Workshop 5 _ “Inverted Pascuqan” _ model

Here some pictures of the model:

Workshop 5 _ Urban Place Form _ “Inverted Pascuqan”

This urban typology represents an Utopia.

It is based on the ideal, that  the “Input” to a house can be limited to only two elements.

  1. Consumer goods: Food, toys, luxury goods, daily-life goods.
  2. Clear rainwater

That means, no electricity, no fresh water, no heating and no fresh air is needed from outside.

In a second step, the “Output” is limited to two elements as well:

  1. Clear water, ready to be returned to the earth.
  2. Recycled materials, e.g. usable as building materials.

This utopia will be called “www.Inverted.Pascuqan.net(work)”

Three characteristic and representative elements of the proto urban conditions in Pascuqan are inverted:

  • Walled house  » Courtyard house
  • Waste dump » Waste cycle
  • Water import/export » Local water

But see youself (more explanation will follow)

Workshop 4 _ Outlook

1. New Regulatory Plan Tirana

The old 2017 Plan for the future development of Tirana was recently replaced by the »New Regulatory Plan«

  • This is what the Tirana Government says about it
  • Here is a nice flash presentation of some plans
  • Here a forum thread in skyscrapercity.com, showing many plans, unfortunately in Albanian
  • But this is an english document, describing the plan very thoroughly
  • Olesja even managed to find a Powerpoint presentation describing the regulatory plan and translated it for us! Click Regulatory Plan Powerpoint

This describes quite thoroughly the plan and conditions for the new outer ringroad: Tirana Outer Ring Road
