Abstract

AbstractThe purpose of this research is to study the intersection between 21st century architecture and infrastructure, understood as a physical fact as well as an abstract concept, through the notion of Infrastructure Space. Since the 1960s, the definition of infrastructure has been changed towards a conceptual version, moving among different disciplines, from Engineering to Humanities. At present, its material condition as an urban system is overwritten with its potentiality, as a transdisciplinary tool, which can explain economic, political, sociological and urban phenomena. Its double material-conceptual condition and its capacity to operate in multiple scales oblige us to expand once again the meaning of infrastructure, opening up to the concept of infrastructure space. This paper hypothesis relies on the fact that infrastructure space is a practical and theoretical device, extracted from infrastructural logics, which is consolidated as a design instrument in contemporary architecture. This new architecture seeks no longer to reproduce the infrastructural model but its logic. This allows us to apply them in the project with independence with respect to the scale and the program involved. To prove this, two concepts of infrastructure and infrastructure space will be postulated, which will be compared to several architectural works in order to show specific project strategies derived from this relation, resulting in infrastructure space.
基础设施空间:21世纪的建筑实践与运营逻辑
摘要本研究的目的是通过基础设施空间的概念来研究21世纪建筑与基础设施之间的交集,既可以理解为物理事实,也可以理解为抽象概念。自20世纪60年代以来,基础设施的定义已经转变为一个概念版本,在不同的学科之间移动,从工程到人文。目前,它作为一个城市系统的物质条件被其潜力所覆盖,作为一个跨学科的工具,可以解释经济、政治、社会学和城市现象。它的双重物质概念条件及其在多个尺度上的运作能力迫使我们再次扩展基础设施的意义,打开基础设施空间的概念。本文的假设基于这样一个事实:基础设施空间是从基础设施逻辑中提取出来的一种实践和理论装置,它作为一种设计工具在当代建筑中得到巩固。这种新的体系结构寻求的不再是复制基础设施模型,而是复制其逻辑。这使我们能够在项目中独立地应用它们,并考虑到所涉及的规模和项目。为了证明这一点,我们将假设基础设施和基础设施空间两个概念,并将其与几个建筑作品进行比较,以展示基于这种关系衍生出的具体项目策略,从而产生基础设施空间。
