Effect

Risks

Risks in Open Architecture

A multitude of architects fear that the opening of the designing process will have a bad influence on the quality of the results. Furthermore the profession if the architect could be limited on the role of the simple coordinator. Indeed the architect is the linking position between the investor, planner and the occupant but the essential part of the design is also in the hands of the processing architecture firm. Another point is the changing of the conventional structures in architecture offices. In other branches of profession, like fashion oder design, where Co-Creating is a fix part of the daily working life, the percentage of permanent employees drops permanently. A development to more and more freelancing and the so called Microtasking is obvious. This structure is no threat for designers but rather a positive aspect for the open innovation precess. But for major projects in arhcitecture it needs a fixed team of people qho know how to communicate with each other.

Platforms

Company Logo OpenArchitectureNetwork
is an online, open-source community dedicated to improving living conditions through innovative and sustainable design. It is the brainchild of Architecture for Humanity and the designers who volunteer with us, and through our local chapters. The platform is open to everyone and it enables the user to upload ideas, designs and plans. These can be seen and reviewed by anyone. In this way, it opens up a worldwide discourse about sustainability and makes the exchange of knowledge easier.
Company Logo innosite
The aim of Innosite is to create and further develop an active innovation environment within the construction industry in Denmark and to promote dialogue across professions and industries. The platform is open for players within and outside the construction industry, allowing property developers and companies to invite tenders for development assignments, share ideas and provide inspiration for new innovation methods.
Company Logo popularc
is a platform, where clients can post projects of (landscape-) architecture, interior design and art. A worldwide community of creatives has acces to these projects and anyone can take part in the competiton. So, the platform serves fot the connection of client and creative. Most projects are just small and exclusively creative tasks, so the intention of the founders is to support creativity aside from the individual profession.

Projects

This was a project of the supermarket firm Spar in South Tyrol.

Discussion

DIALOG IN DER ARCHITEKTUR ZWISCHEN BAUHERR, ARCHITEKT UND NUTZER ALS OFFENER PROZESS. TENDENZ: KONSUMER WIRD AUCH ZUM PRODUZENT. DER PROSUMER ENTSTEHT ALS HYBRIDGESTALT, DIE MITGESTALTET WAS SIE KONSUMIERT.

OPEN ARCHITECTURE IST EIN STETIGER PROZESS. DA ER OFFEN IST, SCHEINT ES SCHWIERIG EINE DEFINITION ZU TREFFEN, DA SIE IN SELBEN MOMENT WIEDER VERALTET SEIN KÖNNTE. WANN IST OPEN ARCHITECTURE SINNVOLL? IST OPEN ARCHITECTURE EINE LÖSUNG FÜR EIN VORHANDES PROBLEM?

WELCHE BEREICHE INNERHALB DER ARCHITEKTUR, MACHEN UNTER DEM BEGRIFF DER OPENNESS ÜBERHAUPT SINN? OPENNESS IST EIN ANDERE BEGRIFF FÜR NEUE ARBEITSTEiLUNG. WIE WIRD NEU AUFGETEILT? OPENNESS MEINT EINE BEREITSTELLUNG VON (MEHR-)WISSEN, WAS ZU EINE GRÖSSEREN WERTSCHÖPFUNG FÜHREN SOLL.

BAUHERR ALS INITIATOR, DER DAS BUDGET UND DAS HONORAR FESTLEGT, SOMIT GIBT ES OHNE BAUHERR UND KONKRETE BAUAUFGABE AUCH KEINE WERTSCHÖPFUNG. EIN WERTSCHÖPFUNGSPROZESS IST KOMPLEX UND INTERDISZIPLINÄR. KOMMUNIKATION ZWISCHEN DEN DISZIPLINEN IST SEHR WICHTIG. KOMPLEXITÄT VERLANGT ZERLEGUNG DES FACHWISSENS IN BEREICHE. STARK GESTEUERTE PROZESSE, DURCHGEFÜHRT VON FACHPLANERN UND EXPERTEN.

OPENNESS SETZT VORAUS: ELEMINIERUNG VON KOMMUNIKATIONSPROBLEMEN. DISKREPANZ ZWISCHEN VERBALER UND PLANSPRACHE. ENTSTEHENDE TRANSAKTIONSKOSTEN DURCH DIE VERMITTLUNG VON INHALTEN ENTLANG DER SCHNITTSTELLE DIESER BEIDEN KOMMUNIKATIONSSYSTEMEN. TRANSAKTIONSKOSTEN ENTSTEHEN.
