摘要

不断增长的人口和城市生活正在增加为21世纪及以后规划和设计的新城市和新区域的数量。由日本丰田公司开发的“编织城市”这个名字来源于其概念和设计,在地面上有三种类型的街道相互交织,一种用于自动驾驶,一种用于行人,一种用于个人移动车辆。还将有一条用于运输货物的地下道路。该社区计划从大约360名居民开始,主要是老年人、有小孩的家庭和发明家,并计划发展到2000人或更多,其中包括丰田的员工。除了规划许多使城市可持续发展的措施外,还将优先考虑人们的健康和福祉。编织城被设想为一个由氢燃料电池系统供电的现实生活实验室,供人们生活、工作和娱乐的地方。在沙特阿拉伯,一个比“编织城”规模大得多的城市Neom正在建设中,计划于2030年完工。两座城市都将使用各种高科技,但也将与自然联系在一起,并声称是对人们的健康和福祉有益的地方。这些城市会像一份过于复杂的品尝菜单,没有深度的味道,还是像预期的那样为日常生活带来深刻的感官体验?Indy Johar是一位创新的建筑师,他建立了暗物质实验室,在接受《金融时报》采访时(2022年11月5日至6日),他谈到了重新想象我们的世界的必要性,从一个简化逻辑已经渗透到我们思维模式中的世界,到一个在哲学、社会、物质、伦理、价值或成本层面上更多地涉及纠缠和相互依赖的世界。我们常常考虑成本而忽略价值。很多时候,我们在孤立的环境中工作,忽视了事物之间丰富的相互联系。对于建筑和城市来说,用户才是关键。叙利亚建筑师Marva Al-Sabouni表示,建筑是唯一一种不从其创造者那里获得价值的艺术形式,而是从其使用者那里获得价值(皇家艺术学会杂志2020年第3期第41页)。没有道歉,我回到2017年伦敦格伦费尔的悲剧,因为我刚刚收到了皮特·Apps的书《让我看看尸体:我们是如何让格伦费尔发生的》(OneWorld 2022)。我相信这本书读起来一定很有趣。他的结论是,这是一个企业结构的故事,它让人们放弃了自己的良心和能动性,只考虑销售额和利润率。这是一个悲伤的反思和悲剧性的结果,表明我们在日常规划、设计和建设方面的能力是多么有限,但这是一个学习如何不再让这种事情发生的机会。随着世界大事扰乱燃料市场,能源成本在许多人心中是最重要的,但正如所有缔约方会议气候变化会议所显示的那样,能源选择是一个主要问题。可再生燃料经济正在加速发展,但首先,我们使用和浪费了多少能源?玛格丽特·哈里斯(Margaret Harris)在《家,绿色的家》(2022年11月《物理世界》)一篇文章中指出,不仅是家庭,我们大教堂的管理者也在考虑他们的运营成本,以及在气候变化中发挥作用,毕竟他们管理着巨大的空间,入住率变化很大。格洛斯特大教堂是2016年第一个在屋顶上安装太阳能光伏电池板的教堂,现在巴斯修道院可能也会这样做,它已经利用罗马浴场的热量作为地热供暖系统的来源。英国约2550万套房屋的年龄意味着存量住房带来了巨大的问题:76%是1980年以前的,20%是1919年以前的。其中一半的房屋隔热效果很差,自2012年以来,房屋升级率有所下降,房主这样做的动力不足。《英国医学杂志》(BMJ 2012:379:02794)报道了最近一名儿童因家中霉菌导致水肿死亡的事件,并对住房政策的价值提出了质疑。因此,出于能源和健康的原因,人们需要隔热良好的房屋,这使得它成为一个紧迫的问题。此外,人们经常引用英国是世界上隔热效果最差的房屋

Editorial
Increasing populations and urban living are increasing the number of new cities and regions being planned and designed for the twenty-first century and beyond. The Woven City being developed by Toyota in Japan takes its name from both its concept and design, with three types of streets interwovenwith each other on the ground level, one dedicated to automated driving, one to pedestrians and one to personal mobility vehicles. There will also be an underground road used to transport freight. The community is planned to start with around 360 residents, mainly senior citizens, families with young children and inventors and is planned to grow to a population of 2000 or more individuals, including Toyota employees. There will be a strong priority given to people’s health and well-being besides many measures will be planned which will make the city sustainable. Woven City is envisaged as a place where people live, work, and play in a real-world living laboratory, powered by a hydrogen fuel cell system. In Saudi Arabia, a city named Neom, on a much larger scale than the Woven City, is being constructed, aiming for completion in 2030. Both cities will use high technology of all kinds but also connect with Nature and claim to be places that will be good for people’s health and well-being. Will these cities be like an overcomplicated tasting menu with no depth of flavour or as intended bring deep sensory experiences to everyday living? Indy Johar, an innovative architect who set up Dark Matter Labs, on being interviewed in the Financial Times (November 5/6/ 2022) spoke about the need to reimagine our world from one in which reductionist logic has pervaded our mindsets to one which is much more about entanglements and interdependencies at philosophical, social, material, ethical, value or cost levels. Too often, we consider costs and ignore value. Too often, we work in silos blinkered to the enriching interconnections between things. With buildings and cities, it is the user which is key. The Syrian architect Marva Al-Sabouni states that – architecture is the only form of art that does not take its value from its makers, rather it takes it from its users (Royal Society of Arts Journal Issue 3 2020 page 41). With no apology, I return to the Grenfell tragedy in London in 2017 as I have just received the book Show me the Bodies: How we let Grenfell Happen by Pete Apps (OneWorld 2022). It will make an interesting read, I am sure. He concludes it is a story of corporate structures that allowed human beings to abandon their own conscience and sense of agency and to think only about sales and profit margins.
