface dissolves into a fuzzy mlange of solid and liquid matter, gaseous elements and space. A productive surface is more than a surface boundaries of matter, it has byproducts emissive in the sense that it produces architectural affect, energy, biotic and abiotic matter, conditoned by its context.

The elusive relationship between the computational

control of surface geometry in architecture, to produce mass and void, architectural interiorities, volumes, apertures and structure, and the surfaces material capacity, as a differentially permeable thickness, that engages with the surrounding atmosphere - moisture levels, substrates, dirt and vegetal matter - involves a shift from the precisely figured toward a more entropic state, occasionally obliterating the discrete identities of its architecture.

We have recently seen an increased interest in food production and urban agriculture, but little has highlighted the implications for the shape and the structure of urban form. This studio seeks to investigate urban agriculture as diverse compounds of nested volumes, mass and void, where a multiplicity of scales and spatial aggregates, allows for a manifold of social, architectural, biotic and abiotic qualities.

The most dominant features in the project are water, vegetation and landscape. All of these features are used to create a strong dreamy ambiance in the project, negotiating between the two opposite notions of the constructed urban landscape and the untouched nature.

Our graduates are known for their general and professionally profiled knowledge and systematic project approach enabling successful employment in various fields of artistic and architectural endeavours from graphic design, scenography, interior design, architectural and urban design to physical planning. FA is a member of EAAE (European Association for Architectural Education).

3. Studio Description Project presents visions of urban development which is determined by new southern ring road of Maribor city. In the future development, road should become the infrastructural zipper that opens numerous opportunities of spatial development. Road is a new form of public space where we are confronted with international flow. Road is endless continuous

flow of people, economy, development and opportunities.

It is already decided that new southern ring road of Maribor will be positioned on the point where the Pohorje massive connects to the bay of lowland Ptuj field. The space simultaneously presents the edge of the town Maribor and touches the Pohorje massive. This is one of the UNIQUE locations in the Maribor city where city meets nature. Despite the fact that new road should divide or even cut this two entities, we plan future development with a road as a zipper that connects city and nature. Road becomes a generator of development, international axis of economical flow. It is in the area of the city and at the same time in the area of the Europe, filled in with international users. This is a point where city Maribor connects to the Europe.

Road is crossing fields and interacting with golf courses and Betnava castle, continuing as dug-in tunnel into Pohorje massive with sequences of viewpoints. Further it is moving on closer to the city, where it attracts urban development marked by skyscrapers. They are new city markers, nodes marking town streets and rhythm of the driver. There are numerous crossings over, above and parallel to the flow that establishes endless connections between left and

right side of the location. At the same time, the ring road joins Pohorje sport centre and skiing resort into one unique entity.

SOUTHINFRASTRUCTURAL ZIPPER

This project presents a vision for future urban development determined by the new southern ring road for the city of Maribor city. The road should act as an infrastructural zipper by opening numerous opportunities for spatial development and provide a new form of public space. The road is envisaged as a portal for an international flow of people, economy and development opportunities.

Currently the plan is for the new southern ring road of Maribor to be positioned on the point where the Pohorje massive connects to the bay of lowland Ptuj field. The area simultaneously connects the edge of Maribor with the Pohorje massive and is one of the unique locations in Maribor where the city meets nature. The current plan proposes that the new road divides or even cuts these entities in two, however, we envisage that the future development as a zipper that connects the city and nature. As a result, the road becomes a generator for development and an international axis of economical flow. It is in the area of the city and, at the same time, it is the a point where the city of Maribor connects to Europe.

The road crosses fields and interacts with golf courses and Betnava castle, continuing as a digged-in tunnel into the Pohorje massive with sequences of viewpoints. As it moves closer to the city, it attracts urban development

3. Studio Description CIPHER SISTEMS are coded and encrypted structures we see in nature as a phenomenon of scale. Their fractal appearance in certain morphologies, diversifying in size, is an intriguing aspect for morphogenetic

design. The reappearing relationship of macro and micro patterns found in different states of physicality in a variety of environments, is leading to an understanding about emergence and the connectivity between systems.

Thus, the MUTATING ARCHITECTURE studio analyses, evaluates and decrypts reoccurring natural patterns and explores possibilities of their application on visionary scenarios in futuristic city context. We develop and reproduce 3-Dimensional systems of selected natural phenomenons and generate an iteration of mutations with both topological and parametric modelling. Generated systems are applied in horizontal and vertical formations in the outcome of urban matrix and architectural body to study the variations, adaptation, connectivities, scale, repetitions and densification strategies for Maribor 2112Ai [Architectural intelligence] 100YC.

1. Studio Leader BiographyKarl Chu, originally from Myanmar is a professor at the School of Architecture, Pratt Institute, Brooklyn, NY. Before then, he was the founding director of the Institute for Genetic Architecture at the GSAPP, Columbia University, NY. He also taught at SCI Arc, Los Angeles in the nineties where he came up with the concept of genetic architecture. He has lectured extensively and has participated in international conferences and exhibitions. He is developing a new ontology of architecture based on the architecture of possible worlds.

2. SchoolPratt Institute is a specialized university with 4500 students in undergraduate and graduate programs in the fine arts, design, fashion, architecture, and information and library science. The School of Architectures mission is to educate the future leaders of the design,

planning and management disciplines in the professional fields of architecture, urban design, city and regional planning, construction and facilities management, environmental management and historic preservation. This effort builds upon a strong context of professional education within an art and design institute that stresses the relationship between intellectual development and creative activity

3. Studio descriptionMaribor, in its current form, is in need of spatial intervention that would re-vitalize its rather stagnant form. It is divided by the train tracks that cut through east to west in the southern part of the city and from the northern end of the city to the southern end in addition to the highway. The only vital area of the city is the centre of the city. The main impetus of the project is to re-configure the overall structure and organization of the city such that it injects vitality and flow into its city-form.

Correspondingly, four areas of the city are targeted: Melje, the old industrial area west of the old city, Studenci, Magdalena, and Tabor on the southern side of the river. The project for Maribor Manifold is designed to generate urban form that would allow for the emergence of a new kind of spatial dynamics. This proposition for a dynamic interweaving of the city-form

hopefully would engender the interfusion of the private sector with the public sector, the commercial with the residential, software industry with service industries, etc. In addition, the form of the city introduces a modern configuration of the labyrinth, one that is vital and alive.

The formal organization of a city implicitly contains conditions of possibility for the spatial dynamics of flow and interaction that are responsible for the behaviour of its inhabitants.

Maribor Manifold is an expression of the schematic logic of the city-form derived from the synthesis of two figures of spatial organization: the labyrinth and the dynamical logic of flow. The configuration space of the city-form of Maribor Manifold is designed with the intention to allow for the multi-layered inter-fusion of both convergent and divergent programs. Devoid of zoning demarcation, the Maribor Manifold is the embodiment and expression of the city as a complex organism.

2. SchoolThe School of Architecture of Princeton University began in 1832 on the belief that architects should have a well-rounded education in liberal studies; approach their profession primarily as an art; understand and appreciate the other arts in relation to architecture; and be taught the science of building construction as a part of their training in design rather than as an end in itself.

The School is committed to the specificity of architectural expertise at the same time that it is open to new forms of practice and collaborations with allied disciplines. From the beginning, the School of Architectures curriculum has always responded to changes in the profession and in architectural education, providing students with courses that reflect contemporary and emerging issues in architecture.

3. Project Intention In an era of environmental extremes and the influx of 70% of the globes population to the major urban settlements, the Maribors 2112 Visionary Ecologies Urban-Stratification Master plan re-examines the Citys current obsolete infrastructure proposing a new interlaced and stratified regenerative system creating urban conditions throughout the city where clean technologies, interactive architecture, and sustainable commerce can reside.

Urban-Stratification is a connective tissue reacting as a threshold between an active transportation hub, Maribor Interactive Centre for the Arts, and technological energy generator that will provide a reformative highway and transportation system for Maribor. The project will introduce over 100 kilometres of additional roadways to serve as a departure point for

this urban intervention as well as embedded piezoelectric harvesting membranes. The embedded membranes will harvest the energy from vibration, weight, and motion, through several means of traffic, including but not limited to trains, vehicles, bicycles and pedestrians; thus, assisting Maribor 2112 to become one of the first Net Zero cities by three main sources of productivity energy systems: piezoelectric, hydro, and thermal.

As the citizens of Maribor, visitors, and cultural critiques meander the city through the Urban-Stratification ecological and interactive promenades, they will be led experience the architecturally icon of the 2112 Maribor Interactive Centre for the Arts. Convening multiple systems of complexities and parallel programmatic systems, the landscape and pathways outline purposeful accidents that change through programmatic shifts and movement.

The Centre will become an opportunity to experience a new sustainable typology of architecture, clean technologies, and design intelligence. Acting as an active iconic architectural infrastructural and cultural piece, Urban-Stratification will be the stage of public relations, social, and digital interactions, which in turn converts the City of Maribor into an urban catalyst that propagates sustainable development

throughout the rest of the city.

The Maribor 2112 Urban-Stratification Master Plan fosters new interactive social urban ecologies to redefine the existing city, not only as the cultural capital of Europe but also as Europes first Net Zero energy city to become the first urban laboratory where architecture intelligence, social interaction, and clean technologies interact simultaneously.

3. Studio descriptionNanotransit city is a speculated forecast of 100 year evolution of Maribor, Slovenia as the European Capital Culture Hub. Equipped with solar, wind and water collection systems -Green technology is integrated within the architectural structural system. By speculating the deep future, the economy of the city is invested in innovation, science and technology to develop as a progressive sustainable city.

The central feature of the project is the new typology created from the bio-assembled cellular process stimulated by bio-

agents in real time data. This algorithmic language creates opportunities of possible future computational response for the architecture to sustain and adapt according to the natural selection of evolution and respond to the rapidly changing environment.

As the city grows to be a gateway for global transit In Europe, the proposed project createsa multilayer of clean tech market which rapidly feeds and transforms Maribor into a hub for new industries. The hyper connectivity through the central transit hub will be a point of exchange of people, information and goods thus creating an interactive environment. Restoring the history of an industrial economy, the city takes on a logistics and food production centre situated by the Drava River. The emphasis will be on food production as a speculated crisis for the near future as the population demands begins to increase globally. Internal agricultural terraces are embedded into the production form where vertical harvesting, farming, and logistics are located.

Exploring the abilities of stem cells, the bio-assembled system will have the ability to behave and differentiate in spatial opportunities where like cells it could selfrenew,

repair and regenerate.

Featuring a biological natural system, this induces a complex network of activities of interaction between the programs and the natural environment to create a paradigm shift.

Nature follows clear rules and laws because efficiency in nature is a question of survival. Evolutionoccurs with the energetic effiency of variation over time, allowing the natural selection of mutation to occur within the city. This process builds from a single cell structure while responding to real time data through the rapid connectivity of transit and the production of food. The speculation of the extreme future for Maribor integrates Nano Technology that spans outwards into a cellular environment forecasted over a 100 year period.

3. Project Intention

What is the breaking point of a city? And what is on the other side of no return?

Aggrenomics seeks to answer these questions through investigating and speculating what Maribor might become as a result of reaching a breaking point. Using the progression of time as a fundamental design element, a narrative is created based on how Maribor responds to an economic breaking point over

the next hundred years.

Resulting from the current European economic crises, the breaking point forces Maribor to change, with the city choosing to turn toward localism by integrated urban agriculture within the city to eventually become self-sufficient. Keeping on the same forward trajectory, Maribor quickly becomes world leaders in agriculture technology.

In order to conceptualise moments in Maribors future, Aggrenomics focuses on Housing; Agriculture and Transport Technology and the relationships between them. The design attempts to find opportunities for intervention and design that appear within this narrative, creating concise, accurate and viable proposals for Maribor leading up to 2112.

The future of Maribor 2112 is a series of Climatic events starting from the disappearance of the snow on the Alps to the rise in the sea level of the Mediterranean sea. Climate change as phenomena has an impact on the functioning of the society putting a pressure on the energy industry leading to advancements in technology and knowledge.

Migration to the City due to its safer north location in Slovenia puts future pressure on the population creating a perfect mix for a flourishing

of the citys tourist economy and a new form of energy generation powered by human kinetic energy and motion.

The more the merrier becomes a slogan for Maribor as it has become a city that survives on the energetic increase in population. Piezoelectric material lay on the slopes of pathways storing kinetic energy transferred by humans and the transport system thrives on an aerial level with hovering technology allowing the surface of the city to be transformed into a series of gradients. These paths become generators of energy as peoples state of mind is influenced by walking as a healthier choice.
