• The idea of Permaculture, perceivedby Bill Mollison and David Holmgren startedin the 70s. For his concept of ´permanent agriculture´ Bill was awarded with theAlternative Nobelprice.
• ´The legendaryJapanese farmer and philosopher, MasanobuFukuoka inspiredpermaculture gardening.

•Cultural landscapes - Most of the landscapes with high biodiversity are „rurallandscapes“• Nature conservation becomesmore and more an importantform of land-utilization• On the other hand agricultureis retreating – and in simeregions Nature Conservationreplaces agriculture• Therefore our main objective isto present projects of integratedland utilization and models of a ´learning region´. •http://www.iale.sk/download/kvarda/2008.pdf

The city of Vienna has presently a big chance for creating the city of the future in a partici-patory process. The Institute of Soil Science will start a Permaculture Design Project.

Permaculture - Each of us can
consciously design a lifestyle
which is highly productive,
without causing environmental
damage

•Permaculture is largely a plan for developing resources

TARGET GROUPS• First cycle: community gardens,
permaculture patterns, creatingedible landscape, aquaculture, roof gardens, etc.
• Second cycle: Ellaborate concepts for a network of openspaces, related to themasterplan (see page 7)
• Third cycle: Establishingconcepts for solidarity economyon regenerative systems in thesocial fabric

Students from France, Slovakia, Germany and Serbia joining the Intensive program IPSOIL in 2005

Permaculture is a way of life. It shows howto make the most of our resources bymini-mising waste and maximisingpotential.
Permaculture is possible under any
culture, any climate, by people with any
skills.

Within an ecological design
process a wide range of sciences
are integrated, but in a compre-
hensive way, where every partici-
pant is empowered to join the
project about a particular problem.
The ideal urban form for particular
locale will depend to some extend
on the nature of the energy-supply
options: Higher densities make
most efficient use of district heating

PATTERNS
• A pattern language is a system which
allows its users to create an infinite
variety of those three dimensional
combinations of patterns, which we call
open spaces (roof gardens), buildings
(architecture) and cultural landscapes
• Ecological Design respects and nurturestraditional knowledge of place and localmaterials and technologies

4. PERMACULTURE DESIGN COURSEPermaculture principle – solutions grow from space
A pattern is a general planning
principle, which states a clear
problem that may occur
repeatedly in the environment,
and gives the general features
required by all buildings or plans
which solve this problem.

building in the 7th district in
Vienna (Apollogasse). The
pattern ´pavlac´ –´Pawlatschen´

Three principles of knowledge integration
• verstehen (understanding), knowing the
problems and perceiving the details and
patterns of a place helps for the design
process
• begreifen (conceptualizing) at the second
level is the conceptual model of the real world
• erklären (explaining), the third level is the
causal explanation based on arguments
arranged according to propositional logic.

WORKPROGRAM –Five different phases:
Preparatory work, Kick off, Inventory, IP:
September 13th – 29th., follow up.
PARTNERSHIP – The participants will come
from HU,SI,SK,HR,AT,PT,IS, RS
CONCLUSION – To preserve biodiversity,
landscapes and the quality of air and soils
(Danube Strategy) we will integrate several
disciplines including, ecology, geography,
agriculture, architecture, spatial planning and
ecological gardening.
