Zona kufitare në mes dy lagjeve më të mëdha në Qytetin e Prishtinës – Dardanisë dhe

Ulpianës – ku sot ndodhet tregu informal, paraqet një “skaj” me potencial të lart për të shqyrtuar

Planifikim Urban Bllok Urban I Banimit Individual, Blerta Tora

Theses and Dissertations

Tema e marrë për ta shqyrtuar në këtë punim diplome është planifikimi i një blloku urban.Kjo temë është mjaft e rëndësishme pasi që planifikimi i duhur dhe i bazuar në norma dhe standarde europiane mundëson një jetesë më të rehatshme dhe më të sigurtë për qytetarët e atij blloku urban. Arsyeja e zgjedhjes së kësaj temë është sepse konsiderohet si një problem që duhet të trajtohet në një mënyrë të veqantë. Në vazhdimsi në Kosovë e posaqërisht në Prishtinë po ndërtohen shtëpi, blloqe, lagje pa ndonjë planifikim të mirëfillt dhe pa marrë parasysh se ato lagje a kanë ndonjë nevojë …

Shtëpi Banimi B+P+2, Besjana Latifi

Theses and Dissertations

Të sfiduara nga problemet globale, si migrimet fshat-qytet, ndryshimet klimatike etj, e edhe ato lokale të mos vazhdimsisë dhe keq menaxhimit social e urban, shumë nga qytetet Ballkanike e kanë gjetur veten të pa pregatitura për të adresuar këto probleme. Si rrjedhojë, hapësirat në të cilat jetojmë sot i kemi ngulfatur nga elemente të shumta dhe ndërtime të pa planifikuara, pa i ndjekur normativat dhe pa analizuar mundësite që krijon gjendja ekzistuese. Qyteti i Tetovës është poashtu një nga këto qytete. Për pasojë në qytet janë projektuar hapësira me mungesë të ndriqimit, janë projektuar blloqe urbane me mungesë të hapësirave …

Në këtë punim do të trajtohet një restaurim për bllokun urban në qytetin e Kaçanikut.

Qëllimi i këtij restaurimi është zgjidhja e problemeve të kësaj zone urbane, përpjekja e përmirësimit të situatës urbane për të sjellë një dinamikë të re të planifikimit për të balancuar interesat e publike dhe private, dhe po ashtu të siguroj kushte jetese që i përshtaten qytetarëve për të gjitha grupmoshat.

Degradimi urbanistik, tejkalimi i lejeve ndërtimore, ndërtimet pa leje kanë ndikuar në shkatërrimin e arkitekturës e cila është brengë për të gjithë.

Po ashtu janë të shumta problemet e qasjes së personave me nevoja të …


(Mis)Communicating With Geographic Information System Mapping: Part 1--Choosing Units Of Representation, Rodrigo Cantarero, Maria deGuzman, Sarah Taylor, Soo-Young Hong, Jeong-Kyun Choi 2019 University of Nebraska-Lincoln

(Mis)Communicating With Geographic Information System Mapping: Part 1--Choosing Units Of Representation, Rodrigo Cantarero, Maria Deguzman, Sarah Taylor, Soo-Young Hong, Jeong-Kyun Choi

Community and Regional Planning Program: Faculty Scholarly and Creative Activity

Extension professionals are increasingly using geographic information system (GIS) technology to develop and inform programs and services. In this article, we use a mapping exercise to demonstrate how the unit of data can be applied and inadvertently misrepresented in GIS mapping. We contrast the use of counts, percentages, and location quotients with the same data and the resulting divergence in maps. The discussion addresses ideal circumstances for using each unit of data. Overall, the article illustrates the need for Extension professionals to be cognizant of the benefits and limitations of various units of data to avoid miscommunication when using GIS …

The Augmented Drift, Kylie Miller 2019 University of Nebraska-Lincoln

The Augmented Drift, Kylie Miller

Masters in Architecture Program: Theses

This thesis aims to define and understand the role in which technology plays on human perception and its relationship to architecture. This is to critically analyze the changes and manipulations of the body within regards to new technological systems. These are analyzed under the frameworks of body perceptual systems and their levels of engagement. This then allows for experimentation of sensory manipulation to test the body’s responsive and reactionary techniques.

The design of this thesis explores the opportunities in crossing, amplifying, and re-contextualizing the body and senses within the regards of the technological impacts. This is implored through physical prosthetic …

An Intelligent Smart City, Erik Sanchez 2019 Syracuse University

An Intelligent Smart City, Erik Sanchez

Architecture Senior Theses

How intelligent is the typical smart-city design approach? In an era when artificial intelligence and big data promise to improve urban life in unprecedented ways, are smart cities being imagined and designed in ways that are actually inspiring and truly innovative? This project examines the proposals and approaches of Sidewalk Labs’ designs for Quayside, located in Toronto Canada, and asks how intelligent, really, is the city the propose. Sidewalk Labs (the city-building subsidiary of Alphabet, Google’s parent company), in partnership with Waterfront Toronto (a government-appointed nonprofit development corporation), claims to be reimagining cities from the internet up.” But is their …


A Material Affair: The Intimacy Between Materials And Affective Space, Rex Hughes, John Mikesh 2019 Syracuse University

A Material Affair: The Intimacy Between Materials And Affective Space, Rex Hughes, John Mikesh

Architecture Senior Theses

This thesis argues that an architecture embracing innate material qualities, deployed for choreographed sensory experiences, will open a more intimate dialogue between humans and their environment. This thesis is rooted in the idea that the most powerful experiences are those that stimulate all the senses at once. This is illustrated by architect Lisa Heschong, who explains that fire fascinates humans because it glows, crackles, smells of smoke, and gives off heat. This intimate sensory experience provides an archetype for the way users may be seduced into engaging affective environments through haptic materials.

In an investigation of material qualities (density, hardness, …

The objective of this specific work is to produce and represent spatiotemporal analysis and architectural evidence of the unlawful systematic destruction of Arab neighborhoods and villages in the disputed territories—here in relation to the continuous power shifts in the disputed internal boundaries between the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) and Iraqi Federal Government in Iraq. The increasing availability and advancements …


On Nothing, Rutuja Ganoo 2019 Syracuse University

On Nothing, Rutuja Ganoo

Architecture Senior Theses

In southeast Asian philosophy, artha, kama, dharma and moksha are said to be the four major goals in a Hindu's life. While artha (monetary) and karma (sensory) are physical and psychological, moksha is the ultimate destination. In this worldview, the soul goes through endless cycles o existence on various planes, until it grows spiritually; moksha is the release of the soul from the cycle of birth, life and death to the ultimate reunion with "god". The entity being released from this "binding," the soul, is said to work symbiotically with the human body to engage in worldly learning and experience. …


An Argument For Ornament: Louder Than Status Quo, Marda Zenawi 2019 Syracuse University

An Argument For Ornament: Louder Than Status Quo, Marda Zenawi

Architecture Senior Theses

There is a pervasive silence in architecture today - one created by methodological monolingualism, the limits of core and shell logics, and the emphasis on marketable iconicity. Broad moves like curtain walls, fixtures like mullions, or comfort systems like air conditioning become an assumed part of the environment. This is problematic because these artifacts are heavy with ideology. Their ubiquitousness and the complacency in their use leave us with an increasingly seamless and self-similar global architecture, such that it becomes a dogmatically assumed part of the environment - such that we have no awareness of what we subscribe to by …
